Building commenced July, 1853. Completed Dec., 1853. Messrs. HALLECK, PEACHY, BILLINGS & PARK, Owners.
Dimensions :

Height four stories and basement.
THIS BUILDING is the largest and most tastefully finished on the Pacific Coast, and by its extent, solidity and architectural beauty, would attract attention in any city of the Union. It presents an unbroken facade on three streets of 400 feet.
THE FOUR STORIES OF WINDOWS above the Basement, are large and airy, and rise over the principal one in diminished and graceful proportion, with architrave, cornice, &c., to the frieze course of the building, which is marked by horizontal moulding and a beautiful frieze band, over which rises an elegant cornice, upon which all the taste and skill of the architect have been exhausted :- the whole terminating with an appropriate blocking course. The principal floor is striking by its support of pilasters with carved caps. The flat segmental arches of each opening are ornamented by a keystone bearing sculptured heads of real and imaginary characters, in semi-relievo.
THE MAIN ENTRANCE TO THE BUILDING is on Montgomery street, and is a triumph of architectural beauty. The door-way is of cut stone ;- the columns in alto-relievo, are of the Roman Doric, from the style of the Dioclesian baths at Rome. The frieze is beauti- fully sculptured, and the sunk cornice is beautified by a number of rich ornaments,-the bronzed iron doors being surmounted by a head of Washington. Besides the 28 base- ment and first story stores, this immense pile contains nearly 150 offices in its several floors,-all of which are furnished with gas, grates, &c., and with water in every hall, from an Artesian well in the court ; all the openings are provided with substantial iron shutters ; the brick walls, are of great solidity, built on piles and carefully anchored and tied. The architect, builder and director was Mr. G. P. CUMMINGS. The whole edifice is a beautiful piece of Italian architecture, and has few rivals in the oldest settled countries.
