<br />The Rogers-Morrison House is architecturally significant as an intact example of the English Revival style. According to the original
<br />building permit, dated October 8, 1929, the residence and garage were constructed for Emmet C. Rogers of a cost of $4,500.
<br />Rogers, a building contractor who constructed multiple homes in Floral Park, and his wife Juna lived in the house for a short period
<br />then sold it in 1931 to Ernest L. Morrison, a rancher, and his wife Martha. From 1934 to 1939, the Morrison's rented the house to
<br />Walter Waldron, an employee of National Bank, and his wife Francis. By the early 1940s, after the death of Martha Morrison, the
<br />residence had been sold to Carl and Corrine Ruhlman. The Ruhlmans retained the house until 1946, when Clarence and Pauline
<br />Amling, the owners of Amling Roses, Inc., bought and occupied 2144 N. Greenleaf for just over a decade. In 1957, ownership of the
<br />house shifted twice, when Royce Crooks, an employee of Continental Oil, and his wife Lizzie, purchased the home and sold it a
<br />month later to Francis Hutain, a Santa Ana firefighter, and his wife Phyllis. The Hutains retained the property for Twelve years, until
<br />1969 when then sold it to Franklin Philip Clemmons. Ownership of the residence has since shifted on multiple occasions.
