April 2007 City of Beverly Hills Commercial Area 5-Historic Resources Survey Update SUMMARY The City of Beverly Hills Department of Planning and Community Development obtained services in architectural history from Jones & Stokes to update the City’s Historic Resources Survey (HRS) for Area 5 Commercial (see map of survey areas, next page). Phase I of the HRS was prepared in 1985-86 and included a windshield survey of 2,790 properties. Of those properties, 371 were recorded on Department of Parks and Recreation historic resources inventory forms (DPR 523 forms), and 27 of them were recorded in Commercial Area 5. The 1985-86 HRS essentially used a 50-year age criterion, and therefore evaluated very few properties constructed after 1945. In 2004, PCR Services Corp. prepared Phase II of the HRS, preparing update DPR 523 forms for the 371 Phase I properties, and preparing reconnaissance level DPR 523 forms for Area 4 Multi-Family Residence Survey. The purpose of the 2006 Phase III survey of Area 5 Commercial is to: 1) provide update DPR 523 forms on the 27 Phase I properties, and 2) conduct a reconnaissance survey of properties constructed after 1935 but before 1965. The project methodology follows that of the reconnaissance level survey effort documented on DPR 523 forms according to California Office of Historic Preservation Instructions for Recording Historical Resources.
