In July 2014, the City contracted with Historic Resources Group for the preparation of the Historic Context Statement. It follows the guidance outlined for the development of historic contexts in the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and Guidelines for Archaeology and Historic Preservation, along with National Register Bulletin 16B: How to Complete the National Register Multiple Property Documentation Form. The activity which is the subject of this Historic Context Statement has been financed in part with Federal funds from the National Park Service, Department of the Interior, through the California Office of Historic Preservation. However, the contents and opinions do not necessarily reflect the views or policies of the Department of the Interior or the California Office of Historic Preservation, nor does mention of trade names or commercial products constitute endorsement or recommendation by the Department of the Interior or the California Office of Historic Preservation. Regulations of the U.S. Department of the Interior strictly prohibit unlawful discrimination in departmental federally-assisted programs on the basis of race, color, sex, age, disability, or national origin. Any person who believes he or she has been discriminated against in any program, activity, or facility operated by a recipient of Federal assistance should write to: Director, Equal Opportunity Program U.S. Department of the Interior National Park Service P.O. Box 37127 Washington, D.C. 20013-7127 City of Glendale 4 South Glendale Historic Context HISTORIC RESOURCES GROUP South Glendale Community Plan • City of Glendale, CA Appendix A.1 DRAFT 9 Jan 2018 Introduction PROJECT TEAM The City of Glendale received a State of California Certified Local Government (CLG) grant for the period 2013-2014 to prepare a historic context statement for the South Glendale Community Plan area (identified in the map on page 8). It was developed by Historic Resources Group, including Christine Lazzaretto, Principal; Sian Winship, Architectural Historian; and Robby Aranguren, Planning Associate. All three meet the Secretary of the Interior's qualifications in historic preservation.1 Coordination of the project on behalf of the City was administered by Jay Platt, Senior Urban Designer. Project review and oversight from the California Office of Historic Preservation was provided by Amanda Blosser. STATEMENT OF PURPOSE The City of Glendale is committed to the preservation of its historic buildings, neighborhoods, and sites as part of its overall goal of planning for the future. The South Glendale Community Plan is currently being prepared as an update to the General Plan in order to promote, enhance, and regulate future development in Southern Glendale. The South Glendale Historic Context will serve to inform the Community Plan as well as the required environmental review. The South Glendale Historic Context will be an important component of the Community Plan and will assist in the identification and protection of historic resources, as well as inform other aspects of the Plan such as policy recommendations, zoning changes, and design review. HISTORIC CONTEXT STATEMENTS In order to understand the significance of the historic and architectural resources in the City of Glendale, it is necessary to examine those resources within a series of contexts. By placing built resources in the appropriate historic, social, and architectural context, the relationship between an area’s physical environment and its broader history can be established. A historic context statement analyzes the historical development of a community according to guidelines written by the National Park Service and specified in National Register Bulletin 16A: Historic context is information about historic trends and properties grouped by an important theme in pre-history or history of a community, state, or the nation during a particular period of time. Because historic contexts are organized by theme, place, and time, they link historic properties to important historic trends. In this way, they provide a framework for determining the significance of a property.2 1 Federal Register, Vol. 48, No. 190, p. 44738-44739, September 29, 1983. 2 National Park Service, “National Register Bulletin 16A: How to Complete the National Register Registration Form,” Washington, DC: U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, 1997, 4. City of Glendale 5 South Glendale Historic Context HISTORIC RESOURCES GROUP South Glendale Community Plan • City of Glendale, CA Appendix A.1 DRAFT 9 Jan 2018 A historic context statement is linked with tangible built resources through the concept of “property type,” a grouping of individual properties based on shared physical or associative characteristics. It should identify the various historical factors that shaped the development of the area, including: Historical activities or events Historic personages Building types, architectural styles, and materials Patterns of physical development A historic context statement is not a comprehensive history of an area. Rather, it is intended to highlight trends and patterns critical to the understanding of the built environment. It provides a framework for the continuing process of identifying historic, architectural, and cultural resources. It may also serve as a guide to enable citizens, planners, and decision-makers to evaluate the relative significance and integrity of individual properties. Specific examples referred to in this context statement are included to illustrate physical and associative characteristics of each resource type. METHODOLOGY South Glendale contains the historic heart of the City. Residential neighborhoods and commercial districts in South Glendale include numerous historic resources, dating from the late 19th century through significant periods of 20th-century development. Understanding the history of the built environment in this area of Glendale is particularly important, given its historical significance and current development pressures. The South Glendale context will use the National Register of Historic Places Multiple

  • 2 What We've Heard
    2 What We’ve Heard A meaningful Citywide Pedestrian Plan must truly reflect the needs and priorities of Glendale residents. Over the last 14 months, the project team has used a variety of in-person and online approaches to connect with those who live, work, and play in Glendale. This chapter provides an overview of those activities and identifies key themes that have emerged. The sections below describe the ways we have engaged the public, providing information about the techniques we’ve used, who has participated, and what we learned from each outreach event. The in-person events and groups described below were complemented by an online survey early in the project as well as a project website (see Figure 2-1) and social media presence by the City of Glendale. The online survey was used specifically to shape the Be Street Smart Glendale pedestrian safety education campaign, and more information about that is available at bestreetsmartglendale.com. Figure 2-1 Screenshot of Pedestrian Plan Website Source: Be Street Smart Glendale, http://www.bestreetsmartglendale.com/ Glendale Citywide Pedestrian Plan Glendale Citywide Pedestrian Plan 2-1 Pedestrian Safety Advisory Committee The Pedestrian Safety Advisory Committee (PSAC) was established by City Council Resolution to provide guidance in the development of the Citywide Pedestrian Plan, the Citywide Safety Education Initiative (Be Street Smart Glendale), and the Safe Routes to School Non-Infrastructure Program.

Erie, Chair Professor David G. Gutierrez Professor Samuel H. Kernell Professor Victor V. Magagna Professor Isaac W. Martin 2008 Copyright James Warren Ingram III, 2008 All rights reserved. The Dissertation of James Warren Ingram III is approved, and it is acceptable in quality and form for publication on microfilm: __________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________ Chair University of California, San Diego 2008 iii DEDICATION This dissertation is dedicated two women—my mother, Gerri Dack, and my wife Clarissa Ingram. Without their love and patience, it would not have been possible. My wife, Clarissa has endured my obsession with charter reform in specific and Los Angeles in general far longer than I would care to admit. Her own interests are very different, but her tolerance and intelligence has allowed us to stay close as we develop our divergent intellectual interests. By attending long charter reform meetings and discussing the issues with me over a period of years, she has come to understand the field better than many who consider themselves experts. My mother, Gerri has always encouraged me to think of a larger audience in my intellectual pursuits. She has always valued common sense over fancy theories, and I have relied on my understanding of her sensibilities as a test of whether a particular way of looking at a subject made any sense, or would be a mere exercise in mental gymnastics.
