1333 E. Kettleman Lane - Plummer Auto Mall - Buick - Cadillac - Plummer Automall closed its doors February 23, 2009 making it the second major
auto dealer in Lodi to succumb to the souring economy and putting 59 people out of work. The dealership's president, Dennis Plummer, said
"he had deep regret over closing the business and that he went to great lengths trying to re-negotiate the commitments with the General
Motors Acceptance Corporation and Farmers and Merchants Bank but ultimately was unsuccessful.
He noted that in 2008 the company generated $975,000 in sales tax revenue for the city of Lodi and San Joaquin County. Plummer's closure
follows that of Geweke Chrysler Jeep Dodge, which ceased operations earlier in the month. As with Geweke, rumors of Plummer's demise had been
circulating throughout the city for weeks prior to the dealership's announcement. The auto industry were one of the hardest hit sectors of the
economic downturn, and the industry's struggles can be seen as local dealerships close their doors. |

the early and mid-1990s. Despite its apparent success, the company created much debt to finance its expansion. In 1998, they filed for
Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The company was purchased by McDonald's in 2000 who initially purchased the company for its real estate holdings, but
found the brand serviceable and continued to operate and expand the chain. In August 2007, McDonald's sold the chain to Sun Capital Partners. |

1150 W. Kettleman - Compass Bank - First built around 1887, the structure was the home of Stanlee Beckman, whose family settled much of Lodi
in the late 1880s. The house and surrounding Vineyards were sold to a developer in 1979. In 1981, a group wanted to tear it down and build
something more modern. Instead, it was decided it was worth preserving with a goal of maintaining the Victorian Era residential architecture,
but make it more professionally useable as a bank. Currently, it is a branch of Compass Bank. |
