The pre-fab Aluminaire House was moved to downtown Palm Springs in 2024. "Designed by then-budding architects Albert Frey and Lawrence Kocher (eventual pioneers of desert modernism) — made its debut at the 1931 Allied Arts and Building Products Exhibition at Grand Central Palace in New York City and, ironically, embodies eternally utopian principles for living."

Because it does not meet US codes for disability access, the interior is off limits to the public.

A three-story, aluminum-clad, boxy building stands against a background of the brown, rocky San Jacinto mountains and palm trees. In the foreground is a metal fence with a bright yellow sign attached that says "Aluminaire House." The sun is setting behind the mountains at dusk.

When I stepped off the bus this afternoon, I was unexpectedly greeted by this typical example of Midcentury Modern architecture. It is bravely trying to age gracefully into this century. Stand strong, gray lady. Your finest days are behind you, but you are not yet due for the wrecking ball.

(NE Glisan St., Portland. Built in 1961.)

An apartment complex built in one of the several styles that we lump under the Midcentury Modern umbrella. It has three stories of apartments built over parking stalls at ground level. All of the apartments have balconies facing the street. The stairwells are covered by ornamental bricks that are painted either blue, yellow, or orange.
