The Pacific Grove Chamber of Commerce started as the Board of Trade in the late
1890s, and changed its name in 1915. During its early years, its offices were in this
octagonal building. Here it sits in Jewell Park near the tennis courts, across the street
from where the Museum's octagonal building was situated.
