The San Francisco Ferry Building is a historic transportation hub and marketplace located on the Embarcadero in San Francisco, California. Completed in 1898, the iconic building features a distinctive clock tower modeled after the 12th-century Giralda bell tower in Seville, Spain. It originally served as the primary gateway for ferries arriving from across the San Francisco Bay. Today, it houses a vibrant marketplace offering a variety of artisanal foods, local produce, and specialty shops, while still serving as a terminal for ferries connecting to various destinations around the Bay Area.
