Chesnutwood's Business College was established in Santa Cruz in 1884 by J. A. Chesnutwood, located in F. A. Hihn's Alta Building on Pacific Avenue. A year later the school moved to larger quarters in a new Hihn building next door. In 1906, Chesnutwood's merged with Heald's Business College, under which name it continues today.
