Matson Building, Renaissance Revival office building in Financial District, San Francisco, US.
The Matson Building features a terra cotta exterior divided into three sections with sixteen stories at 215 Market Street in San Francisco.
Between 1922 and 1924, architects Bliss & Faville constructed this building as headquarters for Matson Navigation Company, connecting West Coast and Hawaii trade.
The building served as mainland offices for three of Hawaii's Big Five corporations, establishing strong commercial connections between California and Hawaiian businesses.
The building received a matching annex between 1945 and 1947 to expand office space, maintaining its architectural consistency with the original structure.
The exterior incorporates extensive terra cotta decorative elements throughout the lower and upper sections, reflecting classical Renaissance Revival design principles.
