The scene:
The Museum lives in the historical landmark at 1 Grant Avenue, a 1910 bank building nestled in the heart of San Francisco's Union Square. Entering the building, guests are welcomed into our Shop and full-service ice cream counter. From the intricate dome ceiling, standing pillars, and floating sprinkle lights, the building has been inspired by Roman architecture, with a MOIC twist. And of course, the lobby area is completely decked out in our patented Pantone 1905C Pink color!
