    M E M O R A N D U M PLANNING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT CITY OF SANTA MONICA PLANNING DIVISION DATE: June 11, 2012 TO: Honorable Members of the Landmarks Commission FROM: Planning Staff SUBJECT: 1554 5th Street, LC-12LM-003 Public Hearing to Consider a Landmark Designation Application for the commercial building at 1550 5th Street, 1554-1558 5th Street and 417 Colorado Avenue. PROPERTY OWNER: 1550 5th Street, LLC APPLICANT: City of Santa Monica Landmarks Commission INTRODUCTION & BACKGROUND The subject building, the Goodrum and Vincent Building, was originally constructed in 1928. The building currently houses a Midas muffler repair shop, although a Buick automobile dealership with a appurtenant repair shop, was the original tenant. The Buick dealership vacated the premises in 1935. Midas has been the major tenant in the building since at least 1960. Designed in a Spanish Colonial Revival style with Churriguresque detailing on its exterior and interior, the building has been altered as its use and tenancy has changed over time. Overall, the majority of the building has lost important components of its original architectural integrity, including the removal of storefront windows, the covering of openings, and the removal of its signature band course. Furthermore, the addition of a shotcrete material diminishes what’s left of the plasterwork and compromises the building’s original architectural distinction. Most of the changes and alterations are considered irreversible. Research has shown that the building has an association with the inventor and aviator Waldo Waterman. He first leased the subject property for his company, Waterman Arrowplane Corporation, in 1935.

  • Histoire De La Voiture Volante Les Six Concepts De La Voiture Volante 1917 : L'avion‐Automobile Curtiss
    Histoire de la Voiture volante Qui n’a jamais rêvé de s’échapper des bouchons de circulation en s’envolant à bord de sa voiture volante? Les six concepts de la voiture volante Pour comprendre comment les voitures volantes ont cherché à conquérir le ciel, il faut tout d’abord connaître les différents concepts élaborés jusqu’à ce jour par des inventeurs qui ont bien souvent risqué leur vie dans cette aventure et même, pour certains, perdue. Les six concepts proposés ici vous permettront de mieux comprendre l’histoire palpitante des voitures volantes tout en vous présentant un aperçu de demain : 1. L’avion‐automobile dont les ailes sont repliées ou enlevées pour prendre la route : à la base, c’est un avion; 2. La voiture volante munie d’ailes repliables ou intégrées : à la base, c’est une voiture; 3. La voiture qui devient volante en s’intégrant de façon fixe ou amovible à une partie d’avion; 4. La voiture volante munie de turbines pour décoller et atterrir à la verticale; 5. La voiture volante munie d’hélices, à la manière d’un hélicoptère ou d’un autogire; 6. Le véhicule personnel aérien (PAV) (sans roue). 1917 : l’avion‐automobile Curtiss L’avion des frères Orville et Wilbur Wright venait à peine de quitter le tarmac en 1903 que déjà d’ingénieux inventeurs cherchaient à les faire rouler sur nos routes. Considéré comme étant le premier avion‐automobile inventé, l’avion automobile, créé par Glenn Curtiss en 1917, était un véhicule à 3 places (une place avant et deux places arrière) intégré à un avion triplan.
