San Francisco Chronicle
The "Chronicle" was founded by brothers Charles and M. H. de Young in 1865 as "The Daily Dramatic Chronicle", and inside of 10 years, it had the largest circulation of any newspaper west of the Mississippi River. The paper's first office was in a building at the corner of Bush and Kearney Streets. The brothers then commissioned a building from Burnham and Root at 690 Market Street at the corner of Third and Kearney Streets to be their new headquarters, in what became known as Newspaper Row. The new building, San Francisco's first skyscraper, was completed in 1889. It was damaged in the 1906 earthquake, but it was rebuilt under the direction of William Polk, Burnham's associate in San Francisco. That building, known as the "Old Chronicle Building" or the "DeYoung Building", still stands and was restored in 2007. It is an historic landmark and is the location of the Ritz-Carlton Club and Residences.
Chung Sai Yat Po
Chung Sai Yat Po (), also known as China West Daily and Zhong Sai Yat Bo was a Chinese language newspaper founded by Ng Poon Chew (伍盤照) and published in San Francisco, California from 1900 to 1951. It was a major Chinese language daily newspaper in San Francisco and helped to shape the Chinese community in San Francisco's Chinatown. The paper helped the Chinese to “break through their social and cultural isolation” to become Americans and reduced the gap between the Chinese community and mainstream American society. It was a financially independent and non-party-affiliated newspaper that cultivated discussions on community economic and social development. "Chung Sai Yat Po" was one of the longest running and most popular Chinese language daily newspapers in the United States.
