Life Without Life Without Buildings
I know nothing about the city, so if anyone has some sight-seeing suggestions (architectural or otherwise), please let me know!
...and congrats to London on the 2012 Olympics!

About
Life Without Buildings is the love child of James Stamp and a New Orleans summer. It's concerned with all things Architectural, but believes that all things are architectural...at least most things, anyway.
"...Don't get me wrong they [blogs] can be great. There is, for example, this architectural blog, Life Without Buildings, run by Jimmie (sic) Stamp"
"...architectural in nature, but not in an Ayn Rand sort of way."

Outside of the obvious (Alcatraz, Haight/Ashbury, Golden Gate Park w/H&dM's museum under construction, Portman's Embarcadero, Palace of Fine Arts, Botta's Modern Art Museum, etc):
I would check out Stanley Saitowitz's two big housing projects there: 2002 Third Street and Yerba Buena Lofts. They should be easy to find.
There's Julie Morgan's Chapel of the Chimes in Oakland (4499 Piedmont).
FLLW did a store near the main plaza downtown where they filmed The Conversation (love that film). Can't remember the name but it's not hard to find.
And if you're a Hitchcock fan, the church from Vertigo with the blank white wall is a pretty cool place. Mission Delores (324 Dolores at 16th St) is also the oldest existing building in San Francisco.
San Fran's a great place. Have fun!
Enjoy the trip, duckfart.
