The one-story commercial building at 201 Sixth Street is another contributing edifice to the Downtown Hollister Historic District. Just like the historic building featured yesterday, this one was constructed around 1940 and has corrugated metal siding. Interestingly, the building's gable roofs are made of sheet metal. The building has two storefronts. Cheung Sheng, a popular Chinese restaurant, occupies the east side, with its entrance beneath the red dragons.
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.
