Construction History: (Construction date, alterations, and date of alterations) No original building permits were found, but according to the Los Angeles County Assessor online property information, the house was built in 1923 (Los Angeles County Office of the Assessor n.d.). It appears to have originally been under the jurisdiction of Temple City. Historic aerial photographs show that there were two small buildings at this location as early as 1948 and that by 1972 the configuration was very similar to what it is today (Histodcaedals.com var.). 1961 - Site plan indicates the original house was roughly the northeastern part of the existing house (approximately 750 square -feet) with a small, partial -width porch on the western elevation about where the entrance is now and a detached garage to the south. 1962 – Permits issued to owner P. L. McNutt for sewer and to alter the residence and add a garage.

Significance: Theme: Early Subdivision and Growth 1910-1935 Area: City of Arcadia Period of Significance: 1923 Property Type:. Single-family residence Applicable Criteria: NA (Discuss importance in terms of historical or architectural context as defined by theme, period, and geographic scope. Also address integrity.) This extensively altered 1923 residence does not meet the criteria for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) or for designation under the local ordinance. It is not a historical resource for the purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Historic Context: Originally owned by the San Gabriel Mission and then a part of Rancho Santa Anita, the land that includes present-day Arcadia was deeded to Scottish immigrant Hugo Reid in 1839 (City of Arcadia 2012). Reid was the first to make a modem impact on the land, raising cattle and building the first structure (City of Arcadia 2012). After a succession of owners, in 1875 Elias J. "Lucky" Baldwin purchased the land, along with much of the surrounding area and named it Arcadia (ibid.). Residential development from 1875 to 1909 is one of the first important themes in the City's history (Architectural Resources Group 2016). See Continuation Sheet B11.

Significance: (continued from page 2) In 1885, the main line of the Santa Fe Railroad, in which Baldwin was a stockholder, was opened through Baldwin's property, making it practical to subdivide part of the land into a town site. By 1887, Baldwin was actively attempting to draw residents to the area, but sales were slow and the densest development occurred in the core of the town near the intersection of the railroads (Architectural Resources Group 2016:33). Residential development in this part of town was on small lots, while development further south was on multi -acre parcels (Ibid.). As late as 1903, when a census was taken to ascertain the population of the proposed City of Arcadia, the area only had 642 residents and many lived and worked on the Baldwin Ranch or were temporary residents working for the railroads (Ibid.). Regardless, with a booming economy increasingly based on entertainment, sporting, hospitality, and gambling, Arcadia was incorporated in 1903, with Baldwin as its first mayor (City of Arcadia 2012). Moving into the 1910s, Arcadia's growth remained slow and steady (Architectural Resources Group 2016). However, the city began shifting away from "its sporting days to more respectable pursuits, as it outlawed liquor licensing in 1912 and embarked on a series of civic improvements" (Architectural Resources Group 2016:44). By 1915, electric streetlights had been installed in some areas and streets were graded and oiled (Ibid.). Residential development in the 1910s saw the subdivision of larger parcels into smaller ones (2.5 to 5 acres) that attracted a wider variety of buyers who were interested in a more suburban lifestyle with room for some agricultural pursuits (Architectural Resources Group 2016:49). Most of the 1910s subdivisions followed a grid pattern with graded and sometimes paved roads without curbs or sidewalks (Architectural Resources Group 2016). After World War I, the region thrived and the 1920s were a transformative period in Arcadia's development (Ibid.). Residential subdivision accelerated with tracts designed in grid patterns like those of the 1910s, but with smaller lots (Architectural Resources Group 2016:36). Single-family residential construction dominated the period (Ibid.). Most of these were modest in size and the earliest were constructed in the Craftsman style, with Period Revival styles becoming dominant in the mid -1920s and into the 1930s (Ibid.). The smaller lot subdivisions were located closer to the original town center, Pacific Electric lines, and the commercial district at Huntington and First, while the larger multi -acre lots were in what was then the southern part of town (Ibid.). The 1936 to 1945 period was characterized nationally by massive unemployment and economic uncertainty, but Arcadia was one of the few places that did not experience a near cessation of construction (Architectural Resources Group 2016:65). The major factors for this were Anita Baldwin selling off the remaining approximately 1,300 acres of the Baldwin Ranch; establishment of military facilities and the related increase in demand for commercial businesses; and construction of a County park, which was a large Works Progress Administration (WPA) project (Ibid.). The Baldwin acreage was parceled out into a number of residential subdivisions that jumpstarted construction between 1936 and 1941 (Ibid.). With the end of World War II (WWII) and the return of thousands of veterans, Arcadia and the greater Los Angeles area saw an enormous explosion in the development of affordable housing. Much of this development took the architectural vocabulary of the pre- war years and combined it into simplified styles suitable for mass developments and small-scale apartments (City of Los Angeles 2011). Development during the 1945-1970 period transformed the city from semi -rural to suburban earning it the nickname a "Community of Homes" (Architectural Resources Group 2016). Citywide Historic Resources Survey. In 2016, a citywide historic resources survey was completed for the City. This survey has not been formally adopted by the City Council. The subject residence, 9828 East Naomi Avenue, was not included in the survey. People Associated with this Residence. Research revealed that as early as 1925 the residence was occupied by Bertrand E. and Nell H. Baker, as well as Nell's father Carl W. Dammast (Los Angeles Times 1941). Carl was born on February 14, 1851, in Germany and moved to the United States in 1868 (Ibid; Ancestry.com var.). He was a lumber merchant in Kansas before coming to California in 1922 (Los Angeles Times 1941). He moved in with his daughter and son-in-law in 1925 (Ibid.). In later years, another daughter, Jeanne Dammast, also lived in the house (Ancestry.com var.). Nell and Jeanne were born in Kansas in 1880 and 1898, respectively, while Bertrand Baker was born in Iowa in about 1874 (Ibid.). In 1930, Bertrand was working as a rabbit fanner, Carl was unemployed, Nell was employed as a secretary for an investment banker, and Jeanne was a public school teacher (Ibid.). All four people appear to have lived at this address unfit at least 1954 (Ibid.). From 1948 to 1955, directories also list Florence Dammast, Nell and Jeanne's sister, at this address (Ibid.). However, in 1959, only Jeanne is listed (Ibid.). In 1958, Jeanne retired from teaching after 40 years (Los Angeles Times 1958). She started her teaching career in Kansas before moving to California and teaching in Ventura and Los Angeles counties (Ibid.). She was teaching at Eliot Junior High School in Altadena when she retired (Ibid.). Jeanne died in 1963, while living on Sunset Boulevard in Arcadia (Los Angeles Times 1963). No additional relevant information was found for any of the other family members who lived at the subject address. According to building permits, in 1961 and 1962, P. L. McNutt owned the property, but did not live at this address (City of Arcadia var.). The property was advertised for sale in June and July 1962 as "completely remodeled & modernized" with a "strictly modem front elevation" and Arcadia glass sliding doors (Los Angeles Times 1962a and1962b).

In compliance with CEQA, this property is being evaluated under the California Register criteria and the City of Arcadia criteria for Landmarks (Chapter 1, Section 9103.17.060 of the City's Municipal Code), The State and local criteria are identical, therefore, they have been grouped together to avoid redundancy. California Register Criterion 1 and City of Arcadia Criterion 1 — It is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of local or regional history or the cultural heritage of California or the United States. This residence is associated with the early subdivision and growth of the area, but it has sustained alterations that have severely compromised its ability to convey any association with that period. California Register Criterion 2 and City of Arcadia Criterion 2- It is associated with the lives of persons important to local, California or national history. Based on the research discussed above, the residence does not appear to be associated with persons important in history. California Register Criterion 3 and City of Arcadia Criterion 3 — It embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region or method of construction or represents the work of a master or possesses high artistic values. This residence has been extensively altered (additions and modern windows, doors, and siding) which have severely compromised its integrity and its ability to convey an association with its period of significance (1923). California Register Criterion 4 and City of Arcadia Criterion 4 — It has yielded, or has the potential to yield, information important to the prehistory or history of the local area, California or the nation. This residence was built in 1923 using common materials and construction practices and remodeled and enlarged in the early 1960s. It does not have the potential to yield information important to the history or prehistory of the local area, California, or the nation. 'B12. References: (continued from page 2) City of Arcadia Var.
