ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: English Revival
A simplification of the Tudor Revival, which reached its height of popularity during the 1920s and 1930s, the English
Revival drew upon the English country house for its inspiration. English Revival homes usually feature stucco walls and
gable roofs of steep but not exaggerated pitch. A characteristic roof treatment incorporates uneven rakes, with one side
of a gable extending a greater distance than the other, sometimes changing the angle of slope in the process. Arches
may be used for windows and doors, and, unlike their Tudor cousins, are rounded rather than pointed. Windows are
usually clustered in groups on the fagade and are often multi -paned casement in type. Almost exclusively a residential
style, English Revival buildings are nearly always asymmetrical in composition.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSION:
The Lund House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, for its
exemplification of the distinguishing characteristics of the English Revival style. Additionally, the house has been
categorized as "Key" because it is an intact example of an English Revival residence in the Floral Park neighborhood,
"has a distinctive architectural style and quality" and "is associated with a significant person or event in the city' (Municipal
Code, Section 30-2.2).

Located on the east side of North Greenleaf Street, this building is a one-story, single-family residence constructed in the

from, and intersecting with, a principal side gable mass. There is a brick chimney consisting of an elaborate pattern of bricks
off the north elevation. The roof has little to no eaves and is clad in a composition shingle roofing in a staggered pattern. The
exterior is clad in stucco with half timbering or horizontal lapped siding in some gable ends. The primary entry is located on
the west elevation of the principal side gable mass under a contemporary fabric awning, and consists of a segmental arch
door with rectangular glazing in the upper portion. The asymmetrical exterior consists of fixed and casement windows that
mainly display multilight glazing or diamond-shaped muntins. A detached garage that appears to have been enlarged is
located to southeast of the residence. The garage has a moderate -pitch front gable roof with hall timbering, and is accessed
by a simple poured concrete driveway. The rectangular parcel is landscaped with a lawn, several mature palm trees, various
low vegetation, and planter beds with brick perimeters. The buildings and overall property are in good condition. The building
retains sufficient integrity to convey its original design.

The Lund House is architecturally significant as a characteristic example of the English Revival style. This house was
originally constructed in 1929, and was valued at approximately $4,000, according to the original building permit. While there
is no architect or contractor in the original building permit, the original owner is listed as Emmet C. Rogers, a contractor. It
does not appear that Rogers ever lived at the property, as he is recorded as living at 2112 North Greenleaf Street before and
after the date of construction. The first recorded occupants have not been determined, but the second recorded occupants
are Arnold T. and Grace L Lund, who moved to the residence some time before 1934, according to city directories. Both
Arnold and Grace were teachers at Frances Willard Junior High School, where Arnold coached and headed the athletic
department for 33 years (Orange County Register, May 13, 1977). The Lund Athletic Field there was also named in his
honor. Arnold and his wife Grace lived at the property until some time before 1937, when they moved to 826 North Lowell
Street in Santa Ana. The next recorded occupant was Carl J. and Elizabeth G. Eltiste. Carl was a salesman who lived at the
property with his wife Elizabeth until some time before 1949. According to city directories, The next recorded occupants were
John D. and Evelyn V. Hayes. John was the assistant Superindentent for Orange County schools, and Superintendent
thereafter, and he and his wife Evelyn resided at the property until some time after 1966.

The Lund 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 EI Toro Marine Base during World War 11, 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 It 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 (2014) Floral Park maintains
its identity as the premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens.
The Lund House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 for its exemplification
of the distinguishing characteristics of the English Revival style, and under Criterion 4.b for its association with a significant
figure in the history of Santa Ana. Typical features of this style illustrated by the house include its asymmetrical composition;
stucco walls; half timbering; and, diamond -pattern windows. Additionally, the house has been categorized as 'Key" because
it is an intact example of an English Revival residence in the Floral Park neighborhood, 'has a distinctive architectural style
and quality" and "is associated with a significant person or event in the city." All original exterior features of the Lund House
are considered to be character defining and should be preserved. These features include, but may not be limited to:
materials and finishes (stucco, siding); roof configuration, materials, and treatment; massing and composition; fenestration
(doors and windows); and architectural detailing (half timbering).

Exhibit C
Exterior work shall be reviewed by the Historic Resources Commission and subject to the U.S.
Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation of Historic Buildings, as follows:
1. Every reasonable effort shall be made to provide a compatible use for a property
which requires minimal alteration of the building, structure, or site and its
environment, or to use a property for its originally intended purpose.
2. The distinguishing original qualities or character of a building, structure or site
and its environment shall not be destroyed. The removal or alteration of any
historic material or distinctive architectural features should be avoided when
possible.
3. All buildings, structures, and sites shall be recognized as products of their own
time. Alterations that have no historical basis and which seek to create an earlier
appearance shall be discouraged.
4. Changes which may have taken place in the course of time are evidence of the
history and development of a building, structure, or site and its environment.
These changes may have acquired significance in their own right, and this
significance shall be recognized and respected.
5. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship which
characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with sensitivity.
6. Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather than replaced,
whenever possible. In the event replacement is necessary, the new material
should match the material being replaced in composition, design, color, texture,
and other visual qualities. Repair or replacement of missing architectural features
should be based on accurate duplications of features, substantiated by historic,
physical, or pictorial evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the
availability of different architectural elements from the other buildings or
structures.
7. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the gentlest means
possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will damage the historic
building materials shall not be undertaken.
8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and reserve archaeological
resources affected by, or adjacent to any project.
9. Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing properties shall not
be discouraged when such alterations and additions do not destroy significant
historical, architectural or cultural material, an such design is compatible with
size, scale, color, material and character of the property, neighborhood, or
environment.
10. Wherever possible, new additions or alterations to structures shall be done in such
a manner that if such additions or alterations need to be removed in the future, the
essential form and integrity of the structure would be unimpaired.
