Also address integrity) <br />The Dixon House is architecturally notable as an intact and representative example of the Spanish Colonial Revival style and <br />is of historic interest as one of several homes in the Park Santiago neighborhood developed by the team of (Allison) Honer, <br />(Norman) Herzig and (first name unknown) Farney. The house and garage, valued at $8,000 on fhe building permit, were built <br />in 1927, at which time only four residences had been constructed on the block. When the house first appeared in the city <br />directories in 1928, the residents were Frederick A. Dixon, vice-president and manager of the Standard American Glass <br />Company, and his wife, Mary. The Dixons were succeeded in 1931 by Harry E. Welsh, a salesman for the Edison Company, <br />and his wife, Eleanor, and in 1932 by Charles L. Davis, a real estate salesman, and his wife, Ocia. Beginning in 1934 and <br />continuing until at least 1947, the house was the address of Abe Swindle, a clerk for the L. G. Holman company, and his wife, <br />Virginia. <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 3.) <br />611. Additional Resource Attributes: (List attributes and <br />*B12.
