History: The history of the Weber Bakery block at 121 East Mason Street, Santa Barbara, starts in 1930 with its construction by architect Henry W. Howell for Western Bakeries, marking the beginnings of Weber Company's operations. Over the decades, the building saw numerous modifications to meet operational demands, including expansions in 1937, awning additions and re-roofing in the 1940s, and significant infrastructure enhancements such as a flour elevator tower in 1949-50 and an underground gasoline tank in 1951. Further growth led to a warehouse and loading dock in 1959, and flour storage bins in 1961. The 1960s introduced gas outlets, lighting, and a significant store demolition in 1969. In 1970, restroom facilities were added for employees, and in 1983, the building was repaired from fire damage. Environmental compliance was addressed in 1995 with the removal of a 1,000-gallon underground gasoline tank. Adjacent, a Quonset hut erected in 1946 at 121 Santa Barbara Street serves as a post-World War II era reminder, emphasizing the era's utilitarian architectural approach. Today, these buildings symbolize the Funk Zone's transformation, reflecting Santa Barbara's industrial evolution and the community's adaptability. As Santa Barbara evolves, the story of these sites continues to be a vital chapter, demonstrating the city's ability to respect its past while navigating future changes, underpinning the enduring spirit and unique identity of Santa Barbara.
