"The PG&E Mission Substation is a beautiful 1948 ultramodern building located at 8th and Mission.
"In 1948, the magazine Architect & Engineer hailed the building, designed by San Francisco architect William Merchant, as “ultra modern.” The magazine noted that the substation’s “new 110,000-volt underground transmission cables to the station will bring high voltage power into the heart of San Francisco for the first time in history."
