The Historic Resources Commissi ~n of the City of Santa Ana <br />hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: <br />A. The applicant is requesting approval of Historic Exterior Modification <br />Application No. 2009-02RML to remove from the City's Register of Historic <br />Properties the McGowan House located to ~14 East Santa Clara Avenue. <br />B. The McGowan House is individually listed pn the Santa Ana Register of <br />Historical Properties and is categorized as ~andmark. The structure was <br />originally built c. 1886 in the unadorned Folk Victorian architectural style. In <br />1938, the front facade was remodeled in th Colonial Revival architectural <br />style. The design characteristics of the Col nial Revival are its rectangular <br />shape, hipped roof with boxed eaves, wide s iplap siding with pilaster corner <br />boards, six over six wood windows and th asymmetrical recessed entry <br />framed by an unadorned pediment, fluted ilasters, sidelights and fanlight <br />above the door. A more recent remodel, 1988, added a rear two-story <br />addition with wood siding and windows similar to the windows installed with <br />the 1938 remodel. An exterior wood staircase to the second floor was part of <br />the addition. <br />C. The Commission has reviewed the McGowan House Register placement <br />for compliance with Chapter 30 of the Santa /Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) <br />Criteria of Selection. To be eligible for considjeration, a resource must be 50 <br />years old per SAMC 30-2(a). At the time th~ McGowan house was placed <br />on the Historical Register in 2005, the Colonial Revival style structure was <br />67 years old, exceeding the city's basic req irement for placement <br />consideration. Noteworthy is the structure's uality of Victorian <br />workmanship and materials that has enableQi the residence to survive <br />approximately 123 years. <br />D.
