The building is three stories and was built in 1907 and named the Mission Central. In 1924, it became the Hotel Valencia. By 1976, the building was a mess and a local disgrace. So, in 1984, it was renamed the Valencia Inn, and operated as a bed & breakfast. In 1985-86, the building was repainted and refurbished as Casa Valencia. It was owned and operated by Mission Housing Development & Neighborhood Corporation. The ground floor remains rental commercial spaces.
