Finishing Touches
Richmond, California
A part of the WWII Home Front, Shipyard No. 3, the general warehouse is a four-story building from which ships received their finishing touches: blankets, mops, brooms and all the other individual pieces of furnishings and equipment needed to completely fit out a self-contained floating vessel.
Note: Guests may walk by the building but it is viewable from the outside, only.
