Description
This circa 1930 postcard shows the Southern Pacific passenger depot at Fifth and I streets. Completed for 2.3 million dollars, the station opened on February 27, 1926, with the Sacramento's Whiskerinos and Whiskerettes presenting a historic pageant, along with a speech by then-governor Friend Richardson. The structure was designed by the San Francisco-based architectural firm of Bliss and Faville.
