The Ah.Louis store was built and owned by'Ah Louis, the central figure and pioneer entrepeneur throughout the history of San Luis Obispo's Chinatown. A labor contractor, farmer,.rancher and brick manufacturer, Ah Louis contracted from China many of the workers who helped build the Pacific Coast Railroad. He was born in China in 1838 and came to California in 1856. Ah Louis eventually became the unofficial mayor, postmaster, employer, banker, storekeeper and advisor for the residents of Chinatown until his death in 1936. Replacing an earlier wood frame building erected on the same site in.1874, the present store was built in 1884 with bricks from his own factory.. Supposedly steel shutters and ..zinc for the roof were imported from England and used for protection. It is said that Louis personally checked every phase of construction. The Ah Louis General Merchandise Store was patronized by some several hundred Chinese employees who had migrated to this area, not only to purchase supplies and goods but to use as a bank. In 1931, as modern storefront facades became fashionable on commercial buildings, two plate glass windows were installed in front of the building for $250.00. Today, the Ah Louis Store, now a State Historical Landmark Number 802, offers imports and gift it to local residents and tourists alike. a 20.

After the great enterprise was achieved and the nation had its first transcontinental route, Ah Louis settled down in San Luis Obispo and began an import business in h_is own store which he built with his own two hands from bricks he made himself, with brick from his own brick yard. He also made the bricks £or,the Pacific Round House and the Sin- sheimer Building. To go back to the beginning, Ah Louis at the age of 21 was known as Wong On. He left a village:in'China to search for gold,on the west -coast of America. In 1860 he arrived in California. He got the name Ah Louis from John Harford.

At'Christmas time he advertised holiday goods. Fie also showed recognition of the Fourth of July by decorating his store. It.was in 1885, that Ah Louis drew up a contract with Mr. Alfred Walker to build a new brick store on the corner of Palm and Chorro Streets.
