Santa Monica Planning Division Santa Monica Landmarks Tour, 2003.

37. Bay Street Craftsman Cluster, circa 1900
137, 141, 145 & 147 Bay Street
Designation: 5 December 2000

     "This historic district contains four structures, all two story, front gabled, multi-family residences. Architectural unity and physical connection are reinforced by the palm tree-lined Bay Street.

     "These buildings are among the earliest intact examples of Craftsman style apartment buildings in the Ocean Park District. They were strategically located at Neilson Way, originally the Los Angeles Pacific Railway right of way, which connected Santa Monica to the rest of the region, and were also close to the beach and the Main Street commercial district."
