"The building’s original architect was William H. Weeks. By the late 1910s, William H. Weeks was known to have designed over 500 buildings in California, from as far north as Crescent City to as far south as Santa Barbara.""The architectural form is Spanish Colonial Revival, and Weeks favored subdued ornamentation in his designs during this period."(Submitted on August 31, 2022, by Joseph Alvarado of Livermore, California.)
