The Cockins House was designed and constructed in 1894 by James H. Bradbeer and Walter Ferris. It is 5,570 sq. ft. and built in the
Queen Anne style. It was created for William and Sarah Cockins who occupied the home until 1903. Next, Thomas P. Newton resided at the house, staying until 1908. The house was converted to a duplex in 1911, alongside
USC students. Over time, the structure fell into disrepair. Concerned neighbors nominated it for historic status; it became Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument No. 519 on Feb. 1, 1991. The University of Southern California acquired the property and refurbished it, opening the Center for Occupation and Lifestyle Redesign in it in 1999. ==References==
