State of California —The Resources Agency Primary # l <br />DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION HRI # <br />CONTINUATION SHEET Trinomial <br />*Recorded by James Williams <br />*P3a. Description (continued): <br />*Date July 15, 202417 Continuation ❑ Update <br />The detached garage is located at the southwest of the residence. It has a long rectangular plan, gabled roof with asphalt <br />shingle cladding, and stucco siding throughout. On the east fagade, the board -and -batten swing -up garage door faces a <br />concrete driveway, which leads to north Spurgeon Street (Figure 8). While its front (east) end does not reflect the influence of <br />any discernible architectural style, the rear echoes the Mid -Century Modern styling of the rear addition to the residence. This <br />is most evident in the large window assembly on the south fagade, which is characterized by its grid form and heavy wood <br />mullions, in addition to two separate ribbons of steel casement windows, which provide a horizontal emphasis characteristic <br />of architectural Modernism (Figure 9). Additional features of the garage include a glazed French and glazed standard -size <br />door, both on the south fagade. - <br />The front yard is landscaped with a lawn and mature trees and shrubs. Tracing the front property line is a wood post -and -rail <br />fence, which visual observation suggests is not original to the property. <br />*B10. Significance (continued): <br />City property records show Vitule continued to own the residence until 2003. She was succeeded by Miles Erlich and the <br />current owners, Carter and Chelsea Sapp. <br />The M. Jackson House is located in the Park Santiago neighborhood, an area bounded by Santiago Creek and Park on the <br />north, East Seventeenth Street on the south, North Lincoln Avenue on the east, North Main Street on the west, and the 1-5 <br />freeway on the southwest. In large part these boundaries reflect the transportation lines that were constructed towards the <br />end of the nineteenth century and at the beginning of the twentieth century, when the Pacific Electric interurban railroad ran <br />up Main Street; the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe tracks followed Lincoln; and the Southern Pacific Railroad right-of-way <br />mirrored the freeway route. <br />This area remained primarily agricultural well into the 1920s. As of 1905, the city directories listed around twenty households <br />on East Santa Clara, Twentieth Street; "C Street" (now North Santiago Street), North Bush Street and North Main Avenue, <br />the only streets in the area at the time. The vast majority of the residents were ranchers. By 1911, the number of households <br />had increased to about thirty, and Edgewood Road and Valencia Street had been partially laid out, but most residents <br />continued to list "rancher" or "fruit grower" as their occupation in the city directories. This pattern of land use was evident on <br />the 1912 plat map of the City, which illustrated two small, Craftsman era subdivisions along Bush north of Santa Clara and on <br />Valencia and Poinsettia south of Twentieth Street, with the remaining area divided into larger, agricultural parcels held by <br />approximately forty landowners. <br />While the area east of Santiago Street was not subdivided until after the mid-1920s, most of the present day streets west of <br />Santiago had been laid out when the City was mapped in 1923. Ranching continued to be the most prevalent occupation in <br />the neighborhood, but increasing numbers of professionals, small business owners, merchants, and people in service <br />professions such as painters, electricians, and carpenters made their homes in the western half of the neighborhood during <br />the 1920s and 1930s. The area also attracted several city and county officials, including the City Attorney (Z. B. West, Jr., <br />321 East Santa Clara Avenue), County Supervisor, First District (C. H. Chapman, 2315 North Santiago Street), County <br />Surveyor (E. H. Irvin, 2407 North Santiago Street), and County Auditor (William C. Jerome, 2422 Poinsettia Street). By April <br />1942, when the Sanborn Company first mapped the western half of the area, most of the lots had been improved with single- <br />family homes, many in the revival styles popular during the 1920s and 1930s. Subsequent development of the eastern half of <br />the neighborhood and infill construction in the western half displayed the simplified ranch style that emerged following World <br />War If. <br />The M. Jackson House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact <br />example of an Tudor Revival -style residence in Santa Ana. Located in Park Santaiago, the house cost $3,000 to build in <br />1928. The recommended categorization is "Contributive" because it is a good example of the Tudor Revival style and <br />contributes to the historical and architectural character of the neighborhood (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3). <br />Character -defining features of the M. Jackson House include, but may not be limited to: L-shaped plan; asymmetrical <br />primary fagade at the east; complex roof with hipped and high-pitched gabled elements; minimal roof overhang with boxed <br />eaves; moderately rough stucco siding; brick external chimney; full -height, multi -pane, wood -sash windows; tripartite focal <br />window with central fixed pane and flanking multi -pane wood sashes; recessed, diamond -glazed located adjacent to the front <br />entrance and to the focal window; gables with wood -plank siding; main entrance set within in a small gable and accessible by <br />two curved concrete steps; detached garage; and front yard lawn with landscaping including mature trees and shrubs. <br />*812.
