History

A brick building with 7-stories was in the same location, owned by the Italian American Bank, and was destroyed during the 1906 San Francisco earthquake.

The 1907, a 2-story replacement building was designed by the architecture firm Howard & Galloway and built during a period of reconstruction in the neighborhood, using steel reinforced concrete, bricks, and granite. The Italian American Bank has a basement level.

The building was subject to facadism by architectural firm Roger Owen Boyer and Associates, and it was combined with the neighboring Borel & Co. building (1908), in order to create 456 Montgomery Plaza.
