Description: Home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Neace at 634 Aerick Street, in Inglewood, is boosted up on trestle work and ready to be hauled away to make room for a well. Many such residences are being removed as rapidly as the job can be done, to allow derrick materials and machinery to be erected by George F. Getty, Inc.
