The primary fa~ade on the building faces east, to maximize the views of San Diego Bay, the City of San Diego, and Coronado. Situated in the area of La Playa in Point Loma, the home was constructed on a steeply pitched lot that required engineering and retaining walls to make the property viable. The home was designed by noted architect, William R. Stephenson for Nate and Beverly Rosenburg. Nate was a well-known businessman, with offices in the Cosgrove Building (no longer extant) at 4th and Broadway in downtown San Diego. The home is representative of a subsequent wave of development in Point Loma-beginning in the mid-century, when formerly vacant lots were engineered to allow them to be improved. Modern technology and design not previously available, saw these lots developed alongside their 1920s neighbors. As such, the building is significant under Criterion A: Community Development. No significant individual or event is associated with the building as required under Criterion B: Persons or Events. The building was designed by well-known Modernist Architect William Stephenson and remains a fine example of Modern/Contemporary home design, qualifying under Criterion C: Architecture. No other Criteria apply to this property.

P3a. Building Description

742 Armada Terrace, San Diego. CA

Described as a "Mid-Century Masterpiece," the Rosenberg Residence is an irregular shaped, single-story, Modern Contemporary. The 3,365 square foot building is situated on a steeply sloping view lot-0.38 acres-in the La Playa area of Point Loma, San Diego. The view from the property includes the entire San Diego Bay area and is one of the primary attributes of the property. The home was designed to capture the expansive and dramatic views of San Diego Bay, and therefore, the front entrance is recessed and understated (Photos 1-2). The primary fa~ade must be considered the east-facing portion of the home, as the rest of the house was built around it. As soon as one enters the home via the west entrance, the eye is drawn to this spectacular view (Photos #3-4).

The residential building has a concrete foundation and wood framed walls sheathed in stucco. Brick and wood siding provide some decorative elements on the outside of the home. The roof is flat with wide boxed eaves and recessed lighting.

West Elevation

Entrance to the home is via the west-facing doorway. An oversized front door is situated in fenestration that includes frosted glass sidelights with similar transom. The door is topped by a wood transom. The entrance is supported by wood beams and flanked by painted brick walls. The landing is polished terrazzo (Photo #2). Two ornate lanterns light the opening, and a single elaborate brass doorknob affords entry (Photo #5).

To the north of the entrance is a small, open-air terrarium style structure which serves several purposes. Enclosed by a brise soleil, the two windows within this enclosed area are shaded by the exterior plants providing privacy, while the brise sole ii further reduces heat gain by deflecting the sunlight (Photos #6- 7). A narrow, floor-to-ceiling window is located north (Photo #8). Interior shutters deflect the sun here, too (Photo #9).

The two-car garage is attached to the residence on the south side of the west elevation. A large lift-up wood door offers access to the garage (Photo #10). The home's south fa~ade is just around the corner from the garage.

South Elevation

At the south, or side elevation a half-wall of concrete block semi-encloses trash and recycle bins. Support beams atop the wall support exposed roof beams. The corrugated roofing material appears to be a later addition (Photo #11). A jalousie window looks out on this service area. At the end of the corridor, a half-door set into the block wall leads to another door and three tall narrow windows (Photos State of California - The Resource Agency DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION CONTINUATION SHEET Primary# ______HRI#-______Trinomial, ______Page 4 of 18 *Resource Name or# (Assigned by recorder) 742 Armada Terrace. San Diego, 92106 • Recorded by Dolores Mellon/ Office of Marie Burke Lia Date 08/2018 Continuation X Update

#12-13). Paired louvre doors protect what appears to be a mechanical room. Concrete pavers and dense vegetation are situated here, and lead to the east fa~ade (Photo #14).

East Elevation

The narrow, semi-enclosed south elevation provides a dramatic portal to east fa~ade (See Photos #14- 15). The view east from the home is breathtaking, and overlooks Shelter Island, the San Diego Yacht Club, Coronado's North Island, the bridge and the spectacular San Diego skyline (Photos #16-18). In designing the residence, the architect built the home around this view. This facade contains large, dramatic, fixed pane metal window systems that dominate the rear elevation, along with floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors (Photos #19-20). At the southeast portion of the home is situated a room with a large glass door, in addition to a fixed pane window with jalousie sidelights. A third jalousie window is located just around the corner (Photo #21-22). Providing shade for this area is a second brise sole ii, supported by beams. Larger beams surround the pool area, furnishing additional support for the widely overhanging roofline (Photo #23). The stucco fa~ade is punctuated by massive, wrought-iron lanterns, and angles away from the pool, with additional glass and thus more natural lighting to the home (See Photos #21 & 23-24). In approximately the center of the fa~ade, the brick clad wall separates the fenestration.

At the northern-most corner of the east fa~ade, the master bedroom has a sliding glass door, and two fixed pane metal windows that measure from the floor up 2/3's of the wall. They are topped by transom windows reaching to the roofline (See Photos #19 & 23).

North Elevation

Dense vegetation, an 8' block wall, and another brise soleil ensure the privacy of the master bedroom's north fa~ade. The bath looks out on a second, open-air terrarium-style structure containing mature plants (Photo #25). Few windows are located along the driveway (Photos #26-28).

Landscaping

742 Armada Terrace is heavily landscaped. Retaining walls and plantings mitigate the severe angle of repose. A combination of blacktop and concrete aggregate serve as the drive and parking area for the home. A set of concrete stairs lead from the parking area up to the top of this lot. Their original purpose is unknown (Photos #26-27). Succulents, palms and other plantings surround the home. The east area lawn is a combination of tufted grass and concrete aggregate walkways. The aggregate surrounds the pool that measures 16' by 36' (See Photos #15, 22-23).

According to Modernist Architecture in San Diego, California, "plants and planting areas are chosen for their orientation, water requirements, size and function, and how they complement the overall State of California -The Resource Agency DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION CONTINUATION SHEET Primary# ______HRI# ______Trinomial. ______Page 5 of 18 *Resource Name or# (Assigned by recorder) 742 Armada Terrace.

development and the human experience of the total." 1 This is the case at 742 Armada Terrace, as the plantings and hardscape do complement the home's modern design.

B6. Alterations

The only alteration to the home appears to be the corrugated plastic roof above the trash can enclosure, adjacent to the garage.

Property History

History of Point Loma

The community of Point Loma is one of the oldest in San Diego. This district has been defined as the area between Fort Rosecrans to the south, Nimitz Boulevard to the north, Catalina Boulevard or Sunset Cliffs to the west, and the San Diego Harbor to the east. The recorded history of Point Loma dates to Juan Rodriquez Cabrillo's landing at Ballast Point on September 28, 1542. An early description of Point Loma states that it was a "ridge 400 feet high and 5 miles long ... bare of trees, sparsely covered with grass, sagebrush and cactus." Point Loma was originally called "La Punta de California" (the Point of California). In 1769, the name was changed to "La Loma de San Diego" (the Hill of San Diego). Ultimately, this unwieldy name would change once more to Point Loma (Hill Point).

Point Loma is comprised of many neighborhoods, the oldest of which is La Playa (the Beach) that is located on the eastern shore of the peninsula just north of Ballast Point. This area was once the center for the whaling industry, including the hide and tallow trade, as well as the stopping place for ships during the California Gold Rush. Point Loma was first mapped in 1846. Settlers to the area would soon follow. In 1876, the first Portuguese fishermen arrived to fish off the coast of Point Loma. Once there, they found a community of Chinese fishermen already established. Abalone was so plentiful that the Chinese had been using it for bait off the Point Loma shores since the 1860s. Tuna fishing and canning became a prominent part of San Diego's economy in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The first fish packing concern-the San Diego Packing Company-was built in 1914in Point Loma.

In 1855, a lighthouse was constructed on Point Loma for assistance with the city'sshipping activities. In 1891 a modern one replaced the original and it still stands now. The lighthouse has been incorporated into the Cabrillo National Monument, which was created in 1913.

By the turn of the twentieth-century, much of the Point Loma peninsula was under the control of two very different institutions. In 1897, Madame Katherine Tingley established the

Theosophical Society of Universal Brotherhood on the site now occupied by the Point Loma Nazarene University. The organization operated until 1942 and drew followers from all over the world. The school was supposed to be a "temple of living light, lighting up the dark places of the earth." The centerpiece of the school was its boarding-school system for children and adults. The primary activities of the organization were heavily oriented toward the arts and cultural programs.

In the 1890s, the United States Army moved into Point Loma and occupied Fort Rosecrans. The Army began with the installation of some defensive batteries, and the government built a quarantine station and coaling station at Ballast Point. By 1898, troops were stationed there on a regular basis. The Army controlled the defense point until 1959when the various military properties were transferred to the U.S. Navy. Fort Rosecrans serves as a major part of the port defense system for the city of San Diego.

Over the twentieth century, the Point Loma area has slowly grown from largely empty land with some military and cultural institutions located upon it, to an upscale residential section of the city. Large homes with ocean views, scenic wooded areas on the top of the hill, and a long stretch of beach offer a beautiful residential setting with a view of the city and the bay. The area has been in-filled with a mixture of early twentieth century homes-many of which are restored, small shops, and large, interesting, architect-designed houses that take advantage of the hillside or beach lots and the stunning views available to home builders.

William R. Stephenson. Architect

"Architect to the Stars," William R. Stephenson was born in Portsmouth, VA on August 30, 1912. Raised in Norfolk, Va., Stephenson graduated in 1934 from the University of Virginia with a degree in architecture. According to his obituary, Stephenson "parlayed his dancing ability into teaching jobs in Hawaii and Los Angeles at the Ambassador Hotel and the Beverly Hills Hotel in the late 1930s and early 1940s." 3 It was during this stint as a dancing instructor that Stephenson met Patricia Ziegfeld, daughter of Broadway impresario Florenz Ziegfeld and actress Billie Burke. The couple married in 1939.

During World War II, Stephenson worked at Douglas Aircraft as a structural engineer, earning his license to practice architecture in 1946. According to his obituary, Stephenson "worked for architects Frank Lloyd Wright and Burton Schutt until the early 1950s, when he went into practice on his own." 4

In the 1950s he was designing mid-century modern homes for Hollywood's elite. His Modern designs banks of floor-to-ceiling windows, vaulted ceilings, angular massing, single-story open floor plan, built ins, an indoor/outdoor living focus, and emphasis on privacy in the plan of the homes, endeared Stephenson to clients that included actress Laraine Day, director King Vidor, and dancer Cyd Charisse, among others. Perhaps the architect's most well-known work was for (future President) Ronald Reagan and his wife, Nancy, designing an all-electric home for the couple in the Pacific Palisades. 5 The mid century house was a "General Electric Showcase House," meaning it was filled with many energy-saving

devices, including "gadgets for controlling temperature, light, etc., that were, at the time, considered state-of-the-art." 6 According to the information on the home, it boasts quintessential modern characteristics such as "vaulted ceilings, rows of floor-to-ceiling glass, and numerous built-ins. Of its amenities, a den with a wet bar stands out in the interior, while the exterior features a patio and pool area that enjoys sweeping views extending from the Getty Center to the ocean." 7

Stephenson went on to design numerous Beverly Hills homes, including those in the Trousdale Estates, a celebrated enclave of "mid-century architectural gems and celebrity residents." 8 Stephenson is recognized by the City of Beverly Hills in that city's list of loco/ Moster Architects. According to the City's Municipal Code, "a Master Architect is an architect of recognized greatness in the field of architecture whose individual genius influenced his or her age." In addition, the architect designed at least two homes in San Diego's Point Loma neighborhood. One is the Anne and Abraham Ratner property at 541 Silvergate Avenue, and the other known property is the Beverly and Nate Rosenberg home at 742 Armada Terrace. Both homes, in keeping with the architect's deliberate design, cannot be viewed from the public right-of-way. 9

Like many of the architect's projects, the Rosenberg home features 12-foot ceilings in the Jiving area, with window walls in most rooms. Given Stephenson's client list, it is no surprise that privacy was an utmost consideration in his designs. Most of his homes have recessed entrances, hidden from the street. Many cannot be seen from the street, at all, as a view is cleverly blocked by walls, and landscaping. Like the Rosenberg residence, many properties boast spectacular views, which the architect designed the homes around. Also like the Rosenberg residence, the entrances to these homes are subordinate to the views that many of these homes enjoy. Stephenson was a master at maximizing the viewshed in his designs. Stephenson's mastery is evident at 742 Armada Terrace.

William Stephenson retired in 1997 and died in 2007.

B10. Significance Determinations

Historic Context

According to the Guidelines for the Application of Historical Resources Board Designation Criteria, the significance of a historic property can be judged and explained only when it is evaluated in its historic context. Historic contexts are those patterns or trends in history by which a specific occurrence, property or site is understood and its meaning (and ultimately its significance) within history is made clear. In order to decide whether a property is significant within its historic context, the following things must be determined. 10

1. Identify the themes, geographical limits and chronological period that the property represents:

The subject property was constructed as a Modern Contemporary, single-family residence. Work on the property began in 1959, in the residential area of Point Loma in the City of San Diego. The area in and around the subject property, addressed as 742 Armada Terrace in Point Loma, is primarily a single-family residential neighborhood.

The subject building is part of the pattern of residential development of the Point Loma area in the 1950s and 1960s. The theme of the property is Modern Contemporary style single-family residential construction during the development of Point Loma in the mid-century.

2. Determine how the theme of the context is significant in the history of the local area:

The residential neighborhood in Point Loma began its earliest development commencing in the twentieth century. Point Loma was developed in three phases beginning in the 1920s, with additional

10 Guidelines for the Application of Historical Resources Board Designation Criteria, page 2. State of California -The Resource Agency DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION CONTINUATION SHEET Primary# ______HRI# ______Trinomial, ______Page 11 of 18 *Resource Name or# (Assigned by recorder) 742 Armada Terrace. San Diego. 92106 • Recorded by Dolores Mellon / Office of Marie Burke Lia Date 08/2018 Continuation X Update

development during the years of World War II and then a final phase in the post-war period. The subject property was developed as part of the overall residential growth and expansion in the Point Loma area of San Diego in the mid-twentieth century.

3. Determine what the property type is and whether it is important in illustrating the historic context:

The property type is a single-family residential property and it is part of the overall process of residential expansion in Point Loma during the mid-century. The subject residence is important in illustrating the historic context of the 1950s and 1960s upscale development of the Point Loma area. During this time, as well as in subsequent decades, most of the new residences built in Point Loma, particularly on the higher elevations included upscale, large homes designed by prominent architects using Modern architectural style variants. The subject property is one of many architect-designed, single-family homes that were built as part of the development of Point Loma during this period. The building is an excellent, unaltered example of 1960s Modern Contemporary style residential architecture in the Point Loma area, and exemplifies designs in Point Loma that showcase the area's extraordinary views.

4. Determine how the property represents the context through HRB Criteria:

The property does exemplify or reflect special elements of the architectural development of the City's and Point Loma community's development under Criterion A: Community Development as it is an excellent, unaltered example of an architect-designed, Modern, single-family residence constructed as part of the overall development of Point Loma in the mid-century. The subject property is not significant under Criterion B: Person or Event as no persons or events of importance were connected to the subject property. The 1960s residence does retain the main characteristics of a style, type, period or method of the Modern Contemporary architectural style under Criterion C: Architecture and it is a fine unaltered example of the style. Architect William Stephenson was responsible for the design of the building. Stephenson was a renowned Modernist, whose work has been recognized by the City of Beverly Hills on their List of Master Architects. Although only two examples of his work have been identified in San Diego-742 Armada Terrace and 541 Silvergate Avenue-the Silvergate property is listed on the Local Register. When compared to Stephenson's other Modernist designs, the Rosenberg Residence epitomizes the architect's refined mastery in the style, including privacy, mature landscaping, pool, vaulted ceilings, banks of glass maximizing the breathtaking views and built-ins. Stephenson has not yet been determined to be a Master Architect in the City of San Diego, therefore the property does not qualify under Criterion D: Master Architect. Criteria E and Fare not applicable to the property as it is not a source of further information, nor is it part of a historic district. Consequently, the property does represent its historic context under Criterion A, and Criterion C of the established criteria of the San Diego Historic Resources Board Designation Criteria.

What physical features the property must possess in order for it to reflect the significance of the historic context: State of California - The Resource Agency DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION CONTINUATION SHEET Primary# ______HRI# ______Trinomial ______Page 12 of 18 *Resource Name or# (Assigned by recorder) 742 Armada Terrace, San Diego, 92106 *Recorded by Dolores Mellon/ Office of Marie Burke Lia Date 08/2018 Continuation X Update

The subject building already reflects the residential architectural development of Point Loma in the mid century. The subject property is a fine, unaltered example of single-family, Modern Contemporary architectural style home. The building's design retains the main character defining features of the style and is an excellent example of Modern Contemporary, and the architectural career of Modernist William Stephenson.

Guidelines for the Application of Historical Resources Board Designation Criteria

According to the City of San Diego Land Development Manual, Historical Resources Guidelines, Appendix E, Part 2, any improvement, building, structure, sign, interior element and fixture, site, place, district, area or object may be designated as a historic resource by the City of San Diego Historical Resources Board if it meets one or more of the following criteria.

Criterion A: Community Development: If it exemplifies or reflects special elements of a City's, a community's or a neighborhood's historical, archaeological, cultural, sacial, economic, political, aesthetic, engineering, landscaping or architectural development. Special elements of development refer ta a resource that is distinct amang others af its kind ar that surpass the usual in significance. 11

Pursuant to these Guidelines, "special elements of development refer to a resource that is distinct among others of its kind or that surpass the usual in significance."

Historic evidence was identified that would support the determination that the single-family residence located at 742 Armada Terrace in Point Loma reflects special elements of San Diego's or Point Lorna's historical, archaeological, cultural, social, economic, political, aesthetic, engineering, landscape or architectural development. Residential development first began in Point Loma in the 1920s, on developable parcels. It was not until after World War II, however, that engineering in soil compaction had advanced to the point that extremely steep lots like the Rosenberg's could be viable, prompting another wave of development in Point Loma. 12 Additionally, the subject property is an outstanding example of the upscale architectural development of Point Loma in the mid-century. The building was architect-designed by William R. Stephenson in the Modern Contemporary architectural style and therefore, reflects the architectural trends and developments of the 1950s and 1960s, and the construction of exclusive, architect-designed homes on Point Loma during this period.

Criterion 8: Persons or Events: Is identified with persons ar events significant in lacal, state, or national history. 13

In order for a property to qualify for designation under Criterion B for identification with a person significant in local, state or national history, the person must have made demonstrable achievements

11 Guidelines for the Application of Historical Resources Board Designation Criteria, page 7. 12 While soil compaction tests, like Proctor's, pre-date WWII, larger and heavier soil compaction equipment was utilized in the 1940s and beyond. Such machinery like vibrating compactors and heavier "rollers" could produce higher dry densities in soils, along with greater stability. 13 Guidelines for the Application of Historical Resources Board Designation Criteria, page 15.

and contributions to the history of San Diego, the state or the nation. No such person has been identified with this property. In order for a property to qualify for designation under Criterion B for identification with an event significant in local, state or national history, the event must be significant in the history of San Diego, the state or the nation. No such event has been identified with this property.

Criterion C: Architecture: Embodies distinctive characteristics af a style, type, period or method af construction or is a valuable example of the use af indigenous materials ar craftsmanship. 14

In its current condition, the 1960s single-family residence located at 742 Armada Terrace in the Point Loma area of San Diego is a distinctive example of the Modern Contemporary style of architecture and was evaluated accordingly.

"Stvle" means the composition, massing, scale, materials and details exhibit the essential physical features of a recognized architectural style. 15

Modern Contemporary Architectural Style

Designed in 1960 for Nate and Beverly Rosenberg, the original home was conceived by architect William A. Stephenson. In its current condition, the residence is an excellent, representative example of Modern Contemporary style. In this regard, the unaltered building embodies the distinctive characteristics of a style, type, period, and method of Modern Contemporary construction.

Construction of new buildings slowed down considerably during the Second World War years, 1941- 1945, and then resumed in the postwar years. The designs of the postwar years borrowed heavily from techniques and building materials utilized during the war by the military and many of these design concepts moved into the mainstream market. The pre-war dependence upon historical styles waned and designers and architects eagerly explored more modernistic concepts, borrowing from the International, the Contemporary, the Split Level, and the Ranch styles as well as others.

The Modern Contemporary architectural style occurred from approximately 1940-1980. More specifically, this style was the favorite for architect-designed houses built from approximately 1955- 1965 in San Diego. It occurs in two distinctive subtypes based on roof shapes: flat or gabled. The flat roofed subtype is a derivation of the earlier International style (of which the Rosenberg Residence borrows some elements), and houses of this subtype are sometimes referred to as American International. These homes resemble the International in having flat roofs and no decorative detailing but lack the stark white wall surfaces. The gabled subtype is more strongly influenced by the earlier modernism of the Craftsman and Prairie styles (unlike the flat-roofed subtype that is a derivation of the International style). The gabled subtype features broad, low, front-facing gables with overhanging eaves,

14 Guidelines for the Application of Historical Resources Board Designation Criteria, page 20. 15 Guidelines for the Application of Historical Resources Board Designation Criteria, page 21. State of California -The Resource Agency DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION CONTINUATION SHEET Primary# ______HRI# ______Trinomial ______Page 14 of 18 *Resource Name or# (Assigned by recorder) 742 Armada Terrace. San Diego, 92106 *Recorded by Dolores Mellon/ Office of Marie Burke Lia Date 08/2018 Continuation X Update

frequently with exposed roof beams. Heavy piers may support gables. As in the flat-roof subtypes, various combinations of wood, brick, and stone wall cladding are used, and traditional detailing is absent. Both subtypes are most commonly one-story forms although two-story versions are not infrequent. Landscaping and integration into the surrounding environment is stressed, unlike the International designs which were meant to be seen as sculptures set upon the landscape. Unusual window shapes and placements are also typical features. Many Modern Contemporary single-family residences were constructed throughout San Diego after the Second World War. 16

The San Diego Modernism Historic Context Statement addresses the Contemporary Style as occurring in San Diego between 1955 and 1965. "Contemporary tract houses represented a growing sophistication of the residential home buyer and increasing public demand for housing that reflected the latest styles. They employed the latest styles and materials including such modern features as interior courtyards, aluminum framed windows, sliding-glass doors and attached carports or garages." The Primary features of this style present here include strong roof forms, including flat ones, large windows often aluminum framed, and non-traditional exterior finishes including stucco. The Secondary features present include angular massing, sunshades and attached garages.

The Rosenberg Residence, as designed by William Stephenson, features a number of physical characteristics which support a Modern Contemporary classification. It is these characteristics that establish the property as an excellent, representative example of the Modern Contemporary architectural style. Such distinguishing features include, but are not limited to, a single-story, a flat roof with wide, overhanging boxed eaves, shade structures, recessed entrance, banks of large, window walls that open interior rooms to outdoor spaces, vertical wood siding (on garage), brick (located at the west entrance and east facade), and stucco exterior. Secondary characteristics of the style, found on the Rosenberg Residence include sunshades, screens or shadow block accents, angular massing, attached garage and horizontally oriented.

The lack of changes to the home since its original construction is an additional factor in supporting the home as a fine example of Modern Contemporary.

"Type of construction" means the form and materials clearly demonstrate, through the presence of essential physical features, a specific purpose and/or function. 17

The subject property at 742 Armada Terrace is a good example of an upscale, architect-designed, single family residence built in Point Loma in the early-1960s. The overall form and design display the typical elements found in the standard single-family residence. The subject building is a residential building with the typical floor plan and features of family homes. The building does not constitute a "type of construction" as that term is understood for the application of Criterion C, since all single-family homes possess these features.

"Method of Construction" means it is a rare ar an important example of building practices, construction innovations, or technical advances during a specific time in history. 18

According to the Residential Building Record, the building was constructed with standard framing and construction techniques. While no unusual or innovative elements were used in the design, construction, or development of the subject property, given the steep angle of repose, this lot could not have been viably engineered in the first wave of Point Lorna's development in the 1920s. As a standard single-family home in the mid-century, however, this property does not present a rare or an important example of building practices, construction innovations, or technological advances during a specific time in history.

"Period of construction" means the age and physical features reflect the ero when the specific recognized architectural style, building type, or method of construction became popular. 19

The Modern Contemporary style was popular in San Diego for one decade, 1955-1965. The building reflects the main character defining features of the style. The building is an excellent and unaltered example of early-1960s Modern Contemporary style single family residential period of construction.

"Craftsmanship" means the resource exemplifies high craftsmanship and design with handcrafted, unique and rare elements and may or may not be catalogued as belonging to a specific architectural style . .. The resource's design elements and/or features, or association with an individual's design approach or philosophy is unique in nature and does not reflect a specific design or style but is a reflection of a very personal and/or creative effort. 20

The subject residential building is an excellent example of above average craftsmanship and construction techniques. The building's design does contain unique elements, i.e. providing maximum privacy to the home's occupants, terrazzo flooring and a design that includes window walls built around this spectacular view.

"Indigenous Materials" means the resource is a valuable example of the use of indigenous materials and may include the interior. The resource's design elements and/or features, including design context and period of design, or association with an individual's design approach is reflective of indigenous design through the use of local indigenous materials and available craftsmanship. 21

No indigenous materials were used in the design or construction of the subject property.

The subject property is an excellent example of the Modern Contemporary style and meets the criteria for significance under Criterion C: Architecture.

18 Guidelines for the Application of Historical Resources Board Designation Criteria, page 23 19 Guidelines for the Application of Historical Resources Board Designation Criteria, page 23 20 Guidelines for the Application of Historical Resources Board Designation Criteria, page 24. 21 Guidelines for the Application of Historical Resources Board Designation Criteria, page 26.

Criterion D: Master Architect: Is representative of the able work of a master builder, designer, architect, engineer, landscape architect, interior designer, artist, or craftsman;

Although the subject property is representative of William Stephenson's work in the Modern Contemporary architectural style, Stephenson has not been yet determined to be a Master Architect by the City of San Diego. 742 Armada Terrace, therefore, does not qualify under Criterion D: Master Architect.

Conclusion:

The subject single-family example of Modern Contemporary style residence located at 742 Armada Terrace in the Point Loma area of the City of San Diego does meet Criterion A: Community Development, and; Criterion C: Architecture, as an excellent, intact example of an upscale, Modern Contemporary style residence in Point Loma, San Diego. The subject property meets the established criteria for historical and architectural significance. The subject property, therefore, is considered to be a historic resource under Criterion A: Community Development, and under Criterion C: Architecture.

Integrity

In addition to determining the significance of a property under local, state and federal criteria, it is necessary to assess whether the property has integrity. Integrity is the ability of a property to convey and maintain its significance. A property must not only be shown to be significant under the established criteria, it must also have integrity. In order to retain historic integrity, a property must possess several, and usually most, of the seven key aspects of integrity, which are location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling and association.

Application of the City's Guidelines for finding Integrity:

According to the City's Guidelines for the application of the Historical Resources Board Designation Criteria, there are two important principles for understanding Integrity:

1. Integrity is the authenticity of a historical resource's physical integrity clearly indicated by the retention of characteristics that existed during the resource's period of significance.

2. Integrity relates to the presence or absence of historic materials and character defining features.

Historical resources eligible for designation by the HRB must meet one or more of the designation criteria and retain enough of their historic character or appearance to be recognizable as historical resources and to convey the reasons for their significance. 11

Application of the seven aspects of integrity:

22 Guidelines for the Application of Historical Resources Board Designation Criteria, pages 3-4. State of California - The Resource Agency DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION CONTINUATION SHEET Primary# ______HR/# ______Trinomia/ ______Page 17 of 18 *Resource Name or# (Assigned by recorder) 742 Armada Terrace, San Diego, 92106 *Recorded by Dolores Mellon/ Office of Marie Burke Lia Date 08/2018 Continuation X Update

location: locotion is the place where a resource was constructed or where an event occurred.

The 1960 Rosenberg family residence remains at its original 742 Armada Terrace location in the Point Loma area of the City of San Diego. The property retains the location aspect of integrity.

Design: Design results from intentional decisions made during the conception and planning of a resource. Design includes form, plan, space, structure, and style of a property.

The subject property has retained the original, masterful design elements that created the form, plan, shape, space and architectural style. The building retains the design aspect of integrity.

Setting: Setting applies to the physical environment, the charocter of a resource's location, and a resource's relationship to the surrounding oreo.

The setting in and around the property originally consisted of single-family construction. This is apparent from a review of the Sanborn maps. Today, the setting is overwhelmingly residential with a mixture of upscale, Modern genre single-family homes. For integrity purposes, the subject property retains its original setting.

Materials: Materials comprise the physical elements combined or deposited in o particular manner or configurotion to form a property.

The single-family residence located at 742 Armada Terrace has retained its original materials. The only alteration appears to be the installation of a corrugated plastic overhang by the garage, and this is easily removable. The building, therefore, has retained the materials element for integrity purposes.

Workmanship: Workmanship consists of the physical evidence of the crofts employed by o particular culture, people, or artisan, which includes traditional, vernacular and high styles.

The workmanship demonstrated in the construction of the subject property is of above average quality. This level of workmanship appears to have been retained and, therefore, the building retains this aspect of integrity.

Feeling: Feeling relies on present physical features too property to convey and evoke an aesthetic or historic sense of post time and place.

In its current condition, the single-family residence located at 742 Armada Terrace does convey a sense of the time in which it was designed and constructed, in the mid-century. The building has retained this aspect of integrity.

Association: Association is the direct link between on important historic event or person and o historic property.

Historical research did not indicate an important historic connection between important persons or events, and the subject residential property. Consequently, the subject property does not possess an associative element. The building does not maintain this element of integrity.

San Diego. 92106 *Recorded by Dolores Mellon/ Office of Marie Burke Lia Date 08/2018 Continuation X Update

Conclusion: Of the seven aspects of integrity, this residence has retained six of the seven aspects of integrity, including location, design, materials, workmanship, setting and feeling. Therefore, it passes the integrity test.

EYE ON ARCHITECTURE

A Modernist Beverly Hills Enclave Offers a View from Over the Top

Steven M. P1ice tells the tale of Trousdale Estates, a neighborhood of mid-cent my architectural gems and celebrity residents.

by Al'ison Clare Steingvld January 23, 2017 ost histories require a special kind of patience. With his new book, Trousdale Estates: Midcentury_ to Modern in Beverly_ Hills (Regan Arts), author Steven M. Price has diligently strung together the stories of a hillside c01nmunity whose ring-a-ding Los Angeles legacy had quietly faded as a result of ••g aesthetics, demolition and overzealous renovation. It's quite an achievement. House by house, Price has uncovered the stories behind hundreds of iconic buildings by such important architects as Wallace Neff, Paul Williams, Cliff May, Lloyd Wright, Harold Levitt, A. Quincy Jones, Edward Fickett and John Elgin Woolf. In words and pictures, this glossy compendium brings to life a remarkable an-ay of residences - many of them never before published.

In 1954, Paul Whitney Trousdale, the owner of a prolific Los Angeles construction company, negotiated a complex deal to buy a 410-acre ranch from the Doheny family, whose Greystone Mansion sat just adjacent to the property. After acquiring the land, Trousdale set about carefully crafting a colony of exclusive extravagance. He hired a quintet of top modernist architects to design model h01nes that would give potential residents a vision of what could be built on the lots, and he employed clever advertising to solicit a fabulous social set.

The building codes of the time required that all plans for the project be approved by a master architect. Allen Siple was assigned to fill that role and helmed the development's original design review board, which intended to keep the houses at a minimum of 3,000 square feet but no higher than one story. He wanted the estates' impressive city views to remain pristine.

As Trousdale had hoped, the wealthy purchasers of the plots turned to the best architects of the period to create their dream houses. When they were finally completed, these houses e1nbodied the spare-no-expense good life that defined much of Southern California at the time. They also represented a pastiche of architectural styles that included everything from Greco-Roman to ranch to Hawaiian modem. Today, Trousdale Estates' 535 houses on 539 parcels provide the most complete snapshot you'll find of Los Angeles's residential architecture from the 1950s and '60s.

The neighborhood was developed beginning in 1959 by construction tycoon Paul Whitney Trousdale, who bought a 410-acre ranch and set about dividing it into more than 500 plots. Photo by Marc Wanamaker, courtesy the Bison Archives Here, postwar conspicuous consumption emerged in all its Technicolor glory. Motor courts showing off the shiniest of rides? Very Trousdale. Entrances over water features? Very Trousdale. Low-slung, sprawling layouts, imposing double doors with circular knobs leading to courtyards with unobstructed skyline views? Very, very Trousdale. And behind nearly every home, a sparkling blue pool.

When mid-centurY. modernism began to fall out of favor in the 1980s and an even broader mishmash of styles crept into Beverly Hills, focus shifted away from Trousdale and building restrictions loosened. A stunning city view never goes out of style, however, so the lots themselves continued to grow in value, sometimes by huge leaps and bounds. Over the past 30 years, the homes of Trousdale have been variously preserved, modestly altered, renovated beyond recognition and demolished and rebuilt. This book shows them all living side by side.

The development's star residents have included Elvis Presley, Richard Nixon, Dinah Shore, Dean Martin, Groucho Marx, Danny Thomas, Michael Caine, Ray Charles, Swifty Lazar, Freddie and Janet DeCordova, Warren Beatty and both Tina and Frank Sinatra. (Sinatra pere's house, designed by Paul Williams and demolished in 2006, was not technically in Trousdale, one learns from the book, despite usually being located there by the press and even by Williams himself.) More recently, Steven Meisel, Elton John, Jennifer Aniston, Hedi Slimane, KellY. Wearstler and Ellen DeGeneres have called the neighborhood home. Some of them, including Ringo Starr, still live there.

An architectural historian and a member of the board of the Palm Springs Preservation Foundation, Price is eminently qualified to pen the definitive account of the neighborhood. Introspective recently sat down with him at architect Ed Pickett's mid century-meets-tropical-modern Trousdale abode - owned today by entrepreneur Michael Rosen, who has worked to reclaim the home's original character after it took a design detour in the 1990s. Price ebulliently discussed the rise and fal l and rise again of Trousdale Estates.

Do you have a personal connection to Trousdale?

When I was a boy, maybe six or seven years old, l remember we'd drive up here with family friends, and my dad would say, "This is California. This is why I'm never going back to the Bronx." We lived in Tarzana, and Brentwood and Malibu, but my dad thought Trousdale was the apogee.

In the 1980s and '90s, my interest in Trousdale was often met with withering dismissal. That's before I really got to researching the lineage of houses that had previously been found not worthy of any serious study. The last Historic Resources Survey [by L.A. and its Architectural Commission, to identify the city's architectural heritage] of Beverly Hills, prior to the one I worked on as a consultant two years ago, was in 1986. At that time, they said Trousdale Estates was "too new" to be included slash-surveyed and only had twonotable structures [by James Dolena and Casper Ehmcke]. As Trousdale became fashionable again, I thought somebody would write a book. And nobody did. So, in 2008, I said, "You know what? I'll do it."

Is the description in the bool< of Trousdale as "a concentration of A-list residential worl< unmatched anywhere else in the city," an exaggeration?

In 2014, the survey I was involved with identified more than a hundred houses by notable-name architects in just one part of Trousdale, the area known as Section Six. That doesn't even count the ones that had been torn down or whose integrity had been entirely compromised. It's undoubtedly the greatest concentration in Los Angeles of work by A-list architects of the period.

What sources did you use in researching the bool

Talking to people who lived there. Old real estate brochures. Libraries. Vintage issues of Architectural Digest from the 1950s and 1960s were a huge thing, too. Because it The 1973 house Edward Fickell designed for himself exemplifies the transparency for which much of the architecture of the Trousdale Estates came to be known. A pair ofNemo armchairs by Fabio Novembre for Driade sits to the far right. Photo by Dan Chavkin

Were any of the original architects alive to interview? Robert Earl is alive. He designed those swoopy, loopy, columned houses with the round dining rooms. I looked him up in an old Architectural Digest and called him. I thought I was talking to his son. He said, "No, it's me! Back then, I was twenty-three and just starting out." He's the one who said I should talk to Ron Waranch, who started in 1958 as a bookkeeper and left in '72 as the president of the Trousdale Corporation. During the last year of Ron's life, I was able to record it all. The history. The stories. Some of the scandals I can't even tell.

When was Trousdale rediscovered?

Trousdale was underpriced in 2000, even 2003. So passe, people thought. But then Steven Meisel bought [in 2002, after shooting a Versace campaign there in 2000], and other fashionable people started to bring it back. By the time Hedi Slimane moved in, in 2009, that was like the final seal of approval.

What do you think of all the demolition going on there right now?

Normally, when houses are taken down I resent it. Not resent it - lament it. Since the 2015 declawing of the City Council's 2012 preservation ordinance, the odds are now far higher that a significant Trousdale house will be at risk.

Is there a difference between today's spec houses and the 1nodel houses that Trousdale built in 1965?

I think so. Every home here has always been a custom home. The model homes were meant to be jumping-off points, conceptuals to show what you could have. Hopefully, your architect could be up to the standards of a Rex Lotery or Ed Fickett or A. Quincy Jones.

How do new buyers deal with owning such iconic homes?

Interior designer Carole Katleman has a great philosophy about this. She has the old Helen Rose house, by Buff, Straub & Hensman. She had architecture firm Marmol Radziner redo it after a year of living there. She said, "I wanted to see how the light worked. I wanted to see what the house wanted." She listened to the architects. She wanted marble in the master bathroom surrounding the shower, and I believe it was Leo Marmol who said, "How about brick, to match the outside of the house?" The result is one of the happiest houses in Trousdale. The minute people see it, they all want to move m. What's the connection between Trousdale and Hollywood Regency? Regency is a completely California-born style. It came from the set designers [of the 1920s through the '50s]. And John Woolf was the hottest architect for the look. There are four Woolfs here. Paul Trousdale had Woolf build a house for him, which was really an idea that came from his wife, Jean.

What was the appeal ofTrousdale's social scene?

For all its celebrity stardust, there were always people like the guy who built the oxygen gear for the Mercury spacecrafts. Still showoff-y but less establish1nent. That was the whole appeal. That's why Groucho moved here fro1n the flats [of Beverly Hills]. He didn't want to have to go to the right parties with the right hostess and all that. Here was a way for people who could never be establishment enough to show they'd made it. It was very social. But you know the one thing I could never find? A picture of a party in Trousdale. You'd think there'd be some glamorous Frank Sinatra thing, but no.

Maybe. not establishment but most certainly image conscious.

The snobby ads in magazines like the New Yorker had the "you have to be very rich to live here" kind of attitude. Take Homer and Gloria Harvey, who were heirs to the Harvey Aluminum fortune. Gloria Harvey told me, "We got off the cruise ship and went right to the sales office, and they looked at us as if we were not ready to go forward with Trousdale Estates." She says salespeople's attitude changed when they asked if they could see some bigger lots. They ended up buying two parcels and built that massive Hal Levitt, which Jennifer Aniston later bought. It's still beautiful. Gloria gave me her pictures for the book. I worked hard to source things that no one else had ever seen, or that would be next to impossible to find again. S::os Angeles

William Stephenson, 95; designed homes for Reagan, other celebrities

October 26, 2007 i From a Times Staff Writer William R. Stephenson, a Los Angeles architect best known for designing the homes of several celebrities from Hollyv.ood's Golden Age including the Pacific Palisades residence of Ronald and Nancy Reagan, has died. He was 95-

Stephenson died of kidney failure Oct. 9 at his home in Brentwood, said his daughter Cecilia S. Duncan.

In a career spanning five decades in Southern California, Stephenson designed homes for a number of Hollywood's leading figures of the 1950s, including director King Vidor; actress Laraine Day; dancer Cyd Charisse and her singer husband, Tony Martin; and singer Jo Stafford and her arranger/composer husband, Paul Weston, according to Stephenson's family.

But his most famous clients were the Reagans. He designed their home in 1956, when the future California governor was a television star. In 1957, Stephenson told The Times that the residence was "not classified in my mind as Modern ranch house, [but] the style does indicate informality and country living and radiates a friendliness that one also feels from the owners."

Reagan, as host of "General Electric Theater," took his TV audience on tours of the all-electric home, then an example of a new utility industry campaign.

Years after building the Reagans' home in the Palisades, Stephenson drew preliminary architectural plans for a proposed governor's mansion in 1968, two years after Reagan was elected. The governor and his wife had been living in what Reagan biographer Lou Cannon described as "a dilapidated heap of Victorian gingerbread" when a group of Reagan suppo11ers conducted an unsuccessful fundraising drive to build a new home for the governor. The Reagans ended up Jiving in a 12-room Tudor house in Sacramento, which initially was rented and then bought by his supporters.

In 1972, Stephenson was awarded a $5,000 state contract to begin preliminary work on a new governor's mansion in Sacramento. According to a Times report in 1972 quoting the then-state architect Fred Hummel, Stephenson's role would be to write a plan "describing what a governor's residence should be -- how big, how many rooms, preliminary cost estimates, landscaping, security."

But plans for the mansion became a partisan issue, and the structure was never built.

Born in Portsmouth, Va., on Aug. 30, 1912, and raised in Norfolk, Va., Stephenson attended the University of Virginia, graduating with a degree in architecture in 1934. He moved to New York, where he eventually became a dance instructor for Arthur Murray. He parlayed his dancing ability into teaching jobs in Hawaii and in Los Angeles at the Ambassador Hotel and the Beverly Hills Hotel in the late 1930s and early 40s.

During World War II, he worked at Douglas Aircraft as a structural engineer and earned his license to practice architecture in 1946. He worked for architects Frank Lloyd Wright and Burton Schutt until the early 1950s, when he went into practice on his own. He retired in 1997.

In 1939, he married Patricia Burke Ziegfeld, the daughter of actress Billie Burke and Broadway impresario Florenz Ziegfeld.

He is survived by his wife; daughters Cecilia Duncan, Florenz Crossley and Susan Plemons; son W. Robert Stephenson Jr.; nine grandchildren; and three great-grandchildren.

Ms. Stephenson was born Oct. 23, 1916, in New York City, when her father was the king of Broadway, producing an annual Follies featuring the cream of Broadway talent. He had married Burke, an actress nearly 20 years his junior, in 1913. Her parents pampered her, buying her whatever she desired. When Patti was six, the producer bought her an elephant. Other animals that were added to the family's menagerie in Hastings-on-Hudson included two lion cubs, two bears, six ponies, a herd of deer and several cockatoos.

Mr. Ziegfeld died in 1932, when his daughter was still a teenager. After that, her mother moved her to California, where she -attended UCLA for a while. In 1939, she married William Stephenson, an architect who designed homes for many of Hollywood's leading citizens. He died last October. The couple had three daughters, Cecilia Duncan, Florenz Crossley and Susan Plemons; and a son, W. Robert Stephenson Jr.

In 1963, she published an autobiography called "The Ziegfelds' Girl: Confessions of an Abnormally Happy Childhood," in which she told colorful backstage tales about the people in her parents' circle. She appeared as herself in "Ziegfeld on Film" and "Broadway: The American Musical," both in 2004.
