100 Years After the San Francisco Quake


April 18 marks the centennial of one of America's greatest catastrophes, the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and fire.

The economic and cultural hub of the West, San Francisco was forever changed by the massive earthquake and resulting fires that struck early in the morning on April 18, 1906. One hundred years later, the city remembers the disaster and recovery.
