Historic Sentinel Building, Transamerica Pyramid towering behind.

San Francisco, California, 2000

This historic building houses the Italian restraunt "Cafe Niebaum" on the ground floor, which is owned by Francis Ford Coppola.

The building is made of metal, and is triangular in shape, like the famous Gridiron Building In New York City. The green color is from oxidized copper cladding on the outside.

Legend has it this is where the famous Caesar Salad was invented.
