Haley (b. 1865), who was a prominent builder of both residences and commercial buildings in the Los Angeles area.Lanterman, who had treated victims of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and fire, insisted that the foundation, floors and walls of his house be built from reinforced concrete, and Haley interpreted the aesthetics of Craftsman-style wood-built bungalows in the new material.
