Beginning in the second half of the 1930s, and continuing in the two decades following World War II, the late Colonial Revival departed from the more literal historicism of the previous half -century and was often reduced to a few signature elements. These features include stylized door surrounds; pseudo-quoined corners; multi -paned casement or double -hung sash windows, often framed by decorative shutters; circular, oval, or octagonal accent windows; and eaves nearly flush with the exterior walls. A hipped roof subtype sometimes contained Regency references such as bow and bay windows. Another popular subtype was split-level, ranch, or Cape Cod in appearance and plan, and normally topped by gabled roofs. The materials used in the late Colonial Revival were similar to those of the earlier period—wood, brick, stone, and stucco—although stucco came to be used more frequently than before. One of the oldest American architectural genres, Cape Cod design originated in New England in the late eighteenth century with English settlers, who modified a common English precedent for the new climate and materials. Older examples of Cape Cod houses were usually one -and -a -half stories in height, with a steeply- pitched, side -gabled roof to accommodate the upper story. The Cape Cod style of home persisted as a popular style through the late nineteenth century and then experienced a revival in the 1940s and 1950s because they were easy to construct and relatively affordable, making them attractive to post -World War II builders and home buyers alike.Twentieth century examples are usually one to two stories in height, rectangular in plan and shape, and topped by a side gable roof of medium to steep pitch with little or no overhang. Siding is most commonly wood but may also be brick or stucco. Facades are generally symmetrical, with a central entry flanked by one or two bays of wood -framed windows, usually multi -paned and double -hung. Detailing is consistent with the Colonial Revival. Cape Cod styling was also utilized in two other mid -twentieth century styles, Minimal Traditional and Ranch. Summary/Conclusion The Gabriel House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 for its representation of the distinguishing characteristics of the Cape Cod variant of the Colonial Revival style. Additionally, the house has been categorized as "Contributive" because it contributes to the "overall character and history" of the Floral Park neighborhood and "is a good example of period architecture" representing the Cape Cod style in Santa Ana (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2), EXPLANATION OF CODES: California Register Criteria for Evaluation: (From California Office of Historic Preservation, Technical Assistance Series # 7, "How to Nominate Resources to the California Register of Historical Resources," September 4, 2001.) 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. • 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. 5S1: Contributor to a district that is listed or designated locally.

Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries) Located on the west side of Heliotrope Street, the Gabriel House is a one-story, single-family residence constructed in the Cape Cod variant of the American Colonial Revival style. A strong horizontality of massing also suggests the influence of the contemporaneous Ranch style. The exterior of the house is clad in wide, horizontal, wood siding. A medium -pitched, side- gab/ed roof with modest eaves detailed with a plain frieze board spans the symmetrically arranged, front (east) wing. Two intersecting gables in the rear top north and south wings, creating a squared 'U" plan that encloses a small rear patio. A brick Chimney attached to the north elevation appears to be original while an interior brick Chimney, approximately centered west of the side gable ridgeline, appears more modern in materials. The fagade is a textbook example of Cape Cod design, containing a central entry flanked by two, large, eight -over -eight, double -hung sash windows to either side. Shutters adorn the windows. The entry is recessed between two slender pilasters and consists of a paneled wood door with sidelights. Front -gabled (See Continuation Sheet 3 of 4.) *133b.

Description (continued): dormers are centered above each pair of windows and contain six -light windows. Windows on other elevations are also wood -framed, double -hung sash. A lunette -shaped gable end vent is visible on the south elevation. Accessed by a poured concrete driveway, a detached, three -car garage is located along the western (rear) parcel boundary. The garage is one- story and capped by a moderately -pitched, side -gabled roof. Bordered by a low picket fence, the rectangular parcel is primarily landscaped with lawn, low trees, and various low vegetation at the deep front setback. The property is in good condition and retain ample integrity to convey the original design. *B10. Significance (continued): Santa Ana was founded by William Spurgeon in 1869 as a speculative town site on part of the Spanish land grant known as Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. The civic and commercial core of the community was centered around the intersection of Main and Fourth Streets. Stimulated by the arrival of the Santa Fe Railroad and incorporation as a city in 1886, and selection as the seat of the newly created County of Orange in 1889, the city grew outwards, with residential neighborhoods developing to the north, south, and east of the city center. Agricultural uses predominated in the outlying areas, with cultivated fields and orchards dotted with widely scattered farmhouses. The Gabriel House is located in Floral Park, a neighborhood northwest of downtown Santa Ana bounded by West Seventeenth Street, North Flower Street, Riverside Drive, and Broadway. Groves of oranges, avocados, and walnuts and widely scattered ranch houses characterized this area before 1920. Developer and builder Allison Honer (1897-1981), credited as the subdivider and builder of a major portion of northwest Santa Ana, arrived in Santa Ana from Beaver Falls, New York in 1922 (Talbert, pages 353-356). "Before nightfall on the day of his arrival, Mr. Honer purchased a parcel of land. And that month, he began building custom homes in Santa Ana "(Orange County Register, September 15, 1981). The parcel chosen became the Floral Park subdivision between Seventeenth Street and Santiago Creek. "When built in the 1920s, the Floral Park homes were the most lavish and expensive in the area. They sold for about $45,000 each" (Orange County Register, September 15, 1981). Revival architecture in a wide variety of romantic styles was celebrated in the 1920s and 1930s and Floral Park showcased examples of the English Tudor, French Norman, Spanish Colonial, and Colonial Revival. The Allison Honer Construction Company went on to complete such notable projects as the 1935 Art Deco styled Old Santa Ana City Hall, the El Toro Marine Base during World War ll, and the 1960 Honer Shopping Plaza. Honer lived in the neighborhood he had helped to create, at 615 West Santa Clara Avenue. In the late 1920s and 1930s, another builder, Roy Roscoe Russell (1881-1965), continued developing the groves of Floral Park. An early Russell project was his 1928 subdivision of Victoria Drive between West Nineteenth Street and West Santa Clara Avenue. The homes were quite grand and displayed various revival styles, including Russell's own large, Colonial Revival mansion at 2009 Victoria Drive. In the early post World War 11 years, Floral Park continued its development as numerous, smaller, single-family houses were built. Continuing in the Floral Park tradition, they were mostly revival in style. In the 1950s, low, horizontal Ranch Style houses completed the growth of Floral Park. Today (2018) Floral Park maintains its identity as the premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens. The Gabriel House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 for its representation of the distinguishing characteristics of the Cape Cod variant of the Colonial Revival style. Additionally, the house has been categorized as "Contributive" because it contributes to the "overall character and history" of the Floral Park neighborhood and "Is a good example of period architecture" representing the Cape Cod style in Santa Ana (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2). Character defining features of the Gabriel House that should be preserved include, but may not be limited to: materials and finishes (siding, wood trim, brick); roof configuration, materials, and treatment; massing and composition; fenestration (doors and windows); and architectural detailing (dormers, window shutters, pilasters).

Signature features of the style include steeply pitched gables; decorative half-timbering; arched openings, often Tudor or Gothic in form; asymmetrical arrangements of building features; tall brick chimneys; and picturesque windows of leaded glass or diamond patterned lights. The more ambitious examples of the Tudor Revival were executed in brick or even stone; however, stucco over wood frame is quite common in the forgiving climate of Southern California. The Tudor Revival was favored primarily for residential buildings, although small scale commercial buildings in the style also occur. Born in the late 19th century, the Tudor Revival was associated with some Craftsman era building but was most popular during the 1920s and 1930s, SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The Heath House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, for its exemplification of the distinguishing characteristics of the Tudor Revival style. Additionally, the house has been categorized as "Contributive" because it "contributes to the overall character and history" of the Floral Park neighborhood, and, as an intact example of the Tudor Revival style in the Floral Park neighborhood, "is a good example of period architecture" (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).

Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries) Located in Floral Park, this one-story residence is a highly characteristic example of a modestly sized Tudor Revival home from the late 1920s. The steeply pitched, cross -gabled roof tops the stucco covered building and incorporates a side gable that spans the building and two front gables. The once wood -shingled roof includes rolled edges with little or no overhangs. The smaller of the front gables tops a centered entry vestibule accessed by two arched openings, each of which is outlined by stone quoins. A round -headed, wooden front door opens off the vestibule. Stone quoins also decorate two large, rounded tripartite windows located to either side of the entry. The north window is centered beneath the larger front gable, whose extended north rake tops an arched opening in a wing well, Diamond-shaped, attic vents are located in the ends of the large front and side gables. A tall brick chimney with stucco finish is attached to the south elevation. Simply landscaped, the front (east) facade appears to be unaltered, other than the installation of new pavers on the front walkway and the "Hollywood driveway" with a central strip of grass on the south side of the property. The driveway leads to a detached, one-story, stucco - clad, front -gabled garage, built at the same time as the residence and also detailed with a diamond-shaped vent.

It drew from the wood building traditions of Japan and Switzerland as well as the medieval themes favored by the Arts and Crafts philosophers. Craftsman architecture stressed honesty of form, materials, and workmanship, eschewing applied decoration in favor of the straightforward expression of structure. A new appreciation of nature was evident in horizontal lines that reached out to embrace the landscape and the incorporation of capacious porches into building plans. Primarily a residential style, Craftsman architecture can be identified by low pitched gable and hipped roofs with exposed rafters and beams in deep overhangs; wood lap or shingle siding and an occasional use of stucco; extensive use of stone or brick as a secondary material; horizontal emphasis apparent in roof lines, headers, and battered porch supports; and broadly proportioned wood framed windows, often clustered in bands. Craftsman homes were built from circa 1902 until the early 1920s. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The Rose House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, for its exemplification of the distinguishing characteristics of the Craftsman/Bungalow style; Criterion 2, as a work from notable architect, Frederick Eley, whose work influenced architectural development in Santa Ana and Orange County; and Criterion 4, for its contribution to the historic French Park neighborhood. Additionally, the house has been categorized as "Key" for its "distinctive architectural style and quality," embodying the massing, materials, and detailing of Craftsman design; for its "association with a significant period in the history of the city', namely the development of French Park as the premier residential district of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries in Santa Ana; and "association with a significant person' and notable architect, Frederick Eley (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).

Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries) The Rose House is a two-story, Craftsman style, single-family residence, capped with a low-pitched side -facing gabled roof with wide eaves and accented with triangular knee braces. Vertical boards with vertical cutouts ending in circles add a Swiss touch to the peaks of the gables. Wood shingles cover the second floor, while the lower story is clad in stucco. The fagade is symmetrical in composition. Bands of five casement windows, each featuring four lights delineated by a grid of muntins in the top third, are located to the north and south of the central entry on the first floor. Pairs of six -over -one double -hung windows are used on the side bays of the second floor while a pair of smaller casement windows occupies the central bay on this level. Upper story windows are topped by heavy, tapered lintels composed of shingles. The upper stories of the side elevations are similarly fenestrated. A single -storied entry porch features a broadly pitched, front gable roof that rests on pairs of exposed beams and exposed rafters. Pairs of wood posts, connected by slant -cut beam "capitals," support the porch roof. The front door is a broadly proportioned wood slab, pierced by three vertical windows, and recently restored to its natural finish. A similar porch is attached to the north elevation and a slanted bay window is located on the south elevation. The most visible alteration to the house, which has recently been sensitively rehabilitated, is the non -original texture of the stucco cladding covering the first floor. Building permits also document an interior remodel to the first and second floor; conversion of the existing rear porch into a laundry room with new door, door side lights and one new hung window; and replacement of non -original wood shingles; replacement of a second -story window. Other than the noted changes, the house appears intact and is in good condition. *P3b. Resource Attributes: (list attributes and codes) HP2. Single -Family Residence *P4.

Significance: Theme Residential Architecture Area Santa Ana Period of Significance: 1911 Property Type: Single -Family Residence Applicable Criteria: A/1, C/3 (Discuss importance in terms of historical or architectural context as defined by theme, period, and geographic scope. Also address integrity) The Rose House is historically significant for its contribution to the National Register of Historic Places -listed French Park historic district and architecturally significant for its association with architect Frederick Eley. It is a good example of Eley's work in the Craftsman style, with its low-pitched side -gabled roof treatment, strongly horizontal lines, and use of wood reminiscent of Swiss and Japanese architectural traditions. Eley has been labeled, with reason, Santa Ana's premier historic architect. He was born and educated in England, migrated to Canada, and eventually landed in Santa Ana in 1911. He opened an architectural practice and within two years had built a substantial portfolio of architectural commissions throughout Orange County that included several schools, numerous residences, and a variety of commercial and institutional buildings. He proved himself to be master of many architectural oeuvres, including the Craftsman style, which he demonstrated in his design for this house. The Rose House was built in 1911 and the first known resident was Sarah E. Bloodgood. Ms. Bloodgood originally purchased the property from W.H. Spurgeon Realty Company and ultimately built the Rose House for the amount of $3,000. After a twelve month illness Ms. Bloodgood passed in 1912. In 1915, Mr. and Mrs. W.S. Rose purchased the residence for $3,500. Little is known about Mr. W.S. Rose. However, Mrs. W.S. Rose was President of the Santa Ana Women's Christian Temperance Union (W.C.T.U) and hosted a number of community organizations and social events. Mr. and Mrs. W.S. Rose continued to live in the residence until at least 1963. According to city directories, the next resident was Thomas B. Gorman, who resided at the property until 2015.

Significance (continued): Santa Ana was founded by William Spurgeon in 1869 as a speculative town site on part of the Spanish land grant known as Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. The civic and commercial core of the community was centered around the intersection of Main and Fourth Streets. Stimulated by the arrival of the Santa Fe Railroad and incorporation as a city in 1886, and selection as the seat of the newly created County of Orange in 1889, the city grew outwards, with residential neighborhoods developing to the north, south, and east of the city center. Agricultural uses predominated in the outlying areas, with cultivated fields and orchards dotted with widely scattered farmhouses. The Rose House is located in French Park, a neighborhood northeast of downtown Santa Ana bounded by Bush Street, Washington Street, Garfield Street, and Civic Center Drive. Beginning in the 1880s and continuing well into the twentieth century, the area around the park began to be developed with many of the finest homes in Santa Ana. Examples of Victorian era, turn of the century, and Craftsman homes were built along the tree -lined streets. By the 1920s, most streets in the neighborhood were fully developed, although a few revival styled single family homes and duplexes were built during the 1920s, and a handful of apartments constructed in the 1930s. From the nineteenth century onwards, residents were a "Who's Who" of early Santa Ana, and included bankers, attorneys, doctors, businessmen, ranchers, teachers and others active in the civic and social life of the city. Once known as the "Nob Hill" of Santa Ana, French Park declined in the 1940s and 1950s as some homes were converted into rooming houses and others were allowed to deteriorate. In the 1960s and 1970s some houses were demolished and the properties redeveloped with multi -family housing. However, a grass roots preservation effort begun in the late 1970s led to the establishment of a local historic district in 1984 and the listing of the neighborhood in the National Register of Historic Places in 1999. The Rose House, which was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1999 as a contributor to the French Park Historic District and is listed in the California Register of Historical Resources, qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under mulitiple criteria: Criterion 1, for its exemplification of the distinguishing characteristics of the Craftsman/Bungalow style; Criterion 2, as a work from notable architect, Frederick Eley, whose work influenced architectural development in Santa Ana and Orange County; and Criterion 4, for its contribution to the historic French Park neighborhood. Additionally, the house has been categorized as "Key" for its "distinctive architectural style and quality," embodying the massing, materials, and detailing of Craftsman design; for its "association with a significant period in the history of the city; namely the development of French Park as the premier residential district of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries in Santa Ana; and "association with a significant person" and notable architect, Frederick Eley.

NO. ADDRESS 2140 North Flower Street CITY Santa Ana ZIP 1 92706 ORANGE COUNTY YEAR BUILT 1938 LOCAL REGISTER CATEGORY: Contributive HISTORIC DISTRICT I N/A NEIGHBORHOOD Floral Park CALIFORNIA REGISTER CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION 3 CALIFORNIA REGISTER STATUS CODE 5S1 Location: ❑ Not for Publication ® Unrestricted ❑ Prehistoric ® Historic ❑ Both ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Ranch House Widely published in Sunset and House Beautiful magazines, the Ranch House dominated post -World War II residential expansion and represented the most popular house form in the United States from the 1950s through 1970s. The Ranch House originated in the 1930's designs of Southern California architect Cliff May, who sought to reinvent the west's vernacular housing traditions by combining the form and massing of the traditional ranch house with a modernist's concern for informality, expressed in materials and plan, and indoor -outdoor integration. While the style includes several variants, a basic set of character -defining features applies to most examples. In form and massing, the style evokes a sprawling ranch that developed over time, with a central block extended by wings of varying roof heights. Generally L-shaped or U-shaped in plan, the Ranch House typically has a one-story profile with strong horizontal emphasis expressed through a low pitched or flat roof with wide overhanging eaves. Asymmetrical in design, the Ranch House is often sheathed in and accented with rustic materials such as board -and -batten siding, high brick foundations, art stone, and wood shake roofs. Indoor -outdoor integration is achieved through the use of recessed or extended porches, set low to the ground, and the generous use of large picture, ribbon, or corner windows. Window detailing can include wood frames, decorative shutters, and diamond -patterned muntins. Ornamentation includes rusticated elements, such as carved porch supports and exposed rafters, uneven rakes and flared eaves, and faux dove cotes and bird houses. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The Butler House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, for its exemplification of the distinguishing characteristics of the Ranch House style. Additionally, the house has been categorized as "Contributive" because it "contributes to the overall character and history" of Santa Ana, and, as an intact example of the Ranch House style in the Floral Park neighborhood, "is a good example of period architecture" (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).

Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries) Located in Floral Park, this is a one-story single-family residence on a large parcel, sited with a deep setback and constructed in a Ranch House style. A detached garage is located a few feet behind (west oo the north end of the rear (west) elevation of the residence. The house and garage delineate a reversed "L" -shaped plan, which embraces a generously sized rear patio. Asymmetrical in design, the house exhibits a strong horizontal emphasis expressed through a low pitched, gable -on -hip ("dutch gable) roof with wide, overhanging, enclosed eaves. The exterior of the house is clad in a combination of brick, smooth stucco, and horizontal wood board (shiplap) siding, while board and batten siding covers the garage. The roof treatment defines three sections of the front (east) fagade. In the middle, the entry porch is characterized by brick cladding around the door and below a large, tripartite, metal -framed, casement window. Lacy, New Orleans -style, wrought iron posts support the porch roof overhang. Metal -framed casement windows also appear in the north and south sections of the fagade, along with a porthole window. An interior brick chimney rises above the roof ridgeline. Alterations to the house include the removal of original wood roof shingles, paint, and detachable awnings at the front elevation windows. Other than the relatively minor noted changes, the house appears intact and is in good condition. *P3b. Resource Attributes: (list attributes and codes) HP2. Single -Family Residence *P4.

Significance (continued): Santa Ana was founded by William Spurgeon in 1669 as a speculative town site on part of the Spanish land grant known as Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. The civic and commercial core of the community was centered around the intersection of Main and Fourth Streets. Stimulated by the arrival of the Santa Fe Railroad and incorporation as a city in 1886, and selection as the seat of the newly created County of Orange in 1889, the city grew outwards, with residential neighborhoods developing to the north, south, and east of the city center. Agricultural uses predominated in the outlying areas, with cultivated fields and orchards dotted with widely scattered farmhouses. The Butler House is located in Floral Park, a neighborhood northwest of downtown Santa Ana bounded by West Seventeenth Street, North Flower Street, Riverside Drive, and Broadway. This neighborhood is northwest of downtown Santa Ana bounded by West Seventeenth Street, North Flower Street, Riverside Drive, and Broadway. Groves of oranges, avocados, and walnuts and widely scattered ranch houses characterized this area before 1920. Developer and builder Allison Honer (1897-1981), credited as the subdivider and builder of a major portion of northwest Santa Ana, arrived in Santa Ana from Beaver Falls, New York in 1922 (Talbert, pages 353-356). "Before nightfall on the day of his arrival, Mr. Honer purchased a parcel of land. And that month, he began building custom homes in Santa Ana" (Orange Countv Reaister, September 15, 1981). The parcel chosen became the Floral Park subdivision between Seventeenth Street and Santiago Creek. "When built in the 1920s, the Floral Park homes were the most lavish and expensive in the area. They sold for about $45,000 each" (Orange County Register, September 15, 1981). Revival architecture in a wide variety of romantic styles was celebrated in the 1920s and 1930s and Floral Park showcased examples of the English Tudor, French Norman, Spanish Colonial, and Colonial Revival. The Allison Honer Construction Company went on to complete such notable projects as the 1935 Art Deco styled Old Santa Ana City Hall, the El Toro Marine Base during World War II, and the 1960 Honer Shopping Plaza. Honer lived in the neighborhood he had helped to create, at 615 West Santa Clara Avenue. In the late 1920s and 1930s, another builder, Roy Roscoe Russell (1881-1965), continued developing the groves of Floral Park. An early Russell project was his 1928 subdivision of Victoria Drive between West Nineteenth Street and West Santa Clara Avenue. The homes were quite grand and displayed various revival styles, including Russell's own large, Colonial Revival mansion at 2009 Victoria Drive. In the early post World War 11 years, Floral Park continued its development as numerous, smaller, single-family houses were built. Continuing in the Floral Park tradition, they were mostly revival in style. In the 1950s, low, horizontal Ranch Style houses completed the growth of Floral Park. Today (2018) Floral Park maintains its identity as the premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens. The Butler House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, for its exemplification of the distinguishing characteristics of the Ranch House style. Additionally, the house has been categorized as "Contributive" because it "contributes to the overall character and history" of Santa Ana, and, as an early and intact example of the Ranch House style in the Floral Park neighborhood, "is a good example of period architecture." Character defining features of the Butler House that should be preserved include, but may not be limited to, materials and finishes (brick, stucco, horizontal wood board siding; vertical board and batten siding); low pitched dutch -gable roof with wide overhanging eaves; brick chimney, metal detailing (porch supports); porthole window; metal casement windows; and front entry porch. *B12.
