Professional Archaeologist Owner and Principal Investigator June 22, 2019 City of Arcadia Attn: Lisa Flores/Luis Torrico 240 W. Huntington Drive Arcadia, California 91066 RE: 314 California Street, Arcadia, CA. Ms. Flores/Mr. Torrico: McKenna et al. recently completed an architectural assessment of the property at 314 California Street, a SFR property with an eclectic California Bungalow with California Ranch influences (ca. 1951-55, with alterations and additions). This property is not listed in the City’s listing of historically sensitive properties. This property was evaluated against National Register of Historic Places (National Register) and California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) eligibility criteria, as well as the recently adopted local guidelines and policies (Ordinance 2359 and Arcadia Municipal Code, Ar- ticle IX, Chapter 1). My evaluation resulted in a determination that this property is not eligible for listing as an “individually eligible resource” or City “Landmark.” McKenna et al. has assigned a code of 6Z (see attached forms), pending City concurrence. I am recommending the City consider this property ineligible for recognition as a historical resource. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact my office in Whittier, CA.

Area Arcadia, L.A. Co., California Period of Significance: 1950 + Property Type: Residential Applicable Criteria: NONE (Discuss importance in terms of historical or architectural context as defined by theme, period, and geographic scope. Also address integrity.) This area was originally developed late, post-1932, as it is not covered by the historic Sanborn Maps. This particular property was not improved until 1950, following the subdivision of Block 51 of the Santa Anita Tract (mapped as early as 1887). This particular area was considered “rural” to the core area of the City. No official subdivision map has been filed for this area, suggesting the owner of Block 51 sold portions throughout the ownership. The development periods are representative of the population growth and need for affordable housing in the LA suburbs, especially areas in the San Gabriel Valley, follow- ing WWII. Arcadia was developed primarily as a middle class community for working class families both before and after World War II. Many local residents were initially employed by the Santa Anita Racetrack, but occupations varied considerably following WWII. B11.

McKenna *Date: June 22, 2019 X Continuation  Update The current project area is identified as being within the historic Rancho Santa Anita and a “…part of Arcadia Santa Anita Tract, Block 51 …” (ca. 1887). Block 51 measured 950 feet (east/west) and 400 feet (north/south). When mapped, both California Street and 3 rd Avenue were illustrated, while neither was actually established until much later. In 1932, the Sanborn Fire Insurance maps iden- tified Block 51 as City Block 206, reflecting the same measurements, but outside the core area of the City and not yet considered urban. The earliest available aer ial photograph (ca. 1948) illus- trates activities in the area, but no well-defined property boundaries. A review of directories identified only two improvements on the 300 block of California Street (south side) in 1937: Mrs. Martha M. White (widow) at 306 California Street (corner lot) and Paul Wor- tendyke at 330 California Street. This suggest Block 51 was halved by 1937. Additional research identied the occupants of 306 California Street in 1928 as Simon E.R. White (Martha), and engineer who was also a rancher. Born in 1865-66, White was already in his 60s when he purchased the property, suggesting it was a retirement location (he was living and working in San Fernando in 1923). The improvements at 306 California were originally identified as 304 California Street, but no permits were found. It is possible, given the original construction date of 1920 for this property, that the owners prior to the Whites owned all of Block 51. This owner has yet to be identified. The first evidence of subdivision within Block 51 dates to 1932 (possibly earlier), when the owners were identified as S.E.R. and Martha M. White (306 California Street) and A.E. Woodmansee (330 California Street). It was not until ca. 1944, when three owners were listed: A.J. Lux (306); G.M. Lane (330), and Rev. O.D. Lee (334 California Street). It was Rev. Otto D. Lee who initiated addi- tional building on the block – indicating he purchased a portion of Lane’s property (after 1948). With respect to the White property, Simon E.R. White died before 1937, as Martha is identified as a widow. She was still on the property in 1939, but not in 1944, having sold to A.J. Lux. By 1950, Lux had sold to C.R. Jasinsky and a second occupant was identified as Mrs. Lea Kay (relationship unknown). E.M. Lewis had established a residence at 320 California Street, but 314 California Street was not yet listed. City permits confirmed the 1951 construction of a dwelling and garage at 314 California Street by C.C. and Paul H. Long (father and son). Paul H. Long is credited with the actual construction. When originally built, this was a two bedroom, one bath residence with a detached garage. In 1957-58, the Longs added a third bedroom and second bath (completed in 1960. This additional room appears to have been constructed on the western side of the building. The Longs were still living on the property in 2007, having re-roofed the residence and garage at least twice (per per- mits). The County Assessor identifies the improvements as consisting of three bedrooms, two baths, and 1,316 square feet of living space. Other alterations to the improvements appear to have been completed without permits.

McKenna *Date: June 22, 2019 X Continuation  Update A review of aerial photographs show the improvements at 314 California Street in 1952 as consist- ing of a residence and detached garage. The garage was located near the southwest corner of the lot and accessed via a long driveway running along the western side of the property. The residence was roughly “U” shaped with a flat north elevation and two wings on the south elevation, extending to the south from the east and west sides of the structure. Between the wings as a covered patio with a roof line that extended slightly south of the wings. Within the added bed and bath, the residence was closed to 1,100 square feet. At some point, and without permits, a two car garage was added to the west side of the residence and another room was constructed to the south, connecting with the original garage. This resulted in an “L” shaped structure with the new garage exhibiting a two-car bay door on the north elevation. The re-roofing of these improvements have negated much of the evidence of the additions, but they are evident from the south side of the structure. At the time of the recent investigations, McKenna et al. concluded the architectural design of this residence (and garage) are an eclectic and altered bungalow with California Ranch influences (per the additions). It is possible these additions all date to the 1950s, while only a portion was actually done with permits. As illustrated in the attached photographs, the residence is set back in the property, resulting in a large front yard and a relatively small rear yard. The structure is wood framed and a raised foun- dation and exhibits wood and brick siding on the original structure and textured stucco on the ad- ditions. It is a one story structure with no evidence of a basement. The north elevation of the residence exhibits the original structure in the center of the building, with the addition to the east and the garage to the west. This portion of the residence consists of a high pitched roof with the cross-gable roof on the east side. This area exhibits wood siding beneath the peak and a wall of red brick on the living floor. .A tri-part window is centered within the brick wall, consisting of steel framed casement and fixed windows (4:1). Exposed support beams are resent above the window. The brick appears to be original to the residence. To the west of the brick wall, the residential wall is recessed and consists of horizontal wood siding below, capped with a board and batten upper wall. There are two entrances – the main entry facing west and the secondary entrance facing north. The main entry leads to the living room, while the secondary entrance appears to be associated with access to the dining and kitchen areas. The roof above this small, concrete porch is solid and exhibits exposed beams and a wide fascia board. The room added to the east side of this residence is stucco sided (rough texture) and also exhibits steel framed fixed and casement windows and a high pitched roof (oriented east/west). The east DPR 523L (6/19) *Required information State of California  The Resources Agency DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION CONTINUATION SHEET Primary # HRI# Trinomial Page 13 of 59 *Resource Name or # (Assigned by recorder) 314 California St., Arcadia, LA Co., CA 91006 *Recorded by: Jeanette A. McKenna *Date: June 22, 2019 X Continuation  Update elevation exhibits similar stucco siding, with the depth of the stucco obliterating the relief of the steel framed casement and fixed windows (two sets). A small attic vent is located under the peak of the roof and there are no eaves. The siding meets the roof wi th only a trim board. Floor vents are also evident, attesting to the raised foundation. To the west of the original residence is the newer garage – attached to the west wall of the resi- dence and consisting of a two car garage with a north-facing wooden bay door that appears to be spring-actioned. The small, covered porch was designed to continue across the front of the garage (with the same roof overhang), but this expanse has been interrupted by the construction of a temporary shed (small tool room) that has negated the ability to open the garage door. Wrapping around to the west side of the garage, there is a steel framed fixed and casement window panel almost centered below the roof eave. This window was likely moved from the original west elevation and incorporated into the new construction. The southern extent of the garage is marked by a presence of a large settlement crack along the point where the rear addition begins. Here, the roof line is also altered – extending to the south at a slope less than the original residence and continuing to the point where it incorporates the original garage. The original garage exhibits fixed and casement windows on the west and south elevations - and also exhibits the same rough stucco added to the other portion of the residence. The south elevation is the busiest, exhibiting a flat expanse on the eastern side of the structure (and adjacent to the addition to the east side of the residence. This elevation exhibits a large casement window (two panels) and a single, smaller casement window (at the added bathroom). A closet for the water heater is also present. To the west of this wing is the enclosed porch/patio, consisting of a raised floor and the contiguous roof line. The roof is supported by a large, load-bearing beam and simple 1 x 2 posts with screening to enclose the porch. An access door is located on the east elevation of the porch and a secondary door is located on the south elevation. The residence within the porch exhibits wood siding (board and batten design). The door on the south elevation appears to have been relocated to this area, as the solid wall also looks out-of-place. The east elevation of the original garage meets near this door and exhibits a steel framed fixed window flanked by casement windows. Its location on the wall also suggest relocation. The original garage has been converted to living space. The occupants of this property are obviously into gardening, as there is a soil shed added to the rear of the original garage, there is a small hot house/greenhouse in the yard, a temporary shed in the southeastern corner of the rear yard, and numerous potted plants around the property, including the front yard. The property, as a whole is landscaped, but also somewhat unkempt, with debris around the garage and in the front yard.

McKenna *Date: June 22, 2019 X Continuation  Update In general, this residence is in fair to good condition, although in need of some maintenance. It has been owned by the same family since the original construction in 1951 until at least 2007. Joyce Long died in 2012, suggesting they may have been on the property later than 2007. No date of death was found for Paul H. Long. The property improvements have been altered significantly, through additions, resurfacing, moving windows, and re -roofing. The core area of the residence, representing the original structure, appears intact, but also exhibits the re-roofing, extension of the porch, and attachment of the second garage. A review of the properties surrounding the property at 314 California Street confirmed the improve- ments at 306 and 314 California Street are the only remaining pre-1985 improvements. The block is now dominated by modern multi-family properties (condominiums and apartments). Most of these improvements date between 1985 and 2000. Properties to the east and west, as well as south (fronting Diamond Street) are all modern redevelopments. There is no district to identify and the majority of improvements at 314 California Street post-date 1951-1955. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * In April, 2019, the City of Arcadia adopted Ordinance No. 2359: An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Arcadia, California, Amending Various Sections of Article IX, Chapter 1 of the Arcadia Municipal Code (“The Development Code”), with an Exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), to Implement a Historic Preservation Ordinance.” This Ordinance was the result of numerous meetings, studies, and public comment. The City of Arcadia Zoning Code, Section 9103.17 addresses Historic Preservation. Summarizing the document, for consideration as a Historic Landmark (resource) in the City of Arcadia, property improvements must be 45 years of age or older. In addition, the improvements must maintain their integrity, as defined by the seven criteria listed in the State and Federal guidelines (Location, De- sign, Setting, Materials, Workmanship, Feeling, and Association). A resources (building, structure, object, or site) will be eligible for recognition if it meets one or more of the fol lowing Criteria: 1. It is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of Arcadia’s or California’s history; 2. It is associated with the lives of persons important to local or California history; 3. It embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of con- struction, or represents the work of a master, or possesses high artistic values; DPR 523L (6/19) *Required information State of California  The Resources Agency DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION CONTINUATION SHEET Primary # HRI# Trinomial Page 15 of 59 *Resource Name or # (Assigned by recorder) 314 California St., Arcadia, LA Co., CA 91006 *Recorded by: Jeanette A. McKenna *Date: June 22, 2019 X Continuation  Update 4. It has yielded, or has the potential to yield, information important to the prehistory or history of the city or state. With respect to the integrity of the improvements at 314 California Street, McKenna et al. has con- cluded the following: Location: This residence is in its original location (1951-55), although there have been additions and alterations; Design: This residence and garage were originally designed as stand-alone structures, but with the additions and alterations, are now one large expanse exhibiting variations in design and original materials. As such, McKenna et al. has concluded the original design is no longer intact. The intent of this element has NOT been met; Setting: The setting of California Street, between 3rd. Avenue and 4th Avenue, has been significantly altered through modern redevelopments. Only the properties at 306 and 314 California Avenue reflect the earlier im- provements and both have been impacted by additions, alterations, and replacement of materials. The original rural setting has been lost, as has the historic residential developments. The intent of this element has NOT been meant. Materials: The residence and garage at 314 California Street have been altered through additions and the replacement so the original materials. The original residence has been incorporated into a larger structure and the additions show evidence of stucco resurfacing. Windows have been moved and the roof has been replaced at least twice. The original gar- age has been converted to living space and the second garage has been impacted to the point the bay door is not operational. While the core area of the residence appears relatively intact, the extent of alter- ations, additions, and material replacements have adversely impacted the building, McKenna et al. has concluded the intent of this element has NOT been met. Workmanship: Permits note the original construction was completed by Paul H., Long, owner of the property. It is highly likely Long is also responsible for the other improvements and alterations. No data was found to suggest DPR 523L (6/19) *Required information State of California  The Resources Agency DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION CONTINUATION SHEET Primary # HRI# Trinomial Page 16 of 59 *Resource Name or # (Assigned by recorder) 314 California St., Arcadia, LA Co., CA 91006 *Recorded by: Jeanette A. McKenna *Date: June 22, 2019 X Continuation  Update there was an architect involved in the planning of the residential design and there is no data to identify Long as a contractor, craftsman, or ar- tisan. The design is simple and there is no use of exotic or unique materials. As such, McKenna et al. has conclud ed the intent of this element has NOT been met. Feeling: In general, “feeling” is subjective. In this case, the alignment of Cali- fornia Street between 3rd Avenue and 4th Avenue is indicative of a new (modern) multi-family residential neighborhood. The “feeling” of the pre-1950 and post-1050 (to ca. 1985) no longer applied. The area is dominated by modern construction. McKenna et al. has concluded the intent of this element has NOT been met. Association: This property is not associated with any identified Tract or Subdivision. Portions of Block 51 were sold for development, but this began slow and did not really impact the area until after 1950. None of the property owners were persons of note and no significant events have been as- sociated with Block 51. McKenna et al. has concluded the intent of “association” has NOT been met. With respect to the “integrity” of 314 California Street, McKenna et al. has concluded that only one of the seven elements has been met (Location). Lacking the majority of the elements, McKenna et al. has concluded the property lacks integrity, as defined by the guidelines. Having failed to meet the “Integrity” requirement, it would be difficult for the property to be considered a local Landmark (or historical resource). Nonetheless, McKenna et al. addressed the four main criteria for consideration: 1. It is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of Arcadia’s or California’s history? McKenna et al. found no data to indicate this property is associated with any events that meet the intent of this criterion. The only association that could be documented was that of Block 51 of the Santa Anita Tract and the area had been “ru ral” well into the 1940s. Such an association is not in keeping with the intent of the local, state, or federal intent of this criterion. Therefore, Criterion 1 does not apply to this property. 2. It is associated with the lives of persons important to local or California history?

McKenna *Date: June 22, 2019 X Continuation  Update McKenna et al. found no evidence to suggest this property is associated with any person important to local or California history. The developer, Paul H. Long – also the long-term owner/occupant – fails to meet the intent of this criterion and, therefore, Criterion 2 does not apply to this property. 3. It embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of con- struction, or represents the work of a master, or possesses high artistic values. As noted above, the residence and garage at 314 California Street are representative of an eclectic bungalow with Ranch Style design elements incorporated into the sig- nificantly altered residence. It fails to meet the criteria of any one design and appears to reflect the personal preferences of the owner/builder. The residence was enlarged to accommodate the extended family and, more recently, additional alterations have shifted the use of space within the residence/garage. The materials are simple and the construction exhibits no outstanding workmanship, unique or exotic materials, or outstanding design elements. There is no known architect identified. There are no high artistic values and, overall, the modest improvements fail to meet the minimum intent of Criterion 3 and, therefore, Criterion 3 does not apply. 4. It has yielded, or has the potential to yield, information important to the prehistory or history of the city or state. No evidence was found to suggest the property has a potential to yield any information important in history or prehistoric (e.g. archaeology or paleontology). No artifacts or fossils were identified during the property inspection. This does not preclude the presence of buried resources, but at this time, McKenna et al. has concluded Crite- rion 4 does not apply to this property. This property is not listed on the City list of individual historical properties. Overall, the property has failed to meet any of the required criteria and, therefore, McKenna et al. has determined the property is not significant and ineligible for recognition as a historically important cultural resource. McKenna et al. is recommending the City consider the property at 314 Calif ornia Street be ineligible for recognition as a City Landmark. It also fails to been the state and federal criteria for recognition and McKenna et al. has assigned the property a status code of 6Z. Any additional alterations or redevelopment of this property will not constitute an adverse environmental impact.
