Overview

Coit Tower is a 210-foot Art Deco tower on Telegraph Hill in San Francisco, built in 1933 with a bequest from Lillie Hitchcock Coit and offering 360-degree views of the city, the bay and both bridges. Inside, its lobby has a remarkable set of Depression-era Social Realism fresco murals painted by 25 artists. The tower is reached by a steep walk up the Filbert or Greenwich Steps, or by Muni bus 39, and parking at the top is very limited. There is a fee for the elevator to the observation deck. It is on the National Register of Historic Places.
