History

Wilshire Square’s first residence was constructed in 1915. Most of the houses were built between 1922 and 1931, with the second phase of construction occurring between 1935 and 1942. After that, very few residences were developed, though some were completed as late as the 1950s. The neighborhood’s appeal is enhanced by its broad tree-lined streets, historical street lighting, and vast lawns and gardens.

The residences in the area were designed with Arts & Crafts flair by master artisans. The homes are built in Tudor Revival, Spanish Colonial, and California Bungalow styles, which were fashionable at the period. Although the homes are identical, each one was specially made, so they all reflect the personalities of the original owners and builders. In many situations, you’ll see the effect of previous owners who conducted delicate home renovation, remodeling, and additional projects. (Source: wilshiresquare.org)
