Naval Supply Annex Stockton, Cafeteria, Southeast corner of Daly Drive & Cromwell Avenue, Stockton, San Joaquin County, CA
Summary
Significance: Building 607 is a contributing element of the Naval Supply Annex Stockton Historic District. The historic district was determined eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places under criteria A and C, for its role in supplying the fleet during World War II and as an important example of new warehouse design developed during World War II. Specifically, Naval Supply Annex Stockton was the first Navy supply depot to be built entirely to accommodate palletized cargo. Building 607 is not directly related to the palletized cargo handling operation or other supply functions. It was, however, a support building for the depot, serving as a cafeteria for workers in the warehouse district of the base.
