325 Ohio Place – “San Juan El Dorado” Apartments

325 Ohio Place, circa. 2006

The apartment building at 325 Ohio Place, also constructed circa 1925, is another representative of the Mission style and remains largely unaltered. The two-story building has a flat roof surrounded by a shaped parapet pierced by “canales” (terracotta gutters). According to the Sanborn Maps, the main body of the house rests on a continuous tile foundation, indicating that the residence is constructed of hollow clay tile. The main entrance is approached by a short flight of concrete steps flanked stuccoed knee walls. The doorway is sheltered by a pent roof surfaced with barrel tiles. The main fenestration of the building consists of single and paired 1/1-light double himg wood sash window. Slender arched window openings light the central hallway inside the building.
