 These
long rectangular-shaped, single-story or split-level houses
predominate in
the suburbs of the late 1950s and 1960s. They have very low pitched or
hipped roofs, which cover one- or
two-car
attached garages. The ridge poles of these houses
are parallel to
the
streets, and hence these houses requiring large, expensive lots. This
style comes in simple, inexpensive and expensive forms, depending on the
materials used, as the photos show: |
 cutstone & cedar shake roof, Third Ward |
 narrow red bricks, Third Ward |
 large rectangular picture window, Third Ward |
 pink and/or turquoise colored siding or trim is typical of the 1950s, Third Ward
|
 Most California Ranch houses have these features:  1 story long, rectangular volumes hipped roofs ridge pole parallel to the street
|
