Regarding Arens House. Part of a model cooperative community originally known as Mutual Housing Association, now called Crestwood Hills. It began as a utopian experiment in the late 1940s by a few musicians, and eventually turned into a cooperative association that included 400 members. It is best known for mid-century modern architecture, and contains several homes designated as architectural landmarks by the State of California.
