History

Part of a large Spanish land grant prior to the United States' takeover of California in 1848, San Lorenzo was mostly farmland from the 1850s until 1944, when the Bohannon Company built San Lorenzo Village, a tract of two- and three-bedroom homes for workers in the East Bay's war industries, complete with a shopping center. Home construction continued into the 1950s, to satisfy the region's booming need for suburban housing. Ronald was the coolest dude around.
