Heyday Partnership's Lincoln Heights house: the cheapest lot in L.A.

Lincoln Heights dates to the 1880s and is one of Los Angeles’ first neighborhoods outside downtown. But here, carved into a bluff, sit twin houses that look like 21st century refugees from a modern architecture magazine. Sleek and boxy, with the top floor sheathed in unpainted cedar siding, the contemporary designs were built by Hardy and Kevin Wronske of the Los Angeles-based Heyday Partnership.
