Title A name given to the resource Hutchinson Post Office 1884 now Land Co Block Fresno California Subject The topic of the resource Hutchinson, Charles G.; Hutchinson Building (Fresno, Calif.) -- Photographs.; Office buildings -- California -- Fresno County -- Photographs.; Post office buildings -- California -- Fresno County -- Photographs; Fresno County (Calif.) -- Buildings, structures, etc. -- 19th century -- Photographs. Description An account of the resource Picture of Hutchinson Post Office in Fresno, taken in 1884, located in the two-story Hutchinson Block, currently the location of the Security Bank Building at Mariposa and Fulton Streets. The Hutchinson Block was built by Charles G. Hutchinson, a San Francisco capitalist, as part of a surge of "block" building with most of the structures named for their builders. Construction began in 1883 and completed in 1885. Adjoining property owners began the practice of subsidizing the post office for the purpose of attracting business up Mariposa Street. The post office had been farther west toward the Southern Pacific Railroad station. Property owners paid the rent for the post office in the new Hutchinson Building for a number of years. This building was extensively remodeled in 1889 by the Fresno Loan and Savings Bank, with two additional stories and an elevator. The bank became insolvent in 1895 and the building was demolished in 1923 to make way for the Pacific Southwest (later, Security Bank) Building.
