Professional Archaeologist February 3, 2020 Owner and Principal Investigator City of Arcadia Attn: Lisa Flores/Luis Torrico 240 W. Huntington Drive Arcadia, California 91066 RE: 509 Coyle Avenue, Arcadia. Ms. Flores/Mr. Torrico: McKenna et al. recently completed an architectural assessment of the property at 509 Coyle Avenue. The potential historic resource is NOT listed on the City’s “Individually Eligible Resources.” McKenna et al. evaluated the improvements against the National Register of Historic Places (National Register), California Register of Historical Re- sources (California Register) eligibility criteria, and recently enacted City of Arcadia poli- cies and guidelines. My evaluation resulted in a determination that this property does not maintain its archi- tectural integrity (only 2 of 7 elements) and has failed to meet any of the four main crite- ria for recognition as a Historic Landmark in the City of Arcadia. It is not eligible for list- ing as an “individually eligible resource” and, therefore, assigned the designated code of 6Z (see attached forms). The property is not significant and not eligible for listing on any listing of historically significant resources – federal, state, or local. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact my office in Whittier, CA. Sincerely, Jeanette A. McKenna Jeanette A.

Significance: Theme: Residential Development Area City of Arcadia Period of Significance: Property Type: SFR Applicable Criteria: NONE (Discuss importance in terms of historical or architectural context as defined by theme, period, and geographic scope. Also address integrity.) Property was part of various historic locales, including the Rancho Santa Anita, Santa Anita Tract (1883), the Arcadia Acreage Tract (1906), and Tract No. 15703 (1950). When subdivided in 1950, Tract No. 15703 was owned by Carl R. Turner. His subdivision involved the north side of Longden Avenue and both sides of Coyle Avenue; between 5th and 6th Avenues. Twenty- two parcels were identified – an average of seven lots per frontage. This development was consistent with the many subdivisions initiated after WWII to meet the growing demands for first-time home buyers requiring reasonably prices residential properties. In this case, C.R. Turner, in association with D.E. Turner, built the residences within the tract and sold the prop- erties are “ready-to-occupy.” These types of developments were representative of the early tract home developments throughout Southern California and exhibiting relatively small im- provements designed for later additions, if applicable.

McKenna *Date February 3, 2020 X Continuation Update The property at 509 Coyle Avenue is cross-referenced by the County Assessor as APN 57 90- 020-006. This property was originally defined in 1950 as Lot 6 of Tract No. 15703. Prior to 1950, this property was within the historic Rancho Santa Anita, a 13,319 acres rancho originally granted to Hugo Reid (ca. 1839) and confirmed by Mexican Governor Pio Pico in 1845. The rancho was eventually acquired by Henry Dalton in 1858 and, following a series of owners, was acquired by Elias J. Baldwin. Being within Township 1 South, Range 11 West, and the northeastern quarter of Section 3, this property was just west of the historic Rancho Azusa (Duarte) and just north of the historic Rancho San Francisquito. In 1883, the Baldwin property was, in part, subdivided into the Santa Anita Tract, which extended from Santa Anita Avenue (west) to the boundary with the Rancho Azusa Duarte and Rancho San Francisquito (east); by County Road/now Live Oak Avenue; south), and White Oak Avenue (now Foothill Blvd; north). Falling Leaf Avenue (now Longden Avenue) bounds the southern extent of the later Tract No. 15703. The 1906 Arcadia Acreage Tract was mapped, redefining property boundaries. In this case, the project area (509 Coyle Avenue) was within Block 111 of the Arcadia Acreage Tract – measuring approximately 911 feet by 895 feet, or 18.7 acres (20 acres less road easements). This same block was numbered as Block 270 in 1932, when the Sanborn Fire Insurance Company mapped Arcadia. However, because this area was considered rural and mainly unimproved, no more detailed mapping was completed by the Sanborn Fire Insurance Company. When defined in 1948, the project area was referenced as parcel 32, a property measuring fifty feet wide (N/S) by 130 feet deep (E/W). he property, covering 6,500 square feet, is relatively small and actually smaller than the average, modern single family residential property of 7,000 square feet. The dimensions of the property have not changed between 1948 ad today. T here is still an SCE easement running along the western side of the property. The County Assessor currently identifies the improvements on this property as consisting of a three bedroom, two bath residence with 1,251 square feet of living space. Based on City permits, the owners of the property(ies) with Tract No. 15703 were owned collec- tively by Carl R. Truner. Carl R. Turner, in association with D.E. Turner, mapped and developed the properties with “Behruth” as the general contractor. Upon completion of the construction, parcels were sold and, in the case of 509 Coyle Avenue, the first identified owner was Joseph H. and June Goss. Goss (1916-1967), a native of Pennsylvania, remained on the property until ca. 1956.

McKenna *Date February 3, 2020 X Continuation Update By 1958-1959, the property was owned/occupied by Joseph and Vernie Tortoris. Joseph Sam Totortis (1921-1965) was a native of Texas married to Vernie Granger (1919-2019). The Tortoris’ daughter, Carolyn, died in Texas in 1942 (at one month old). She was premature and did not survive. By the time they moved to California, their son (Thomas, b. 1948) and daughter (JoAnn, later JoAnn Nasca, b. 1943) were with them and attending local Arcadia schools. Although Joseph S. Tortoris died relatively young, his widow (Vernie) lived to 99, passing in 2019. Records show she remained in the Coyle Avenue residence until at least 2002, per directories, and possibly longer, dying in Arcadia. The ramp on the north elevation of the residence (see later discussion) may be indicative of Vernie Tortoris’ presence on the property well into the 2000s. Vernie and Joseph Tortoris are buried at Pomona Resurrection Cemetery. A review of the properties located in the immediate vicinity of 509 Coyle Avenue confirmed the 1950 dates of construction for the majority of residences built on Coyle Avenue (between Fifth and Sixth Avenues). As listed below, seven properties line the north and south sides of Coyle Avenue. One other property is facing Sixth Avenue. Of these fifteen properties, four have been redeveloped (1990-2017), representing over 25% (+) of the properties. Five properties (33%+) yielded the single date of 1950. The remaining six properties (40%) yielded multiple dates ranging from 1952 to 1962. While the 1950s era dates appear to dominate the area, the modern improve- ments in the immediate vicinity of the subject property have impacted to potential for the area to be considered a district.

The ownership/occupancy was dominated by the Tortoris family, having moved onto the property in ca. 1958.

McKenna *Date February 3, 2020 X Continuation Update Following the original construction, and based solely on the permit files, the following activity can be associated with this property: • 1950 Initial Construction C.R. and D.E. Turner (Buhruth) • 1952 D.E. Turner Sewer Connection • 1952 Joseph H. Goss Range installation • 1954 Joseph H. Goss Residential Remodel (addition of chimney) McKenna et al. checks adjacent permit files to ensure permits associated with 509 Coyle Avenue were not misfiled. No other permits were found. As listed, it appears Goss filed for permits and can be credited with the adding the red brick chimney evident on the roof of the structure. This was an interior addition and consistent with the permit referencing an “remodeling” of the resi- dence. As an addition completed shortly after the original construction, the chimney addition is still consistent with the historic, early 1950s construction, despite not really being original to the construction in 1950. No permits were issued to either Joseph nor Vernie Tortoris. CURRENT CONDITIONS The improvements at 509 Coyle Avenue, Arcadia, consist of a single family residence with an attached garage, a small play house in the northwestern corner of the property. The play house is a small, rectangular structure (approximately 10 feet by 12 feet) with a south facing door and a louver window. The structure is highly overgrown and in a state of disrepair. It is not a permitted structure and, technically, not considered living space or part of the original residence. It is not considered a significant element of the property and likely dates to the 1970s. The 1972 aerial does not appear to show the presence of this structure, while the 1977 aerial clearly shows the structure. The 1948 aerial photograph of the area shows the area now associated with the Coyle Avenue alignment was a disked field with a residential co mplex on the corner of Sixth Avenue and Longden Avenue. The 1952 aerial illustrates the developed Tract No. 15703. The residential structure with the attached garage have not changed in the original configuration since the original construction, with the minor exception of the red brick chimn ey on the south elevation. The structure is oriented on an east/west axis with an east/west trending gable roof line. The entire structure is wood framed with stucco cladding and roof covered in modern com- position shingles (no permit for any re-roofing).

McKenna *Date February 3, 2020 X Continuation Update The garage is located on the west side of the residence and the south elevation of the garage is continuous with the south elevation of the residence. The garage exhibits a bay door, also facing south, accessed via a concrete driveway. The bay door is a modern replacement (aluminum) – roll-up as opposed to the original, which was likely spring action. The garage measures approxi- mately 20 feet by 20 feet and the residence continues to the north of the garage, resulting in the rectangular plan for the overall building. The west elevation of the garage exhibits the peak of the roof and a recently cut vent on the wall near the southern extent of the elevation. Another floor vent is near the base of the wall. Towards the rear portion of the garage, the west elevation ex- hibits a utility door (with pipe), suggesting the presence of a water heater. Further north on the west elevation, the roofline shifts slightly towards a shed roof design and here, near the northern extent of the elevation, is a modern, vertical, vinyl slider window (a pre- placement) associated with the residence living space. Wrapping to the north elevation, th is side of the residence exhibits an elongated and flat expanse of stucco-clad wall with both windows and doors. The western extent of the north elevation ex- hibits a modern slider window similar to that noted on the west elevation. To the east of this window is a secondary residence entry consisting of a standard door atop as small concrete stoop (two-step). The door, itself, exhibits a solid base and a double hung sash window a bove. This door appears original to the residence and is cap ped by a small extension of the roof line. The stoop is currently covered by a ramp that permits wheeled access into the residence. To the east of the secondary entry is a small, vertical, modern (vinyl) window that may be associ- ated with the kitchen area of the residence. Further east is a large, set of sliding glass doors and a corresponding concrete stoop extending the width of the doors. This door is aluminum framed and probably original to the residence. The eastern extent of the north elevation exhibits two more windows – one small and horizontal slider indicative of a bathroom window (vinyl replacement) and a small, modern double hung sash window – probably associated with a bedroom. The entire north elevat ion has a shallow eave (less than one foot) with exposed rafters and a simple fascia board. The east elevation of the residence is a flat exp anse with the roof line peak and attic vent. There two windows, both vinyl replacements (vertical slider). An A/C unit is located on the northeastern corner of the residence.

McKenna *Date February 3, 2020 X Continuation Update The south elevation is the main elevation, facing Coyle Avenue. The residential portion of the elevation consists of an expanse of horizontal tongue-in-groove atop a concrete porch covered by an extension of the roof line and supports by decorative iron lattice posts. This siding is original to the residence and exhibits the weathering consistent with exposure – specifically where the roof line does not protect the lower two (+) feet of the wall. The main entrance is a simple doorway nearer the garage and accessed via the two-step stoop. The door is currently covered by a se- curity screen, but examination showed the door to be a solid wooden door with no windows or decorative elements. The handle, lock, and peep hole are original. The door is severely weather beaten and exhibits considerable water damage. To the east of the main entry is a large, fixed window flanked by slider windows. These windows are vinyl and indicative of the replacements identified on the other elevations. This large window system is framed by wide, flat boards (6”), overlapping the wood siding. A large slider window is present on the east side of the south e levation, similar to the first, but without the central fixed pane. This window is similarly framed. The roof overhanging the front porch consists of wood planks and exposed rafters. There is a load bearing beam above the support posts and a fascia board runnin g the length of the roof. There are no outstanding design elements to this elevation, not unique fixtures, and not apparent additions. The front porch is framed by a red brick planter with roses. The rest of the front yard is modestly landscaped with grass, bushes, and mature trees on the property boundaries. The rear yard is overgrown, fenced with chain link fencing and block walls. There are some mature and young trees, grass, and some roses, ivy, and misc. vegetation. Overall, the residence exhibits its original footprint and massing. Although there are no permits to correlate dates of activity, it is apparent the residence and garage have been re-roofed, the stucco has been resurfaced, all windows have been replaced with modern vinyl styles, but the original doors are present. A security door has been added to the main entrance and a ramp has been added to the secondary entrance. The garage door has been replaced. The extent of alterations to the property have impacted to integrity of the property (discussed below). It is possible these major changes posted ca. 2002 and cannot be definitively attributed to Vernie Tortoris or the Tortoris family.

McKenna *Date February 3, 2020 X Continuation Update ASSESSMENT/EVALUATION 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 Arca- dia Municipal Code (“The Development Code”), with an Exemption under the California Environ- mental 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. Summariz- ing 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 to the Code, an evaluation or assessment of a property includes addressing the “integrity” of the resource, as defined by the seven criteria listed in the State and Federal guidelines (Location, Design, Setting, Materials, Workmanship, Feeling, and Association). Subsequent to the “integrity” evaluation, a resource (building, structure, object, or site) is determined to be eligible for recognition if it meets one or more of the following 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 construction, or represents the work of a master, or possesses high artistic values; 4. It has yielded, or has the potential to yield, information important to the pre- history or history of the city or state. In addition to the basic Ordinance, the improvements must also maintain their integrity, as defined by the seven criteria listed in the State and Federal guidelines (Location, Design, Setting, Mate- rials, Workmanship, Feeling, and Association). Once “Integrity” is addressed, a resource (build- ing, structure, object, or site) can be considered for eligible for recognition if it meets one or more of the following Criteria: DPR 523L (1/20) * Required Information State of California DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION CONTINUATION SHEET Primary # HRI # Trinomial Page 21 of 67 *Resource Name or # (assigned by recorder) 509 Coyle Avenue, Arcadia, LA Co., CA 91007 Recorded by: Jeanette A. McKenna *Date February 3, 2020 X Continuation Update Integrity Location: The improvements at 509 Coyle Avenue are in their original locations and re- flect the original footprint and massing. The resid ence and garage date to 1950. No additions were noted for the exterior of the structure and, overall, McKenna et al. has concluded the minimal intent of the “Location” element HAS BEEN MET, despite the additions. Design: The residence has not been significantly altered in its design and there is no evidence of any additions. However, alteration in the form of resurfacing the stucco, replacing all windows, re-roofing, adding A/C, interior alterations, and general maintenance, have resulted in moderate impacts. The extent of the material replacement has not necessarily impacted the street view of the im- provements and, therefore, McKenna et al. has concluded the minimal intent of the “Design” element has HAS BEEN MET. Setting: The “neighborhood” surrounding this property was designed in 1950 and the improvements can all be traced to a single contractor (Carl R. Turner) – with the exception of the modern redevelopments. In general, the area along Coyle Avenue, between Fifth and Sixth Avenues, is considered a 1950s era or im- provements. However, it is also noted that at least 25% of the residences have been replaced by modern redevelopment and another 40% have been subjected to post-1950 construction (additions or alterations). Only 33% of the structures reflect single dates of construction (ca. 1950). As noted above, these single dates are not necessarily indicative of int act structures, as alter- ations can be completed without permits or records on the County level. McKenna et al. has concluded the “Setting” has been adversely impacted by redevelopments and alterations/additions, negating the potential for the area to reflect a district. Further, the presence of the redeveloped properties in the immediate area of the subject project has compromised the “setting” and, therefore, McKenna et al. has concluded the intent of the “Setting” element HAS NOT BEEN MET. Materials: The property at 509 Coyle Avenue exhibits some of the original construction materials, primarily in the form of the wood siding and doors. The rest of the structure exhibits significant impacts, including but not necessarily limited to: DPR 523L (1/20) * Required Information State of California DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION CONTINUATION SHEET Primary # HRI # Trinomial Page 22 of 67 *Resource Name or # (assigned by recorder) 509 Coyle Avenue, Arcadia, LA Co., CA 91007 Recorded by: Jeanette A.

Permits are limited to pre-1956 and there are no permits readily available to show the dates of the alterations or replacement of materials. The replacement of the original materials has adversely impacted the integrity of the property with respect to “Materials” and McKenna et al. has concluded the minimal intent of this element HAS NOT BEEN MET. Workmanship: No evidence was found to indicate the workmanship associated with the im- provements at 509 Coyle Avenue are anything but standard for their period and not the work of a master craftsman, known architect, or artisan. There are no outstanding or unique design elements. As such, the minimal intent of the “Workmanship” element HAS NOT BEEN MET. Feeling: “Feeling” is subjective. Nonetheless, when entering a neighborhood, the feel- ing that you are in an area representative of the period of significance (e.g. the 1950s population growth) should stand out. In this case, that “feeling” has been adversely impacted by the redevelopment of over 25% of the properties along Coyle Avenue. McKenna et al. has concluded the “feeling” specifically associ- ated with the residence at 509 Coyle Avenue HAS NOT BEEN MET. Association: Research failed to associate this property with any historical event or person(s) in local, regional, state, or national history. There is no associated with any recognized architect of note and no association with a significant craftsman or artisan can be documented. The property has not been associated with any scientific find or exhibited any potential for the presence of scientifically signifi- cant resources (archaeological or paleontological). Therefore, the minimal in- tent of this element HAS NOT BEEN MET. Overall, in reviewing the “Integrity” of this property, McKenna et al. determined only two of the seven elements of integrity have been met, resulting in a determination the property has failed to maintain architectural integrity and, therefore, would not be qualified for recognition as a historical resource or landmark. Nonetheless, McKenna et al. evaluated the property for significance in accordance with federal, state, and local guidelines and policies.

The final assessment also involved an assessment in compliance with the standard federal and CEQA criteria, as well as the criteria of the City of Arcadia, as noted above. The follow conclusions are presented: 1. It is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of Arcadia’s or California’s history; No evidence was found that associated this property with any significant events in the City of Arcadia or California history. Therefore, the property is not eli- gible for recognition under this criterion. 2. It is associated with the lives of persons important to local or California history; No evidence was found to suggest an association between this property to any significant persons in the City of Arcadia or California history. Therefore, the property is not eligible for recognition under this 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 val- ues; The improvements (residence and garage) are described as examples of the minimal traditional architectural style with some minor elements of California Ranch architecture. It is not the first, last, or sole remaining example of this style of architecture and the changes have resulted in a more eclectic form of this simple architecture. Taking all alterations, additions, general changes and cur- rent conditions into consideration, McKenna et al. has concluded the property is not eligible for recognition under this criterion. 4. It has yielded, or has the potential to yield, information important to th e prehis- tory or history of the city or state.
