Description
Viewed from I Street in 1961 is the Confucius Church. Located at the Sixth and I streets, the recently built structure cost $600,000 and contained a gymnasium, auditorium (seating 550 people), and Chinese-language school. The project – designed by the Berkeley architectural firm of Chan, Jee and Low – was funded by donations from the local Chinese-American community and interested donors throughout the country. The church and school were first organized in 1908 at 218 I St. The California Fruit Building is in the background.
