Also address integrity) <br /> The Levengood House is architecturally significant as a representative example of the Spanish Colonial Revival style, one of <br /> many that characterize the Wilshire Square neighborhood. The house and garage were constructed in 1930 at a cost of <br /> $3,650.00 for Mrs. Mary Leavengood, who had occupied the residence by 1931. The house remained in the Levengood <br /> family until at least 1952,according to city building permits. According the 1991 Wilshire Square Home Tour brochure, Mary <br /> Levengood was the widow of Frank Levengood, a farmer who struck oil in his bean fields. Mrs. Levengood raised her <br /> granddaughter in this house, and lived here until she died in the late 1950s. She also built the house next door, on the <br /> corner, for her son. <br /> (See Continuation Sheets 3 and 4.) <br /> 611.
