Northwood Neighborhood Princess Homes by Ralph Haver for Rich Construction Company

West of 12th Street between Glendale and Northern. A sister neighborhood to Regents Park.



Northwood is conveniently located on the 12th Street Corridor near many other Haver-designed projects including an elementary school, a bank and his own office building. Haver truly adored and respected women, so much he considered their needs in home design; first by positioning the front door in the carport for ease of grocery and errands. Homes started at $12,000 and featured 3 bedrooms and 1 1/2 bathrooms. Original photos and ads from the era are available here.
