An evolution of the Art Deco style, the Streamline Moderne flourished during the 1930s and lingered through the decade following World War II in a simplified version. In contrast to the verticality of earlier Art Deco designs, the Streamline Moderne and Art Moderne substyles emphasized the horizontal, through bands of windows, use of decorative raised or incised horizontal lines, railings, flat canopies with banded fascia, and narrow coping at the roofline. Other characteristics include smooth wall surfaces, usually of stucco; metal detailing; glass block or metal multi -light casement windows; rounded corners, porthole windows, and asymmetry. Incorporation of aerodynamic, transportation related imagery, especially nautical, is a signature of the style. In common with the Streamline Moderne, Art Moderne buildings also tended to be horizontal in emphasis, but tended to be more clean -lined and rectilinear in their massing and detailing than their streamlined counterparts. Art Moderne designs can be recognized by their flat roofs, smooth stucco exteriors, and use of metal casement windows that often meet at the corners of the building. — — — — SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The R.S. McGuire House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of an Art Moderne style home in Santa Ana. The recommended categorization is "Key" because it has a tistinetive architectural style and quality retlective of the Art Ivloaerne style.

Also address integrity) The R.S. McGuire House is architecturally significant as an intact example of an Art Moderne style house in Santa Ana. The original building permit is dated August 22, 1938, and indicates it was built as a single-family residence and garage for owner - contractor Allison Honer for $5,500, who appears to have been affiliated with the property only during the time of the intial building permit.

McGuire House is located in Floral Park, a neighborhood northwest of downtown Santa Ana bounded by West Seventeenth Street, North Flower Street, Riverside Drive, and Broadway. Groves of orange, avocado, and walnut trees and widely scattered ranch houses characterized this area before 1920. Developer and builder Allison Honer (1897-1981), credited as the subdivider and builder of a major portion of northwest Santa Ana, arrived in Santa Ana from Beaver Falls, New York in 1922 (Talbert, pages 353-356). "Before nightfall on the day of his arrival, Mr. Honer purchased a parcel of land. And that month, he began building custom homes in Santa Ana" (Orange County Register, September 15, 1981). The parcel chosen became the Floral Park subdivision between Seventeenth Street and Santiago Creek. "When built in the 1920s, the Floral Park homes were the most lavish and expensive in the area. They sold for about $45,000 each" (Orange County Register, September 15, 1981). Revival architecture in a wide variety of romantic styles was celebrated in the 1920s and 1930s and Floral Park showcased examples of the English Tudor, French Norman, Spanish Colonial, and Colonial Revival. The Allison Honer Construction Company went on to complete such notable projects as the 1935Ant-Dorn styled -Old -Santa Ana City Hall, the El Toro Marine Base during World War 11, and the 1960 Honer Shopping Plaza. Honer lived in the neighborhood he had helped to create, at 615 West Santa Clara Avenue. In the late 1920s and 1930s, another builder, Roy Roscoe Russell (1881-1965), continued developing the groves of Floral Park. An eady Russell project was his 1928 subdivision of Victoria Drive between West Nineteenth Street and West Santa Clara Avenue. The homes were quite grand and displayed various revival styles, including Russell's own large, Colonial Revival mansion at 2009 Victoria Drive. In 1937, Roy Rodney Russell, joined his father's firm and by 1945 it was renamed as Roy Russell and Son. In the early post World War 11 years, Floral Park continued its development as numerous, smaller, single-family houses were built. Continuing in the Floral Park tradition, they were mostly revival in style. in the 1950s, low, horizontal Ranch Style houses completed the growth of Floral Park. Today (2023) Floral Park maintains its identity as the premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens. The R.S. McGuire House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of an Art Moderns style home in Santa Ana. Located in Floral Park, the house cost $5,500 to build in 1938. The recommended categorization is "Key" because it has a distinctive architectural style and quality reflective of the Art Moderns style (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2). Character -defining features of the R.S. McGuire House include, but may not be limited to: T-shaped plan; asymmetrical primary fagades at the west and south; low -pitch hipped and gabled roof, minimal roof overhang and exposed rafter tails; smooth stucco siding with minimal texture throughout; stucco -clad chimney with exposed brick near the top; steel -frame multi -pane combination fixed -and -casement corner windows that wrap around building corners; building projections that are stepped back from the front (west) portion of the building; main entrance accessible by two curved concrete steps with a single, solid door and Art Moderns style metal door knocker that is situated below a curved roof awning; double -hung wood windows; pronounced window sill trim throughout; vent at the gable end; smooth or curved building comers; detached garage; and front yard lawn with landscaping including mature trees and shrubs. *812.

DPR 523L MILLS ACTAGREEMENT 2369 North Flower Street Santa Ana, CA 92706 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. 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 MILLSACTAGREEMENT 2369 North Flower Street Santa Ana, CA 92706 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- Exhibit D: Proposed Structure Improvements ("Work Plan") 2369 North Flower Street Item Year Improvement 1 2025 Repaint trim as needed. 2 2026 Remove non -compatible gutters.
