Description
Numerous cars are parked at the curb in this J Street view. The Welcome Hotel at 221 J is an historic building, erected in October of 1855 by Milton S. Latham, a pioneer attorney for Sacramento and El Dorado Counties. Latham became a Congressman (1851-56); Governor of California (1860), and a U.S. Senator from California (1860-1863). The buildings at 223-225 J are vacant at the time this photograph was taken. The Big Mug Caf (231 J Street) was listed in the 1961 directory.
