Street and Washington Street. Seventeenth Street terminated <br />from the east at Bristol Street. one structure was located just <br />north of Seventeenth on the east side of Bristol. The two <br />remaining structures were located east of Bristol and just south <br />of Santiago Creek. None of these structures have survived to <br />the present day. <br />The 1442 maps of the project area indicates that the area <br />along Bristol between First and Seventeenth was entirely <br />built -up by that date, excepting only a small parcel immediately <br />southwest of the Bristol Street /Seventeenth Street <br />intersection. This is the parcel which eventually became Santa <br />Ana Community College. Six buildings are located along Bristol <br />north of Seventeenth Street. None of the buildings north of- <br />Seventeenth Street depicted on the 1942 maps have survived to <br />the present day, but many from this era exist in the southerly <br />portion of the APEI. <br />During the first post war decade, 1946 to 1956, the APEI <br />underwent major development. Santa Ana Community College became <br />operational during the early part of this decade to meet the <br />educational needs of the returning servicemen. Originally. <br />Santa Ana Community College utilized buildings which had been <br />purchased from the Santa Ana army Ric Base and moved the college <br />site. None of these buildings survive to the present day. <br />South of Seventeenth Street many small commercial establishments <br />such as gasaiine stations, restaurants and general Offices were <br />erected. In addition, many of the existing residential <br />structures were converted to commercial office use. <br />The development north of Seventeenth Street was somewhat <br />different. This area had been largely devoted to citrus groves <br />with only a few scattered structures. All of these structures <br />were removed and the bulk of the area was devoted to tract <br />duplex housing. Horner Snapping Plana to the northwest of the <br />intersection of Bristol and Seventeenth was built, as was <br />Santiago Elementary School east of Bristol. The bridge spanning <br />Santiago Creek was installed in 1947. <br />15 <br />75C -763 <br />
