Building History
Constructed in 1903, this building was funded by F.A. Ruhl, a local business person. Originally the upper floors were used by the Druids , a men’s club, as a meeting hall, while the lower floors were used by the Stockton Paint Company, a clothing store, and a retail grocery store. Over the years, the Ruhl Building was known for union offices, dance studio, luggage shop, beauty shop, Peckler & Giovanessi Shoes and Mead’s Red Cherry Bakers and Restaurant. This building appears on the 1917 and 1950 Sanborn maps, with shops along the street and space noted as “lodge hall” in the rear.
