In the 1890s, a wood-framed building was built on C Street and served as a Chinese temple. A sign over the door read "Liet Sing Gung" (Temple of Many Deities). The replica building will be based on the 1950s photo shown below.

Rebuilding History: This replica building and its exhibits will honor enduring Chinese American contributions to this region's history. Visitors will first see the original altar and other historic furnishings, and then in an adjoining room, the Hip Sing Tong altar and other historical exhibits.
