Rebuilding+Ghirardelli+Square

 In May 1851, the original Ghirardelli Chocolate Factory burned down. It was rebuilt where it is now at 900 North Point Street in 1859. All the buildings in Ghirardelli Square survived the 1906 earthquake. William Roth saved Ghirardelli Square from getting torn down and replaced by an apartment building.
