The historical bungalow when it operated as a French-inspired boutique (Maison en Provence)
Development, Mission Hills

Did You Know…

…that the “Little Red Bungalow” in the heart of Mission Hills that preservationists desperately tried saving has been demolished? It wasn’t until a recent drive-by that we noticed the adorable structure had gone poof.

Located at 820 Fort Stockton, the Craftsman-style house was razed to make way for an eight-story housing structure backed by Los Angeles developer Steven Yari. It was 111 years old and served as a residence, pet store and boutique over its long history, per our recent coverage of the painful battle between advocates and opponents of the bungalow’s fate. Development of the now-empty lot will reportedly begin early next year.
