The Wong K. Gew Mansion is a historic house located at 345 W. Clay St. in Stockton. The mansion was the home of Wong K. Gew, a Chinese immigrant and a successful gambler and proprietor of gaming houses. When Wong built his home in 1921, anti-Asian laws required that he build his home south of Main Street. The mansion was designed by Losekann and Clowdsley in a mainly Federal Revival style typical of large houses of the era. The design included a veranda and a second-floor balcony on the front of the house, boxed cornices with brackets and friezes on the eaves and walls, and three gabled dormers; the interior of the house includes a fireplace with a $2,200 Yum Nan marble mantle.
The Wong K. Gew Mansion was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 20, 1978.
