Twitter Takes Over City Hall For Its Holiday Party

Twitter owned San Francisco City Hall... for its holiday party.

These are fine times for Twitter, with its beautiful new office space in San Francisco's mid-Market and its market-breaking IPO -- and now it's time for a holiday party.

In the very same San Francisco City Hall which provided the company a tax break.

Twitter on Thursday rented out the Beaux Arts gem of a domed building for its Christmas party, according to documentation of the gala recorded on -- what else -- Twitter. 

A lovely time for lovely people -- but perhaps a bit "tone deaf," some have suggested.

Or, as SFist put it, "There's certainly nothing tone deaf about a company that received millions in tax breaks buying out the city's center of power for a one-off night of champagne drinking."

Right? Right.
