The McDougalls: A Family of Architects in Bakersfield

On July 7, 1889, a massive fire consumed most of Bakersfield. Gone were fifteen blocks, 147 businesses, 44 homes, 5 hotels, and about 1,500 people were left homeless. Rebuilding Bakersfield after what came to be called “The Great Fire” was rapid. Less than a year after the fire, California Superintendent of Public Education commented, “No better evidence is needed of the energy, enterprise and true pluck of the people of Bakersfield, than the fact that since the great fire, there has been completed, or are now in process of completion $620,000 worth of new and substantial buildings.”

To complete the work, architects, contractors, carpenters, and brickworkers flocked to Bakersfield. Having already designed two substantial buildings in Bakersfield, one architectural firm was well situated to take advantage of Bakersfield’s post-fire building boom. McDougall and Son had come to Bakersfield in 1888 to design two buildings - the Southern Hotel (Chester Avenue and 19th Street) and Kern Valley Bank (Chester Avenue and 18th Street). The fire destroyed the Southern Hotel, which was completed in March, and only the walls were left of the Kern Valley Bank, which was under construction at the time of the fire. Soon after the cinders cooled, construction of the Southern Hotel and Kern Valley Bank resumed, and both were completed in 1890. McDougall and Son was the architectural firm chosen in the majority of instances following the fire, and, as noted by The San Francisco Call, immediately following the fire “erected some thirty buildings there to replace those burned down.”

McDougall and Son consisted of Barnett McDougall (1825-1905) and his sons, Charles C. (1857-1930), Benjamin G. (1865-1937), and George B. (1868-1957). After Barnett retired in the mid 1890s, the brothers renamed the firm McDougall Bros. Barnett McDougall was born in New York and came to California in 1856. During the 1860s through the 1880s, he was a pioneer builder/architect with offices in San Diego and San Francisco. Charles, Benjamin, and George, along with their sister Nellie (1863-1898), were born in San Francisco. All three sons trained in their father’s office while Benjamin also studied at the California School of Design (now San Francisco Fine Arts Institute).

In 1890, Benjamin and George, who had just recently joined the firm, represented the firm in Bakersfield while Barnett and Charles managed the main office in San Francisco. In 1891, Benjamin, George, and Nellie boarded at the house newly completed by William Howell. When corresponding with her brother, William Howell’s sister Teresa frequently wrote about the comings and goings of the McDougalls. For example, she wrote that “Geo McDougall is very entertaining; plays well on the piano. Played by the hour for us yesterday. He is about as irrepressible as his brother.” Once located at 1626 17th Street, the Howell House is now at the Kern County Museum, and although the museum asserts that another architect designed the house, there is strong evidence that suggests that the McDougalls designed what The Weekly Californian called the “tastiest ever constructed in Bakersfield.”

In the 1890s, a few of the known buildings the firm designed included the Weill’s Department Store (1889), Galtes Block (1889), Kern River Flour Mill (1891), Bakersfield School (Bryant School) (1891), Dr. Walter Snook residence (1891), Abia T. Lightner residence (1891), First M.E. Church, South (1892), Noriega Building (1893), Rosedale School (1893), Walters Hotel (1893), Luis V. Olcese residence (1893), Kern County Courthouse Renovation and Annex (1894), Hall of Records (1894), Kern County Hospital (1894), Schurra Building (1897), Vineland School (1897), Rockpile School (1897), J. B. Berges Livery Stables (1898), and Ambrose-Curran Building (1899). By 1895, with Barnett in semi-retirement, Charles and George managed the firm in San Francisco while Benjamin continued to represent the firm’s Central Valley interests from its Bakersfield headquarters. In 1895, The Daily Californian noted: “Mr. B. G. McDougall has been so long a resident of Bakersfield and is so thoroughly identified with its building interests that B. McDougall and Son are looked upon quite as a local firm. Mr. McDougall is a skilled and experienced architect, and commands the confidence and esteem of Bakersfield to a marked degree.”

In addition to designing buildings, Benjamin also dabbled in land speculation. In 1892, Benjamin invested with W. E. Houghton and H. A. Blodget in the Union Avenue Colony. They had Union Avenue south of Bakersfield graded and planted 1,000 trees, many of them eucalyptus. The 20-acre parcels were reported to be in great demand, but, unfortunately, the financial panic of 1893 bankrupted the project.

McDougall and Son initially shared office space with Thomas Sweet’s Wells Fargo office in the Kern Valley Bank after it was rebuilt following the fire. In 1893, the firm moved into the Galtes Block, which the firm designed following the fire. Benjamin also oversaw its renovation - including a new facade - in 1897. In October 1897, the firm built its new headquarters at Eye and Wall Streets, and The Daily Californian noted that it was “a queer looking structure. Being an architect, Mr. McDougall did not draw any plans and the reason the building looks that way is because that’s the way it happened to come out.” Unfortunately, a photograph of this “queer looking structure” has not been found.

In May 1896, Benjamin married Frances Hawkins, a stenographer with the Kern County Land Company. Benjamin’s sister Nellie lived with the young couple at their home on 16th Street. Suffering from tuberculosis, Nellie had moved to Bakersfield from San Francisco for the drier air and regularly took trips to San Emidio for the fresh air and cool climate. In 1897, Benjamin and Frannie, as she was called, welcomed the first of their three children while living in Bakersfield.

In October 1898, Nellie McDougall died in Bakersfield from a hemorrhage of the lung. She had spent that summer in San Francisco and had recently returned to Bakersfield at the time of her death. Her death seems to mark a turning point for the firm in Bakersfield, and, the following year, Benjamin moved the firm’s Central Valley headquarters to Fresno while maintaining a satellite office in the Ambrose-Curran building in East Bakersfield. Although continuing to design buildings in Bakersfield, his primary focus turned to building up the northern part of the valley. While in Fresno, he again dabbled in land speculation, albeit this time more successfully. Along with a Fresno developer, he built up the prominent North Park subdivision where he built a substantial home for his growing family.

In 1906, disaster once again benefited the McDougall family. Following the San Francisco earthquake, McDougall Bros. closed its Fresno office, and Benjamin moved to Berkeley and opened his own firm. His most significant Bay Area buildings include the Shattuck Hotel (1909-10), Standard Oil Company Building (1911), and Oakland Federal Building (1913). George and Charles continued as McDougall Bros. until George was appointed State Architect in 1913, a post he held until 1938. Charles maintained a small practice and shared office space with Benjamin..

In 1895, The Daily Californian noted: “To mention all the buildings of Bakersfield designed by this firm would require that we make a list, not only of by far the greater part of the public buildings, churches, school houses and business blocks, but of scores of residences as well.” Although it would have been helpful if the Californian had indeed included a list, I have been able to compile a list of the firm’s Bakersfield projects including: Southern Hotel (1889 and 1890), Kern Valley Bank (1890), Weill Block (1889), Galtes Block (1889), Hirshfeld Block (1889), Kern River Flour Mill (1891), Bakersfield School House (1891), Dr. Walter Snook residence (1891), Abia T. Lightner residence (1891), First M.E. Church, South (1892), Robert Arnold residence (1892), Noriega Building (1893), Rosedale School (1893), Walters Hotel (1893), Luis V. Olcese residence (1893), C. L. Hollis residence (1893), Dr. Herman Lemke residence (1893), Courthouse Annex (1894), Hall of Records (1894), Kern County Hospital (1894), Mrs. William Tyler residence (1894), Courthouse fence (1896), Schurra Building (1897), Vineland School (1897), Rockpile School (1897), Lakeview School (1897), J.

A Tour of Bakersfield's Bungalow Courts

EDITED 9/2/2014 with new information.

Bungalow courts started being built just prior to World War I, and from 1910 to 1930, they were the dominant multi-family dwelling type in Southern California. Pasadena holds the distinction of having the first bungalow court. It was designed in 1909 by Sylvanus Marston who placed eleven full-sized bungalow houses in a courtyard arrangement. The earliest bungalow court that I could find in Bakersfield is the court at 926 Lake Street in East Bakersfield. It was built in 1910 by Contractor Young of Santa Barbara for Mathias Warren (Earl Warren's father) as rental units. As the 1912 Sanborn Fire Insurance Map of Bakersfield shows, the court originally had six units with a walkway leading off of Lake Street. Four units survive.

A typical bungalow court consists of six to ten small, individual houses placed around a communal green space. Each house usually consists of only one bedroom. Most bungalow courts are kept to two standard city lots, and parking is usually limited and is often at the rear of the units, in the alleyway, or on the street.  906 Kentucky Street, with its three bungalows on either side of a central lawn, is an example of a typical bungalow court arrangement. Bungalow courts can also be found in other, less common arrangements. Paynter Court (1717 Palm Street) is an example of a U–shaped court, which is characterized by a duplex or, in this case, a small apartment house at the back. Individual cottages or even a series of duplexes or triplexes arranged around a long, narrow, garden-like walkway can also be considered a bungalow court.  St. Elmo Court is an example of an attached, narrow court in which a common walkway and yard is shared by four, attached, residences.

What separates a bungalow court from other detached multiple housing units that were built later has to do with aesthetic. From distinctive tilework (St. Elmo Court) to Spanish tile roofs (2001 Blanche Street) to bay windows (El Maiz Court, 101 Eye Street) to exposed beams (Ye Olde English Village Court Apartments, 1823 Myrtle Street), bungalow courts have a quaintness and approachability missing from more tenement-like apartment complexes.

Bungalow courts were built throughout Bakersfield. Many are tucked into residential neighborhoods that were being developed on former farmland. For example, the bungalow courts near 23rd and D streets (Finlayson, Spreyer, and Swanson courts) were built on former Kern County Land Company land. When they were built in the late 1930s, the land was at the northern edge of town.  Bungalow courts were also built on land that was being subdivided from larger properties; 1717 Baker was built next to dentist’s G. L. Brown’s house on land that had been part of Dr. Brown’s orchard.

During the bungalow court’s heyday, American society was drastically changing as large numbers of young people sought opportunities away from their families. This included young men returning from the military as well as young women entering the workforce. Traditional housing types - mainly single family homes, boarding houses, and city apartments - did not meet the new demand. Courtyard housing provided a sense of community as well as independence.

Media endorsed bungalow court living for young women. In 1913, an article in Ladies' Home Journal concluded that “very few persons, particularly women, can be happy outside of a pleasant home. An apartment in a great boxlike building is frequently the solution, as a house to one's self is apt to be not only lonely, but expensive as well. In California, the court apartment has solved the problem in a practical and economical way.” Women may have been the primary residents of bungalow courts in Southern California, but this does not seem to have been the case in Bakersfield. Only about 20% of the heads of households living in a bungalow court apartment as listed in the 1930 Bakersfield City Directory were women. Considering that Bakersfield’s main industries were oil and agriculture – both male-dominated fields – it seems reasonable that most of the bungalow court residents were male. Many young couples also lived in the units, but pets and children were not allowed.

After World War II, bungalow courts fell out of favor as emphasis was placed on building single-family homes in newly developing suburbs. The 1960s saw the development of large-scale apartment buildings that allowed for much higher housing density. While groupings of one-story units continued to be built in Bakersfield, these groupings lack the personality, beauty, and approachability that was prevalent in the earlier courts.
