Also address integrity) <br />The Myers-Tubbs House is architecturally significant as an intact example of Minimal Traditional style of architecture in Floral Park. <br />According to the original building permit, the residence and garage were constructed as a speculative venture for J. Ogden Markel, <br />notable local builder, for a cost of $5, 500. Mr. Markel was also a local councilman, and was well known in the community and <br />region. The first occupant was W. H. Meyers. The home was next owned by Mabel Louise Tubbs. Her father, Volney Tubbs, <br />served on the Boarrl of Directors of the Santiago Orange Association and was also chairman of the Board of Exemption during <br />World War 1. Mabel was an avid photographer, and donated much of her work to the University of California, Irvine. The collection <br />includes photographs of President Benjamin Harrison's whistle-stop tour through Santa Ana in 1891 and three Southern California <br />coastal missions: San Juan Capistrano, San Luis Rey, and Santa Barbara. <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 4.) <br />B11.
