Vásquez House, Adobe house in Monterey, United States
Located at 546 Dutra Street, this two-story adobe building features thick mud-brick walls and includes both original adobe and wooden additions.
The house was purchased in 1834 by María Guadalupe Cantúa, mother of Tiburcio Vásquez, who later became a notorious California bandit in the 1870s.
The structure represents early California architecture, combining traditional adobe construction methods with later modifications reflecting changing building styles.
The City of Monterey now uses the building as administrative offices for its Parks and Recreation Department, with ADA-compliant parking available.
The building underwent significant modifications in 1925, adding a wooden second story while maintaining its original ground-floor adobe structure.
