Tevis Block, Office building in Bakersfield, United States.
The Tevis Block stands as a two-story, U-shaped structure made of imported fire brick, featuring a south-facing facade with fanlight windows and terra cotta arches.
Built in 1893, this building became a central part of Bakersfield's commercial development and remained stable through the 1952 Kern County earthquake.
The structure represents Second Renaissance Revival architecture with differentiated floor designs, rectangular basement windows, and decorated cornices that reflect late 19th-century building practices.
Located at 1712 19th Street in Bakersfield, California, the Tevis Block occupies 0.4 acres of land and maintains its original purpose as an office building.
The building contains vertically divided two-sash windows on the first floor enhanced by detailed brickwork and single-light sash windows with radiating bricks on the second floor.
