Designed by architect Peter J. Weber in the 1930s as a family residence and conceptual showcase of his work, The Peter J. Weber House (also known simply as "The Weber House") is City of Riverside Landmark #52[1] located at 1510 University Avenue, Riverside CA 92507. Built between 1932 and 1938, the house features an abundance of recycled and reclaimed materials and finishes, hand-carved details, and some ahead-of-their-time systems including a roof-mounted solar water heater[2] and seismic fittings to protect against earthquake damage. Many of the design details were inspired by Weber's travels in Europe and North Africa, in particular Moorish architecture. The house was designed to be expanded into a multi-bedroom private getaway for guests, but Weber never finished the intended expansion. The Weber House served as a family home for Peter, his wife Clara, their son Peter N. Weber, and mother-in-law Amelia Hartnett from 1932 through 1971, until the Webers relocated to Encinitas. It was owned by the Webers for the next thirteen years, and maintained for a time by Bob Kneisel[3], a tenant who became a founder of Pasadena's Bungalow Heaven Landmark District. The house later fell into disuse and eventually the property was listed for redevelopment. The Days Inn purchased the Weber House and its surrounding property, intending to demolish the house, but local preservation-minded groups and individuals got the house protected as a City Landmark.
