The Skinny House, located at 708 Gladys Avenue in Long Beach, is said to be the nation's narrowest home. It was built in 1932 by Nelson Rummond on a bet that he could not build a habitable residence on a lot that measured 10 x 50 feet. The Skinny House is three stories high and covers 860 square feet. It is built in the Old English Tudor Style.
