Schubert Hall

Built 1905
John D Spreckels Jr built Schubert Hall as a wedding present for his son. The Baroque house,
based on stone or brick European models, is constructed of wood and stucco.
Schubert Hall stands at the corner of Pacific and Laguna, two blocks north of Lafayette Park.
The house behind Schubert Hall (on the right in the photograph) is the Whittier Mansion, one block
up Laguna Street. The house next door to Schubert Hall (on the left in the photograph), is a stucco Georgian
Revival mansion used by Mr. Spreckels as a guest house for his primary residence.
