At the time John and Mary Fritz built their home at 11122 Kling St. in 1923, the area was surrounded by Walnut Groves, and nearby Lankershim Village was already the major business hub of the San Fernando Valley.  John Fritz was a storied character.  He was one of the early pioneers in the east Valley, founding North Hollywood Federal Savings and Loan, which was the first savings and loan in the Valley, helping many families buy homes in the area.  Their main office was located at the corner of Lankershim and Riverside Dr.  He was also a charter member and first President of the Masonic Lodge of Lankershim, and ran for City Council.
