Description:
Samuel and Alice Armor House, 363 South Orange Street, Orange, California, 2003. Image shows front view of the Craftsman
bungalow which was originally designed and constructed in 1913 for the Armors by the Orange Contracting and Milling Company.
Samuel Armor was on the Orange City Council and County Board of supervisors, and later constructed the Armor Building. Alice
Armor published the Orange Post newspaper from 1892-1915. This is a one-story bungalow with a double, front-facing gable roof
and wide lap siding on the facades. Elephantine piers on brick bases support the entry porch covered by the forwardmost roof,
and a small mullioned transom is set into the gable face. A photograph of the home was featured on page 50 of "Beautiful Orange
Homes," a promotional brochure from the early 1920s that featured examples of design and construction by Orange Contracting
& Milling Company. House was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.
