Plant Rental Nob Hill
Nob Hill is a neighborhood of San Francisco, California, known for its numerous luxury hotels and historic mansions. Nob Hill has historically served as a center of San Francisco's upper class and is among the highest-income neighborhoods in the United States, as well as one of the most desirable and expensive real estate markets in the country. So naturally, plant rental nob hill is one of the prime needs for homes, offices, and special occasions.
Where does the name Nob Hill come from, you ask? Nob is a contraction of the Hindu word nabob or nawwab, remembered by VP Spiro Agnew as the Nattering Nabobs of Negativism in a speech in 1970. Nabob was a very wealthy, influential, or powerful person(s), especially a European, who has made a large fortune in India or another country of the East. San Francisco’s nobs made their fortunes in the West in the mid-1800s in gold, silver, and the Central Pacific Railroad. In the years immediately following the 1848 gold strike, the scrub-covered hill rising 376 feet above the waterfront offered an escape from the rawness and rowdiness of the boomtown below.
The paper San Francisco recalled the history of Nob Hill, “Among the first to build their mansions on the pedestal of the rich were the railroad barons known as the Big Four — Charles Crocker, Leland Stanford, Mark Hopkins, and Collis Huntington — in the 1870s. Close on their heels came the bonanza kings of the Comstock Lode, James Flood, and James G. Flair. Their architectural excesses were such that the lowlanders came in droves to stare. “The hill of palaces” was how Robert Louis Stevenson described the scene in 1882.”
The steep grade (24.8 percent on the south face) was hard on horses and millionaires alike. So the house-proud hill-dwellers installed their cable car line, the California St. R.R. Co., in 1878. It’s still in operation today.
