Exhibit B EXECUTIVE SUMMARY E.A. Noe House 2117 Greenleaf Street Santa Ana, CA 92707 NAME E.A. Noe House REF. NO. ADDRESS 2117 Greenleaf Street CITY Santa Ana ZIP 92707 ORANGE COUNTY YEAR BUILT 1925 LOCAL REGISTER CATEGORY: Contributive HISTORIC DISTRICT I N/A NEIGHBORHOOD Floral Park CALIFORNIA REGISTER CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION C/3 CALIFORNIA REGISTER STATUS CODE 5S3 Location: ❑ Not for Publication ® Unrestricted ❑ Prehistoric ® Historic ❑ Both ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Tudor Revival The Tudor Revival looked to medieval England for its inspiration. Signature features of the style include steeply pitched gables; decorative half-timbering; arched openings, often Tudor or Gothic in form; asymmetrical arrangements of building features; tall brick chimneys; and picturesque windows of leaded glass or diamond patterned lights. The more ambitious examples of the Tudor Revival were executed in brick or even stone; however, stucco over wood frame is quite common in the forgiving climate of southern California. The Tudor Revival was favored primarily for residential buildings, although small scale commercial buildings in the style also occur. Originating in the late 19th century, the Tudor Revival was associated with some Craftsman era building but was most popular during the 1920s and 1930s. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The E.A. Noe House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Tudor Revival-style home in Santa Ana. The recommended categorization is "Contributive" because it is a good example of the style and contributes to the historical and architectural character of its neighborhood.
