NO. 80 MONTGOMERY BLOCK - This is the site of San Francisco's first fireproof building, erected in 1853 by Henry Wager Halleck. It was the headquarters for many outstanding lawyers, financiers, writers, actors, and artists. James King of William, editor of the Bulletin, died here on May 14, 1856 after being shot by James Casey. This building escaped destruction in the fire of 1906.

Once the copyvio problems are settled, the Monkey Block article should be merged here and made into a redirect. -- Mikeblas 18:21, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Desperately seeking organizing
This article jumps all over the place, reading like it was composed by copying paragraphs from other sources and jumbling them together. This may be why there are no footnotes. I have tried to force some semblance of organization on it, but don't have the time to continue. Perhaps someone with more time and a set of solid references can improve it. --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 22:52, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
