Also address integrity) <br />The R.S. McGuire House is architecturally significant as an intact example of an Art Moderne style house in Santa Ana. The <br />original building permit is dated August 22, 1938, and indicates it was built as a single-family residence and garage for owner- <br />contractor Allison Honer for $5,500, who appears to have been affiliated with the property only during the time of the intial <br />building permit. The original architect is unknown. City directories note that R.S. McGuire owned the property for at least 23 <br />years, from 1939-1962. R.S. (Mac) McGuire worked for heating equipment company O'Keefe and Merritt and later was <br />employed at Coffmans furniture-appliance store at 714 West 17th Street in Santa Ana (Santa Ana Register, March 7, 1946; <br />Santa Ana Register, March 30, 1950). From circa 1965-1979, Douglas Geraldine occupied the building. In 1980, J Darlingfriz <br />and Doug Friz are noted as building occupants. The 1985 Criss-Cross directories do not list the property owner. From circa <br />1986 to 2021, David Aeppli owned the subject property. City directories were not available from 1963-1964, 1966-1978, and <br />1984; directories from 1981-1983 and 1985 do not list the property owner or occupant. The present owners, Paul Gulino and <br />Julie Bidmead, purchased the property in 2021. <br />B11. Additional Resource Attributes: (List attributes and codes) <br />*B12.
