The coordinates are for the plaque. This building was constructed in the late 1920s. It's located next to the center of campus. It's a three story building with a small basement used as a pharmacy. Basements are a luxury in California as this is the first time I've seen one living here all my life. The building has lots of frieze art especially near the from entrance on the east side of the building.
Year built or dedicated as indicated on the structure or plaque: 1927
