  • City of Palm Springs Citywide Historic Context Statement & Survey Findings
    282 THEME: POST-WORLD WAR II MULTI-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT (1945-1969) Overview This theme explores the design and construction of mid-20th century multi-family residences in Palm Springs, from the immediate postwar period through 1969. While the emphasis in residential construction in Palm Springs following the war was decidedly in favor of single- family homes, a number of apartment buildings were constructed in the immediate postwar period. Apartments were typically found on Palm Canyon Drive, Indian Canyon Drive, Arenas Road, and Tamarisk Road. Significant architects and designers associated with multi-family residential development from this period include Clark & Frey, A. Quincy Jones, Wexler & Harrison, William Krisel, Paul Thoryk, Hai Tan, H.W. Burns, and many others. Developers include Rossmoor Corporation, Phillip Short and Associates, William Bone, and Jack and Richard Weiss. As a result of increased demand for housing, post-World War II multi-family residential development in Palm Springs took a variety of forms including garden apartments, large low-rise multi-building communities (including early condominium projects), split-level attached townhomes, and attached and semi-attached residences in clusters as small as two and as many as eight. In virtually every configuration, the focus of the design was around the pool (or pools as the scale of the developments increased). A rare example of wartime multi-family housing in Palm Springs is Bel Vista (1945-47, Clark & Frey). Throughout the country, wartime housing projects were invariably the only building projects not stalled by the onset of World War II. Bordered by E. Chia Road on the north, Sunrise Way on the east, Tachevah Drive on the south, and N.
