Building properties

1941 - 1974

  • Some adobe but mostly some unreinforced masonry (100% brick or lightweight brick walls with light concrete slabs as floors between stories).
  • Notable for several reasons:
    • Very high risk because of lack of reinforcing, even in 1 story.
    • Often thick walls with smaller windows.
    • Plain facades, usually in 1 vertical plain (not cantilevered over the street).
