from the project manager of the City Hall seismic retro fit project concerning the fire at San Francisco City Hall on February 13, 1998. The San Francisco Fire Department did an excellent job. They acted quickly, efficiently and, given the circumstances, with great respect for the historic fabric of City Hall. After preliminary analysis, the damage is mostly due to the necessary actions of the Fire Department personnel in their efforts to control the spread of the fire. The costs of repair and delay, if necessary, should be borne by the insurers. It is too early to tell what the cost or time implications may be.
