SOUTH FACADE
The west end of the south façade features an area of brick veneer cladding under the partial section of canopy. A horizontal opening for a window beneath the canopy has been infilled. The center of the façade is blank. The east end of the façade features the shed-roof profile of a canopy supported on square metal columns.

EAST (REAR) FACADE
The east façade features stucco cladding (Figure 7). Its south half steps back several feet behind the north half of the façade. The south half of the façade features a covered outdoor dining area with a shed roof supported on square metal columns at its south end. Two partially glazed doors occupy either side of the center section of the façade. A horizontal fixed window covered with a security grille occupies the north end the façade. The north half of the rear east façade features two partially glazed doors, one at the south end of the façade and one at its center.

NORTH FAÇADE
The north façade abuts the adjacent building at 220-222 N. Wilson Way. Only an upper portion of brick wall is visible above the flat roof of the adjacent building.

Surrounding Neighborhood
The neighborhood along N. Wilson Way consists of commercial, industrial, and warehouse facilities dating from the early through the late twentieth century. These consist of buildings serving automotive, agricultural, and local small-scale retail enterprises (Figure 8 and Figure 9). Several ornate early buildings occupy the block to the south between Channel and Weber Street, specifically the Renaissance Revival Lido Hotel at 111 N. Wilson Way and the Neoclassical Growers Building at 122 N. Wilson Way, both of which were built by and for the area’s early twentieth-century Italian community (Figure 10 and Figure 11). The blocks south of N. Wilson Way consist of remnant railroad and warehouses and diffuse areas of housing (Figure 12 and Figure 13).

IV. HISTORIC CONTEXT
Early Stockton History
Captain Charles M. Weber built the first structures on the site that would become Stockton in 1847, calling the settlement Tuleberg.3 Like many cities in Northern California, Stockton grew from a small, rural outpost into a booming city as a result of the Gold Rush. Tuleberg’s advantageous location at the head of the Stockton Channel, a tributary of the San Joaquin River, transformed it into a gateway and supply center for miners and supplies traveling from San Francisco to the gold fields.4 In 1849, Major R. P. Hammond completed a survey that laid out Tuleberg’s first street grid between Weber Avenue, Center Street, Main Street, and Commerce Street.5 With California statehood in 1850, the settlement was incorporated as a city and renamed Stockton. Between 1850 and 1855, the population grew from approximately 1,000 to 7,000 individuals. Residential districts developed to the southwest and north of the commercial core. 6
By the mid-1850s, as the Gold Rush diminished, Stockton became a center for Central Valley agriculture. New industries emerged to process and transport wheat, grains, fruits and vegetables and to manufacture agricultural tools and equipment.
7 Shipyards, iron foundries, warehouses, and
factories were established to supply deep water shipping along the Channel and support various railroad companies.8 By the 1890s, Stockton had grown to approximately 23,000 residents.9 With a growing population and burgeoning economy, Stockton experienced a building boom from the 1880s through the early 1930s. The majority of the city’s downtown and nearby residential areas were constructed in this period. Pressure to develop land outside the flood zone of the Stockton Channel pushed some development toward the east side of the city in the area of the subject property (Figure 14).

Many of Stockton’s late nineteenth and early twentieth century citizens were immigrants including people of Chinese, Filipino, Japanese, and Sikh origin who became the main labor force in the city’s packing houses, farms, and domestic industries. Italians also moved to the city in large numbers in in the decades after 1890. By 1940, California had the largest population of Italians of any western state.

Italians in the Central Valley pioneered the local cultivation of fruits and vegetables, distribution networks, and grocery stores to market their produce. Their community established the Gardener’s Society in 1902 as a mutual aid society for growers. In 1922, the Gardener’s Society organized the San Joaquin Marketing Association, a cooperative to expand the market for produce grown by Italian farmers.11 The group led the effort to build and underwrote construction of a public market building for their goods that opened one block to the south of the subject property in 1923. The two-block deep complex included stores for a grocery, butchers, and restaurants along N. Wilson Way with 11 “Marketing Association Files Articles,” Stockton Evening and Sunday Record, December 22, 1922, 12.

packing sheds behind.
12 In 1925, the neighborhood in the vicinity of Wilson Way and Channel Street was roughly 85 percent Italian.13
Continuing infrastructure improvement enhanced Stockton’s development in the early twentieth century, including the introduction of electric trolleys and construction of a new diverting channel in 1911 to address issues with flooding. Work to deepen the Stockton Channel began in 1927 and the new Port of Stockton opened in 1933 as the state’s largest inland port. The continued vitality of the city’s agricultural and industrial enterprises combined with infrastructure improvements to anchor Stockton’s economy through the Great Depression and the onset of World War II.14 Neighborhood
In 1895, N. East Street (now N. Wilson Way) delineated the eastern edge of the developed city (Figure 15). A Sanborn map of the same year portrayed the street as running parallel to a northsouth drainage ditch, intersected by occasional bridges. It showed the future site of 200-212 N.

Wilson Way as open land supporting a vineyard and orchard, sparsely settled with barns and processing buildings (Figure 16). Tracks of the Stockton & Copperopolis Railroad ran along the south side of the vineyard and orchard, parallel to E. Weber Avenue. The Miner Channel, a narrow eastern branch of the larger Stockton Channel, bounded the general area to the north. 12 “San Joaquin Growers Open Public Market in Stockton,” Stockton Evening and Sunday Record, April 28, 1923, 29. 13 Pacific Italian Alliance and Ralph A.

V. SITE HISTORY
Site Development
In 1911, the Schweitzer Tract, with the future 200-212 North Wilson Way located near its southwest corner, was subdivided by owners Mathias and Maria Schweitzer. The tract was bounded by N. East Street (now N. Wilson Way) on the west, the area of Eugenia Street on the east, Miner Street on the north including the parcels on the north side of Miner Street, and Channel Street on the south.

By the time of the 1917 Sanborn map, the area surrounding the future 200-212 N. Wilson Way had filled in with a street grid and a small number of buildings.

By the time of the 1917 Sanborn map, the area surrounding the future 200-212 N. Wilson Way had filled in with a street grid and a small number of buildings. The Schweitzer Tract itself was thinly populated with fewer than 20 mostly wood frame houses. A dwelling and two outbuildings stood on the site of the future 200-212 N. Wilson Way (Figure 17). Cultivated fields at the far east end of the tract were crossed by new tracks for the Stockton Terminal and Eastern Railroad. The subject property was built in 1921 at 200-212 N. East Street. Sometime between 1922 and 1924, the street was renamed N. Wilson Way, changing the subject property address to 200-212 N. Wilson Way.

Historic aerial photographs show that, by 1928, most of the east and north sides of the Schweitzer Tract were developed with residences while the commercial buildings at 200-222 N. Wilson Way lined the street (Figure 18). The south side of Channel Street was developed with a large agricultural processing and warehousing operation. The area was now served by the main track of the Southern Pacific Oakdale Branch line (the previous Stockton and Copperopolis line) with adjacent spur tracks wrapping to the east and north to serve future development and industrial use.

Sanborn maps show that, by 1950, the Schweitzer Tract was mostly residential with commercial development along N. Wilson Way, and several industrial enterprises along the 1600 block of E.

Channel Avenue (Figure 19). The businesses at 200-212 N. Wilson Way were portrayed as one-story brick-and-frame construction with concrete floors divided into three business spaces. These housed motor rewinding and machine shop services. The rear half of the parcel contained a house and garage (Figure 20).

CONSTRUCTION CHRONOLOGY
Assessor records indicate that 200-212 N. Wilson Way was built in 1921. No building permits were available for the property, and the architect or builder is unknown. Based on visual inspection, alterations at 200-212 include the addition of brick veneer and a canopy on the west front façade, infilled windows, and the addition of security grilles. Alterations on the rear façade appear to include the shed roof canopy at the south end of the façade, infilled windows, and the horizontal window opening with a security grille.

SELECT OWNER AND OCCUPANT BIOGRAPHIES
Louis Goeltz (Owner 1913-1923)
Louis Goeltz was born in Germany in 1863. He arrived in the U.S. in 1881 and became an American citizen in 1887.15 By 1906 he appears to have been living in Stockton where directories for 1906 through 1924 listed him variously as a cook and as a poultry man in that city. From 1906 through 1919, the Stockton Evening and Sunday Record reported on Goetz’s regular real estate purchases and sales, primarily of parcels in the emerging east side of the city. Research did not associate him with the construction of any buildings although it is possible he commissioned the buildings at 200-212 N. Wilson Way during his term of ownership. Goeltz died in Stockton in 1923.16 Giovanni Battista Ghiorzo (Owner 1923-1962)
Giovanni Battista Ghiorzo (also known as John B. or J.B.) was born in Italy in 1887. He immigrated to the United States in 1904 and by the time of the 1910 Census was living in Stockton where he was listed as a farmer and clerk at a grocery store.17 In 1915, an announcement of his wedding to Mary Piccardo noted that he now owned the Toll House Grocery in the 400 block of N. East Street, two blocks north of the subject property.18 For over a decade, starting in 1918, newspapers reported on Ghiorzo as part of the Gardener’s Society where he was an officer on the membership committee and secretary of the organization. The 1920 Census recorded him as owner of his own grocery store.19 In 1922, Ghiorzo was one of the Society leaders who created the San Joaquin Marketing Association and spearheaded construction of the nearby public market south of the subject 15 “New York, US, Index to Petitions for Naturalization filed in New York City, 1792-1989,” Ancestry.com. 16 “Died,” Stockton Evening and Sunday Record, September 12, 1923, 17. 17 “U.S, Census, 1910,” Ancestry.com.

20 He appeared in photos of the opening event for the new complex as a founding secretary.21 That same year, Ghiorzo received a building permit for construction of a Standard Oil service station on Weber Street adjacent to the new public market.22 From at least 1927 through 1936, newspaper articles noted that Ghiorzo was owner of the New Growers Inn at 200-212 N.

Wilson Way, a lunch counter also providing ice cream, soft drinks, cigars, and cigarettes. The 1930 Census listed him as owner of a soft drink stand and in 1940 as the owner of a bar. 23 Ghiorzo died in
1972 in Stockton.

Research did not reveal additional information about Mary Piccardo (1893-1984). Together the couple had two sons, Robert and Vernon. Ownership of the subject building passed to Vernon in 1962, and he owned the building until 1977.

VI. EVALUATION
California Register of Historical Resources
The California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) is an inventory of significant architectural, archaeological, and historical resources in the State of California. Resources can be listed in the California Register through a number of methods. State Historical Landmarks and National Register-listed properties are automatically listed in the California Register. Properties can also be nominated to the California Register by local governments, private organizations, or citizens.

The evaluative criteria used by the California Register for determining eligibility are closely based on those developed by the National Park Service for the National Register of Historic Places.

In order for a property to be eligible for listing in the California Register, it must be found significant under one or more of the following criteria.
• Criterion 1 (Events): Resources that are associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of local or regional history, or the cultural heritage of California or the United States.
• Criterion 2 (Persons): Resources that are associated with the lives of persons important to local, California, or national history.
• Criterion 3 (Architecture): Resources that embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of construction, or represent the work of a master, or possess high artistic values.
• Criterion 4 (Information Potential): Resources or sites that have yielded or have the potential to yield information important to the prehistory or history of the local area, California, or the nation.24
The following section examines the eligibility of 200-212 N. Wilson way for individual listing in the California Register.

CRITERION 1 (EVENTS)
Research did not indicate that any event significant to local or state history took place at 200-212 N.

Wilson Way. The commercial building was constructed in 1921 at a period when the surrounding neighborhood was developing as part of Stockton’s eastward growth. It is not the first commercial 24 California Office of Historic Preservation, Technical Assistance Bulletin No. 7: How to Nominate a Resource to the California Register of Historical Resources (Sacramento: California Office of State Publishing, September 4, 2001), 11.

building in the area and did not drive development of the N. Wilson Way corridor. Other commercial buildings from the same period remain within a few blocks of the subject property that serve to express the early history of the area. The building is not an individually distinctive example of the area’s original period of development or its subsequent increased density as a location for agricultural warehousing, distribution, and automotive services.

Therefore, 200-212 N. Wilson Way is not individually eligible under California Register Criterion 1.

CRITERION 2 (PERSONS)
Louis Goeltz owned the parcel from 1913 through 1923. Further research is needed to determine if he is associated with construction of the 200-212 N. Wilson Way.

G. B. Ghiorzo was associated with 200-212 N. Wilson Way from 1923 to 1962. He was a property owner and businessman who owned a grocery and later a bar and lunch counter and was an officer in both the Gardener’s Society and the San Joaquin Marketing Association. Ghiorzo was among the community leaders who advocated for and helped subsidize construction of the produce market on the south side of Channel Street in the early 1920s. While his efforts helped advance the cause of both organizations, he contributed to collaborative efforts and was not the single visionary or advocate behind their realization.

Research did not find that Goeltz or Ghiorzo made significant contributions to local or state history.

Therefore, 200-212 N. Wilson Way is not individually eligible under California Register Criterion 2.

CRITERION 3 (ARCHITECTURE)
200-212 N. Wilson Way consists of a vernacular utilitarian building constructed with simple materials to accommodate commercial use with no stylistic embellishment or technical innovation. Its masonry construction is typical of inexpensive and rapidly assembled building techniques meant to serve a functional rather than aesthetic purpose. Because the architect and builder are unknown, the building cannot be considered the work of a master.

Therefore, 200-212 N. Wilson Way is not individually eligible under California Register Criterion 3.

CRITERION 4 (INFORMATION POTENTIAL)
The “potential to yield information important to the prehistory or history of California” typically relates to archeological resources, rather than built resources. When California Register Criterion 4 (Information Potential) does relate to built resources, it is relevant for cases when the building itself Attachment G
1963
Historic Resources Evaluation (HRE) 200-212 N. Wilson Way [24056] Stockton, CA
PAGE & TURNBULL 27 July 12, 2024
is the principal source of important construction-related information. The property does not appear to be eligible under Criterion 4 as a principal source of important construction-related information.

Evaluation of this property is limited to buildings above ground and did not involve survey or evaluation of the subject property for the purposes of archaeological information.

Integrity
In order to qualify for listing in any local, state, or national historic register, a property or landscape must possess significance under at least one evaluative criterion as described above and retain integrity. Integrity is defined by the California Office of Historic Preservation as “the authenticity of an historical resource’s physical identity evidenced by the survival of characteristics that existed during the resource’s period of significance,” or more simply defined by the National Park Service as “the ability of a property to convey its significance.”25 In order to evaluate whether the subject property retains sufficient integrity to convey its historic significance, Page & Turnbull used established integrity standards outlined by the National Register Bulletin 15: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation. Seven variables, or aspects, that define integrity are used to evaluate a resource’s integrity—location, setting, design, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. A property must possess most, or all, of these aspects in order to retain overall integrity. If a property does not retain integrity, it can no longer convey its significance and is therefore not eligible for listing in local, state, or national registers.

The seven aspects that define integrity are defined as follows:

Location is the place where the historic property was constructed or the place where the historic event occurred;
Setting addresses the physical environment of the historic property inclusive of the landscape and spatial relationships of the building(s); Design is the combination of elements that create the form, plan, space, structure, and style of the property;
Materials refer to the physical elements that were combined or deposited during a particular period of time and in a particular pattern or configuration to form the historic property; 25 California Office of Historic Preservation, Technical Assistance Series No. 7: How to Nominate a Resource to the California Register of Historical Resources (Sacramento: California Office of State Publishing, September 4, 2001), 11; and National Park Service, National Register Bulletin 15: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation (Washington, D.C.: U.S.

Department of the Interior, National Park Service, 1995), 44.

Workmanship is the physical evidence of the crafts of a particular culture or people during any given period in history or prehistory;
Feeling is the property’s expression of the aesthetic or historic sense of a particular period of time; and
Association is the direct link between an important historic event or person and the historic property.

As the subject building does not appear to be individually significant under any of the above listed criteria, an analysis of the property’s historic integrity is not included in this report.

VII. CONCLUSION
The commercial building at 200-212 N. Wilson Way is not associated with any event that is significant to local or state history. It is among the many modest commercial buildings constructed along N.

Wilson Way in the period to provide support to the emerging agricultural distribution and warehousing businesses in the area. Louis Goeltz owned the property from 1913 to 1921, and G.B.

Ghiorzo owned the property from 1923 to 1977. While Goeltz was a landholder and Ghiorzo contributed to the economy of the neighborhood as a grocer, lunch counter and bar owner, and as an advocate for construction of the nearby San Joaquin Marketing Association market, neither man’s contributions rise to a level important in or significant to local or state history. The architecture of 200-212 N. Wilson Way does not exhibit distinctive levels of design, craftsmanship, or innovation such that it would be considered architecturally significant. Further, research did not uncover any original architect or builder. The building is not a notable example of its type, style, or period.

Therefore, the property is not eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources and is not a historical resource for the purposes of CEQA.

II. EXISTING HISTORIC STATUS
The following section examines the state and local historic status currently assigned to the commercial building at 220-222 N. Wilson Way.

National Register of Historic Places
The National Register of Historic Places (National Register) is the nation’s most comprehensive inventory of historic resources. The National Register is administered by the National Park Service and includes buildings, structures, sites, objects, and districts that possess historic, architectural, engineering, archaeological, or cultural significance at the national, state, or local level.

The subject property is not listed in the National Register of Historic Places individually, or as part of a registered historic district.

California Register of Historical Resources
The California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) is an inventory of significant architectural, archaeological, and historical resources in the State of California. Resources can be listed in the California Register through a number of methods. State Historical Landmarks and National Register-listed properties are automatically listed in the California Register. Properties can also be nominated to the California Register by local governments, private organizations, or citizens.

The evaluative criteria used by the California Register for determining eligibility are closely based on those developed by the National Park Service for the National Register of Historic Places.

The subject property is not listed in the California Register of Historical Resources individually, or as part of a registered historic district.

California Historical Resource Status Codes
Properties listed or under review by the State of California Office of Historic Preservation are listed within the Built Environment Resource Directory (BERD) and are assigned a California Historical Resource Status Code (Status Code) of “1” to “7” to establish their historical significance in relation to the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) or California Register of Historical Resources (California Register).1 Properties with a Status Code of “1” or “2” are either eligible for listing in the California Register or the National Register, or are already listed in one or both of the registers. Properties assigned Status Codes of “3” or “4” appear to be eligible for listing in either 1 California State Office of Historic Preservation, Built Environment Resource Directory (BERD), San Joaquin County, updated September 2022.

register, but normally require more research to support this rating. Properties assigned a Status Code of “5” have typically been determined to be locally significant or to have contextual importance. Properties with a Status Code of “6” are not eligible for listing in either register. Finally, a Status Code of “7” means that the resource has not been evaluated for the National Register or the California Register or needs reevaluation.

The subject property is not currently listed in the BERD database for San Joaquin County with a status code. This means the property has not been formally evaluated using California Historical Resource Status codes and submitted to the California Office of Historic Preservation. The most recent update to the BERD database was in September 2022.

Stockton Historic Landmarks and Structures of Merit
The Stockton Municipal Code identifies criteria for listing cultural resources as Landmarks, Historic Sites, and Structure of Merit.2 These criteria are listed in Sections 16.220.070, 16.220.090, and

16.220.100 of the Municipal Code. In evaluating individual cultural resources for local designation, the criteria consider archaeological interest, architectural craftsmanship, architectural style, architectural type, historic events, heritage, visual features, relationships to another Landmarks, significant person(s), the work of significant person(s), and natural environments.

Landmarks, Historic Sites, and historic preservation districts are recommended for approval by the City of Stockton Planning Commission and City Council by the Cultural Heritage Board (the Board).

The Board has the power to designate Structure of Merit. 220-222 N. Wilson Way is not currently designated as a Stockton Landmark, Historic Site, or Structure of Merit.

Surrounding Neighborhood
The neighborhood along N. Wilson Way consists of commercial, industrial, and warehouse facilities dating from the early through the late twentieth century. These consist of buildings serving automotive, agricultural, and local small-scale retail enterprises (Figure 9 and Figure 10). Several ornate early buildings occupy the block to the south between Channel and Weber Street, specifically the Renaissance Revival Lido Hotel at 111 N. Wilson Way and the Neoclassical Growers Building at 122 N. Wilson Way, both of which were built by and for the area’s early twentieth-century Italian community (Figure 11 and Figure 12). The blocks south of N. Wilson Way consist of remnant railroad and warehouses and diffuse areas of housing (Figure 13 and Figure 14).

IV. HISTORIC CONTEXT
Early Stockton History
Captain Charles M. Weber built the first structures on the site that would become Stockton in 1847, calling the settlement Tuleberg.3 Like many cities in Northern California, Stockton grew from a small, rural outpost into a booming city as a result of the Gold Rush. Tuleberg’s advantageous location at the head of the Stockton Channel, a tributary of the San Joaquin River, transformed it into a gateway and supply center for miners and supplies traveling from San Francisco to the gold fields.4 In 1849, Major R. P. Hammond completed a survey that laid out Tuleberg’s first street grid between Weber Avenue, Center Street, Main Street, and Commerce Street.5 With California statehood in 1850, the settlement was incorporated as a city and renamed Stockton. Between 1850 and 1855, the population grew from approximately 1,000 to 7,000 individuals. Residential districts developed to the southwest and north of the commercial core. 6
By the mid-1850s, as the Gold Rush diminished, Stockton became a center for Central Valley agriculture. New industries emerged to process and transport wheat, grains, fruits and vegetables and to manufacture agricultural tools and equipment.
7 Shipyards, iron foundries, warehouses, and
factories were established to supply deep water shipping along the Channel and support various railroad companies.8 By the 1890s, Stockton had grown to approximately 23,000 residents.9 With a growing population and burgeoning economy, Stockton experienced a building boom from the 1880s through the early 1930s. The majority of the city’s downtown and nearby residential areas were constructed in this period. Pressure to develop land outside the flood zone of the Stockton Channel pushed some development toward the east side of the city in the area of the subject property (Figure 15).

Many of Stockton’s late nineteenth and early twentieth century citizens were immigrants including people of Chinese, Filipino, Japanese, and Sikh origin who became the main labor force in the city’s packing houses, farms, and domestic industries. Italians also moved to the city in large numbers in in the decades after 1890. By 1940, California had the largest population of Italians of any western state.

Italians in the Central Valley pioneered the local cultivation of fruits and vegetables, distribution networks, and grocery stores to market their produce. Their community established the Gardener’s Society in 1902 as a mutual aid society for growers. In 1922, the Gardener’s Society organized the San Joaquin Marketing Association, a cooperative to expand the market for produce grown by Italian farmers.11 The group led the effort to build and underwrote construction of a public market building for their goods that opened one block to the south of the subject property in 1923. The two-block deep complex included stores for groceries, butchers, and restaurants along N. Wilson Way with 11 “Marketing Association Files Articles,” Stockton Evening and Sunday Record, December 22, 1922, 12.

packing sheds behind.
12 In 1925, the neighborhood in the vicinity of Wilson Way and Channel Street was roughly 85 percent Italian.13
Continuing infrastructure improvement enhanced Stockton’s development in the early twentieth century including the introduction of electric trolleys and construction of a new diverting channel in 1911 to address issues with flooding. Work to deepen the Stockton Channel began in 1927 and the new Port of Stockton opened in 1933 as the state’s largest inland port. The continued vitality of the city’s agricultural and industrial enterprises combined with infrastructure improvements to anchor Stockton’s economy through the Great Depression and the onset of World War II.14 Neighborhood
In 1895, N. East Street (now N. Wilson Way) delineated the eastern edge of the developed city (Figure 16). A Sanborn map of the same year portrayed the street as running parallel to a northsouth drainage ditch, intersected by occasional bridges. It showed the future site of 220-222 N.

Wilson Way as open land supporting a vineyard and orchard, sparsely settled with barns and processing buildings (Figure 17). Tracks of the Stockton & Copperopolis Railroad ran along the south side of the vineyard and orchard, parallel to E. Weber Avenue. The Miner Channel, a narrow eastern branch of the larger Stockton Channel, bounded the general area to the north. 12 “San Joaquin Growers Open Public Market in Stockton,” Stockton Evening and Sunday Record, April 28, 1923, 29. 13 Pacific Italian Alliance and Ralph A.

V. SITE HISTORY
Site Development
In 1911, the Schweitzer Tract, with the future 220-222 N. Wilson Way located near its southwest corner, was subdivided by owners Mathias and Maria Schweitzer. The tract was bounded by N. East Street (now N. Wilson Way) on the west, the area of Eugenia Street on the east, Miner Street on the north including the parcels on the north side of Miner Street, and Channel Street on the south.

By the time of the 1917 Sanborn map, the area surrounding the future 220-222 N. Wilson Way had filled in with a street grid and a small number of buildings. The Schweitzer Tract itself was thinly populated with fewer than 20 mostly wood frame houses. A vacant hen house stood on the site of the future 220-222 North Wilson (Figure 18). Cultivated fields at the far east end of the tract were crossed by new tracks for the Stockton Terminal and Eastern Railroad. The subject property was built in 1920 at 220-222 N. East Street. Sometime between 1922 and 1924, the street was renamed N. Wilson Way changing the subject property address to 220-222 N. Wilson Way.

Historic aerial photographs show that, by 1928, most of the east and north sides of the Schweitzer Tract were developed with residences while the commercial buildings at 220-222 N. Wilson Way lined the street (Figure 19). The south side of Channel Street was developed with a large agricultural processing and warehousing operation. The area was now served by the main track of the Southern Attachment G

Sanborn maps show that, by 1950, the Schweitzer Tract was mostly residential with commercial development along N. Wilson Way, and several industrial enterprises along the 1600 block of E.

Channel Avenue. The businesses at 220-222 N. Wilson Way were portrayed as one-story brick-andframe construction with concrete floors divided into two business spaces. These housed a store and a tire service. The rear half of the parcel at 220-222 was not developed.

SELECT OWNER AND OCCUPANT BIOGRAPHIES
Louis Goeltz (Owner 1913-1923)
Louis Goeltz was born in Germany in 1863. He arrived in the U.S. in 1881 and became an American citizen in 1887.15 By 1906 he appears to have been living in Stockton where directories for 1906 through 1924 listed him variously as a cook and as a poultry man in that city. From 1906 through 1919, the Stockton Evening and Sunday Record reported on Goetz’s regular real estate purchases and sales, primarily of parcels in the emerging east side of the city. Research did not associate him with the construction of any buildings although it is possible he commissioned the buildings at 200-212 N. Wilson Way during his term of ownership. Goeltz died in Stockton in 1923.16 15 “New York, US, Index to Petitions for Naturalization filed in New York City, 1792-1989,” Ancestry.com. 16 “Died,” Stockton Evening and Sunday Record, September 12, 1923, 17.

Giovanni Battista Ghiorzo (Owner, 1923-1962)
Giovannia Battista Ghiorzo (also known as John B. or J.B.) was born in Italy in 1887. He immigrated to the United States in 1904 and by the time of the 1910 Census was living in Stockton where he was listed as a farmer and clerk at a grocery store.17 In 1915, an announcement of his wedding to Mary Piccardo noted that he now owned the Toll House Grocery in the 400 block of N. East Street, two blocks north of the subject property.18 For over a decade, starting in 1918, newspapers reported on Ghiorzo as part of the Gardener’s Society where he was an officer on the membership committee and secretary of the organization. The 1920 Census recorded him as owner of his own grocery store.19 In 1922, Ghiorzo was one of the Society leaders who created the San Joaquin Marketing Association and spearheaded construction of the nearby public market south of the subject property.
20 He appeared in photos of the opening event for the new complex as a founding secretary.21 That same year, Ghiorzo received a building permit for construction of a Standard Oil service station on Weber Street adjacent to the new public market.22 From at least 1927 through 1936, newspaper articles noted that Ghiorzo was owner of the New Growers Inn at 200-212 N.

Wilson Way, a lunch counter also providing ice cream, soft drinks, cigars, and cigarettes. The 1930 Census listed him as owner of a soft drink stand and in 1940 as the owner of a bar. 23 Ghiorzo died in
1972 in Stockton.

Research did not reveal additional information about Mary Piccardo (1893-1984). Together the couple had two sons, Robert and Vernon. Ownership of the subject building passed to Vernon in 1962, and he owned the building until 1977.

VI. EVALUATION
California Register of Historical Resources
The California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) is an inventory of significant architectural, archaeological, and historical resources in the State of California. Resources can be listed in the California Register through a number of methods. State Historical Landmarks and National Register-listed properties are automatically listed in the California Register. Properties can also be nominated to the California Register by local governments, private organizations, or citizens.

The evaluative criteria used by the California Register for determining eligibility are closely based on those developed by the National Park Service for the National Register of Historic Places.

In order for a property to be eligible for listing in the California Register, it must be found significant under one or more of the following criteria.
• Criterion 1 (Events): Resources that are associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of local or regional history, or the cultural heritage of California or the United States.
• Criterion 2 (Persons): Resources that are associated with the lives of persons important to local, California, or national history.
• Criterion 3 (Architecture): Resources that embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of construction, or represent the work of a master, or possess high artistic values.
• Criterion 4 (Information Potential): Resources or sites that have yielded or have the potential to yield information important to the prehistory or history of the local area, California, or the nation.24
The following section examines the eligibility of 220-222 N. Wilson way for individual listing in the California Register.

CRITERION 1 (EVENTS)
Research did not indicate that any event significant to local or state history took place at 220-222 N.

Wilson Way. The commercial buildings were constructed in 1920 at a period when the surrounding neighborhood was developing as part of Stockton’s eastward growth. They are not the first 24 California Office of Historic Preservation, Technical Assistance Bulletin No. 7: How to Nominate a Resource to the California Register of Historical Resources (Sacramento: California Office of State Publishing, September 4, 2001), 11.

PAGE & TURNBULL 24 July 12, 2024
commercial buildings in the area and did not drive development of the N. Wilson Way corridor.

Other commercial buildings from the same period remain within a few blocks of the subject property that serve to express the early history of the area. Neither building is an individually distinctive example of the area’s original period of development or its subsequent increased density as a location for agricultural warehousing, distribution, and automotive services.

Therefore, 220-222 N. Wilson Way is not individually eligible under California Register Criterion 1.

CRITERION 2 (PERSONS)
Louis Goeltz owned the parcel from 1913 through 1923. Further research is needed to determine if he is associated with construction of the 200-212 N. Wilson Way.

G. B. Ghiorzo was associated with 220-222 N. Wilson Way from 1923 to 1962. He was a property owner and businessman who owned a grocery and later a bar and lunch counter and was an officer in both the Gardener’s Society and the San Joaquin Marketing Association. Ghiorzo was among the community leaders who advocated for and helped subsidize construction of the produce market on the south side of Channel Street in the early 1920s. While his efforts helped advance the cause of both organizations, he contributed to collaborative efforts and was not the single visionary or advocate behind their realization.

Research did not find that Goeltz or Ghiorzo made significant contributions to local or state history.

Therefore, 220-222 N. Wilson Way is not individually eligible under California Register Criterion 2.

CRITERION 3 (ARCHITECTURE)
220-222 N. Wilson Way consists of adjacent utilitarian structures built with simple materials to accommodate commercial use with no stylistic embellishment or technical innovation. The woodframe and masonry construction for 220 N. Wilson Way and wood-frame and corrugated metal construction 222 for N. Wilson Way is typical of inexpensive and rapidly assembled construction meant to serve a functional rather than aesthetic purpose. Because the architect and builder are unknown, the buildings cannot be considered the work of a master.

Therefore, 200-220 N. Wilson Way is not individually eligible under California Register Criterion 3.

PAGE & TURNBULL 25 July 12, 2024
CRITERION 4 (INFORMATION POTENTIAL)
The “potential to yield information important to the prehistory or history of California” typically relates to archeological resources, rather than built resources. When California Register Criterion 4 (Information Potential) does relate to built resources, it is relevant for cases when the building itself is the principal source of important construction-related information. The property does not appear to be eligible under Criterion 4 as a principal source of important construction-related information.

Evaluation of this property was limited to built resources above ground and did not involve survey or evaluation of the subject property for the purposes of archaeological information.

Integrity
In order to qualify for listing in any local, state, or national historic register, a property or landscape must possess significance under at least one evaluative criterion as described above and retain integrity. Integrity is defined by the California Office of Historic Preservation as “the authenticity of an historical resource’s physical identity evidenced by the survival of characteristics that existed during the resource’s period of significance,” or more simply defined by the National Park Service as “the ability of a property to convey its significance.”25 In order to evaluate whether the subject property retains sufficient integrity to convey its historic significance, Page & Turnbull used established integrity standards outlined by the National Register Bulletin 15: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation. Seven variables, or aspects, that define integrity are used to evaluate a resource’s integrity—location, setting, design, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. A property must possess most, or all, of these aspects in order to retain overall integrity. If a property does not retain integrity, it can no longer convey its significance and is therefore not eligible for listing in local, state, or national registers.

The seven aspects that define integrity are defined as follows:

Location is the place where the historic property was constructed or the place where the historic event occurred;
Setting addresses the physical environment of the historic property inclusive of the landscape and spatial relationships of the building(s); 25 California Office of Historic Preservation, Technical Assistance Series No. 7: How to Nominate a Resource to the California Register of Historical Resources (Sacramento: California Office of State Publishing, September 4, 2001), 11; and National Park Service, National Register Bulletin 15: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation (Washington, D.C.: U.S.

Department of the Interior, National Park Service, 1995), 44.

1996

PAGE & TURNBULL 26 July 12, 2024
Design is the combination of elements that create the form, plan, space, structure, and style of the property;
Materials refer to the physical elements that were combined or deposited during a particular period of time and in a particular pattern or configuration to form the historic property; Workmanship is the physical evidence of the crafts of a particular culture or people during any given period in history or prehistory;
Feeling is the property’s expression of the aesthetic or historic sense of a particular period of time; and
Association is the direct link between an important historic event or person and the historic property.

As the subject building does not appear to be individually significant under any of the above listed criteria, an analysis of the property’s historic integrity is not included in this report.

VII. CONCLUSION
The two adjacent commercial buildings at 220-222 N. Wilson Way are not associated with any event that is significant to local or state history. They are among the many modest commercial buildings constructed along N. Wilson Way in the period to provide support to the emerging agricultural distribution and warehousing businesses in the area. Louis Goeltz owned the property from 1913 to 1923, and G.B. Ghiorzo owned the property from 1923 to 1977. While Goeltz was a landholder and Ghiorzo contributed to the economy of the neighborhood as a grocer, lunch counter and bar owner, and as an advocate for construction of the nearby San Joaquin Marketing Association market, neither man’s contributions rise to a level important in or significant to local or state history. The architecture of the buildings at 220-222 N. Wilson Way does not exhibit distinctive levels of design, craftsmanship, or innovation such that it would be considered architecturally significant. Further, research did not uncover any original architect or builder. The buildings are not notable examples of their type, style, or period.

Therefore, the property is not eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources and is not a historical resource for the purposes of CEQA.

AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE STOCKTON ZONING MAP FOR REZONING 1.19- ACRES, INCLUSIVE OF ASSESSOR’S PARCEL NUMBERS APNs 153-030-23; -24; - 25; -26; -27; -28 and 153-030-02; -03; and -04, BY ASSIGNING COMMERCIAL,

GENERAL (CG) ZONING DESIGNATION IN PLACE OF THE CURRENT INDUSTRIAL, LIMITED (IL) ZONING DESIGNATION (P24-0150)

BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STOCKTON, AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. FINDINGS AND INTENT
The City Council of the City of Stockton finds, pursuant to SMC Section 16.116.050(B)(1) and (3), that:
a. Finding #1: The proposed amendment ensures and maintains internal consistency with general land uses, objectives, policies, programs, and actions of all elements of the General Plan on balance and would not create any inconsistencies with this Development Code.

Evidence: The proposed Rezone is consistent with the General Plan land use designation of Commercial as the CG zoning district is allowed within the Commercial Designation. The proposed rezone will not result in any inconsistencies, endanger the public health and safety, or result in an unforeseen environmental impact beyond what was previously envisioned for the area.

The project would further General Plan policies aimed at attracting and retaining companies that offer high-quality jobs with wages that are competitive with the region and State (Goal LU-4), attracting employment and taxgenerating businesses in the City (Policy LU-4.2), and prioritizing development and redevelopment of vacant, underutilized, and blighted infill areas (Policy LU6.2). b. Finding #2: The proposed amendment will not endanger, jeopardize, or otherwise constitute a hazard to the public convenience, health, interest, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the City.

Evidence: The proposed Rezone of the proposed parcels will be consistent with the existing surrounding parcels to the north, west and south. This amendment will result in physical development on five (5) of the nine (9) parcels, and all will comply with all applicable CG zoning standards as well as all building and fire regulations for health and safety. The remaining four (4) lots are currently vacant with no proposed project; all future development would be required to comply with the municipal code standards and any other regualations at the 2032
time of submittal to the City for a Planning application or Building permits.

Therefore, the proposed rezone will not endanger, jeopardize, or otherwise constitute a hazard to the public convenience, health, interest, safety or general welfare of persons residing or working in the City.
c. Finding #3: The proposed amendment complies with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City’s CEQA Guidelines.

Evidence: The proposed Project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA Guidelines section 15303(c), New Construction or Conversion of Small Structure, since it includes the construction of a store, motel, office, restaurant or similar structure, not involving the use of significant amounts of hazardous substances and not exceeding 2,500 square feet in floor area. In urbanized areas, the exemption also applies to up to four (4) commercial buildings not exceeding 10,000 square feet in floor area on sites zoned for such use if not involving the use of significant amounts of hazardous substances where all necessary public services and facilities are available, and the surrounding area is not environmentally sensitive
The project site is on a city block with both Industrial, Limited (IL) and Commercial, General (CG) zoning. City blocks to the north, west, and south are currently zoned CG. Thus, the proposed rezone from IL to CG would not create any inconsistencies with the existing zoning of the surrounding vicinity. d. Finding #4: The site would be physically suitable (including access, provision of utilities, compatibility with adjoining land uses, and absence of physical constraints) for the requested zoning designation(s) and anticipated land use development(s).

Evidence: Based on the information provided by the applicant and each Department’s analysis, the subject site is physically suitable to be accessed from existing public streets and served from existing utilities located within the adjacent streets. Further, the proposed change to a commercial use is compatible with existing adjoining commercial land uses (retail sales and services) located within the same City block as the project site and along the adjacent Wilson Way corridor. The project design as proposed was reviewed and will meet all applicable City development standards.

SECTION II. REZONE CLASSIFICATION
Based on its review of the entire record herein, including the accompanying staff report, all supporting, referenced, and incorporated documents, and all comments received, the City Council hereby approves an Amendment for the boundary modification to the Zoning Map for APNs 153-030-23; -24; -25; -26; -27; -28 and 153-030-02; -03; and -04, changing the existing designation of Industrial, Limited (IL) zoning to Commercial, General (CG) 2033
zoning as shown in Exhibit 1, attached and incorporated by this reference.

SECTION III. SEVERABILITY
If any part of this Ordinance is held invalid for any reason, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portion of this Ordinance, and the City Council hereby declares that it would have passed the remainder of this Ordinance if such invalid portion thereof had been deleted.

SECTION IV. EFFECTIVE DATE
This Ordinance shall take effect and be in full force thirty (30) days after its passage.
