Notes:
The General Store was built in 1880, shortly after the town of Los Alamos, California was founded in 1876. Los Alamos was a major stage coach stop on the route that ran from San Luis Obispo to Santa Barbara. The General Store is one of the oldest buildings in town. In 1882, the echo of horses hooves from the stage coach diminished with the replacement of the long whistling and rhythmic sounds of the Pacific Coast Railway.
The General Store was purchased in 1900 by Max King and renamed "The Emporium." The new store was transformed into a department store. However, the following year the Southern Pacific Rail Road built a wider-gauge track from San Luis Obispo to Santa Barbara bypassing the town of Los Alamos. With the development of the new railway, the Pacific Coast Railway could not compete with the larger railway company and eventually closed down its operations in 1934.
