<br />*B10. Significance (continued):
<br />Santa Ana was founded by William Spurgeon in 1869 as a speculative town site on part of the Spanish land grant known as
<br />Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. The civic and commercial core of the community was centered around the Intersection of
<br />Main and Fourth Streets. Stimulated by the arrival of the Santa Fe Railroad and incorporation as a city in 1886, and selection
<br />as the seat of the newly created County of Orange in 1889, the city grew outwards, with residential neighborhoods
<br />developing to the north, south, and east of the city center. Agricultural uses predominated in the outlying areas, with
<br />cultivated fields and orchards dotted with widely scattered farmhouses.
<br />The Schultz House is located in Fisher Park. The homes of the Jack Fisher Park neighborhood were built following the
<br />overwhelming success architects had In the early 1950's, when building homes using "California Ranch" architectural design
<br />and features. Homes located in our prestigious neighborhood range from 1,500-6,000 sqft, with lot sizes from 6,500-25,000
<br />sgft. Properties within this neighborhood boast some of the largest residential land use in any of the incorproated cities within
<br />Orange County and Southern California. Giving true meaning to the phrase, "Sprawling California Ranch" style homes.Jack
<br />Fisher Park was named after a local highly decorated World War i hero.
<br />The Schultz House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties as "Contributive". Additionally, the
<br />house has been categorized as "Contributive" because it "contributes to the overall character and history" of Santa Ana, and,
<br />as an intact example of the Ranch House style in the Fisher Park neighborhood, "is a good example of period architecture."
<br />Character -defining exterior features of the SchultzHouse that should be preserved include, but may not be limited to,
<br />materials and finishes (board -and -batten siding); roof configuration and detailing; original windows and doors where extant;
<br />and architectural details such as the courtyard walls, wood garage door, and beam roof supports.
