Located at the highest point of downtown San Francisco, on fog-free days the Top of the Mark has views of the financial district, Chinatown, North Beach, The San Francisco Bay, and of Grace Cathedral and Huntington Park. HistoryThe Mark Hopkins Hotel was built by George D. Smith on the site of the old Mark Hopkins mansion, which had burned down following the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. The hotel was dedicated in 1926, and the penthouse suite was rented exclusively to Daniel C. Jackling, reputedly at {{US$|1250|1926|round=-3}} per month,[1] until he moved to his house in Woodside in 1936.[2] In 1939, shortly after emerging from a 1933 bankruptcy, George Smith convinced the trustees of the Mark to spend {{US$|110000|1936|round=-3}} to convert the 11-room penthouse on the hotel's 19th floor into a glass-walled cocktail lounge,[2] which became known as the Top of The Mark.[3] Marjorie Trumbull won fame in the 1940s for her radio interviews of celebrities broadcast on KSFO and conducted from the Top of the Mark.[4][5] During World War II, when San Francisco was a major transit point for troops going to the Pacific Theater, servicemen traditionally had a farewell drink before shipping out while watching the sun set over the Golden Gate Bridge.[6][7] The northwest corner was known as "Weeper's Corner" after the wives and girlfriends who would gather there for their final look at departing ships.[8] A new tradition was established during the Korean War, when squadron members would sponsor a "squadron bottle" to be kept available at the bar. Each member would sign and date the label after claiming a free drink, and the man who took the last drink would keep the signed bottle and purchase a new bottle. By the end of the Korean War, thirty-two squadron bottles were in use.[2][9] Present dayThe Top of the Mark features over 100 variations on the martini.[10][11] The bar remains popular today, featuring dancing and live music most days of the week. During the December holiday season, the Top of the Mark offers an afternoon tea service.[12] GalleryReferences1. ^{{cite news |url=http://cdnc.ucr.edu/cgi-bin/cdnc?a=d&d=DS19641125.2.39 |title=A "We Love You' Fete for Phyllis; And in SF, a Party at the Mark |author=Christopher, Lee |newspaper=Desert Sun |date=25 November 1964 |accessdate=27 June 2016}} {{commonscat}}2. ^1 2 {{cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=r3gcAAAAIBAJ&sjid=KGUEAAAAIBAJ&pg=7252%2C2472210 |title=Memories of Remembering: Famous 'Top of the Mark' Holds 20th Anniversary |author=Erickson, Leif |agency=AP |newspaper=Sarasota Herald-Tribune |date=11 May 1959 |accessdate=27 June 2016}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.intercontinentalmarkhopkins.com/history.aspx|website=InterContinental Mark Hopkins|title=A Short Account of Its Long and Illustrious History}} 4. ^{{cite news |url=http://cdnc.ucr.edu/cgi-bin/cdnc?a=d&d=SN19461107.2.69 |title=Radio Broadcast Scene |author= |date=7 November 1946 |newspaper=Sausalito News |accessdate=27 June 2016}} 5. ^{{cite news |url=http://articles.latimes.com/1993-09-29/news/mn-40103_1_radio-interviews |title=Marjorie Trumbull; Radio and TV Interviewer |date=29 September 1993 |author= |newspaper=Los Angeles Times |accessdate=27 June 2016}} 6. ^{{cite journal |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=904EAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA75#v=onepage&q&f=false |title=Life Visits the Top of the Mark |author= |journal=LIFE |date=31 July 1944 |pages=75–79 |issn= |volume=17 |number=5 |publisher=TIME Inc. |location=Chicago, Illinois |accessdate=27 June 2016}} 7. ^{{cite news |url=http://cdnc.ucr.edu/cgi-bin/cdnc?a=d&d=DS19761220.2.69 |title=Celebration With Style-The Mark: Fifty Years Of Elegance |author=Leighty, John |agency=UPI |newspaper=Desert Sun |date=20 December 1976 |accessdate=27 June 2016}} 8. ^{{cite news |url=https://www.bostonglobe.com/lifestyle/travel/2015/10/09/high-watering-hole-and-its-place-history/6O4pSzB7OKmJ6b3pV7jQpK/story.html |title=A high-up, San Francisco watering hole on the 19th floor |author=Chapman, Keith |date=10 October 2015 |newspaper=Boston Globe |accessdate=27 June 2016}} 9. ^{{cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=XBQfAAAAIBAJ&sjid=EJsEAAAAIBAJ&pg=4124%2C2039829 |title=The Changing Scene: Top Of The Mark Revisited |author=Dixon, Kenneth L. |date=16 February 1965 |newspaper=The Tuscaloosa News |accessdate=27 June 2016}} 10. ^{{cite web | author= | title=Top of the Mark – History| url=http://www.intercontinentalmarkhopkins.com/top-of-the-mark.aspx | website=InterContinental Mark Hopkins | year=2009 | accessdate=2010-03-04}} 11. ^{{cite news |url=http://www.sfexaminer.com/discovering-the-martinis-bay-area-roots/ |title=Discovering the martini's Bay Area roots |author=Lovato, Kimberley |date=31 January 2015 |newspaper=San Francisco Examiner |accessdate=27 June 2016}} 12. ^{{cite news |url=http://archives.sfexaminer.com/sanfrancisco/tis-the-season-for-afternoon-tea/Content?oid=2913833 |title=Tis the season for afternoon tea |author=Lovato, Kimberley |date=14 December 2014 |newspaper=San Francisco Examiner |accessdate=27 June 2016}} External links
