Description

As the population of the Los Angeles region grew in the early 1920s, developers purchased land that was formerly ranches to turn into housing developments. Merrick & Ruddick developed the San Fernando Valley area, and asked Stacy-Judd to design and build houses for speculation and for their clients. Most of the houses in the Hollywood Foothill subdivision near Ventura Boulevard were in the Spanish Revival or traditional styles. But some were designed in the Pueblo Revival style that Stacy-Judd made famous.
