Bernheim building

The Bernheim building was built on Pacific Avenue in Santa Cruz in 1875, on a lot that is now half of the joined lots occupied by the E. C. Rittenhouse Building (101 Church Street). The building was home to the retail clothing business (J. Bernheim & Co.) of Reuben, Jacob, and Carl Bernheim. Upstairs was a large rentable space known as Bernheim Hall.
