The Ontario Power Company constructed this building in approximately 1907. The man and woman pictured are thought to be W.D. and Mrs. Kingery. The building and site are associated with San Antonio Water Company, Ontario Water and Power Company (est. 1895), Hotpoint, and the General Electric Company. The Ontario Water and Power Company later became the main office for Southern California Edison until the 1950s when it was sold to the City of Ontario. The property has since been adaptively reused and is currently home to the Chaffey Community Museum of Art. #125to125 #CelebrateOntario
