The Butte store is the only structure still standing of the original
stonemason.[1][3] It is made of brick and fieldstone from Calaveras. It also has three doors made of iron.[3] Xavier Benoist used it as a store and bakery.[2] The building served as a post office. It was also a general store called Ginocchio's. The Ginnochio family owned it for 50 years. It closed in the 1900s.[3] It is a California Historical Landmark.[2]
