These two buildings, constructed in 1866 and 1876 by Joel Eaton, are the earliest examples of the second generation of buildings comprising Lodi’s downtown business district. The first generation of buildings that flanked Main Street beginning in the 1850s were smaller, wood-framed structures that were used for a short period then replaced. The 1866 portion of the building was used as a general store with a community meeting hall on the second floor. For many years, this building was home to the beloved Weber’s Bakery which was in business for 93 years before closing in 2014. The 1876 portion for several years housed an opera house and storage for sets used in sundry performances.
