The original 10-story, structure was designed by Burnham and Root/D.H.

Named for early San Francisco financial tycoon, Darius Ogden Mills, it is regarded as the city's second skyscraper, after the Chronicle Building.
Completed in 1932 at 220 Bush Street, Mills Tower is a 22-story, annex designed by George W. Kelham and Lewis Parsons Hobart.
The Mills Building is home to several major financial firms, including SeatMe, Pocket Gems, New York Stock Exchange, and Newedge.
