Places, Earth Heritage House

State Parks, Historic Sites, and Museums need your help. Throughout the country, state parks, historic sites, homes, buildings, museums, and similar institutions are struggling to continue operating. Because of general financial problems, many of these institutions are operating on a reduced schedule or in danger of closing. Some are being forced to sell off artifacts and property. Many will not weather these hard times without your help. Places Earth urges everyone to support these vital and important public resources any way you can. Please donate your treasure, time, and talent. Write to your governor and other elected officials telling them to find a way to keep state parks open. It will be your loss.

Heritage House is a beautiful Victorian house in the south side of the City of Riverside. It was built for Catharine Bettner, a 45-year old widow of a local citrus rancher, James Better. Architect John Wall designed the house in the Queen Anne Victorian style. The house was completed in January 1892 for a cost of $10,755.00. Mrs. Bettner lived in the carriage house while the house was being completed.
Heritage House is operated by Riverside Municipal Museum. The Riverside Museum Associates donated the property to the City of Riverside in 1974.
