Arellanes-Kirk Adobe
421 East Figueroa Street

This small hilltop house was built c. 1860 for the family of Barbara Dominguez de Arellanes and Francisco Arellanes, descendants of some of the earliest settlers of New Spain. Their daughter, Maria de las Angustias, married Frank Kirk in 1866, and the couple occupied the adobe for a time. During the past one hundred years, the residence has been preserved by several local owners.
