Built in 1887 as part of the first wave of development in Angelino Heights, this home is in the classic Queen Anne Victorian style with the decorative shapes and patterns associated with the era.

Developed over a period of thirty years beginning in 1890 through the 1920s, 2504-2508 East First Street consists of a residence and commercial building significant for their associations with the history of Japanese Americans in Boyle Heights.
Built for industrialist Henry Pinney and occupied by his son until 1980, this home features fish-scale shingles, intricate fretwork, and enclosed eaves with decorative brackets, which were typical of the period.
This small Queen Anne-style cottage is a 'plan book" house, build from a kit ordered from a catalog. Though modest, it has many of the same decorative touches as its neighbors.
