Harada House

The Harada House, built in 1884, and located at 3356 Lemon Street in Riverside, California, became the focus of an important court case testing exclusionary legislation. The 1916-1918 case of California v. Harada was an early constitutional test of an alien land law in the United States. At issue was the right of the American-born children of Japanese immigrant Jukichi Harada to own the house. That right was upheld, setting precedent for related challenges to such laws.
