May 10, 1869 - May 10, 2019

14 Room
Victorian Mansion
Built 1881

Completing the last link in the Transcontinental Railroad with a spike of gold was the brainchild of David Hewes. A friend of California Governor. Leland Stanford, he provided the golden spike used in the dedication on May 10, 1869. This one event, joining the east and west by rail, opened up the west and started a new era for both California and for America.

The Hewes house can be seen in Historic Old Town Tustin at the corner
of Main and B Streets. It is currently a private residence.
