A Long Beach Craftsman in all its 1913 glory Sat, 21 Nov 2009 00:00:00 -0800 The Craftsman was free, the restoration wasn't. It took money and persistence to get back to its original beauty.
When Wendy Harn rescued her 1913 Craftsman from the wrecking ball in 1989, she didn't know much about the home except that it was free to anyone who would pay to move it. So she relocated the two-story, five-bedroom behemoth from Ocean Boulevard opposite the Long Beach Museum of Art to the Bluff Park Historic District. The distance was only nine-tenths of a mile, but it marked the beginning of a long, strange trip through the curious history of a house that's been, at various times, home to pillars of the community, frat boys and yoga enthusiasts.
