Aerial view of Assessor’s Block 1579 (Apple Maps) 2910–12 Telegraph Avenue Landmark Application, Page 3 of 61 Executive Summary The Yazdi Building is the only Storybook Style building on Telegraph Avenue. It is one of only two solo projects in Berkeley by the notable architect William I. Garren, the other one being his own home (1927) at 2573 Buena Vista Way. The Yazdi Building is also Garren’s only mixed-use building in Berkeley and the last one he designed here. The building is notable for its complex massing, steep gable roofs, dormer gables, picturesque brick chimneys, and multi-paned steel-sash windows. The building was designed as the home and business of Ali M. Yazdi and his wife, Marion Carpenter Yazdi, who owned a Persian carpet and gift shop. Ali M. Yazdi was a well-known Bahá’í lecturer and writer, served on many national committees of the National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá’ís of the United States and was, for thirty years, chairman of the Spiritual Assembly of Berkeley. Marion Carpenter Yazdi was the first Bahá’í student at the University of California and a noted speaker and writer in her own right. The building also served as the home of Margery Carpenter, a leading Berkeley social worker and for many years the executive secretary of the City of Berkeley’s Commission of Public Charities. Following the Yazdi era, the building served a succession of design-oriented businesses, including Lila’s Antiques, Robert Bruce of Berkeley, and Gallery Extraña/Emily the Strange. The Yazdi Building has anchored its block since 1933, lending distinction and charm to Telegraph Avenue. Figure 5. Yazdi Bldg., aerial view (Apple Maps) 2910–12 Telegraph Avenue Landmark Application, Page 4 of 61 Figure 6. Telegraph Ave. façade (Google Street View) 14. Description The Yazdi Building is a one- and two-story wood-frame, stucco-clad structure comprising several wings that are variously crowned by gable and flat roofs. It is located on a street corner, and its two main wings are perpendicular to each other, leaving a small landscaped plaza at the southeast corner. The building was designed in 1933 in the Storybook style, characterized here by complex massing; steep gable roofs; dormer gables; picturesque brick chimneys and brick trim; multi-paned steel-sash windows, originally with rustic wooden shutters; and an external staircase (altered). In Storybook-style fashion, the Yazdi Building evokes the character of an old northern European structure added onto over time. There is intentional asymmetry and broken-up massing, but all the elements come together in a harmonious whole and are unified by common detailing. Although the building has been expanded and altered, most alterations are interior and the expansions have largely been to the rear, where they do not impact the primary Telegraph Avenue façade and the Howe Street/Telegraph Avenue corner. The original design had the overall character of a narrow two-story house joined to the rear of a one-story shop building. This visual character reflects the original use of the property. Like the landmark Tupper & Reed Building (W.R. Yelland, 1925), the Yazdi Building sacrifices conventional commercial frontage to achieve a whimsical and picturesque façade. In both cases, the effect achieved is akin to walking through a European village or early American town and seeing a building with a ground-floor shop offering glimpses into an intriguing interior, rather than a blatantly 20th-century commercial façade. 2910–12 Telegraph Avenue Landmark Application, Page 5 of 61 Figure 7. The Yazdi Bldg. in 1939 (Ormsby Donogh files, BAHA archives) According to the original building permit, the Yazdi Building’s dimensions were 48 feet by 56 feet, and its maximum height was 24 feet. It was designed as a “two-story, seven-room frame building to be occupied as dwelling by 2 families, 1 store.” From 1933 to 1956, it housed a Persian carpet/gift shop; two apartments, occupied by the owners and a close relative; a garage; and, presumably, storage. The shop’s one-and-a-half-story showroom faced Telegraph Avenue, while the two apartments were located in the two-story residential wing along Howe Street. In the absence of architectural plans, the closest idea we can form about the original layout is based on the 1950 Sanborn map, since the Yazdis did not obtain any alteration permits during their period of ownership, which ended in 1956. This layout shows a rough C-shaped commercial structure arranged around a central courtyard, with a rectangular residential wing closing the gap on the south side (Fig. 8). Figure 8. Yazdi Bldg. footprint in the 1950 Sanborn map 2910–12 Telegraph Avenue Landmark Application, Page 6 of 61 The building’s second and third owners constructed additions between 1956 and 1977. The additions are concentrated in the rear of the lot or in the interior, and the 1956 extension facing Howe Street is compatible with the original Howe Street façade, utilizing similar materials.

Wayland, LLC purchased the property in February 2014 and sold it in February 2016. During this period, most of the plantings, as well as a number of original features on the residential wing, were removed, and the building was repainted in darker colors. These alterations are reversible. Showroom Wing The showroom wing is a tall, gable-roofed rectangle flanked by two lower cross-gabled wings. The main gable roof is open-eaved and features bargeboards that are under-mounted with four bullnosed wooden brackets on either side. The stucco walls are textured with broad palette knife marks. 2910–12 Telegraph Avenue Landmark Application, Page 7 of 61 Figure 9. The Yazdi Building in 2010 (courtesy of Gallery Extraña) East Façade Dominating the street façade of the showroom wing is a slightly recessed full- height, multi-paned, steel-sash show window with a brick sill. The lower two- thirds of this window are divided into 7-over-7 lights. The triangular portion at the top comprises three rows of lights that narrow from seven to three lights in the angle of the gable. Although most of the sash is fixed, the upper portion of the main window panel includes an operable awning panel of 3-over-2 lights. Two curlicued wrought-iron sign mounts flank the show window. Northeast Cross-Gable Wing Extending north from the main gable is a small wing under a steep cross- gable. The interior of this wing forms part of the showroom and contains a brick fireplace whose chimney has a Venturi cap featuring two tiers of vertically laid, spaced bricks. Embedded at the top of the cross-gable wall are three clay-pipe vents arranged in a triangle (Fig. 10). The roof of this wing descends lower than that of the main showroom mass. Immediately below the roof eave is a corner steel-sash window glazed 4-over-2 on the east side and 2-over-2 on the north side.

  • Responses to Questions About the East Bay Bus Rapid Transit Project and Draft Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA)
    Item 12 - Attachment 6 Attachment B1-E Responses to Questions about the East Bay Bus Rapid Transit Project and Draft Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA) Following is a list of questions about the East Bay BRT Project and the City of Berkeley’s staff proposal for a draft LPA compiled from written comments received through November 9, 2009 and questions submitted by the Willard Neighborhood in September 2009. Questions and answers are arranged into the following subject areas: 1. Traffic Impacts 2. Parking Impacts 3. Pedestrian and Bicycle Impacts 4. Land Use, Economic and Business Impacts 5. Transit Ridership/Demand 6. Route and Stops 7. Project Costs 8. Local Bus Service 9. Transit Fare 10. Other Questions 1. Traffic Impacts 1.1 What are the potential traffic mitigations that could be implemented in the Willard neighborhood? [Response from AC Transit.] To ensure an effective BRT project, consideration of trade- offs related to the movement of persons in the corridor is required. Dedicated use of a travel lane for the BRT system will likely result in traffic diversion from Telegraph onto local streets. To understand the likelihood, magnitude and specific locations of this effect, neighborhood traffic analysis will be conducted as part of the FEIS/R. To address potential adverse effects to local streets, AC Transit is considering implementing a neighborhood traffic protection program. The neighborhood protection program would assist in paying for the installation of devices to reduce traffic volumes or reduce traffic speeds on local streets, should they be adversely affected by the BRT project. AC Transit and the cities will need to establish criteria for when a local street is considered adversely affected and action is warranted.

  • Do You Have Any Other Comments About Upper Solano Avenue?
    Do you have any other comments about Upper Solano Avenue? # Response Date Response Text 1 Sep 12, 2010 8:39 PM Need wider sidewalks for outdoor seating and street trees Definitely change the restaurant permit limit issue. It makes restaurants less competitive; if you have a permit, you stay because new ones can't come in and compete. It discourages staying current 2 Sep 12, 2010 9:04 PM and investment in older restaurants, and once the restaurant business get lazy, then the whole street loses it's competitive edge. Look at Oakland. They are doing something right. Please don't let the NIMBYs and "Party of No" stop 3 Sep 12, 2010 11:06 PM improvements! 4 Sep 13, 2010 12:28 AM Signal at The Alameda should be made pedestrian safer. Upper Solano has INSUFFICIENT PARKING. That's what keeps 5 Sep 13, 2010 3:27 AM me away. I only go there as often as I do to go to La Farine bakery on Sunday mornings. It's a bit staid. I drive to Oakland to go to dinner on Telegraph (e.g. Pizzaiola, Dona Tomas) or Piedmont Ave (e.g. Dopo) rather than 6 Sep 14, 2010 3:17 AM going to Solano. Needs more cafes with outdoor seating. Needs more life in the evening. Could use a place like Oakland's Bakesale Betty's to draw traffic. I would like to see a variety of businesses on Solano that would provide local shopping for residents. An increase in the number of restaurants would not accomplish this goal.
