Also address integrity) <br /> <br />The Amling House is architecturally significant for its highly characteristic Art Moderne style and significanct for its association <br />with notable developer and prominent local builder, Allison C. Honer (1897-1981). Credited as the subdivider and builder of a <br />major portion of northwest Santa Ana, Honer arrived in Santa Ana from Beaver Falls, New York in 1922 (Talbert, pages 353- <br />356). The Allison Honer Construction Company went on to complete such notable projects as the 1935 Art Deco style Old <br />Santa Ana City Hall, the El Toro Marine Base during World War II, and the 1960 Honer Shopping Plaza. Honer lived in the <br />neighborhood he had helped to create, at 615 West Santa Clara Avenue. <br /> <br />According to city directories, the first known residents of the Amling House were Ernst C. Amling and Lydia S. Amling. Mr. <br />Amling was born on August 19, 1888, in Maywood Illinois, while Mrs. Amling (previously Hinz) was born on March 12, 1890, <br />in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. Along with his brothers, Ernst C. Amling owned and operated a wholesale flower nursery business <br />called Amling Bros., which was relocated from Chicago to Santa Ana in 1921. <br /> <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 3.) <br /> <br />B11.
