History of Object: Objects found in the attic of City Hall prior to renovation; three different angles of 1421/1423 Santa Clara, corner Benton, which on the photo appears to have an appliance store occupying the ground floor. The building still exists in 2020, but it appears to no longer be a storefront. There have been additional exterior changes as well (siding, windows mullions, paint job).
