Notes On May 17, 1909, the Western Pacific applied for a permit from the city of Oakland to build a passenger Depot at 3rd and Washington Streets. The permit shows W.H. Mohr as the architect, with a value of $36,045.00 plus $10,000.00 for further improvements in and around the building. Mr. Mohr specialized in the Mission Revival style of depots. The depots for the larger towns along the Western Pacific are of the Mission style. It appears the design for Oakland was changed before construction was started. My research has turned up conflicting information as to who actually designed the Depot. The Oakland Tribune lists both Willis Polk and the D.H. Burnham Co. of Chicago as the architects. Images
