    David Woods has three brick houses built at 224 to 228 Sullivan Street, and they are tenements by 1870

    Tax records show 224, 226 and 228 Sullivan Street were built in 1852 for David Woods, and the 1852 Perris atlas already shows the rear buildings behind them. By the 1870 census the houses were occupied as tenements. By the twentieth century each lot held as many as 30 families, 20 in the front building and 10 in the rear.
