The Victorian Italianate style was one of the Late Victorian styles that flourished between 1860 —1890. The style emphasizes the vertical lines in volumes and elongated doors and windows. Wide overhanging eaves often with decorative brackets and hipped roofs, usually cap these buildings. Other significant features include balustrade balconies, comer quoins and rectangular windows with hood mouldings. The Craftsman Bungalow architectural style is an early 20s' century American movement, developed by Charles and Henry Greene of Pasadena, California. The height of the movement is between 1900 and 1920's. The Craftsman Bungalow is characterized by the use of natural wood for exposed massive beams and rafters and exterior siding. Some of the most prominent features are: low pitched gabled roof with wide overhangs and projecting brackets; the emphasis on horizontal shapes informally arranged; the use of shingles as exterior finish; broad, gabled entry porches; no applied ornament; creek rock foundations and porches. Many house include Japanese and Swiss influences in their exterior detailing.

Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, settings, and boundaries.) The unusual architectural character of this 1887 Victorian house can be explained by the 1925(19217) remodel that added Craftsman elements. At that time, the roof was raised, adding more rooms on the second floor and the porch was redesigned. The ell -shaped gabled roof, accented with single exposed beam ends, rafter tails, and louvered vents, features a prominent front bay on the east side. Casement windows with muntins in the top third are used throughout the second story. A railing of plain balusters, placed between square piers, borders the flat roof of the single -storied porch. Square wood posts, resting on paneled piers, support the 1925 front porch. From the Victorian era are the cut corners, tear drops, paired double hung windows with hood mouldings, and wide shiplap siding trimmed with corner boards. Page 2 of 4 LLWROcategory Titchenel-calland 5.12-00 Originally built by a Mr. Carden, the house was shortly after owned by the Titchenel's, a town constable. One of Santa Ana's most prominent pioneer families, the Titchenels came to the new village on November 9, 1869, one month after William Spurgeon bought the property that was to become Santa Ana. The Titchenels bought two lots. Tradition says that he built the town's first house, on Fourth and Main Streets. This was the second house, built in 1887. Originally, the property covered the whole block from Wellington to Washington and French to Lacy Streets. The block was later subdivided and is known as the Titchenel addition. From 1881 to 1886 he also built and operated the Titchenel Block in downtown Santa Ana. Serving as an early peace officer, he also was a fanner, a builder, and a teamster. Osgood and Aurelia Catland, along with their daughter Irene, a teacher in nearby Tustin, moved into this house in 1906, purchasing it four years later. In 1910, Osgood is listed as an engineer. The Catland family lived in the house until the 1980's.

This two story farm house was built during the early years of the development of French Park, a residential district advertised as the "Nob Hill" of Orange County. French Park was home to many prominent businessman, doctors, bankers, attorneys and civil servants from 1880 to the early 1940's. This house is in excellent condition, and on its original site. This building is characteristic of a significant period in the history of the City of Santa Ana. The house was built during the early formation and development of the City and French Park. While this building is associated with a significant person in the City, the Titchenel family, the subsequent owner extensively modified the house and it no longer reflects the architecture that existed when the Titchenel family lived here.

Wellington Avenue Santa Ana, CA 92701 Exhibit C Exterior work shall be reviewed by the Historic Resources Commission and subject to the U.S. Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation of Historic Buildings, as follows: 1. Every reasonable effort shall be made to provide a compatible use for a property which requires minimal alteration of the building, structure, or site and its environment, or to use a property for its originally intended purpose. 2. The distinguishing original qualities or character of a building, structure or site and its environment shall not be destroyed. The removal or alteration of any historic material or distinctive architectural features should be avoided when possible. 3. All buildings, structures, and sites shall be recognized as products of their own time. Alterations that have no historical basis and which seek to create an earlier appearance shall be discouraged. 4. Changes which may have taken place in the course of time are evidence of the history and development of a building, structure, or site and its environment. These changes may have acquired significance in their own right, and this significance shall be recognized and respected. 5. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship which characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with sensitivity. 6. Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather than replaced, whenever possible. In the event replacement is necessary, the new material should match the material being replaced in composition, design, color, texture, and other visual qualities. Repair or replacement of missing architectural features should be based on accurate duplications of features, substantiated by historic, physical, or pictorial evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the availability of different architectural elements from the other buildings or structures. 7. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the gentlest means possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will damage the historic building materials shall not be undertaken. 8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and reserve archaeological resources affected by, or adjacent to any project. 9. Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing properties shall not be discouraged when such alterations and additions do not destroy significant historical, architectural or cultural material, an such design is compatible with MILLSACT AGREEMENT 419 E. Wellington Avenue Santa Ana, CA 92701 size, scale, color, material and character of the property, neighborhood, or environment. 10. Wherever possible, new additions or alterations to structures shall be done in such a manner that if such additions or alterations need to be removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the structure would be unimpaired. 2-
