2801 S Hoover St, Los Angeles, CA 90089
The Forthmann house was built around 1887 from a design by Burgess J. Reeve. The Victorian residence measured 4,200 square feet and originally stood at 629 W. 18th St. in Los Angeles. Its name remained attached to the house after a move to another address more than a century later. A separate structure, known as the Forthmann Carriage House, also survived a move from its original location. On November 23, 1988, the house moved to 1101 W. 28th St., an address later given as 2801 S. Hoover St. Its new location was in the North University Park Historic District of West Adams. The carriage house went to a different neighborhood, Angelino Heights, at 812 E Edgeware Rd. The main house became known as USC Community House, carrying another name into its life at the Hoover Street address.
