Notes
  • Significance: This modest structure is a rare surviving example of the typical late 19th century false front wooden store buildings that were once common in Palo Alto and throughout Santa Clara valley. It possesses a high degree of architectural integrity inside and out. The store was built for German immigrant Alphonso Emperger in or about the year 1900, and has served as a neighborhood grocery since that time. Its future, however, is uncertain.
