Also address integrity) <br /> <br />The H.A. Smith House is architecturally significant as a characteristic example of the front facing gable variant of the Tudor <br />Revival architectural style. It was built in 1931 for $3,500 by prominent developer and builder Roy Roscoe Russell (1881-1965). <br />Along with developer and builder Allison Honer (1897-1981), Roy Russell was credited as a subdivider and builder of a major <br />portion of northwest Santa Ana. An early Russell project was his 1928 subdivision of Victoria Drive between West Nineteenth <br />Street and West Santa Clara Avenue. The H.A. Smith House was first sold to Mr. and Mrs. H.A. Smith in 1932 and they lived <br />on the property until mid-1950s. The property was sold to C.H. Fuller in 1955,who briefly resided on the property before selling <br />it to J. Stodola in 1957. Little information is available regarding occupancy of the residence from 1960-1990's. However, during <br />the 1990s Steven and Kathleen Cooper bought the property and resided there until 2021, when the property was sold to the <br />current homeowners. <br /> <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 3.) <br /> <br />B11.
