Advancements in technologies, the promise of space travel, obsession with the automobile, and mass production presented opportunities for improvement in almost every aspect of life. Twentieth century architects, such as John Lautner, seized this opportunity to design buildings, both commercial and residential, that were unlike anything previously imagined. Though the Modernist movement began in the early 1900s, this mid-century cultural shift led to architectural styles such as Googie, Contemporary, and Organic, that contributed to a distinct style within the movement, now known as Mid-Century Modern. In 1954, Robert Roush, owner of Roush Bakery Products, hired architect Terry Waters to design a custom home for his family in the newly established Arden Oaks neighborhood in Sacramento, California. Drawing on principles learned from his time as a Taliesin Fellow and apprentice to renowned architect John Lautner, Waters designed an Organic style masterpiece, tailored to meet the needs of the Roush family.1 The residence, which is encased in plate glass and steel beams, quickly rose to fame in Sacramento, with the Roush family opening the property to the public for viewing shortly 1 Gretchen Steinberg, Dane Henas, and Karen Lial, “A Celebration of the Roush Residence,” Sacramento Modern, June 2, 2012, 6-8. 2 after its construction.2 The Roush Residence is still admired for its unique architecture, having been included in multiple historic home tours. This project will examine the Roush Residence’s eligibility for listing in the National Register of Historic Places and its context within the historic preservation movement and the Mid-Century Modern architectural movement. Chapter Two examines the evolution of historic preservation in the United States, California, and Sacramento, while establishing the economic and cultural benefits that preservation can provide to communities and individuals that make it a priority. Chapter Three analyzes the Mid- Century Modern architectural movement, and traces its journey from Europe to Sacramento, while identifying the architects and their processes, styles, and techniques that contributed to the development of this era of architecture. Chapter Four grounds the Roush Residence in its historic context by tracing the land use history of the parcel and establishing the period of significance for the property. Chapter Five describes the research process necessary for preparing the National Register nomination. Finally, Chapter Six evaluates the Roush Residence by establishing the property’s significance, analyzing its integrity, and determining its eligibility for listing in the National Register. Need for Project The City of Sacramento is dedicated to historic preservation as is made evident in the amount of resources within the city that are listed in the National Register of Historic Places, the California Register of Historical Resources, and the Sacramento Register of 2 “On Display…The Roush Residence, California’s Most Talked-About Home,” The Sacramento

  • 4.9 Cultural and Paleontological Resources
    4.9 CULTURAL AND PALEONTOLOGICAL RESOURCES This section considers and evaluates the potential impacts of the proposed project on cultural and paleontological resources. Cultural resources include historic buildings and structures, historic districts, historic sites, prehistoric and historic archaeological sites, and other prehistoric and historic objects and artifacts. Paleontological resources include fossil remains, as well as fossil localities and formations, which have produced fossil material in other nearby areas. CONCEPTS AND TERMINOLOGY FOR EVALUATION OF CULTURAL RESOURCES The following definitions are common terms used to discuss the regulatory requirements and treatment of cultural resources: Cultural resource is a term used to describe several different types of properties: prehistoric and historical archaeological sites; architectural properties such as buildings, bridges, and infrastructure; and resources of importance to Native Americans. Historic properties is a term defined by the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) as any prehistoric or historic district, site, building, structure, or object included in, or eligible for inclusion in, the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), including artifacts, records, and material remains related to such a property. Historical resource is a CEQA term that includes buildings, sites, structures, objects, or districts, each of which may have historical, prehistoric, architectural, archaeological, cultural, or scientific importance, and is eligible for listing or is listed in the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR). Paleontological resource is defined as fossilized remains of vertebrate and invertebrate organisms, fossil tracks and trackways, and plant fossils. A unique paleontological site would include a known area of fossil-bearing rock strata. 4.9.1 EXISTING SETTING PREHISTORY The Central Valley of California has long held the attention of California archaeologists.

  • Transformative Justice Community: a Countywide Evaluation of the Black Child Legacy Campaign
    ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We would first like to acknowledge the parents and families of Black children, women, and men living in the Sacramento Region. Your efforts, dedication, and desires for promising futures for your children is not lost during these uncertain times. We appreciate you! We also would like to lift up essential workers; community organizers; city, county, and state employees; and nonprofits for advocating for better life chances and opportunities for children who are too often marginalized and silenced because of their race and zip code. Black children matter. This evaluation would not be possible without the contributions of Dr. Damany Fisher and Vanessa Segunda. Dr. Fisher’s expertise on the history of Black migration, residential redlining, and the disinvestments of Black neighborhoods provided the historical analysis needed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Black Child Legacy Campaign implementation strategy. Vanessa Segunda, a graduate student at the University of California, Davis pursuing her PhD, assisted with data collection and analysis and the drafting and designing of the evaluation. We acknowledge the technical and back office assistance from the Transformative Justice in Education Center (UC Davis) and UC Davis Office of Research and Policy for Equity. We also are grateful for the support from the Sierra Health Foundation. Leslie Cooksy, Kindra Montgomery-Block, and Noemi Avalos gave us access to data, people, and events. Finally, this evaluation focuses on the work of the people living or working in Oak Park, Del Paso Heights-North Sacramento, Arden Arcade, North Highlands-Foothill Farms, Fruitridge-Stockton Boulevard, Meadowview, and Valley Hi. To all the organizations and people representing these communities, thank you for the opportunity to observe and listen to your stories of the Black Child Legacy Campaign experience.
