Designed by William H. Ellison and completed in 1919.","why_significant":"The bakery is locally significant under Criterion A for its link to Emeryville's shift between 1907 and 1930 from an entertainment-based economy to an industrial one. It became one of the city's largest employers and kept operating there until 1974. Its Spanish Colonial elements also reflect the 1920s turn toward historicist styles.","narrative":"Remar Bakery is a brick industrial building at 1010 46th Street, straddling the Emeryville and Oakland line. Designed by William H. Ellison and finished in 1919, it has two stuccoed stories, Chicago-style windows, flat stylized pilasters and a central four-story tower with a corbelled cornice. The site was chosen for its position beside the Santa Fe main line and Key System trains, which made shipping and commuting easy. The bakery opened in June 1919, merged with Berkeley's Golden Sheaf Company in 1922, and by 1930 employed about 150 people with a $400,000 payroll. It was listed for its role in Emeryville's change from racetrack and amusement-park economy to a manufacturing center. Later owners added several non-compatible wings, and the bakery operated until 1974. A rehabilitation in 2000-2002 removed those additions, restored the tower and cornice, and converted the interior into residential lofts while keeping the open ceilings, columns and reception room.","period_of_significance":"1919-1930","architect_builder":"Ellison, W.H./Whitton, Frederick","architectural_style":"Late 19th and Early 20th Century Revivals: Spanish Colonial Revival","criteria":["A"],"status_note":"Rehabilitated in 2000-2002 into residential units (multiple dwelling), with non-historic additions removed and the tower and cornice restored.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:27.572644-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_CA/02000328.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/02000328/5ff2f7c43e-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/02000328/5ff2f7c43e-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Sanfranman59","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Remar_Bakery_(Emeryville,_CA).JPG\" rel=\"noopener\">Sanfranman59</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Remar_Bakery_(Emeryville,_CA).JPG"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/123858332","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q133252076"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/california/alameda-county/remar-bakery-02000328/"}
