Jimmy’s Oriental Gardens and the Chung Family Home Added to National Register of Historic Places

Body

Today the California State Historical Resources Commission voted to add Jimmy’s Oriental Gardens and the Chung Family Home at 126 E Canon Perdido St to the National Register of Historic Places under the Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders in CA 1850-1995 MPS. These buildings are the last remaining buildings from Santa Barbara’s historic Chinatown, and their addition to the National Register celebrates SB’s Chinese heritage and the contributions of Chinese immigrants to this community. We are honored to have prepared the nomination form for these architecturally and culturally significant buildings.
