Description
Photograph of San Francisco earthquake damage, showing ruins of the Masonic Temple on Post and Montgomery Streets, 1906. Several people in dark outfits, some in horse-drawn carriages on the left and right, observe the damaged building from the foreground. The entire roof as well as large portions of the exterior walls has crumbled. The glass in the tall, arched windows has busted out. More damaged buildings can be seen in the background.
