Spurgeon <br />Street, Santa Ana <br />Hi Terri - <br />I'm an Associate Director with the Santa Ana Historical Preservation Society (SAHPS), and was <br />forwarded your inquiry about the First United Church property. SAHPS has reviewed the <br />description of the proposed project and find that the two accessory buildings proposed for demolition <br />are not historically significant despite being older. The buildings are utilitarian in nature and not <br />architecturally significant. <br />Whenever projects in Santa Ana include demolition of older buildings, SAHPS is interested in the <br />possibility of salvaging interior amenities. In this case the items of potential interest for SAHPS <br />include lighting, sinks, light switches, etc., particularly in the 1920s vintage "educational building." <br />Would CRM be amenable to making arrangements for SAHPS to do a walk-through of the older <br />building to check on potential salvage items? <br />If this is possible please let me know. <br />Terri, we appreciate your consideration in this matter. <br />Respectfully, <br />Alan Lawson <br />Associate Director, SAHPS <br /> <br />
