RE SOURCES PRESENT: <br />® Building ❑ Structure ❑ Object ❑ Site ❑ District ❑ Element of District <br />MOVED? ® No ❑ Yes ❑ Unknown Date: <br />Original Location: <br />❑ Other <br />STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: (Discuss importance in terms of historical or architectural context as defined by theme, <br />period, geographic scope, and integrity.) <br />This example of residential architecture during The City of Santa Ana's early development, is located in French Park Historic District. <br />This two-story single family residence, was built during the height of the development of French Park, a residential district advertised <br />as the "Nob Hill" of Orange County. French Park was home to many prominent businessman, doctors, bankers, attorneys and civil <br />servants from 1880 to the early 1940's. This is in excellent condition, in an unaltered state, and on its original site. Built in 1904, this <br />structure embodies the colonial revival sense of simplicity and dignified formality, with hipped roofs and centered prominent bellcast <br />hipped roofed dormers accented with three multi paned arched windows. The large porch, supported by paired wood columns, is <br />topped with a mansard roof adding to the Colonial Revival style. <br />This building has historic significance to the City of Santa Ana, because of its association with the Crookshank family, a prominent <br />and influential family during the formative years of the City. This house also has a unique architectural significance because of its <br />distinctive architectural details such as the bellcast hip -roofed dormers with arched windows and wide porch with four pairs of column <br />supports. <br />OWNER AND ADDRESS: Victoria Betancourt <br />810 N.
