Northside - City of Riverside

The remaining individually eligible properties located at 3380 Russell Street in the
Southeast Quadrant; 3787 Shamrock Avenue, 3307 Spruce Street, 3320 Spruce Street,
and 3676 Strong Street in the North of SR-60 area; and 2357 Wilshire Street in File’s
Island characterize the survey area of modest, urban-scaled one- and one-and-a-half
story dwellings in the Craftsman Bungalow style constructed in the early 20 th
century. Some rural, or agricultural-related residences are extant from this era of
larger size and accompanying parcels, as exemplified in 3676 Strong Street.
Responding to the acute housing needs of a doubled population from 1910 to 1930,
most residences of this time are necessarily small in scale to accommodate more
dwellings within the 30 tracts subdivided between 1903 and 1926. These Craftsman
Bungalows typify the character-defining features of the style such as wide,
overhanging eaves, exposed rafters, and prominent porches.
