| | HARRIS-LASS MUSEUM (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26) |
 | | Constructed prior to the continuation of Market St., the earliest reference to this site is found in the J.J. Bowen 1866 Survey of Santa Clara, with a house, barn, and orchard noted as ‘improvements’ to the property. |
 | | The house was built by Henry and Mary Harris, whose son Albert, a vice-president of the Santa Clara Valley Bank, lived there until 1906. |
 | | The interior, which has been restored to represent the period of Captain Lass” occupancy, features a striking double parlor, and Albert Harris’ safe may be seen in the basement of the house. |
