Russ Building, Gothic Revival skyscraper in Financial District, San Francisco, United States.
The Russ Building rises 133 meters with 32 floors, featuring Gothic-style masonry and decorative elements throughout its limestone and granite exterior.
From its construction in 1927 until 1964, the Russ Building maintained its position as the highest structure in San Francisco alongside the PacBell Building.
The building served as the central location for major venture capital firms before the development of Sand Hill Road in the 1980s.
Located at 235 Montgomery Street, the Russ Building contains 15 elevators and includes the first indoor parking garage built in San Francisco.
Architect George W. Kelham incorporated medieval architectural elements into this modern office tower, creating a blend of historical and commercial design.
