SPERRY FLOUR COMPANY 
1005 Monterey Street

History and Description:

The Sperry Flour Building was built in the late 1800's. It was a flour mill with
a grind stone powered by the San Luis Creek, behind the building.  The building
was still occupied by the Sperry Company in 1904.  Some years later the building
changed owners and has since been occupied by several car dealers and garages.
Behind the building was the century-old Garcia adobe and the Sinsheimer House,
which is now the lot of San Luis Obispo Savings and Loan.

The old building now has stucco over much of the brick. It has been greatly
altered to allow for the new owners.  Side windows have been covered and new
larger display windows were cut into the front of the building.
