This memo includes detailed information on the age-eligible architectural resources both within the Project Study Area and the five Project Variant Study Areas. Combined they represent all the age-eligible architectural resources that could be potentially impacted by implementation of the Project and any selected variants. Historic Resources in the Project Study Area The Project Study Area contains numerous identified, and several previously unidentified, historic architectural resources. For resources that were previously identified, ESA used prior assessments combined with field verification to identify potential impacts that may result from the proposed Project (see References below). These findings are summarized and presented in Chapter 4.4 to the extent needed to support the impact analysis. Resources within the Project Study Area include: • Southern Pacific Railroad Industrial Landscape District API1 – 93 Linden Street (Standard Underground Cable Company) – 110 Linden Street (CalPak / Del Monte Cannery) – 101 Myrtle Street (CalPak Label Plant) – 737 2nd Street (Phoenix Lofts) • PG&E Station C API – 601 Embarcadero West – 101 Jefferson Street • USS Potomac National Historic Landmark 1 An Area of Primary Importance (API) is a zoning designation used by the City of Oakland.

  • Record Search Results for the Proposed 669 – 679 S Cloverdale Blvd Project
    August 15, 2019 NWIC File No.: 19-0104 Rafael Miranda City of Cloverdale 124 N Cloverdale Blvd Cloverdale, CA 95425 Re: Record search results for the proposed 669 – 679 S Cloverdale Blvd project. Dear Rafael Miranda: Per your request received by our office on 7/16/19, a records search was conducted for the above referenced project by reviewing pertinent Northwest Information Center (NWIC) base maps that reference cultural resources records and reports, historic-period maps, and literature for Sonoma County. Please note that use of the term cultural resources includes both archaeological resources and historical buildings and/or structures. Review of this information indicates that there has been one architectural study with approximate coverage of 100% of the 669 – 679 S Cloverdale Blvd project area (S-12763, Bloomfield 1990); this report did not include archaeological field survey of any portion of the proposed project area. The project area contains no recorded archaeological resources. The State Office of Historic Preservation Historic Property Directory (OHP HPD) (which includes listings of the California Register of Historical Resources, California State Historical Landmarks, California State Points of Historical Interest, and the National Register of Historic Places) lists no recorded buildings or structures within or adjacent to the proposed project area. In addition to these inventories, the NWIC base maps show no recorded buildings or structures within the proposed project area. At the time of Euroamerican contact the Native Americans that lived in the area were speakers of the Southern Pomo language, part of the Pomoan language family (McLendon and Oswalt 1978: 278). There are no Native American resources in or adjacent to the proposed project area referenced in the ethnographic literature [Barrett 1908; Kroeber 1925; Stewart 1935; McLendon and Oswalt 1978].

In addition to the recommendations made in the Executive Summary, I have the following recommendations for altering the District boundary. The properties along Salmon Creek Road, northwest of the District, are geographically separate from the heart of the District. At this point in time they display very little integrity and/or they are too new to be consistent with the Areas of Significance and Period of Significance for the District. Several are manufactured homes. I recommend that they be removed from the District, as seen on the attached map. These properties are summarized below.

  • Freestone Historic District Survey and Design Guidelines Update Includes the Following Components
    Revised by Painter Preservation & Planning March 2012 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The County of Sonoma commissioned Garcia and Associates (GANDA) to prepare a Survey and Design Guidelines Update for the Freestone Historic District to inventory and update the documentation for this historic district, which was designated by the Sonoma County Landmarks Commission (Landmarks Commission) in 1974. An update of these guidelines, which primarily involved adding a section on design guidelines for energy efficiency in historic buildings and properties, was completed by Painter Preservation & Planning in March 2012. The Freestone Historic District Survey and Design Guidelines Update includes the following components: • An historic context statement for the district; • State of California Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) Primary Record (523A) forms for all buildings over 45 years of age in the district; • DPR Building, Structure, and Object (523B) forms for all individually listed landmark buildings within the district; • DPR District (523D) forms for the district; • A list of contributing and non-contributing buildings within the district; and • Clear, illustrated design guidelines based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties. A summary of the Freestone Historic District’s location, boundary, significance, and character- defining features is listed below. DPR 523 forms in Appendix C contain a complete description and evaluation of the historic district. OVERVIEW The Freestone Historic District is a geographically contiguous district consisting of approximately 33 buildings primarily located on one core street (Bohemian Highway) within the town of Freestone, Sonoma County, California.

Rain seems to be back in our lives and we are hopeful the Tcreeks will be filling up soon. I love the sound of Fife Creek flowing outside our -of fice. Our Annual Meeting in October was a special occasion of sharing stories and memo- ries from the past 30 years. I enjoyed reflecting on my time with Stewards and on all the exceptional people who have helped us accomplish great things throughout the years. In 2015, we offered new overnight camping programs for youth and families. We took the Steward Ship to schools, to events and for coastal visits. We’ve worked with the Pond Farm Partnership to begin stabilization of the historic structures and made plans for exciting new programs, exhibits and events. With the help of a successful capital campaign, we put a new roof on the Jenner Visitor Center. Over 110,000 park visitors were inspired when they came in contact with our docents and volunteers. Your generosity and support have made these and other achievements possible and we thank you so very much! We hope 2016 brings a lessening of our serious drought conditions with winter rains that provide the needed breaks in between to prevent flooding. Our work, on the other hand, won’t lessen in the least as we move forward in the coming year with exciting new projects to further our mission in State Parks.

  • Historical Resources
    II. HISTORICAL RESOURCES Introduction It is a goal of the Coastal Plan to protect Sonoma County's historic resources as a reminder of past eras. The coastal area has a rich and varied history. Many of the activities of the 1700's and 1800's remain important today: fishing, farming and timber harvesting. Lessons of the past are echoed in several sections of the Coastal Plan. Biological resources are fragile and must be protected or they may be destroyed, as the Russians destroyed the sea otter population in the 1800's. Timber must be managed on a sustained yield basis or the timber industry will be eliminated, just as many lumber boom towns vanished in the past. Transportation planning can have a profound effect on land use patterns, as the location of the railroad did in the 1870's. This chapter contains a brief history of Sonoma County's coastal area, a description of the County's existing zoning ordinance provisions designed to protect historic resources, an inventory of coastal historic resources, and recommendations to accomplish historic resource protection.
