score:1
Accepted answer
According to LeCount & Strong's San Francisco City Directory for the Year 1854, the U.S. Land Commission met in John Parrott's "Iron Building" at 148 California Street.
According to Igler's Industrial Cowboys (2001):
... the four floors of his Iron Building conveniently housed the clerks, archives, and officers of the U.S. Board of Land Claims Commissioners. For all practical purposes, Parrott's building was the San Francisco land office.
