Fillmore
Lemon Ass'n Lemon PH (Ref. 3)
Address: 348
A Street
The
packinghouse consists of the older building shown above (from the southwest) and a newer warehouse.
Only the warehouse seemed to be in use.
The
Fillmore
Lemon Ass'n
also had a box and
fertilizer warehouse south of the PH on the opposite side of the SP's
Santa paula Branch. The
building has been demolished and the location is now filled
with houses.
For
additional views of this PH when it still had the canopy over
the loading doors, plus photos of
Bob Smaus' model, see the earlier Fillmore PH web page.

Fillmore had another PH west

It was located at 311 Central

demolished. In 1957 it was called the Ventura
County Citrus Ass'n (Ref. 2) while earlier it was the Ventura
County Orange & Lemon Ass'n (Ref. 3). The
location is now an
apartment house.

(Ref. 3)
Address:
114
Palm Ave
The view above shows the south side of the ex-PH.
- Here's a closer view of the receiving dock on the west side.
- It had a
separate office
(now a realty office) on the opposite side of the
street.
- The packing
house name is still visible on the west side.
- I
conjectured the PH might have a sawtooth roof behind the façade.
A Google satellite image verified this.
- Closeup of a trackside loading door.
- Bill Messecar took this photo from the southeast in 2004.

American Fruit Growers Orange PH
(Ref. 3)
The view above is from the southwest. Some American
Fruit Growers PHs packed
under the Blue Goose brand.
- We weren't
sure
this was an former PH when we
first saw it but a Sanborn map verified that it was. A Google
satellite image shows a partial-sawtooth roof behind the facade.

This is
an active PH. We first
thought it was a modern PH but later discovered it had an older,
sawtooth-roof
building in the center. Its
location made it difficult to photograph.
