Inside San Luis Obispo

San Luis Obispo— tiłhini for the Northern Chumash—is the perfect way station between San Francisco and Los Angeles (which is why it also claims the world’s first motel). Architects from Julia Morgan to Frank Lloyd Wright, Warren Leopold, and Edla Muir designed buildings here, Joaquin Murieta held the town hostage; Jack Kerouac’s ghost haunts a local rooming house; and there is also a rich racial history, with extant Chumash dwellings, Chinatown, Japantown, and an African American hub.
