Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries) The West & West House is a characteristic example of the Tudor Revival style of architecture. The building is asymmetrical with a cross -gabled, moderately pitched roof. The West & West House sits at the northwest corner of East Santa Clara Avenue and French Street, with the primary and secondary elevations highly visible from two streets. The exterior is clad in stucco with decorative half-timbering at the primary and secondary street facing gables. The building is capped with a contemporary asphalt shingles. The building has two chimneys. One chimney is located at the south elevation adjacent to the front entry and is clad in stucco just above the roof line and wrapped in brick to the top. The second chimney is on the east elevation and is clad in stucco and capped with a terracotta chimney pot. The entry is accessed from the south elevation and is set in a recessed arch. The front entry door is located atop three steps clad in brick. The front entry door is a wood plank door with decorative hardware. The building has a combination of multi -pane casement and fixed windows. The garage is located at the northwest corner of the property and is accessed from French Street. While additions have been constructed to the rear of the house in a manner that does not detract from the architectural integrity, the stucco has been replaced in a finish that is not appropriate for the Tudor Revival style of the building. However, the stucco does not detract from the association of the building with significant figures in the history of Santa Ana, Z.B. West Jr. and Franklin G. West, and its qualification to be listed on the local register. *P3b. Resource Attributes: (list attributes and codes) HP2. Single -Family Residence *P4.

The West family played a vital role in the courtrooms of old Orange County for more than sixty years. Z.B. West Sr., Z.B. West Jr. and Franklin G. West's father, served as a Superior Court Judge from 1903 until his death in 1926. Judge West Sr. served as Santa Ana's City Attorney for seven years, then was appointed the District Attorney in 1897. In addition to his contribution to the legal profession, Judge West Sr. was also active in education circles and was a devoted member of the First Baptist Church in Santa Ana. Judge West Sr. was called by the Register "the guiding light of Orange County law." (See Continuation Sheet 3 of 3.) B11. Additional Resource Attributes: (List attributes and *B12.

Significance (continued): Z.B. West Jr. was the first owner and recorded occupant of the West & West House, according to city directories. Z.B. West Jr. graduated from Santa Ana High School and continued his studies at Stanford, where he graduated with honors in the class of 1917. After completing honorable and active service with the American expeditionary forces in France during WWI, West Jr. spent sixteen weeks at a French university. He then returned to California and was admitted to the bar in 1921, after which he established his law practice in Santa Ana. Z.B. West Jr. followed in his father's footsteps and served as both Santa Ana City Attorney from 1923 to 1927 and District Attorney from 1927 to 1930. According to city directories, Franklin G. West resided at the residence after his brother, from 1932 until 1962. Franklin G. West also followed in his father's footsteps, serving as a Superior Court judge. Franklin G. West passed the bar in 1923 after graduating from Stanford, and practiced law with his brother Z.B. West Jr. in Santa Ana. Franklin G. West then went on to become Superior Courtjudge in 1938, and served in that capacity from 1939 until 1965. Franklin passed away in 1976. Franklin was held in such high esteem by the Orange County Bar Association (OCBA), that their highest honor bestowed is a lifetime achievement award, which was established in memory of Judge Franklin G. West. According to the OCBA, Judge Franklin G. West epitomized the best of the legal profession, both as an attorney and a judge. The award, which recognizes an outstanding attorney orjudge whose lifetime achievements have advanced justice and the law, is presented annually. Outside of the courthouse, a third brother, Eddie West, made his name as the longtime sports editor of the Santa Ana Register. Eddie West Field at the Santa Ana Stadium is named in his honor. Santa Ana was founded by William Spurgeon in 1869 as a speculative town site on part of the Spanish land grant known as Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. The civic and commercial core of the community was centered around the intersection of Main and Fourth Streets. Stimulated by the arrival of the Santa Fe Railroad and incorporation as a city in 1886, and selection as the seat of the newly created County of Orange in 1889, the city grew outwards, with residential neighborhoods developing to the north, south, and east of the city center. Agricultural uses predominated in the outlying areas, with cultivated fields and orchards dotted with widely scattered farmhouses. The West & West House is located in the Santiago Park neighborhood. The neighborhood is bounded by Santiago Creek and Park on the north, East Seventeenth Street on the south, North Lincoln Avenue on the east, North Main Street on the west, and the I-5 freeway on the southwest. In large part these boundaries reflect the transportation lines that were constructed towards the end of the nineteenth century and at the beginning of the twentieth century, when the Pacific Electric interurban railroad ran up Main Street, the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe tracks followed Lincoln; and the Southern Pacific Railroad right-of-way mirrored the freeway route. This area remained primarily agricultural well into the 1920s. As of 1905, the city directories listed around twenty households on East Santa Clara, Twentieth Street, "C Street" (now North Santiago Street), North Bush Street and North Main Avenue, the only streets in the area at the time. The vast majority of the residents were ranchers. By 1911, the number of households had increased to about thirty, and Edgewood Road and Valencia Street had been partially laid out, but most residents continued to list "rancher" or "fruit grower" as their occupation in the city directories. This pattern of land use was evident on the 1912 plat map of the City, which illustrated two small, Craftsman era subdivisions along Bush north of Santa Clara and on Valencia and Poinsettia south of Twentieth Street, with the remaining area divided into larger, agricultural parcels held by approximately forty landowners. While the area east of Santiago Street was not subdivided until after the mid -1920s, most of the present day streets west of Santiago had been laid out when the City was mapped in 1923. Ranching continued to be the most prevalent occupation in the neighborhood, but increasing numbers of professionals, small business owners, merchants, and people in service professions such as painters, electricians, and carpenters made their homes in the western half of the neighborhood during the 1920s and 1930s, The area also attracted several city and county officials, including the City Attorney (Z. B. West, Jr., 321 East Santa Clara Avenue), County Supervisor, First District (C. H. Chapman, 2315 North Santiago Street), County Surveyor (E. H. Irvin, 2407 North Santiago Street), and County Auditor (William C. Jerome, 2422 Poinsettia Street). By April 1942, when the Sanborn Company first mapped the western half of the area, most of the lots had been improved with single- family homes, many in the revival styles popular during the 1920s and 1930s. Subsequent development of the eastern half of the neighborhood and infill construction in the western half displayed the simplified ranch style that emerged following World War ll. The West & West House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 4 for its association with famous people in history of Santa Ana. Additionally, the house has been categorized as "Key" because of its association with two significant persons in the history of Santa Ana and of Orange County, Z.B. West Jr. and Franklin G. West. Character defining features of the West & West House that should be preserved, include, but not limited to: exterior materials and finishes (half-timbering); roof configuration, materials, and treatment, massing and composition, doors and windows (original multi -pane wood casement windows, where extant); chimney; and, arched entry.

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 temperate climate of Southern California. The Tudor Revival was favored primarily for residential buildings, although small scale commercial buildings in the style were also constructed. 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 West & West House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 4 for its association with famous people in history of Santa Ana.
