- Title: St. Ignatius Cathedral Spires
- Description: Built between 1910 and 1914, the St. Ignatius Church is a San Francisco landmark. The Fulton Street towers rise over 200 feet above the street. The towers are ornamented by urns and angelic figures. Often referred to as “Jesuit Baroque,” the architectural style of St. Ignatius Church is eclectic, drawing inspiration from the Italian and Spanish Baroque, and Greek and Roman classical principles. One of the most noticeable features of the exterior is the rhythmic use of massive columns and pilasters of the Ionic and Corinthian Orders. The Ionic is recognized by the spiral scrolls or volutes on either side of the capitals, while the Corinthian bears a capital enriched by carved ranks of acanthus leaves. The exterior walls are clad with about a quarter of a million buff face bricks with terra cotta used for decorative detail.
