San Francisco is said to have the largest collection of Victorian architecture anywhere, despite the fact that the heart of the city's Victorian collection, 514 downtown blocks, was destroyed in the 1906 earthquake and fire.
Of the 48,000 structures built during the glory years of Victorian architecture (1850-1915) in this city, about 8,000 survive with their historic facades intact--"painted ladies" rejuvenated into classy homes, hotels, restaurants, offices and shops.
