former San Francisco Stock Exchange, Exterior Sculptures

The final art works for the former Stock Exchange building (Miller & Pflueger, 1929-30), two large pylons place at either end of the Pine Street façade, were completed by Ralph Stackpole.

The gray Yosemite granite pylons, one depicting male figures, the other female figures, were unveiled on New Year's Eve 1932. Stackpole, Timothy Pfluger, and Angelo Rossi (Mayor of San Francisco) took part in the unveiling ceremony.
