C. Waldo Powers (April 12, 1900 – June, 27, 1932) was an American architect who designed a large number of apartment buildings in the 1920s.
Born in San Pedro, California, Waldo was the son of Charles Powers — a Swedish immigrant — and Mercy Crocker.[1] He grew up in San Pedro, California, where he attended San Pedro High School. He then went to the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, where he played football and graduated with a degree in engineering in 1922.[2]
