Also address integrity) The Freund House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Mission Revival style house in Santa Ana. The original building permit, for the address range 1001-1003 North Olive Street, is dated September 8, 1924 and indicates it was built as double apartments and garages, at a cost of $6, 000. The original architect and builder are unknown. At an unknown date, the residential unit fronting loth Street changed addresses from 1003 North Olive Street to 915 West loth Street. Because of the unclear address history, city directory research was only completed for the 1001 North Olive Street address. The earliest known occupant is Charles Freund, who is listed on the original building permit for 1001 North Olive Street. City directories note Mr. Freund as the building's owner through 1926. An obituary article notes Freund was an interior decorator that had lived in Santa Ana between 1918 and 1945, the year he died (The Register, August 23, 1945). In 1927, T T Lackey and in 1930, J R Ott resided at the subject property. Mrs. K A O'Brien is listed from circa 1933-1935. Tenant Bales Redmond is noted in 1936. By 1937, R U Smith occupied the unit. City directories note G W Wilkins from circa 1940-1945, and a newspaper article notes Wilkins remained through 1949 (The Register, March 10, 1949). There was no directory available for 1948. In 1949 Mrs. E Hollingsworth is identified as a building tenant, who remained until she died in 1956 (The Register, October 22, 1956). P V Plummer also occupied the unit in 1956 (See Continuation Sheet 3). B11. Additional Resource Attributes: (List attributes and codes) *1312. References: (See Continuation Sheet 4 of 5.) B13.
