Description

Photograph showing the courtyard and exterior of the La Valencia Apartments at the corner of Paseo Delicias and La Granada in Rancho Santa Fe. The two-story Monterey-style building was designed by Lilian Rice and completed in 1928. Supplied historical documentation identifies the building as originally mixed-use, with three offices on the first floor and three rental apartments on the second floor, and states that Rice maintained an office in the building. The view shows arched openings, an upper-level balcony, stucco walls, clay tile roofs, landscaped courtyard areas, and signage reading “Valenciana Apartments.”
