Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries). Architectural Description: This house is a two-story rectangular Colonial Revival style home with Regency Colonial influences. The home was custom designed in 1939 by Master Builder William F. Wahrenberger and construction was completed in 1940. The single family residence features a balanced façade with balanced main two-story section with one story garage set back on the north side and a single story family room wing projecting out on the southern side. The home utilizes a two-story shallow pitched side gabled roof with matching side gabled one-story extending side wing and matching side garage wing which is semi-attached to the home. The house has a rectangular form and compound plan and is surfaced with stucco on the first floor and horizontal boards on the upper second level. The style of the house is the more modestly detailed sub-type of Regency Colonial Revival style which is loosely based on Georgian and other early English precedents. The entrance is recessed on the left side of the façade with simple dentil cornice and Doric pilasters accentuating the inset entry. The home represents an excellent example of a Regency Colonial Revival home constructed by Master Builder William F. Wahrenberger. The home has a recent rear addition which was approved by City Historic Resources Department staff as meeting the Secretary of Interior Standards and which sits mostly outside of the public view. *P3b.

The Colonial Revival style became popular during the suburban growth of the 1925-1945 era, because it evoked patriotic memories of America's past, drawing inspiration from our American and English architectural heritage and also because the style had an old world charm which was considered to be in harmony with the older architecture of many existing neighborhoods. The Cape Cod was one of the most popular sub styles of the Colonial Revival styles. The post medieval English, Georgian, Adam, Dutch and Garrison Saltbox Colonials were also popular as Colonial Revival fashions shifted through the era. The Regency Revival Style. The Regency variant of Colonial Revival is actually a revival of the original Regency style and is sometimes also known as Regency Revival. The original Regency style was named after the era of King George IV of England who was appointed to serve as the Regent of England from 1811 to 1820. The Regency variation of the Colonial Revival style was loosely patterned after early English houses rather than early American precedents. The Colonial / Regency Revival sub-style was popular for a brief period in the mid to late 1930's, with a few post-World War II examples and is characterized by its symmetrical shallow roof shape and box like two-story form, as well as the frequent use of differing lower and upper second floor level materials as seen in this example. The style emphasizes the front doorway and entryway as well as other Colonial Revival styles, but in a more simplified and subdued form than the exaggerated pediments and other detailing seen on other Colonial examples.

  • Figures for Boundary Justification
    NORTH PARK DRYDEN HISTORICAL DISTRICT Supplemental Boundary Justification Many of the properties along Pershing Avenue and 28 th Street between Upas and Landis streets exhibit a higher level of architectural quality and larger scale than the homes on surrounding streets. A high number of the homes within the proposed North Park Dryden Historical District were built by prominent designer-builders of the early 1900s. This supplemental application examines what drew some of San Diego’s best builders to these two street segments in the 19-teens and twenties, giving rise to the notable concentration, integrity and quality of the Craftsman, Mission- and Spanish Revival bungalows within the proposed District boundaries. There are four primary reasons: 1. Direct automobile access to New Town San Diego by way of a wagon trail through the City Park, upgraded as Pershing Drive in the 1920s, 2. Unique building sites created by offset intersections and topography, 3. Potential views and access to the City Park, and 4. Residence of prominent business persons. This section justifies the proposed District boundaries, which do not correspond neatly to an underlying subdivision, in terms of the classic real estate adage “location location location,” a motivation for residential development that has spanned San Diego’s history as a city. Previous City Research and Planning The boundaries and the name of the proposed district are consistent with more than 15 years of research and planning for historical districts conducted by the City of San Diego Planning

  • The Machado Sisters: the Californianas of Old Town, San Diego
    1 Victor Walsh, San Diego Coast District Historian II March 12, 2002 Living History Presentation The Machado Sisters: The Californianas of Old Town, San Diego William Heath Davis, an American land speculator and promoter of New Town, once wrote: During my long and intimate acquaintance with Californians, I have found the women as a class much brighter, much quicker in their perceptions, and generally smarter than the men. Their husbands oftentimes looked to them for advice and direction in their general business affairs. As a rule they were not much educated; but they had abundant instinct and native talent,…1 The lives of the four Machado sisters featured in this month’s living history dramatization tend to confirm Davis’ observation. Juana de Dios (1814-1901), María Antonía Juliana (1815- 1887), María Guadalupe (1819-1884), and Rosa María (1828-1893) were central and visible in the Old Town community. Living out the bulk of their lives around Washington Plaza, they maintained deep attachments to their families and to their Catholic faith. Two qualities stand out: They were steadfastly independent within the constraints of a rural, patriarchal society, and they established close relationships with blood kin and nonrelatives alike through a compadrazgo system of obligation and mutual respect. The sisters were the descendants of hearty pioneer-soldier stock from Sinaloa in northwestern Mexico. Their father, José Manuel Machado, was a soldado de cuero (leather- jacket soldier), Spain’s elite mounted dragoons, who was promoted to company corporal while stationed at the San Diego presidio. As repayment for his military service, he was granted a plot of land near the San Diego River below the presidio.

    Uptown Historic Context and Oral History Report Historic Overview of the City of San Diego II. Historic Overview of the City of San Diego A. Introduction The land use history of the Uptown Study Area provides an example of the trends and cycles of San Diego's urban development. The property has been part of every major developmental phase of San Diego prior to World War II and its history illustrates the city's development through its early boom and bust periods and its expansion into residential suburbs in the early Twentieth Century. Pressure from the Post World War II population increase brought a variety of pressures and changes to portions of the area during the last half of the Twentieth Century. The Uptown community contains some of the oldest neighborhoods in San Diego exhibiting a variety of historic architectural types and abundant landscaping. The area also features a wide range of residential opportunities and a diverse mixture of people within a distinctly urban setting. Most of the street system and building lot development was well established prior to the need to consider the automobile as a part of subdivision planning (Community Plan 1988; Cultural Resource Inventory 1993). This narrative history will trace the development of the Uptown Study Area along with that of urban San Diego. The historic development use of the neighborhoods correlates with the economic and social factors that influenced San Diego's growth. Many aspects of life in early San Diego will be examined. The economic booms and busts linked to railroads, other speculative ventures, and development of a military port, as well as community based developments, will be documented in relation to the people and institutions that lived in, and used the Uptown area.

Much of what we value today is from their unique contributions that have shaped the social, cultural and historic landscape. Jaye MacAskill But just how much do we fully know of this tapestry of cultures? Our understanding of how we have been molded by these pioneers, trailblazers, Dan Soderberg and immigrants may be somewhat incomplete. This issue shines a light on a few of the peoples who have made us what we are today, however short a time John Eisenhart they were here, but can only scratch the surface of the multitude of stories that make up the diversity of ethnicities of our communities. Jessica McGee Ken Anderson This diversity of cultures has greatly influenced our region’s architecture, David Goldberg Erik Hanson landscapes, and commercial and residential communities.
