Spec House #1
Architects: John Reed & Sim Bruce Richards (1954)
Location: 946 Bangor (Point Loma), San Diego
Also known as the John Reed Residence, Slocum Residence and triangle house. From the street, it is evident that this series of boxes is influenced by California Modernism, while from the valley below its Wrightian window assemblage is quite the opposite. John lived in the house for a short time following its completion. 1990 second story addition, interior renovation and structural changes were done by San Diego architect Steven Lombardi. Theatrical siting of this house can be seen from Talbot (canyon below).
