The building was red-tagged because of the structural and water damage.
“This is soul-crushing,” said San Francisco Recreation and Park General Manager Phil Ginsburg in a press release. “The Trocadero and Stern Grove are San Francisco treasures. It will take political leadership, resources and community resolve to put the Trocadero back together again.”
Officially recognized as a city landmark last year, the Trocadero was built in 1892 as a roadhouse that offered dancing and roulette. The clubhouse was once operated by sugar magnate Adolph Spreckles, and also served as a hideout for notorious political grafter Abe Ruef in 1907 as he faced trial. Stern Grove has been closed to the public since late last year because storms have caused numerous trees to fall or become unstable.
The Trocadero, a popular spot for weddings and other events, had been available by reservation on the weekends. Parks officials will be contacting those with upcoming events to offer them alternative venues or refunds. Copyright © 2023 Bay City News, Inc. All rights reserved.
