Description
Exterior view of the Dodge House, located at 950 Kings Road in what is now West Hollywood, showing the driveway, portion of the building and sign at the entrance which reads: "Frank Wiggins Trade School's Household Service Training Center." The house was built in 1914-1916 by architect Irving Gill. This photo shows the Dodge House after it was purchased by the L.A. Board of Education and transferred to the L.A. Junior College District. The house was used as an outreach center for "Frank Wiggins Household Service Training". Described by Thomas S. Hines as "Gill's masterpiece," it was demolished in 1970.
