Westwood Park Bungalows
Neighborhood: Westwood Park
Description
In the late 1800s, the Arts & Crafts Movement emerged as a backlash to the Industrial Revolution and the frilly, lacy Victorian Era. The Arts & Crafts Movement stressed the beauty of nature and creativity of the individual craftsman. “Bungalows” were an offshoot of the movement, with their compact and efficient floor plans, making home ownership affordable for the middle class.
In San Francisco, Westwood Park was established in 1917 as a post-1906 earthquake neighborhood of more than 650 bungalows for residents such as accountants, store managers and police officers.
