Also address integrity) <br /> <br />The Masin House is architecturally significant as one of the few Craftsman style homes in the Wilshire Square neighborhood. <br />Although the Craftsman style continued to be popular into the early 1920s, most home builders in the area chose to use the <br />revival styles that had become fashionable during that decade. This house and garage were constructed in 1925 at a cost of <br />$4,000.00. The owner, George Styring, was a building contractor, and probably made the improvements himself as an <br />investment, since the house was immediately sold to Joseph and Muriel Masin. Mr. Masin was a pharmacist at the Santa <br />Ana Drug Company. From 1931, only Mrs. Masin appears in the city directories as the occupant; she continued to reside at <br />this address until at least 1948, according to the building permit records. <br /> <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 4.) <br /> <br />B11.
