1095 Market was one of the only buildings standing after the devasting 1906 earthquake.
The Grant Building, built in 1904, has ceramic walls 2.5 feet thick and
withstood unscathed the earthquakes of 1906 (see photo) and 1989.
Shaping San Francisco, a community history project, was founded in the Grant Building in 1994.
In the late 2010s the building was gutted and renovated and converted into a Japanese-owned Yotel.
