UNM Historic Properties

HISTORIC CULTURAL PROPERTIES INVENTORY (HCPI) FORMS Section C

The cultural hybrid vigor of those buildings transported into an academic setting have made the University of New Mexico’s central campus, in my judgement, an architectural homage to one of the few places in the New World that Europeans and indigenous people worked out a cultural symbiosis in which native and European world views interacted with each other but preserved their independence and integrity.

Historic Preservation Office, New Mexico Department of Cultural Affairs Biography of Architect Beula Nixon Fleming 1 Beula Nixon Fleming was born on January 30, 1904 in Jicarilla, New Mexico. She was delivered in a tent, not far from the school where her mother was a teacher. Her grandfather was a buffalo hunter in Dodge City. After moving to Albuquerque in 1929, Fleming enrolled in the International Correspondence School to study architectural design, where she excelled in geometric drawing and calculations. Working out of her home at 3000 Monterey SE in Albuquerque, Fleming made a successful living as an independent designer and draftsperson, from 1938 to1969. She also worked in association with at least two other architects, Owasa J. Jennings and E. H. Norris. Most of the buildings designed by Fleming were either single or multiple family residences in Albuquerque. She also designed some dwellings in Socorro, Mountainair and surrounding New Mexico communities. Her Albuquerque designs are located in such prominent neighborhoods as Ridgecrest, Huning Highlands, Nob Hill, and University Heights. Fleming's simple residential designs took hold during the 1930s and 1940s when Albuquerque's economy was booming. Her straightforward stucco frame houses exemplified both regional and efficient features for the times. One of Fleming's more romantic and rustic designs is the "rock house" located at the comer of Marquette SE and Monte Vista SE. It features a steep pitched roof with gabled windows and rock facade. Fleming had one daughter and two sons with her husband James J. Fleming, who was an architectural draftsman. Her first marriage ended with the death of her husband and she later married Joseph A. Dunham. Beula Fleming died on March 10, 1980, at the age of 76. She carries the distinction of being the first female designer whose work is documented in the John Gaw Meem Archives of Southwestern Architecture. Her contributions to the architecture of Albuquerque's early neighborhoods left a rare legacy for a professional woman of the early twentieth century. 1 From University of New Mexico, General Library, Center for Southwest Research, Manuscript Collection Inventory

On February 28, 1962, the Alumni Memorial Chapel was dedicated as a memorial to the University’s war dead. This was John Gaw Meem’s last building on the campus. The chapel is located at the west end of Ash Mall, just southwest of Scholes Hall, Meem’s first campus building. Meem was the sole architect commissioned by the University from the 1930s until the late 1950s. According to Meem, the University’s architecture “looks not only to its present and future, but also to its artistic and historical heritage.” The Chapel was designed in 1954 but was not built until after Meem retired due to lack of funds. Chronologically, the Chapel fits within the Spanish-Pueblo Revival IIB period, but displays more characteristics of the IIA period. The Chapel has hand-carved wood details, flat sections, asymmetrical yet balanced forms, and multi-level sectional massing. It echoes many other pre-1940 Meem-designed chapels and is the only religious building owned by the University. Officially, the chapel is non-denominational. It serves as an excellent example of Meem’s religious and university architecture. It is eligible for the State Register under Criterion C as the work of master architect John Gaw Meem.

County Earth and Planetary Sciences SW Quadrant Bernalillo 5. Date of Survey: 3/22/2005

The Geology building was designed by Edward Holien of Meem, Zehner, Holien, and Associates. The materials for the building had to be approved by the National Production Authority (NPA), an organization set up by the federal government in order to control construction resources needed for the Korean War. The regents approved the excavation to begin in July 1951. The construction contract was to begin in October, but the NPA had yet to allocate the steel needed. This combined with the fact that the bonds had not been sold resulted in construction being delayed until January, 1952. It was completed later that year. In 1969, the building was renamed Northrop Hall after Stuart A. Northrop, who was chairman of the Geology Department for 33 years. An addition was made to the east wing in 1972. It was designed by William Buckley, who was chief draftsman at Meem’s firm during the period the original structure was designed. Buckley’s design is consistent with the original, and blends well with the building.

21. Other Significance or Information of Interest: (such as historical, legendary, structural, former ownership, etc.) Student leaders in the Freshman Orientation Program lead campus tours for freshman and their parents. At one point the leaders used to tell the story that the architects forgot to plan the stairs in the Riebsomer Wing and had to place them on the outside of the building. This upset the University Archivist who then began training the student leaders and telling them campus folklore rooted in fact.

Following WWII, enrollment climbed quickly and placed more demands on the already inadequate teaching and dormitory facilities. By 1951, Meem’s firm had plans for four buildings approved and a fifth nearly completed. Although Meem had no written campus plan, he grouped four of the buildings together with the idea that students would have most of their classes in these buildings and, therefore, the 10-minutes allotted for changing classes would be adequate. Each of the four buildings – Classroom Building, Biology, Geology, and Chemistry, was carefully sited to allow for future expansion. In a May 7, 1951 document, Meem describes Chemistry as “modern in design and conforms to the established regional style with softened piers and large glass areas.” He then describes the massing as progressively building up from the north to the main block on the south. The building terminated abruptly on the south side to allow for future expansion. In 1969, an addition was adjoined on the south end. The Meem portion of the building is named for Chemistry Professor John. D. Clark who served the University 1907- 1945. Clark taught chemistry in the Old Chemistry Building (#2) and was the first chemistry professor. The Reibsomer Wing addition was designed by Ferguson, Stevens, Mallory, and Pearl and was completed in December, 1969. It was named for Jesse L. Reibsomer, a chemistry professor at the University.

With the rapid increase in student enrollment following WWII, numerous temporary buildings were salvaged from Los Alamos, NM, for use on the campus. With no written master plan, Meem sited each building individually but with the overall idea of segmenting the campus into the zones we have today. In a 1951 preliminary description of Biology, Meem states, “The plan, due to existing temporary buildings, is a two story ‘L.’” Aerial photographs show that Meem built around two temporary barracks that were being used by Biology and Geology. The finished plans for Biology, later named Castetter Hall, were presented to the Regents and approved in April, 1951. Construction of three other buildings was also approved by the Regents at the same time. Steel, copper, and aluminum were still in short supply, but the National Production Authority also approved construction of the four buildings. Regents imposed a $10 building fee on students for the construction bond UNM issued for the projects. Biology was named for Edward F. Castetter who came to the University in 1928 as an Associate Professor of Biology and rose through the ranks to head of the department and Dean of the Graduate School by 1951. He became Academic Vice President in 1958 and remained in that position until his retirement in 1975. The Potter wing was added in 1967. The building houses classrooms, offices, labs, and two greenhouses.

Local Reference Number: for property): University of New Mexico UNM Building #20 Human Resources Central Campus 4. County: Popejoy House NW Quadrant Bernalillo 5. Date of Survey: 10/1/2005 Significance Summary Paragraph: 1801 Roma NE holds within its walls many illustrious associations. Foremost among them is the collaboration between architect John Gaw Meem and future University of New Mexico president, Thomas Lafayette Popejoy. Prior to designing the Popejoy residence Meem had designed homes on a much grander scale in Albuquerque such as Los Poblanos Ranch (1932) and its accompanying entertainment building, La Quinta (1934) built for Albert and Ruth Simms. Yet Meem succeeded in incorporating many of the character defining features that had become his trademark in invigorating the Spanish Pueblo Revival style. In the case of the Popejoy house, Meem also called upon Territorial Revival features such as the white pedimented lintels of the double hung sash windows reminiscent of the Greek Revival style of the 19th century. He further embellished these by the inclusion of hand turned details on a window grille also known as a reja to the east of the entry portal. Over the portal were traditional corbelled zapatas (the original design called for two vertical columns which were later eliminated). A hand carved element over the bathroom window lintel on the south façade reflected yet another territorial element. The design for the house included a raised parapet as in Pueblo architecture, with wooden canales. Stucco was applied via hand troweling and the exterior walls were battered in accordance with the Spanish Pueblo Revival style. The orientation of 1801 Roma NE to the street was consistent with its neighborhood although it failed to take advantage of some of the solar features more common in Meem's residential designs in less urban settings. At the time Meem was commissioned by Popejoy to undertake the design of the home at 1801 Roma NE he was already well established as a designer of both residential and public buildings. Records indicate that the Popejoys wanted a modest residence and had stringent budgetary considerations. Thus, although Meem's original design was estimated at $13,600 by the contractor K. H. House, the design for the residence was ultimately adjusted to come in at a cost of $8,500. After soliciting bids from five contracting firms, House was selected for his low bid of $9298 and worked with Bess and Tom Popejoy to reduce the costs even further. In fact, Meem reduced his architect's fee to 3/5 of the original 7% ($595) of the $8,500 cost of construction to a final adjusted figure of $357. Layout of the Popejoy home mirrored the asymmetry of many of the Meem designed residences, most closely that of the Stedman home designed by Meem in 1925. Meem's residential designs were known for the internal space following function. The lot for the Popejoy house was rectangular, approximately 150 feet long north to south and 98 feet wide east to west. The south façade and its entry faced onto Roma NE with a flagstone porch and off center door leading to the living room. On the west side of the living room was the guest room and its bath with the 2-car garage behind it at the northwest end of the house. The east side of the house held the family bedrooms, sleeping porch, dining room, kitchen and kitchen porch. North of the living room was a large screened porch opening onto a landscaped patio. The basement was only partially excavated under the east wing and provided a playroom, servants' quarters with bath, storage room, laundry and boiler room. The lack of a second story precluded the terraced massing common to many of the Spanish Pueblo Revival homes designed by Meem. However, hand troweled stucco mimicked the adobe walls. Under the requirements for inclusion on the National Register this building qualifies under Register Criteria C as documented in the Multiple Property Documentation Form for "Buildings Designed by John Gaw Meem" submitted by David Kammer, Ph.D. to the National Register of Historic Places. To wit: "Residences Description Appearing primarily in New Mexico and designed between 1925 and 1958, the houses of John Gaw Meem reflect the regional revival designs for which he is best known. Although their materials may vary, most include hollow tile or, less commonly, adobe brick construction. All exhibit character-defining details associated with the Spanish-Pueblo and Territorial Revival styles. Specific exterior details associated with the former style include adobe or adobe-colored wall surfaces, flat, often multi-planed roofs with rounded parapets, battered walls, double-hung wood sash or wood casement windows, sometimes recessed. Accompanying portales are often deeply recessed and have wood supports with corbel brackets. Decorative details include exposed wood lintels,

County: Popejoy House NW Quadrant Bernalillo 5. Date of Survey: October 1, 2005 Historic Preservation Office, New Mexico Department of Cultural Affairs projecting vigas and canales, and buttresses, often located near portales and entries. Specific exterior details associated with the latter style include flat roofs with brick coping often ornamented with dentil courses, windows and entries marked with pedimented lintels, and porticos, often deeply recessed, with square columns, often with capital moldings.

Significance The residences designed by John Gaw Meem represent some of the best examples of the articulation of the Spanish-Pueblo and Territorial Revival styles by the architect most closely associated with the popularization of those regional revival movements. Although Meem was not the initiator of these revivalist movements, he imbued them with both a range of details and a harmonious composition that served to popularize the styles. Distilled elements of both styles remained popular in southwestern domestic construction through the second half of the 20th century. Because so much of Meem's design was inspired by his study of examples of the region's historic building practices, his use of historic details and his ability to combine them with modern materials resulted in the masterful rendering of his residential projects. As such, these houses are significant under Criterion C as works of a master designer.

Registration Requirements To meet registration requirements, a house must have a high degree of architectural integrity with regard to the original location, design, materials, and workmanship so that it conveys a clear association with Meem as its designer. The exterior of the building must have the original features with a minimum of alterations. Any alterations must be evaluated as to their impact on the integrity of the design. Houses for which Meem designed only additions are not considered eligible unless the addition is substantial to the degree that its footprint comprises the greater portion of the building and the elevations of the addition are considered primary characteristics of the building.
