to read a new history
of Weinstock's, as
published by
The History Press

Weinstock's occupied an imposing building on K
Street, which, while only 3 stories in height, featured
an imposing arched entryway.


Weinstock's building superseded an earlier store,
which had, in 1908, replaced the original store
that was destroyed by fire in 1903.


Weinstock's was modernized over the years, and
became a landmark in downtown Sacramento.


Weinstock, Lubin & Co.
