San Francisco Fire to commemorate 118th anniversary of the Great 1906 Earthquake

The San Francisco Fire Department said they will be honoring the 118th anniversary of the Great Earthquake and Fire of 1906 on Thursday, April 18 in an annual ceremony. 

The event will be held at the famed Lotta’s Fountain, where Market, Geary and Kearny streets meet in downtown San Francisco. The fountain emerged as a gathering spot for families and to search for lost loved ones, being one of the few landmarks that survived the earthquake.
