This building was built in the 1950s by the Claremont Ward. It was dedicated 1955. The Claremont Ward was renamed Oakland 5th Ward in 1965. The ward dissolved in 1970 and the building was sold to a Christian church – possibly the Unification Church (Moonies). It was subsequently sold to Hare Krishna organization.
