Notes
  • Significance: Constructed in 1877, the Crocker Fence is the only remnant left of Charles Crocker's Nob Hill mansion, considered one of the grandest in San Francixco during the 19th century. The fence is a rare, surviving example of a stone and cast-iron fence that typically surrounded the great 19th-century mansion in San Francisco, and is an excellent example of Victorian design with its intricate cast-iron and polished, sculpted granite. Charles Crocker, a man of statewide significance, was one of the so-called "Big Four" who built the western half of the transcontinental railroad. Crocker's work with the railroad, real estate speculation and other business ventures made him one of the wealthiest men in the United States during the 19th century.
