City Beneath Your Feet


Visit the
Sing Lee Chinese Laundry Exhibit
The (Hotel) Stockton
133 E. Weber Avenue, Downtown Stockton

Chinese Laundry DigIn the 19th century, the site of what is now the City Centre Cinemas was at the heart of Stockton’s first Chinatown. In 2000, archaeologists excavated and uncovered the site of the Sing Lee Laundry that was operated by Chinese immigrants from the 1890s to the 1930s.

The dedication of this exhibit is the culmination of months of work and a celebration of the preservation of our history.
