Description
Photograph of the McCoy (Hazel?) House by the Old Plaza in San Diego, 1915. The two-story home stands behind a picket fence and features a wraparound porch on the first level shaded by an overhang. Two doors are visible at the entrance, with one window to the left. Four windows are visible across the broad side of the second floor, with three on the narrow. A leafless tree and other vegetation obscure the house to the right. The road in front appears to be unpaved. A utility pole is partially visible in the left background. McCoy possibly refers to writer and architect, Esther McCoy (1904-1989) who settled back into Southern California in 1930 after a period in Paris. She is cited as having written influential essays on Richard Neutra, Rudolph M. Schindler, Craig Ellwood and Charles Green.
