The Hills Have Eyes (and Wings)!

Two tales frame the San Jacinto Mountain backdrop of Palm Springs - both with origins from the local Cahuilla people.

The “Witch” of Tahquitz Canyon

Tahquitz was the first shaman created by Mukat, the creator of all things. Tahquitz had much power, and in the beginning he used his power for the good of all people. Tahquitz became the guardian spirit of all shamans and he gave them power to do good. But over time, Tahquitz began to use his power for selfish reasons. He began to use his power to harm the Cahuilla People.

The people became angry, and they banished Tahquitz to this canyon that now bears his name. He made his home high in the San Jacinto Mountains in a secret cave below the towering rock known today as Tahquitz Peak. It is said that his spirit still lives in this canyon. He can sometimes be seen as a large green fireball streaking across the night sky. The strange rumblings heard deep within the San Jacinto Mountains, the shaking of the ground, and the crashing of boulders are all attributed to Tahquitz as he stomps about the canyon.

Angel Cove

Angel Cove is named for an angel-shaped rock formation located at the top of the cove’s largest canyon. The formation is best viewed from a distance across the valley. The naming of Angel Cove is also attributed to a settler of the cove who believed an angel had saved her very sick child.

The Cahuilla people, native to this region since time immemorial, referred to this general area as “pe on bel”, which translates to “cool wind blowing”. Along with evidence of early use of the area by the Cahuilla people near the base of the mountain, there are remains of three home sites from the 1920’s and 1930’s.

In 1956, the Alexander Construction Company commissioned architect William Krisel — working with Dan Palmer on the subdivision’s layout — to design what became their very first Coachella Valley subdivision. Originally called Smoke Tree Valley Estates, most of the roughly 90 homes went up across 1957 and 1958, launching what would become the defining Alexander-built look of Palm Springs.

The signature move: soaring “butterfly” rooflines with facades, orientations, and roof angles varied enough that no two houses in a row look quite the same — a tract neighborhood that was engineered to feel custom-built. Desert landscaping was baked into the design from day one, not an afterthought.

The resident list reads like a mid-century who’s-who: author Ray Bradbury owned a home here, along with Eddie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds, Racquet Club co-founder Charlie Farrell, and film producer Irving Allen, who made 45 films across his career.

It’s the neighborhood that started the Alexander dynasty in Palm Springs — the same design language you’ll see echoed across the city’s most sought-after mid-century pockets today.

Architecture

10/13/2026

Modernism Week October kicks off this Thursday and three names explain much about how Palm Springs got its look.

Albert Frey brought the pedigree. Swiss-born and trained as an engineer rather than a traditional architect, Frey joined Le Corbusier’s Paris studio in 1928 — he’s considered the first American architect to work directly under Corbusier, on the Villa Savoye project, no less. He landed in the desert almost by accident, through a client connection, and it became his home for the rest of his career. His style — raw materials, buildings that read the landscape rather than fight it — became known as “desert modernism.” Palm Springs City Hall, the Tramway Gas Station’s famous “flying wedge” canopy, the Aerial Tramway’s Valley Station, and his own Frey House II are all his to name a few.

E. Stewart Williams brought the local roots and the trendsetting commission that started it all. His father, a Dayton architect, came to Palm Springs in 1934 to build La Plaza and stayed. Stewart trained at Cornell and Penn, worked in Raymond Loewy’s New York office, then joined the family firm in 1946. A year later, a young Frank Sinatra walked in asking for a Georgian weekend house — Williams talked him into modern instead, and the Twin Palms house became the firm’s first residential job and an instant trendsetter. Williams went on to design more both commercially and residentially including the Oasis Building, the Edris House, Coachella Valley Savings, and the Palm Springs Desert Museum’s 1976 building — more measured and conservative than Frey or Neutra, but just as foundational.

The Alexander Construction Company is the reason this style wasn’t just for the wealthy few. George Alexander and his son Robert started building in 1955 with 1,200-square-foot starter homes at $19,500 — and by hiring Palmer & Krisel as their go-to architects (with Donald Wexler designing a handful of standout projects), they built over 2,200 homes across the Coachella Valley in just a decade. That’s roughly doubling the size of Palm Springs itself, and doing it in butterfly-roofed, rationally designed modernist homes rather than anything conventional. Dinah Shore, Dean Martin, and Marilyn Monroe all owned “Alexanders.” The company’s run ended abruptly in 1965, when George, Robert, and their wives were killed in a plane crash near Indio — but the homes, and the neighborhoods they built, are still some of the most sought-after addresses in the desert today.

One engineer-architect from Zürich, one home-grown firm, and one father-son development company — between them, they’re why “Palm Springs” and “mid-century modern” are basically synonymous.
