Also address integrity) <br />The Grover Collins House is architecturally significant as a highly intact example of a Ranch style tract house in Santa Ana, <br />owned and constructed by prolific Santa Ana developer Roy Russell. According to City building records, it was built in 1957 for <br />approximately $17,000. According to City directories, by 1960, the house was sold to Grover G Collins, who lived on the <br />property until circa 1975 (when records discontinued listing the homeowner). City directory records indicate that Donald <br />McNealy owned the home in 2000, and in 2008 it was owned by Dexter Whitfield. <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 4.) <br />B11.
