Neutra and completed in 1953.","why_significant":"The nomination presents the house as a notable mid-century work by Richard Neutra, designed together with the adjacent Moore residence as a \"double house\" composition. It combines characteristic Neutra features with a sloped roof and materials that suit the Ranch-style neighborhood's restrictions. The form also notes its very high integrity and excellent condition.","narrative":"Completed in 1953 at 5561 East La Pasada Street in Long Beach, this roughly 2,100-square-foot house was designed by Richard J. Neutra for Olan and Aida Hafley. It sits in Park Estates, a postwar tract of custom homes mostly in the Ranch style, and Neutra planned it with the neighboring Moore residence as a \"double house.\" The two dwellings share a pergola, garden walls and a unified street face, yet each is oriented for privacy. The Hafley House has a two-story front-gable volume over the garage and a longer one-story volume behind. Its low-pitched cedar-shingle roof, stucco and redwood siding respond to the neighborhood's design restrictions, while steel-framed glazing, built-in cabinetry, a central fireplace and sloped interior ceilings reflect Neutra's mid-century approach. The nomination argues for its significance as a well-preserved Neutra design. Contractor David E. Harper built both houses at the same time, and the house remains in excellent condition with a high degree of integrity.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":"Richard J.
