SUMMARY
Built in 1967 and located in the Highland Park community, this two-story rectangular-planned commercial building exhibited character-defining features of the Late Modern style. Built as a supermarket, the subject building is set back from York Boulevard to allow for a parking lot. Symmetrically composed, the building features a front-facing reinforced concrete arched roof covered with rolled composition. A large arched beam forms the fascia at the base of the roof, extending beyond the side eaves. This roof structure forms the primary architectural feature of the subject building. The exterior walls are glass, aluminum, and steel flanked by stone covered wings with vertical banding. Large plate glass windows with off-center entrances bisected by a centrally located sign board compose the main façade. The back elevation of the subject building features the roof arch form with unadorned concrete walls. The interior features an open space with an undulating arched ceiling and exposed I-beams. Secondary structures on the subject property include a large pole sign.
The proposed Highland Park Safeway Store historic monument was designed by the firm Novikoff Engineers and built by the Safeway Company. The Safeway market chain was established in 1914 in Southern California and quickly grew as a major supermarket chain throughout the state of California, eventually becoming the world’s largest chain of retail food stores. In 1967, the company opened a location at the subject site using one of their standardized prototypical designs, known as the “Marina Plan.” The “Marina Plan” was roughly a design scheme that consisted of a main central arch, high beamed ceiling, and a glass façade. This style was typical of their supermarket stores throughout California and the United States. The subject building was converted to a “Pic N Save” store sometime in the 1980s and later “Big Lots.” The subject building is currently vacant.
CRITERIA
The criterion is the Cultural Heritage Ordinance which defines a historical or cultural monument as any site (including significant trees or other plant life located thereon) building or structure of particular historic or cultural significance to the City of Los Angeles, such as historic structures or sites in which the broad cultural, economic, or social history of the nation, State or community is reflected or exemplified, or which are identified with historic personages or with important events in the main currents of national, State or local history or which embody the distinguishing characteristics of an architectural type specimen, inherently valuable for a study of a period style or method of construction, or a notable work of a master builder, designer or architect whose individual genius influenced his age.
FINDINGS
The written nomination argues that the property meets two of the specified Historic-Cultural Monument criteria: 1) “embodies the distinguishing characteristics of an architectural type specimen, inherently valuable for a study of a period style or method of construction,” and 2) reflects “the broad cultural, economic, or social history of the nation, State or community.”
Analysis of the subject property by staff has determined that the subject building’s design does not represent an example of Late Modern-style architecture that meets criteria for designation as a Historic-Cultural Monument. Although the subject building exhibits character-defining features of Late Modern-style commercial architecture typical of the 1960s-70s such as stone 5610 York Boulevard CHC-2009-404-HCM Page 3 of 3
covered wall surfaces, large glass windows, and a distinctive roof form, this building does not constitute a particularly outstanding or distinctive example of this style. Although having a distinctive roof form, the subject building’s design as a whole does not appear to be a highly significant example of Late Modern design.
The nomination argues that the subject building’s association with the “Marina Style,” a standardized design for supermarkets used by the Safeway Company, renders it eligible for designation. Although this design is clearly associated with the development of the company, this prototype design appears to have only been a loose set of design features. The subject building appears to have only been a modestly representative example, incorporating some design elements of the “Marina Style.” Other examples of this style presented in the application material do appear to more successfully embody this design standard.
The nomination also argues that the subject building is eligible for local designation based on its association with the Safeway Company. As the company constructed hundreds of supermarket locations throughout the United States, the subject building does not appear to have any particular distinction from the other Safeway supermarkets. Although the company was founded in Los Angeles in 1914, the subject building and its location do not have any specific links with the original establishment of the company.
Because of legally permitted demolition and renovation work performed on the building prior to the consideration hearing with the Cultural Heritage Commission, the subject building exhibits severe integrity issues relative to its original architectural design and extant fabric. While the Cultural Heritage Ordinance does not have a specific test of “integrity,” a potential resource evaluated against the ordinance’s architectural criterion should retain the character-defining features that enable it to embody a particular architectural style.
Although the subject building retains its essential form owing to its intact roof, the extent of renovations and removal of original building fabric have ultimately compromised its original design. Should the subject building have maintained a high degree of intact architectural integrity, the Late Modern architectural design itself would not have rendered it eligible for local designation.
Based on the specified criteria, the subject property does not meet criteria for designation as a Historic-Cultural Monument.
BACKGROUND
At its meeting of February 19, 2009, the Cultural Heritage Commission voted to take the application under consideration. On March 5, 2009, the Cultural Heritage Commission toured the subject property.

Historical Significance
The _ Highland Park Safeway Store _ was built in _ 1967 _ _ Name of proposed monument year built
Safeway Markets and Late Modern Architecture was important to the Name of first or other significant owner development of Los Angeles because The Safeway firm, along with Ralphs Markets, were founded in Los _
Angeles and were the first here to make the leap from smaller more localized stores to the modern supermarket_ as a place to shop for virtually all of the daily household needs. Safeway was founded in Southern California _ in 1914 and soon began expanding with store throughout the region. The chain purchased Skaggs in Northern _
California in 1926, giving them a state-wide presence. In the early 1930s, the firm began to build larger stores, _
Enabling them to close smaller local stores and consolidate with the larger stores. After World War II, there_
Were several local firms, as well as several National firms, that had a major presence in the booming Southern _
California Market. Most store buildings were custom designed before this period. 1930s Safeways included a _
1936 Moderne structure on Figueroa in Highland Park (now a Pep Boys) and the 1939 Art Deco building that _ later housed the Black Cat (HCM 939). Safeway built a new store at the York Boulevard location in 1955, which _ was heralded in the Los Angeles Times as one of the first to utilize the recently invented electric doors, which _ are now standard on all large supermarkets and many large retail establishments. Shortly after that, the chain_ opted to come up with a standard design to advertise that the market was in fact a Safeway. The chain chose an _ iconic Late Modern arched roof design that portrayed the concept that Safeway was the most forward thinking _ market chain in the United States. By this time Safeway was on its way to becoming the largest market chain in the_
United States and Canada. The new stores soon began to promote this presence. The design was an updated and _
More open version of a design that had been pioneered by the firm of Penn Fruit a short time earlier. However the
Safeway version was much more iconic with its liberal use of glass and modern fluorescent lighting which was _
historic-cultural monument application c i t y o f l o s a n g e l e s Significance Work Sheet Continued used as an architectural statement as a part of the design. The large glass façade brings the light _
From the outside into the store but also allows the inside light out to make the building a welcome _ beacon at night as well as a cheerful location during the day. The design was named the “Marina” type, as a reference to the first store of that design which opened in the Marina District of San Francisco _ in 1959. Over years, the basic design remained the same, but was updated with minor variations. The _
Marina stores were constructed in every state and Province where the Safeway chain operated. In _
1967, Safeway demolished its 12 year old store on York Boulevard and replaced it with the newest _
Marina design. However, by the late 1970s, supermarket design was becoming more boxy and the chains_
Were starting to explore a new, more boxy style. Safeway abandoned the Marina style, many of which _
Had been designed by Novikoff Engineers and went to a new direction of branding their buildings. The_
Safeway name also left Southern California in the 1990s, after the purchase of Vons Markets. Many_
Of the store were closed, such as the one in Highland Park, and others were converted to Vons or _
Pavilions. Many of the closed stores wee converted to retail, such as the Highland Park store, which
Became a “Pic N Save” and was later converted to a “Big Lots” by the same firm. During this period, the_
Building remarkably retained all of its original design elements. Many of the other stores were re- _ designed to provide for their new uses. A 1961 vintage Marina Store in Studio City is completely un- _ recognizable from the outside, with only the arched roof and beam visible on the interior. The idea _ of recognizable outlets is not new. Security Trust and Savings Bank did it in the 1920s with a series _
Commercial Classical Revival buildings designed by the firm of Parkinson and Parkinson. The Highland_
Park Branch was designated as HCM #575. Safeway made a bold statement by choosing the sculpted _
Lines of the emerging Late Modern Style. Beginning in the late 1950s, Late Modernism broke away _
Traditional concepts of Modernism by creating facades that were almost modern sculptures that _
Used the materials and concepts of Modernism to create a new vision. Today, architects such as _
Frank Gehry Have taken Late Modern concepts a step further by turning the structure into an art _ piece. The style was supplanted by the 1980s by “Post Modernism”, which began to incorporate more _ traditional and Classical architectural elements into new buildings. Yet, buildings such as the Marina
Safeways have Helped to define the coming of age of the Baby-Boomer generation. While we celebrate the many Custom homes of Modernism, we tend to ignore the influence of modern design in the _ commercial buildings that were seen and used every day in our lives. _

The red stylized "S" was still located in the center. x The Yin-Yang - Life logo (January 2005 to the present) — The stylized "S" is still located in the center, but is now white. >HGLW@6ORJDQV x Since We're Neighbors, Let's Be Friends (1972–1979) — Probably the first Safeway advertising campaign to make use of a singalong jingle. This slogan was used by the U.S. stores until July 16, 1979, when the "Everything" slogan was adopted. (lyrics acceptable) x Today at Safeway (used by the Canadian stores during the same period as the American jingle listed above) x Everything You Want from a Store and a Little Bit More (1979–December 1981) — This campaign, launched on July 16, 1979, was adopted, perhaps, to reflect the image of Safeway stores as "one stop shopping centers." This campaign was used through December 1981, although it was in use in the UK into the 1990s. x Today's Safeway: Where You Get a Little Bit More (January 1982–1983) — The first Safeway ad campaign to make use of the company's new "ribbon leaf" logo. x America's Favorite Food Store (1983–1986) x I Work an Honest Day and I Want an Honest Deal (1985–1987) — "America's favorite food store" tagline used with this campaign through 1986 until the buyout and divestitures, which reduced the storecount and made the "America's favorite" line inaccurate. Also featured a song. [verification needed] x Nobody Does It Better (1988– late 1990s ) — This campaign is unique for being adapted from a pop song. In this case, the song was originally a hit for Carly Simon in 1977. Simon originally sang it as the theme song to 1977's James Bond movie, The Spy Who Loved Me. x We Bring It All Together (late 1980s–early 1990s) Main slogan for Safeway locations in Canada. [verification needed] x Giving Our Best (2001 –2005) x Vons is Value (mid-to-late 1990s) — Used only for Vons stores in Southern California. This was the first Vons ad campaign since Safeway took over ownership of the chain. x Delivering Our Best (late 1990s–2005) Used only for Vons stores in Southern California, as a regional variant of the Safeway slogan. x Today's Better Way (1990s) Main slogan for Safeway locations in Canada before Giving Our Best was used in the early 2000s. x Ingredients for life (2005–present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a b 1. ^ Safeway Factbook 2008 2. ^ 2007 Top 75 North American Food Retailers, Supermarket News, Last accessed May 8, 2008. 3. ^ Top 100 Retailers: The Nation's Retail Power Players (PDF), Stores, July 2006. 4. ^ Site is now the location of the Los Angeles Convention Center http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Pico+and+Figueroa,+L os+Angeles 5. ^ Los Angeles Times, Jan 26 1922 a b 6. ^ Safeway Annual Report 1966 7. ^ Seelig's Chain is now Safeway, Los Angeles Times, Mar 15, 1925, pB8 8. ^ Safeway stock out tomorrow, Los Angeles Times, Nov 14, 1926, p17 9. ^ Safeway Annual Report 1926, p2 10. ^ Safeway Annual Report 1961 11. ^ Safeway Annual Report 1966, p10 12. ^ "Sears may have eye on Safeway".
