Thompson purchased this property on the northwest corner of Orange Grove Boulevard and Ellis Street for $35,000 in 07/1904. The 18-room house was located on a 150 x 114 foot lot, and had been owned by Dr. Adalbert Fenyes and his wife, Eva Scott Fenyes. Fenyes was an avid entomologist. A Los Angeles Times story on 02/12/1905 indicated that Thompson got "a bargain at the price quoted." (See "By Builders and Architects A Pasadena Residence," Los Angeles Times, 02/12/1905, V16.)
