The one-story building at 211 Fifth Street is one of the younger historic buildings in the Downtown Hollister Historic District. Built around 1940, this modest building has vertical aluminum siding, which makes me think of old science fiction movies. Check out the beautiful brick facing beneath the windows.
Hollister, California is a real town that has been around since the 1870s. Unlike the fictional town created by a corporate clothing company, Hollister is no where near a beach. The town is about 45 miles east of the Pacific Ocean. Seagulls occasionally make their way over the mountains. Hopefully, they are able to find their way back.

Great catch! Strange building for a chiropractic business.
ReplyDeleteIt is different. The style of the building makes me think of Buck Rogers, the science fiction character.
