English Revival homes usually feature stucco walls and gable roofs of steep but <br />not exaggerated pitch. A characteristic roof treatment incorporates uneven rakes, with one side of a gable extending a greater distance <br />than the other, sometimes changing the angle of slope in the process. Arches may be used for windows and doors, and, unlike their <br />Tudor cousins, are rounded rather than pointed. Windows are usually clustered in groups on the fal(ade and are often multi-paned <br />casement in type. Almost exclusively a residential style, English Revival buildings are nearly always asymmetrical in composition. <br /> <br />SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: <br /> <br />The Rogers-Morrison House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 for its <br />exemplification of the distinguishing characteristics of the English Revival style. Additionally, the house has been categorized as <br />"Contributive" because it "contributes to the overall character and history" of Santa Ana, and, as an example of the English Revival <br />style in the Floral Park neighborhood "is a good example of period architecture" (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2). <br /> <br />EXPLANATION OF CODES: <br /> <br />· California Register Criteria for Evaluation: (From California Office of Historic Preservation, Technical Assistance Series # 7, <br />"How to Nominate Resources to the California Register of Historical Resources," September 4,2001.) <br />3: It embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of construction, or represents the <br />work of a master, or possesses high artistic values. <br /> <br />· California Register Status Code: (From California Office of Historic Preservation, December 8, 2003.) <br />5S1: Individual property that is listed or designated locally. <br /> <br />EXHIBIT 2 <br />Pa!5N-6 <br />
