Biographical / Historical
The Sonoma Cheese Factory, located on the Sonoma Plaza, at 2 West Spain Street, Sonoma, California. Although the Sonoma Cheese Factory was founded in 1931, the idiosyncratic deco landmark on Spain Street was built by co-founder Celso Viviani and his son, Pete, in 1945. Cheese was last made at the location in 2001, though the brand continued to be produced from other dairies. David Viviani, the eldest son, operated the location as a deli into the 1970s, when his father returned from Mexico to take back the business. ( Sonoma Index-Tribune, September 3, 2020
