Since the turn of the 20th Century, this street has attracted numerous prominent southern Californians. This street is named after Robert Gillis’ daughter, Adelaide. Robert Gillis was the owner of the Santa Monica Land and Water Co. and bought thousands of acres in the Palisades in the 1880s. In 1923, Gillis sold 22,000 acres to Alphonso Bell, who developed Bel Air, and went on to develop the Pacific Palisades. 6. Worrell “Zuni House,” 1923-24 710 Adelaide Pl. Architect Robert Stacey-Judd is best known for his Mayan-themed architecture, as is evident in the Pueblo Revival style home, the only known example of his work in Santa Monica. The design of the house embodies many of the character-defining features of the Pueblo Revival style, including an asymmetrical facade, block composition, and flat roofs with parapets highlighted by red tile coping. Noteworthy are projecting roof beams (a.k.a. vigas) typical of the Zuni tribe of Arizona Indians. The rounded corners of the terraced walls, simulate adobe. A stepped Mayan motif is repeated in the door and window frames. It’s said that the work of this architect "is always a surprise.” 7.

Santa Monica, CA 90401 (310) 458-2213 Email: [email protected] Website: www.smepd.org 1. garden\garden Project Description Background In 2003 the City of Santa Monica examined its outreach efforts toward the encourage- ment of landscaping which features climate-appropriate, water-efficient plant materi- als. It was found that, although the City had a very popular demonstration garden prominently located at City Hall, very few City property owners were actually installing such landscapes on there own property. After some research it was concluded that were two main obstacles: !" The inability of residential property owners to see the demonstration garden at a large, public building as representing something that could be done on their prop- erty. !" The inertia within the landscaping community to continue recommending and planting the plants that they were already familiar with rather than the native plants which had become, for practical purposes, “exotic” in their natural territory. The Idea To overcome these obstacles the City conceived the idea of a comparison garden composed of two adjacent, residential front yards typical of the City’s primarily resi- dential character. One front yard would feature California-native plants, a water-efficient drip irrigation system, a weather-sensitive irrigation controller, permeable paving, mulch and a sys- tem for capturing storm water runoff for groundwater recharge.
