4826-24 Telegraph 2019

Description:
4826 (on left) and 4824 Telegraph Avenue (looking east), Temescal district, Oakland, Calif. Two apartments are over the storefront. The building on the left was owned by the barber, Joseph Basso (c.1870-1953). In the 1920s, the commercial space was home to a dry goods store (where Bosso's mother, Eil Bosso, worked), and later became Breschi's Department Store. [from Don Hausler and Ray Raineri notes] The facades of two buildings were later remodeled in the Moderne style, and the first floor exteriors have gone through subsequent redesigns.
