One Bush Plaza, (also called the Crown Zellerbach Building) is an office building which rises 308 ft (94 m) up from Bush and Battery Streets at Market Street in San Francisco's Financial District [2]. This building has 20 stories and it was completed in 1959[2].
It was the headquarters of the Crown Zellerbach Company, a large Fortune 500 forestry and paper products conglomerate (acquired in 1986 by the James River Company, which in turn became a part of Georgia-Pacific in 2000). The building was the first significant downtown San Francisco structure erected in the 30 years following the start of the Great Depression, and as such was the first International Style glass curtain wall building in San Francisco.
The architectural firm of this building was Skidmore, Owings, and Merrill.[1]
