HomeMy WebLinkAbout11/20/2001, PH 2 - NOMINATION OF PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2030 JOHNSON AVENUE TO THE CONTRIBUTING PROPERTIES LIST OF HISTO council M °W 11-20-01 ac Enda uEpoizt C I T Y OF SAN LUIS OBISPO FROM: John Mandeville, Community lopment Director Prepared By: Jeff Hook, Associate Plann SUBJECT: NOMINATION OF PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2030 JOHNSON AVENUE TO THE CONTRIBUTING PROPERTIES LIST OF HISTORIC RESOURCES CAO RECOMMENDATION: As recommended by the Cultural Heritage Committee, adopt a resolution adding the property to the Contributing Properties List of Historic Resources. DISCUSSION Advisory Body Recommendation The Cultural Heritage Committee (CHC) recommends the City Council add a property to the Contributing Properties List due to its probable historic association with the original San Luis Obispo High School. The building located at 2030 Johnson Avenue has been moved twice: first in 1941 when it was moved from the San Luis Obispo High School property to Palm Street and converted to house, and again in 1985 when it was moved from 1625 Palm Street to its current location. The property owner submitted documentation to show the building was a separate building on the campus of the original High School built in 1907 and demolished in 1954 with the property's sale for a new Safeway Store (Dart, 1978). (CHC minutes attached) On a motion by Committee member McMasters, seconded by Committee member Carr, the Committee voted 5-1 to determine that the property meets the Historic Preservation Program Guidelines for listing as a Contributing Property under Criteria II (2) and VIII (3) and to recommend the Council add the property to the Contributing Property List, citing the following circumstances in support of the nomination: • There is physical evidence indicating the building's former use as a one-room structure; • The house's four-foot wide door and amount of window area suggesting the building's use as a classroom; • The house has continuous wood flooring throughout the house, even under partitions; and • The existence of oral history describing a house on the old San Luis Obispo High School site used for Home Economics Commr. Whittlesey did not support the motion because he felt that due to the house's relocation and architectural changes, the property did not meet criteria for historic listing. ,2- / Council Agenda Report — Historic nomination of 2030 Johnson Avenue Page 2 Situation The City has received a request to add a house to the Contributing Properties List. The applicant, Dan Carpenter, lives in the home and provides historic background on the request in the attached letters (Attachment 3). The house has been rehabilitated, while important architectural features of the original one-room school building have been preserved, including building form and scale, roof and window treatment, exterior siding, and interior materials and details. The owner believes it is the last remaining building of the original high school and desires that the property be added to the Contributing Properties List to recognize its former academic importance. Historic Listing Process The process for historic listing involves several steps. Any person may request that a property be added to the Master List of Historical Resources or the Contributing Properties List. The CHC, Architectural Review Commission, Planning Commission or City Council may also initiate listing. The CHC then reviews the request to determine whether it merits formal consideration. If the CHC finds a property merits consideration, a public hearing is scheduled and the applicant and property owner are notified. In evaluating a property's eligibility for the Master or Contributing Properties List, the CHC uses city-adopted criteria. If the CHC finds the property meets one or more of the eligibility criteria it forwards a recommendation to the City Council, who makes the final decision on historic designation. In making these decisions, the City Council considers the CHC's recommendations, public testimony and supporting documentation. The Council's action is then final and if the property is designated historic, its historic status and legal description is recorded with the County recorder. Site Data Property Owners: Daniel L. and Sandra K. Carpenter Zoning: R-2 General Plan Designation: Medium-Density Residential Site Area: 7,020 square feet Site Description: The gently sloping site has one house, and a garage/hobby room addition at the rear that was built in 1992. The site is bordered by residential uses on three sides and fronts on Johnson Avenue Architectural/Historical Background The house is estimated to have been built around 1915 and has been moved twice within the City. According to the owner, the house was originally built on Marsh Street at Johnson Avenue, on the site of the first San Luis Obispo High School. It was later moved to 1625 Palm Street, where it remained until 1985 when it was moved to its current location. An undated CHC historic inventory includes a photo of the house at 1625 Palm Street now located at 2030 Johnson 2-4� Council Agenda Report — Historic nomination of 2030 Johnson Avenue Page 3 Avenue (Attachment 4). A comparison of photos taken in the early 1980s and from the mid- 1990s shows that the building was placed on a raised foundation and front entry stairs were added as part of the 1985 move to accommodate the sloping Johnson Avenue site. Otherwise, the building's overall form, massing, architectural details and materials have been retained from its 1980s appearance when it was located at 1625 Palm Street. No photos of the house before 1983 are available, so it is difficult to determine whether the property has retained its "original architectural style." While there is no documentation available which conclusively proves the house was once located on the original San Luis Obispo High School property, the Committee found that based mainly on the building's original, surviving interior features and interviews with former San Luis Obispo High School students, it was likely the house was associated with the former High School and that the property met minimum eligibility criteria as a Contributing historic property. Eligibility for historic nomination There are two types of historic resources in San Luis Obispo. Individual buildings that have significant historic or architectural value are called "Master List Properties." These are the most unique and or important historic resources and merit special recognition and protection. A property may be listed as a Master List property if it meets any of the criteria in Historic Preservation Program Guidelines (Attachment 5). Criteria for listing include: architectural significance (style, design, age, architect); association with important person or event; or environmental context or role as a community landmark. Consideration shall include the architectural integrity, context and condition of the structure. The second type of historic resource is the "Contributing Property." The Contributing Properties List consists of about 500 properties that contribute to the architectural and historical character of the neighborhoods in which they are located. A Contributing Property is defined as a structure "built before 1941 that has retained its original architectural style and when viewed in the context of its surroundings, contributes to the historic character of the area." (City Council Resolution No. 6424 (1988 Series). While most contributing properties are located within historic districts, the CHC and the City Council have determined they may be located anywhere in the City if they meet the above criteria. An example is the Van Gordon Residence at 1408 Johnson Avenue — just outside of the Old Town Historic District — that was added to the Contributing Properties List in August 1997. Effects of Historic Listing Once properties are added to the Contributing Properties List, physical changes to the property are possible, provided that such changes promote the structure's original architectural style and character. Significant exterior architectural changes are referred to the Cultural Heritage Committee to determine whether the changes are consistent with City standards and to meet CEQA requirements. Demolition is also possible, subject to the requirements in the Demolition and a -3 Council Agenda Report—Historic nomination of 2030 Johnson Avenue Page 4 Building Relocation Code. Contributing properties are not eligible for the Mills Act Program but as designated historic resources, are eligible for preservation benefits that may include flexible zoning and building standards, tax credits,and historic rehabilitation loan programs. Being listed on the City's Inventory of Historic Properties will classify the property as historically significant pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act. Demolition,reconstruction, or relocation of historically significant structures may be considered a significant adverse environmental impact. Significant adverse impacts can be avoided if the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Preserving,Rehabilitating, Restoring, and Reconstructing Historic Buildings or the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation and Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings (1995, Weeks and Grimmer) are followed ALTERNATIVES 1.

I had the opportunity to visit with three residents who were students of San Luis High School when it was located at Marsh & Johnson Streets. Vareene Langenbeck (Graduated 1928), Al Polson (Graduated 1924) and Cecelia Serpa (Attended 1923). All three were very informative and remember a couple of addition buildings used by the High School for additional classroom space. More specifically, with their input and my findings, we believe it was used to teach Home Economics to students from about 1915 until about 1940. This building was moved off the property in 1941 and converted to a house. The High School was then relocated to San Luis Drive and the old High School was used as the Junior High School. I also believe there are characteristics of the structure that are consistent with one room schoolhouses from that era. I have included pictures of the front door (48" Glass), large front and rear windows, large original light fixtures, hardwood flooring throughout the house. When the building was moved in 1941 , the interior was converted into a home. The walls are built on top of the hardwood flooring that covered the entire floor of the one room school. I believe these things are significant enough to set the building aside as a historical piece to the original San Luis High School. Any questions, please feel free to call me. 543-2511 Dan Carpenter a�� ATTACHMENT 3 SR ar - 1 anti _ �4�• 1 4 ATTACHMENT � I i , , � + I F' r 1 i f r � „ r y, ATTACHMENT 3 n qur , ; lk 9. A i I ATTACHMENT 3 June 16,2001 To: Cultural Heritage Committee City of San Luis Obispo Re: 2030 Johnson Ave. I am sending this letter and photos of the residence 1 live in on Johnson Avenue because 1 feel it has considerable significance in the history of San Luis Obispo. The house is currently ly located at 2030 Johnson Avenue (pictures enclosed). I have spent the last six months researching the history of the home. In 198S, this house was moved from 1625 Palm Street to its current location. The county records (assessors office) indicate the house was moved to the Palm Street address in the early 19401s. The assessors records indicate the construction, circa 191S. Having researched further, I believe the house was constructed on the property of the old San Luis High School in the 1200 block of Marsh Street (corner of Marsh and Johnson - currency Scolaris shopping center). It was constructed as as school room (used for Home Economics) and used on the property'until it was moved to Paha street and then converted into a home. 1 have contacted numerous residents who attended San Luis High School ,, then later San Luis Junior High, who remember two dwellings on the property next to the school. They remember the structures as part of the-H%ft School. 1 believe this structure plays a significant part in the history of San Luis Obispo and would take to see it included as a cordn"buting tome to the historical houses in San Lids Obispo. 1 would appreciate any further findings on your part as far as the bestory of-ds residence. t am a Wh generathm=ctive of Safi Luis Obispo and am very interested in protecting and passing on the history of this-wonderful city.

SLY Is Describes form of building such as size, structural shape and details within that form (i.e., arrangement of windows and doors, ornamentation, etc.) Building style will be evaluated as a measure of: 1. The relative purity of a traditional style (as compared to building styles in San Luis Obispo); 2. Rarity of existence at any time in the locale; and/or current rarity although the structure reflects a once popular style; 3. Traditional, vernacular and/or eclectic influences that represent a particular social milieu and period of the community; and/or the uniqueness of hybrid styles and how these styles are put together. 4. The degree to which the structure has maintained its integrity (i.e., assessment of alterations and structural condition, if known). II Dcsipn Describes the architectural concept of a structure and the quality of artistic merit and craftmanship of the individual parts. Reflects how well a particular style or combination of styles are expressed through compatibility and detailing of elements. Also, suggests degree to which the architect (i.e., carpenter-builder) accurately interpreted and conveyed the style(s). Building design will be evaluated as a measure of: 1. Notable attractiveness with aesthetic appeal because of its uniqueness, artistic merit, details and craftsmanship; 2. Overall attractiveness because of craftsmanship and aesthetic value, though not necessarily unique; 3. An expression of interesting details and eclecticism among carpenter-builders, although the craftsmanship and artistic quality may not be superior. a a� ATTACHMENT III. Age Age is a measure of how relatively old a structure is in the context of the history of San Luis Obispo, primarily Anglo-American history (circa 1850). (See Scale of Building Age). CRITERIA FOR BUILDING EVALUATIONS IV. Architect Describes the professional (an individual or firm) directly responsible for the building design and plans of the structure. The architect will be evaluated as a reference to: 1. A master architect (e.g., Wright). 2. A known architect who made significant contributions to the state or region (e.g., Julia Morgan). 3. An architect who, in terms of craftsmanship, made significant contributions to San Luis Obispo (e.g., Abrahams who, according to local sources, designed the house at 810 Osos - Frank Avila's father's home - built between 1927 - 30). 4. An early architect who is otherwise of no special significance but can be identified as a professional (e.g., pioneer architects of the region as confirmed by AIA archival membership records of California and the Central Coast). V. Environmental Design Continuity Describes the inter-relationship of structures and their relationship to a common environment. Refers to the continuity, spatial relationship, and visual character of a street, neighborhood, or area. Environmental design continuity will be evaluated as a measure of the: 1. Symbolic importance of a structure to the community and the degree to which it serves as a conspicuous and pivotal landmark (i.e., easily accessible to the public, helps to establish a sense of time and place). 2. Compatibility of a structure with neighboring structures in its setting on the basis of period, style (form, height, roof lines), design elements, landscapes, and natural features; and how these combine together to create an integral cultural, historic, or stylistic setting. 3. Similarity to and/or compatibility of a structure with its neighboring structures which, collectively, although of no particular aesthetic value, combine to form a geographically definable area with its own distinctive character. C - I ATTACHMENT -5 HISTORICAL CRITERIA VI. History - Person Describes a person, group, organization, or institution that has been connected with the structure, either intimately or secondarily, for at least two generations (i.e., 40 years). Historical person will be evaluated as a measure of the degree to which a person or group was: 1. Significant to the community as a public leader (i.e., mayor, congressman, etc.) or for his or her fame and outstanding recognition - locally, regionally, or nationally. 2. Significant to the community as a public servant who has made early, unique, or outstanding contributions to important local affairs or institutions (i.e., councilmen, educators, medical professionals, clergymen, railroad officials). 3. Contributions which, though minor, directly or indirectly, had a beneficial effect on the community (i.e., firemen, law enforcement officers, postal workers, businessmen/shopkeepers, city employees, etc.). VII. History - Event Associated with a social, political, economic, governmental, educational or other institutional event that has been important to the community. Historical event will be evaluated as a measure of: 1. A landmark, famous, or first-of-its-kind event for the city regardless of whether the impact of the event spread beyond the city. 2. A relatively unique or interesting contribution to the city (i.e., the Ah Louis Store as the center for Chinese-American cultural activities in early San Luis Obispo history). 3. A contribution which, though minor, nonetheless was important to the community (i.e., local interest groups); or, alternatively, a unique or interesting contribution only loosely connected with the structure, object, site, or district. VIII. History-Context Associated with and also a prime illustration of predominant patterns of political, social, economic, cultural, medical, educational, governmental, military, industrial, or religious history. Historical context will be evaluated as a measure of the degree to which it reflects: a as ATTACHMENTS 1. Early, first, or major patterns of local history, regardless of whether the historical effects go beyond the city level, that are intimately connected with the building (i.e., County Museum). 2. Secondary patterns of local history but closely associated with the building (i.e., Park Hotel). 3. Secondary patterns of local history but loosely associated with the building. Historical context will also be evaluated on the basis of: 4. Whether or not a structure occupies its original site and/or whether or not the original foundation has been changed, if known.
