Indicate whether the property has historic integrity.) ______________________________________________________________________________ Summary Paragraph The Ely Community Center is a three-story, rectangular, flat-roofed building clad in Mankato Grey limestone at the corner of First Avenue East and Harvey Street. The structure was built by the city of Ely with the assistance of the Public Works Administration in 1938. The main entry is centered on the west façade which faces First Avenue. There is a secondary entrance on the south façade facing Harvey. On all sides there are tall rectangular window openings filled with glass block. The main entrance leads into a lobby with marble-clad walls and a gold leaf ceiling. The lobby provides access to the main stairway, as well as to the areas that formerly housed the library, offices, and public meeting rooms. On the second floor there is a large, two-story auditorium/dance hall with a stage, green room, restrooms and several offices. The basement contains a large cafeteria, kitchens, public toilet and shower rooms, and more space for meetings and offices. The building’s architectural detailing reflects the PWA Moderne style of the Art Deco period, especially in the strictly symmetrical front façade, the smooth stone surfaces, the extensive use of glass block, and the low relief sculptural panels with stylized figures of working men which decorate the primary facades. Although some of the glass block has been replaced by conventional windows, and a few interior walls reconfigured, most of the distinguishing architectural characteristics of the exterior are intact and most of the internal detailing of the key public spaces like the lobby, library, and the auditorium are unchanged. _____________________________________________________________________________ Section 7 page 4 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service / National Register of Historic Places Registration Form NPS Form 10-900 OMB No. 1024-0018 Ely Community Center St. Louis County, Minn. Name of Property County and State Narrative Description Exterior The Ely Community Center is a three-story, flat-roofed building with full basement at the corner of 1st Avenue East and Harvey Street built in 1938 by the city of Ely with the assistance of the Public Works Administration. In scale and style it stands apart from all the surrounding structures, a permanent reminder of its origins as an Art Deco artifact of the New Deal. Except for a projecting entrance bay, the footprint of the building is a rectangle with the two longest façades running north and south for 125 feet from the property line along the sidewalk on Harvey Street to the property line at the alley on the north side of the building. The east and west facades extend for about 78 feet and are set back about 10 feet from the east and west property lines. The first floor, second floor, and basement levels fill the entire footprint. The third floor level, which contains the higher elevations of the auditorium, the fly space of the stage, a fan room, and the projection room, has a smaller footprint as it is set back twenty feet along the west façade and also at the northeast and southeast corners. The taller eastern section housing the auditorium has poured concrete structural elements except that the roof is supported by steel trusses. The lower section along the western façade has poured concrete roofs and floors with walls composed of structural clay tile reinforced with brick. All exterior facades are covered in 4 inch thick Mankato Grey limestone cut in large square panels. The main entry is centered on the west façade which faces First Avenue East. This elevation is about 33 feet high and is symmetrical in plan. The façade is divided into seven bays and the most important visual feature of the building is the central projecting bay which contains the main entrance (Photo #1). To both the left and the right of the central bay are three identical bays, each of which contains a very large rectangular metal-framed window opening filled with Corning

    A Guide to Historic Santa Monica City Hall

    A G U I D E T O Historic Santa Monica City Hall The city seal, measuring 79 inches in diameter, was created with the same “Petrachrome” method and a palette of colors, textures and elements similar to those used in the Macdonald-Wright murals. Encircled by the words, “City of Santa Monica, California. Founded 1875,” the seal features a mermaid and Spanish galleon on the bay, with sun, mountains, clouds and airplanes behind. A ribbon near the base of the seal carries the city’s motto, Populus Felix en Urbe Felice, translated from the Latin as “Fortunate People in a Fortunate Land.” The seal is inlaid in the center of the foyer floor, surrounded by color tiles that run along the east-west axis of the foyer and halls. A serrated pattern of yellow triangles running against a brown field, bordered by black stripes, echoes the chevron pattern on the tiled wainscoting found nearby. T he Overview With a nautical quality befitting its seaside locale, Santa Monica City Hall reflects the character of its surroundings, making it a civic building truly connected to its constituency. Designed by two prominent Los Angeles architects, it is rec- ognized as an outstanding example of the Public Works Administration (PWA) Moderne style of architecture popularized by Depression-era architects. With original Gladding, McBean ceramic tiles found around the west entrance doorway and throughout the building, and historic Stanton Macdonald-Wright murals in the entry foyer that document the city’s and the state’s history, the building’s architecture has earned it a place in the California Register of Historical Resources (1996), designation as a city landmark and eligibility for listing in the federal Register of Historic Places.

    APPENDIX B Historic Assessment HISTORIC RESOURCES IMPACTS ASSESSMENT 223 and 241 N. Jackson Street, Glendale CA November 2017 12 S. Fair Oaks Avenue, Suite 200, Pasadena, CA 91105-1915 Telephone 626 793 2400, Facsimile 626 793 2401 www.historicresourcesgroup.com 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1 Per your request, Historic Resources Group has conducted a historic assessment of two joined buildings at 223 N. Jackson Street, and one adjacent building at 241 N. Jackson Street, in the City of Glendale, California. This historic assessment has been conducted by Paul Travis, AICP, Principal; Andrea Humberger, Principal, and John LoCascio, Senior Historic Architect. Research assistance was provided by Robby Aranguren, Associate Planner/GIS Specialist and Scott Watson, Intern. This assessment is based on a review of the relevant historic contexts and an analysis of the eligibility criteria and integrity thresholds for listing in the National Register of Historic Places and the California Register of Historical Resources, and for designation as a City of Glendale Historic Resource. One subject property is located at 223 N. Jackson Street on a large block bounded by N. Jackson Street on the east, N. Kenwood Street on the west and E. Wilson Avenue to the south. The northern boundary is an alley between 227 and 233 N. Jackson Street. This assessment is focused on two buildings at the northeastern corner of the block: (1) a 2- story, former storage warehouse constructed in 1938 and a four-story office building constructed in 1971. A narrow, 2-story communicating passage connects the two buildings. The two buildings house the administrative offices for the Glendale Unified School District.
  • Prospect Hill Cluster Santa Monica High School Campus

    Prospect Hill Cluster Santa Monica High School Campus

    Independent Analysis of Studies of Historic Resources on the Samohi Campus The Santa Monica Conservancy recently became aware of past historic resource assessments prepared for the SMMUSD in connection with future campus development. In view of the importance of Samohi to our community, we suggest that consideration be given to an alternative development approach that incorporates significant historic buildings on the campus. Rehabilitation rather than demolition should be considered for certain buildings. A Potential Historic District Exists on Prospect Hill The Historic Core of the Santa Monica High School Campus constitutes a historic grouping that could become part of the Facilities Master Plan upgrades. The core consists of the English (1924/1937), History (1913/1937), Art (1937), Business (1913/1937) and Business Annex (1940) Buildings, which all retain their original 1913 location, WPA architectural character, and orientation atop Prospect Hill. By retaining the historic academic core of the campus, an opportunity to restore the original quad area as an open space connection to the landmarked Barnum Hall and historic Greek Theater presents itself, enhancing rather than undermining the historic context of those two acknowledged, major historic resources. Two research reports commissioned by SMMUSD since 2008 present evidence of high significance for the numerous WPA buildings and art works all over the school district, but most significantly at Samohi, which has the greatest concentration of them in the City of Santa Monica. Because of later alterations, the EIR evaluated those resources as below the threshold for historic integrity, even though some of those changes are significant in themselves. Also, the EIR dismissed Samohi’s eligibility as a potential historic district by looking at too large a grouping.
