| Additional Information: | The Ritz Tavern building is a twentieth century structure relatively devoid of ornament. The facade is a red-brown brick. The building is of no significance architecturally. This building was originally a one-story frame building used as a saloon as depicted on the 1884 Sanborn-Perris. The present building is shown on the 1912 map. This building appears to have always been used as a saloon. |
