We’ve Moved!

Garavaglia Architecture, Inc. has relocated our offices to the historic Hobart Building in downtown San Francisco.

We are excited to inform you that as of June 2010, our new address is:

582 Market St. Suite 1800
San Francisco, CA 94104
P: 415.391.9633
F: 415.391.9647

The Hobart building was completed in 1914 by the famed architect Willis Polk, and is easily one of San Francisco’s most recognizable historic landmarks along Market Street. From the sculpted terra cotta exterior to the handcrafted brass and Italian marble interior, the building is a stunning example of Classical revival architecture.

As we approach our 25th year in business, we found it necessary to movie our offices to a larger space to accommodate our growing firm. This space will allow us to continue to expand our staff to better serve your needs.

Garavaglia Architecture Inc. will continue to provide innovative and cost effective solutions for all your architecture and planning needs. From project inception through completion, we provide a full range of services balancing your objectives with the needs of each unique resource.
