According to a biography, Schuyler \u201creceived a common-school education\u201d and \u201cwhen sixteen years of age he went to learn the tinner\u2019s trade, after which he worked as a journeyman in several of the Western States. In 1858 he came to California, where he worked in several places, and returned to New York City in 1864.\u201d<\/p><p>Schuyler married Ann Frances Barlow in 1864 and they had three children: Mary, Frank B., and Wilton S., all born in Nebraska, where they resided until 1884, when the family moved to San Bernardino, California.<\/p><div class=\"column-row\"><div class=\"column-12\"><div class=\"column-row\"><div class=\"column-12\"><p><script id=\"cr-init__61f7e605859f74d9\" src=\"https:\/\/starling.crowdriff.com\/js\/crowdriff.js\" async=\"\"><\/script><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-061f4f8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"061f4f8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>John and Ann Schuyler moved to Oceanside in 1887 and opened his first hardware business on Second Street (now Mission Avenue) which he purchased from Oceanside\u2019s founder Andrew Jackson Myers.

Schuyler was the founding member of the Odd Fellows Lodge in Oceanside and his storefront also bore the lodge emblem which hosted the lodge meetings on the second floor.<\/p><p>John Schuyler died in 1907 and his death was announced in the Oceanside Blade:<\/p><p><em>Word was received on Friday, by the local Odd Fellow lodge, of the death of John Schuyler, a former well known resident of Oceanside and the organizer of the Oceanside I. O. O. F. Lodge. Mr. Schuyler\u00a0was one of the prominent businessmen of Oceanside about twenty years ago, being the pioneer hardware merchant in this city, and active in the civic life of the town during his residence here. For the past ten years or so he had been making his home in Berkeley with his older son, Frank. He is survived by two sons. F. B. Schuyler\u00a0of Berkeley, and Wilton S. Schuyler\u00a0of St. Joseph Mo., and one daughter, Mrs. John Bond of Berkeley. The body will be brought to Oceanside, arriving Sunday, and interment will be made in the Odd Fellow cemetery beside Mrs. Schuyler who died about fifteen years ago. Services will be held under the auspices of the local lodge and will take place at the grave at noon, proceeding directly to the cemetery from the depot<\/em>.\u201d<\/p><p>Years before his death the Schuyler building was sold to John H. Buchanan, who in turn sold the property later that year to Peter J. Brannen. Brannen came from Los Angeles to Oceanside and continued operation of the hardware business. In 1905 he helped to form the First National Bank of Oceanside along with D. G. Harrington, C. J. Walker, and others. That year he remodeled the interior portions of the former Schuyler building and opened it as a boarding house.<\/p><p>The building was sold in 1913 to Oceanside resident Mary J. Walbridge. She leased the ground floor to Jack Taylor and Refugio Romo who opened a caf\u00e9. The second floor was leased to Refugio and his wife Madge Romo, and together they operated the \u201cRomo boarding house\u201d for several years.<\/p><p>In 1920, it was sold to James B. and Ella Kolb in 1920. James Kolb was the son of Jonathon and Frances Kolb, who first settled in Pala and later Fallbrook. The Kolb family had ties to Oceanside as early as 1884 and son Jesse Kolb established the Oceanside Garage on Hill Street. James and Ella Kolb sold the property to Thomas Russell Harriman of Pasadena in 1923.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4b1157f e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"4b1157f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8065ea3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-gallery\" data-id=\"8065ea3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;columns&quot;:2,&quot;lazyload&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;gallery_layout&quot;:&quot;grid&quot;,&quot;columns_tablet&quot;:2,&quot;columns_mobile&quot;:1,&quot;gap&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_tablet_extra&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;link_to&quot;:&quot;file&quot;,&quot;aspect_ratio&quot;:&quot;3:2&quot;,&quot;overlay_background&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;content_hover_animation&quot;:&quot;fade-in&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery__container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/visitoceanside.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Historic-Schuyler-Building-4.webp\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"8065ea3\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTA4NzgsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC92aXNpdG9jZWFuc2lkZS5vcmdcL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcLzIwMjNcLzAxXC9IaXN0b3JpYy1TY2h1eWxlci1CdWlsZGluZy00LndlYnAiLCJzbGlkZXNob3ciOiI4MDY1ZWEzIn0%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/visitoceanside.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Historic-Schuyler-Building-4-1024x783.webp\" data-width=\"800\" data-height=\"612\" aria-label=\"\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/visitoceanside.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Historic-Schuyler-Building-5-1200.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"8065ea3\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MjMyNDAsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC92aXNpdG9jZWFuc2lkZS5vcmdcL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcLzIwMjNcLzAyXC9IaXN0b3JpYy1TY2h1eWxlci1CdWlsZGluZy01LTEyMDAuanBnIiwic2xpZGVzaG93IjoiODA2NWVhMyJ9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/visitoceanside.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Historic-Schuyler-Building-5-1200-1024x717.jpg\" data-width=\"800\" data-height=\"560\" aria-label=\"\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cf44a2d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"cf44a2d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In late November of 1924 local grocers William Contreras and Carlos Gelpi rented the first-floor storeroom of the building. The Blade reported that the two businessmen had \u201c<em>bought the grocery line of L. W. Stump and will move the stock to the Romo building on Third street, where they will be open for business the first of the week. Mr. Contreras is well and popularly known as an employee of the Stump store for several years past and he and Mr. Gelpi are prepared to carry on the business in a manner that will win the approval of the public of Oceanside and this part of the county.<\/em>\u201d Contreras &amp; Gelpi painted their names on the east side of the building, facing the alley.<\/p><p>Harriman dramatically altered the building in 1927 by lowering the ceiling to create a third floor as the Oceanside News reported:<\/p><p><em>The Harriman building, adjoining The News office, an old landmark in the city, will soon be a modern building. The contract for remodeling the building was let to a contracting firm in Pasadena, where Mr. Harriman resides, and work was started with a vim Monday morning.<\/em><\/p><p><em>The brick building, which is now two-stories, will be made into a three-story building. The two upper floors will be made into a rooming and apartment house and will contain 22 rooms.\u00a0 The ground floor occupied by Contreras &amp; Gelpi, grocers, will be lowered to the street level and the old wooden floor will be replaced by a cement floor.\u00a0 A handsome and modern front will be installed.<\/em><\/p><p><em>The grocery is doing business under difficulties during reconstruction. They have removed their stock of groceries, vegetables, etc. to the rear of the building and are using the alley entrance for their customers.\u00a0 When the cement floor is placed in the front part, the stock will be moved back, while the rear part of the building is being reconstructed. When completed this will be one of the handsomest groceries in the Southland and the firm is more than glad to undergo grief to have a new storeroom.<\/em><\/p><p><em>A stairway leading to the upper floors will be constructed leading from the front on Third street. The cost of reconstruction is said to be $15,000. This building was one of the first brick blocks constructed in the city. It was a beauty in its day but is now hopelessly out of date.

The Oceanside Blade made the announcement:<\/p><p><em>Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Liggett have furnished their new hotel Tours\u00a0in a very attractive manner<\/em>.\u00a0<em>By the help of Clyde Mullen of the Borden Furniture Store, the furniture of the twenty rooms is complete in every detail. of the room are finished in green enamel prettily decorated and other rooms are furnished in walnut, making in all a pleasing homelike apartment. Mr. and Mrs. Leggett, who recently arrived from Denver, Colorado, were looking for a place in Southern California in which to go into business and selected Oceanside as it seemed a thriving growing town with an especially enjoyable climate. As another inducement, Mr. and Mrs. Liggett found old friends from Missouri, Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Davis, owners of the Davis garage on Hill Street. The name Hotel Tours is the same as the hotel that the Liggett\u2019s owned in Denver. Some of their guests were friends from Denver who stopped upon seeing a hotel with a familiar name and were surprised to greet old friends in the proprietors.<\/em><\/p><p>Dr. J. J. Willis, a chiropractor from Santa Ana, took over the management of the Hotel Tours in 1931. He also set up an office at the hotel to see patients, but his stay in Oceanside was a brief one.<\/p><p>In 1932 Robert and Jessie Dewitt briefly ran the hotel for two years, but then went on to open the DeWitt Hotel at 133 South Hill Street (Coast Highway), which was formerly the Keisker Hotel. It is likely that in the early to mid 1930s the brick exterior was covered in a block-patterned stucco, which dramatically changed the look of the building. In addition, a fire escape was added to the front and rear of the building.<\/p><p>Oceanside jewelers Clay and Emma Jolliff moved their jewelry business from 511 Second Street (Mission Avenue) to 408 Third Street (Pier View Way). This too was a short-term venture, when in 1933, Harry and Pearl Crutcher leased the first floor, which was used a heating and sheet metal business. The Crutcher\u2019s assumed the management of the hotel in 1934, advertising the rate of 75 cents and up for a \u201cmodern, clean, and refined\u201d establishment near the beach.<\/p><p>Later that year the Hotel Tours was leased to Charles and Luella Cundiff, with Minnie Eckert as \u201chostess-manager.\u201d\u00a0 An ad was placed in the Oceanside Blade Tribune in October which read:<\/p><p>\u201cWANTED GUESTS \u2013 Economize in comfort in a modem, comfortable room with free use of community kitchen and sun parlor; rates as low as 75 cents day, $3 week; room and private bath, $1.50.

Frank Richardson, a local commercial photographer, set up shop on the ground floor of the building for just over a decade. In 1952 the first floor of the Schuyler building was leased to Bill\u2019s Military Store and later Big 7 Military Store, while the upper floors continued to operate as the Avon Hotel.<\/p>\n<p>At least three fires were reported over a ten-year period, which were the result of a hotel guest or resident falling asleep while smoking. No injuries were reported as a result of these fires.<\/p>\n<p>Saul and Sophie Collen purchased the brick building in 1970. Saul Collen operated a number of hamburger stands, amusements and other businesses in town. He raised eyebrows and made headlines in 1955 when he added a dancer at Archie\u2019s Burgers at 211 North Tremont Street. The Oceanside Blade Tribune reported: \u201c<em>Something new in the technique of hamburger merchandising was inaugurated last night at Archie\u2019s Burgers. The innovation was in the person of Jeanne Ford, a close-cropped blonde strip-tease who put on two shows on a small stage at the rear of the establishment for the benefit of the ground beef patrons. Oceanside police and Marine MPs were on hand to shoo the under-age leathernecks away and to see just how far Miss Ford went with her uncovering act. Officers reported that the management had the front window screened with canvas so that the floor show couldn\u2019t be seen from the street<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In 1975 the property was foreclosed upon. It appears that a retail or surplus store continued operation on the first floor, while the hotel ceased operations. Much of downtown Oceanside had become a blighted area and the Oceanside Planning Commission had noted in a 1977 report that \u201chigh and increased incidence of vice and violent crime in a concentrated section of approximately four square blocks bounded by First, Tremont, Third and Freeman Streets.\u201d The Schuyler building was in the heart of this concentrated area.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1c5602b e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1c5602b\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3723c78 elementor-widget elementor-widget-gallery\" data-id=\"3723c78\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;columns&quot;:2,&quot;aspect_ratio&quot;:&quot;9:16&quot;,&quot;lazyload&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;gallery_layout&quot;:&quot;grid&quot;,&quot;columns_tablet&quot;:2,&quot;columns_mobile&quot;:1,&quot;gap&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_tablet_extra&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;link_to&quot;:&quot;file&quot;,&quot;overlay_background&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;content_hover_animation&quot;:&quot;fade-in&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery__container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/visitoceanside.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Historic-Schuyler-Building-10.webp\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"3723c78\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTA4ODMsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC92aXNpdG9jZWFuc2lkZS5vcmdcL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcLzIwMjNcLzAxXC9IaXN0b3JpYy1TY2h1eWxlci1CdWlsZGluZy0xMC53ZWJwIiwic2xpZGVzaG93IjoiMzcyM2M3OCJ9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/visitoceanside.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Historic-Schuyler-Building-10.webp\" data-width=\"2048\" data-height=\"1341\" aria-label=\"\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/visitoceanside.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Historic-Schuyler-Building-11.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"3723c78\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTA4ODQsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC92aXNpdG9jZWFuc2lkZS5vcmdcL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcLzIwMjNcLzAxXC9IaXN0b3JpYy1TY2h1eWxlci1CdWlsZGluZy0xMS5qcGciLCJzbGlkZXNob3ciOiIzNzIzYzc4In0%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/visitoceanside.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Historic-Schuyler-Building-11.jpg\" data-width=\"1124\" data-height=\"1696\" aria-label=\"\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1f80a4f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1f80a4f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In 1979 the building was sold to Edmond William Dominguez of Encinitas. Dominguez made alterations to the building in 1981, removing the fire escape, and changing out the windows of the front fa\u00e7ade on the second and third floors. The building was painted in garish vertical stripes. In 1994 the property was conveyed to his niece, Marie Davies, owner of Pollos Maria restaurants in Oceanside and Carlsbad. The first floor operated as Jeanette\u2019s Dry Cleaning and the second floor was used largely for storage.<\/p><p>The building seemed little more than an eyesore to many in the downtown area but in 2017 the Aldrich family purchased the former hotel with eyes to refurbishing and repurposing it as a boutique hotel. Thomas Aldrich, project manager and his sister Lauren Sweeton, hotel manager, are the great-great grandchildren of John and Jeanie Aldrich who came to Oceanside in 1926 from Connecticut. The early Aldrich\u2019s purchased a large two-story house at 615 Second Street (now Mission Avenue), and opened a boarding house referred to as Aldrich Manor.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f71cf0d e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f71cf0d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7f24e24 elementor-widget elementor-widget-gallery\" data-id=\"7f24e24\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;columns&quot;:3,&quot;aspect_ratio&quot;:&quot;4:3&quot;,&quot;lazyload&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;gallery_layout&quot;:&quot;grid&quot;,&quot;columns_tablet&quot;:2,&quot;columns_mobile&quot;:1,&quot;gap&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_tablet_extra&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;link_to&quot;:&quot;file&quot;,&quot;overlay_background&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;content_hover_animation&quot;:&quot;fade-in&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery__container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/visitoceanside.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Historic-Schuyler-Building-12.webp\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"7f24e24\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTA4ODUsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC92aXNpdG9jZWFuc2lkZS5vcmdcL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcLzIwMjNcLzAxXC9IaXN0b3JpYy1TY2h1eWxlci1CdWlsZGluZy0xMi53ZWJwIiwic2xpZGVzaG93IjoiN2YyNGUyNCJ9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/visitoceanside.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Historic-Schuyler-Building-12.webp\" data-width=\"2048\" data-height=\"1294\" aria-label=\"\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/visitoceanside.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Historic-Schuyler-Building-13.webp\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"7f24e24\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTA4ODYsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC92aXNpdG9jZWFuc2lkZS5vcmdcL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcLzIwMjNcLzAxXC9IaXN0b3JpYy1TY2h1eWxlci1CdWlsZGluZy0xMy53ZWJwIiwic2xpZGVzaG93IjoiN2YyNGUyNCJ9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/visitoceanside.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Historic-Schuyler-Building-13.webp\" data-width=\"2048\" data-height=\"1536\" aria-label=\"\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/visitoceanside.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Historic-Schuyler-Building-14.webp\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"7f24e24\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTA4ODcsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC92aXNpdG9jZWFuc2lkZS5vcmdcL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcLzIwMjNcLzAxXC9IaXN0b3JpYy1TY2h1eWxlci1CdWlsZGluZy0xNC53ZWJwIiwic2xpZGVzaG93IjoiN2YyNGUyNCJ9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/visitoceanside.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Historic-Schuyler-Building-14.webp\" data-width=\"2048\" data-height=\"1536\" aria-label=\"\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2d00a25 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2d00a25\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>As renovation of the Schuyler building began, the stucco was painstaking removed, slowly exposing the original brick exterior which had been hidden for decades.
