Alhambra Apartments, San Francisco, CA
Alhambra Apartments, 860 Geary Street, San Francisco, California. This apartment building was built in 1913 in the Moorish style by native San Francisco architect James Francis Dunn.

This apartment building is a beautiful example of some of his best work. The romantic penthouse and dome of the Alhambra are where the legendary Rudolph Valentino reputedly entertained his paramours.
