Coast Guard cutter, but smoke continued to pour out all sides of the two-story building as well as beneath the pier, with only a few flames actually visible. Over at the coast, people had started to congregate to watch the conflagration, with some posing for selfies with the historic structure aflame behind them. Although smoke obscured the scene, the building at the end of the pier was burning furiously. The structure was once the site of the Ruby's Diner, which has stood empty since the business closed three years ago. As SkyRanger 7 arrived overhead, smoke was blowing onshore the entire length of the structure.

The design exemplifies Brunn’s signature minimalist aesthetic evident in dynamic spatial choreography of light and volume. A pivotal element of conception and construction of this home is its length, which allows for more Northern exposure, and since the space is only 20 feet wide, there is more natural light and less electric energy consumed. This Northern exposure aids in keeping the ecological footprint down, as there is no direct heat gain, and less need for artificial cooling, contributing to the net-zero goal. Furthermore, Bridge House has natural ventilation, including a series of skylights to ventilate corridors. All window applications are outfitted with custom shades, to block out even more sun exposure and keep the interior cool. On the exterior of the home, a series of photovoltaic cells on the roof allow for efficient and low impact energy sourcing.

Today, it is a tourist destination renowned for its beautiful architecture and spooky ghost stories… and, of course, it also features an on-site (on deck?) restaurant. Along the project journey Brunn revisited a familiar partner by teaming up with BOSCH, this time not only for home appliances but their full line of residential systems. Bridge House is set to include an EV car charging station, HVAC, home security and a full range of kitchen appliances. The inclusion of such total systems represents the long lasting partnership Brunn and BOSCH have grown. When you're standing on the road, all you can see are the railings on the roof of the apartment — making it seem like the house is underneath the bridge.

Moments later, Rocco jumped from his third-floor apartment armed with an assault rifle. He momentarily dropped the gun while trying to get away and went to reach for it, according to surveillance footage. Investigators found further evidence which linked him to the heists and on March 21 this year, a SWAT team gathered at a Reseda Boulevard apartment building to serve a search and arrest warrant on the suspect.

The private sector features a Master Suite with a walk in closet, attached bathroom, and private sanctuary garden. The suite is uniquely characterized by a warm wood wrapping all walls, in addition to the hallmark large windows that open out to reveal an abundant landscape of greenery. The sanctuary garden, just off the master bedroom, was designed to replace the typical indoor sitting area, in order to maintain the homes relationship with nature.

It took years longer than expected and the final cost is well above original estimates, but the 6th Street Viaduct is finally opening. According to the LAPD, the rifle Rocco carried was a semiautomatic Ghost Gun, the department said in a statement. In her affidavit, Delph said she discovered Young had been communicating with another person during the robberies on a number registered to Zeff Rocco, an East Coast Crip who’d done prison time for carjacking. However, the group’s signature crime sprees continued while those suspected ringleaders were jailed.
The seeds of Bridge House were sown, however, when he visited the Breakers in Newport, Rhode Island. Though the Italian Renaissance-style mansion that was the Vanderbilt family’s summer retreat is a far cry from the modern profile of Bridge House, it sparked an idea for Brunn. The project uses unprecedented designs and systems, with an emphasis on economy and efficiency of design, accordingly the firm was eager to incorporate BONE Structure’s steel-construction modular system in Bridge House. Combining a classic post-and-beam structure with energy-efficient solutions, BONE Structure delivers a flexible, durable, and sustainable product, that affords expedited on-sight assembly. While not all of the proposed homes were built, many serve as a representation of the simplistic aesthetic elements of mid-century modern architecture, highlighted by clean lines and delineated spaces.

The 450-square-foot apartment built in 1949 has a terrace that looks over a stream and a rooftop patio that sits next to a road bridge, separated only by a fence. It is priced at $250,000 — a steal considering the median sale price for an existing single-family house in Southern California is about $785,000. Dan Brunn, FAIA, Principal of Dan Brunn Architecture is designing a one-of-a kind “bridge house,” that will, literally, bridge over a stream. The 4,500-square-foot home will serve as a demonstration of innovative systems and forward-thinking processes.

As the Bridge House continues construction, DBA hopes to create a lasting legacy with a home that effortlessly showcases the selection of innovative products and systems of the Bridge House sponsors.
The landscape of the home is deeply intertwined with the surrounding natural environment. Lush and wild, this landscape preserves the existing trees and serves to retain as much of an organic feel as possible, incorporating a flourishing arrangement of grass and foliage. The stream may be crossed by entering the home, or via small wooden bridge, which was created from a repurposed tree. "So if you're on the street, on the sidewalk on the bridge, you'll see the rooftop terrace on your left. You take the stairs down on the right and then you'll access the unit," Lee said.
The unusual location of the house and its comparatively modest $250,000 asking price drew national attention and hundreds of visitors when it hit the market a few weeks ago. Most of the visitors were looky-loos who wanted to get a peek at the small home someone built in 1949 into the side of a bridge owned by the city overlooking the Alhambra Wash. While most homeowners own the land under their house, the bridge is presumably public land, Lee said. The real estate agents are working to clear up such property issues with the U.S. Finally, evolving to Bridge House’s windows, a punctuating transition that delineates public space from private space.
Smoke still blew at the scene, but was no longer billowing, with the plume was vastly diminished. Small flames could be scene burning here and there, but the fire, in the structure at least, seemed to be largely knocked down. The firefighting boats and Coast Guard cutter remained on station, water cannons still blasting.
Houses in the Alhambra, California, area have a median listing home price of $862,500, per data from real estate platform Realtor.com. The bridge house is the second-cheapest property to have transacted in the area so far this year. As of 10 p.m., crews were still battling active fire on the restaurant building and the pier and boats were still in the water, according to Blake Dorse, a division chief with the Oceanside Fire Department. However, officials believe the blaze will stay contained to the pier's end, in part because crews removed several planks of the pier and created a 5-foot trench going across the width of the pier to help stop the fire from spreading east. The result of Dan’s inspiration, paired with his unique background and signature style, is a pointed approach to development and a brilliant use of space.
“Chef Rachel saw smoke coming up from underneath the pier, behind the old Ruby’s building," Waite said. "Thankfully, everyone was evacuated safely. "This is really, really good news," Parsons said, "and like I said, we think we have forward progress stopped there. What that means is that the vast majority of the pier itself is in good, undamaged condition." Speaking at a news conference at around 5 p.m., Oceanside fire chief David Parsons said lifeguards were the first to report the fire and firefighters arrived five minutes later. He also stated that the main body of the fire had essentially been knocked down and that they were now focusing on keeping it under control, though the deck was still burning, which is where firefighters were concentrating their efforts. Luckily for the crews working on the boats, the surf was only 2-3 feet, easing their efforts.
