History of the building
The evolution of the American Industrial Center has its roots beginning as far back as 1915. American Can Company began construction on the first part of the 3rd Street complex in San Francisco. Stretching from 20th Street to 23rd Street, and completed in stages until finished in 1955, American Can employed thousands of men and women in the manufacture of cans and bottles for West Coast canneries. The plant was shut down in 1969, and purchased in 1975 by Angelo Markoulis. The complex quickly went from a vacant 800,000+ square foot cavern, to a home for several warehousing facilities along with a few industrial users. By 1985 American Industrial Center had gone from having 35-40 large tenants, to spaces for a "small community" of 300+ businesses ranging from architects to warehousing and everything in between.
