The Waterland-Breslauer Building is the big salmon colored building at the corner of Fourth and Broadway. At the time it was built, it was one of the most modern structures in Northern California. It was built on the former site of the Chico Presbyterian Church which moved to First and Broadway. Captain John S. Waterland was one of the primary organizers of the Butte Investment Company. This company bought the Chico Presbyterian Church property and later sold the corner, eighty by one hundred feet, for the Waterland-Breslauer Building. The rest of the block facing Broadway was occupied by the Broadway Theater Building, and the block facing Fourth Street, by the Park Garage.
The entrance to office space is to the left of Chico Paper Company on Broadway. Upon walking in you're greeted with marble walls and, of course, a business directory. It has an elevator and is four stories tall. There are a lot of law offices in this building.
