Red Rest & Red Roost (1894)

Noted as the progenitors to the California Bungalow, they were listed on the National Register in the 1970's, they sit suffering from demolition by neglect. SOHO petitioned the City of San Diego to enforce their new preservation code that addresses this issue. A reluctant city finally issued a notice of violation in April with a 30-day clock running for compliance. With its neighbor, the 1894 Brockton Villa, on the same block having been restored and reused as a successful restaurant and coffee business, one wonders why these rough gems can't be restored and adaptively reused.
