The San Fernando Building, constucted in 1906, is an
8 story stucture which holds 70 units including penthouse.
The Lobby has 22 feet ceilings.
The San Fernando is an E-shaped, eight story structure with
a basement. Its design was influenced by the Renaissance Revival
style. The building has a two story rusticated base. Eight
bays are defined by rusticated piers on Fourth Street and
there are six bays on Main Street. The Main Street facade
consists of a two story rusticated base. A plain frieze and
molded cornice girds the facade above the second story.
The second story windows are set above spandrel panels with
an incised diamond motif. All windows in the second story
level are of the pivoting type with transom above. Each consists
of a three window bay. The bays are separated by simple rusticated
piers, and are set above diamond incised spandrel panels in
the fourth, fifth and sixth stories. A denticulated cornice,
punctuated by corbels over the piers, runs above the sixth
story level. The upper two stories are an addition. They consist
of similar triple windows between piers. A dentriculated cornice
caps the building. |
