  • West Adams Matters
    WAHA Number 241 West Adams Heritage Association June 2007 West Adams Matters A Landmark Victorian Cottage Needs New Home by Laura Meyers The little 1890 Queen Anne cottage on Washington Boulevard is battered and beaten up, but not bowed. And now the Henry Obee Cottage, boarded up for more than a year, has passed one hurdle in the effort to save this little piece of West Adams history. In May, eight months after Anna Marie Brooks took the initiative and nominated the property for landmark status, the Los Angeles Cultural Heritage Commission voted to declare the Henry Obee Cottage ,^y^ > f , a Cultural-Historic Monument (HCM). But that vote came with a caveat: the Victorian cottage I has lost its original context and should be moved to a more compatible site, near residences of similar character. Brooks, WAHA, and several other preservation activists, including Ben Davis and Mitzi Mogul, played a seminal role in having this home's historic status recognized and made official. Indeed, the City's staff had recommended against an HCM determination, saying that the cottage wasn't "distinguished" enough. But we rallied to the cause, attending the May hearing and arguing, in part, that in fact vernacular cottages are as much a fabric of Los Angeles history - telling the story of Southern California's development from pueblo to cosmopolitan metropolis — as are mansions designed by famous architects. Located at 1408 West Washington Blvd. near the corner of New England Street (between Henry Obee Cottage's Hoover and Vermont), the Obee Cottage sits on a lot that is slated for the development of new nortli gable detail (continued on page 10) WAHA's Star Spangled 4th of July Wednesday, July 4,1 - 4 p.m.
