Today we visited the Civic Centre in downtown SF for a field trip. The Civic Centre has an amazing history, having cost $6 million to build at the turn of the 20th century, only to be half destroyed in the big earthquake that hit the city in 1906. Think about how much $6 million back in 1900 is worth today? It is also the site where Harvey Milk, the city’s first opening gay elected official was assassinated by Dan White in 1978. Today it is still a government building whilst also being a popular place for wedding ceremonies.
I found this bridesmaid reflecting on the day.
