Built in 1914, the building was designed by Willis Polk. Its sculpted terra cotta exterior with Baroque ornamentation and handcrafted brass and Italian marble interior are a noted example of neoclassical architecture.

Its unusual shape was dictated by the site, which is an asymmetric polygon, and since a neighboring structure was torn down in 1967, exposing one flank, it is now even more idiosyncratic and striking.

The Hobart Building was designated as a landmark by the City of San Francisco in 1983.
