San Francisco City Hall's Dome Taller than the U.S. Capitol

San Francisco City Hall, completed in 1915 following the 1906 earthquake, features a dome that rises to a height slightly greater than that of the United States Capitol dome. The Beaux-Arts civic building's dome is a prominent feature of the city skyline and houses an ornate interior rotunda used for public ceremonies and events. The building continues to serve as the seat of municipal government and as a historic landmark in downtown San Francisco.
