Update: May 9, 6 p.m. Congratulations to reader David Block, first to identify the eaves as belonging to the Vital Building, which used to house El Cerrito Mill & Lumber and was moved across the street. We haven't tracked this, but he may have set a record for the fastest answer, coming at 4 a.m., an hour and four minutes after the story was published.
Welcome to the latest installment of El Cerrito Patch's irregularly published Mystery Photo contest. We will give a prize to the first reader to identify the whereabouts of these distinguished eaves in El Cerrito or Kensington by putting the answer in the comments section below this article.

The legal fine print: There is a limit of two prizes per person for the Mystery Photo contest. Open to legal residents of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia who are 18 and older. The applicable parts of the Official Rules for Patch giveaway contests govern this contest.
I was wondering who would remember that it was the upgraded El Cerrito Mill building. I miss El Cerrito Mill - the shop area alone was a museum for woodworkers. Huge machines and they could whip out any custom moulding you wanted even if it required a custom-made cutter.
