"1310. Significance (continued):
The Frandson-Mouwdy 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, 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 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 (2014) Floral Park maintains
its identity as the premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens.
The Frandson-Mouwdy House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 for its
exemplification of the distinguishing characteristics of the Late Colonial Revival style. The smooth stucco cladding and
horizontal woad board siding, multi -light double hung windows with faux shutters, and wood shingle roof cladding are all
characteristics of the style. The house also contributes to the historic character of the Floral Park neighborhood through its
age, style, scale, and historic association with important members of the local business and social community. Additionally,
the house has been categorized as "Key" because it has a distinctive architectural style and quality" in its presentation of
Late Colonial Revival style. All original exterior features of the Frandson-Mouwdy House are considered to be character
defining and should be preserved. These features include, but may not be limited to: materials and finishes (stucco,
horizontal wood boards); roof configuration, materials, and treatment; massing and composition; entry,, doors and windows;
and architectural detailing (shutters, gutters simulating save returns).

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.

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.
