Also address Integrity) <br />The Walker House is architecturally significant as an intact example of the Spanish Colonial Revival style and for its unique <br />and distinctive style. The original owners appear to be Henry and Louise Walker who lived a half block to the east In 1926 at <br />2311 North Riverside Drive. The Walkers, Including sons Charles and James, moved often during their residence in Santa <br />Ana to approximately 5 different residences. Mr. Walker was a merchant/owner of Walker Liquor. They lived at this location <br />from 1931 until the mid-forties when the residence was purchased by David and Cath Howell, both attorneys. The Howells <br />lived at this residence until well into the 1950's with David retiring in 1952. The home changed ownership many times after the <br />Howell's owned it. <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 4.) <br />B11. Additional Resource Attributes: (List attributes and codes) <br />*B12.
