Wheeler Building
The Wheeler Brothers Store was founded by Lester Wheeler and his brother Verne in 1924, and was originally across the street. In 1928 they moved to this location (at left) eventually replacing the smaller store and a saloon next to it with a hand-built brick building in 1938. the support posts and the floor are hewn from virgin red fir, and the basement still houses the well that once provided natural spring water to customers.
Marker is on Main Street west of California Highway 49, on the left when traveling east.
