The Moyse Building, also known as the Gray Building is a historic building north of the Civic Center at 13150 Seventh Street, Chino, CA 91710.  Built in 1887, it is the oldest surviving building in the City.  The building has served in several business capacities within the City and has played a part in history as being occupied by several firsts in the building such as:
  • City's First School (1888)
  • Chino's Fist Post Office (1909)
  • First Telephone Connection
  • First Communal Thanksgiving Celebration
Today, the building is owned by the City of Chino and housed the Chino Valley Chamber of Commerce.  The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 28, 1979, NRHP Reference #79000522.
