PAUL REVERE WILLIAMS FAIA (1894-1980) Carver Manor was developed by real estate agent Velma Grant. The subdivision of 250 affordable single-family homes was intended for Black homeowners in the Willowbrook area just south of Watts. Grant envisioned clients to be middle class Black professionals who would pay a premium for modest, well-designed homes. Williams designed the homes with unique architectural features including hardwood floors, bay windows and off-set and broken roof lines. 1947 - 12814 McKinley Avenue, Los Angeles CA.
