I don't know exactly why... the design just appeals to me... and being a beginner rock-hound, the "Granite Lady" name also appeals!

That "engine room" photo is amazing... look at those pillars! I wonder how many engines like that sat in such impressive surroundings, and if it is now long-gone.

@Nells250: Thanks for sharing the old SF Mint images and 1906 US Treasury Report - I always enjoy glimpses into a different time!
