INTRODUCTION
This report recommends that the City Council uphold the appeal of the Landmarks
Commission's designation of 921 19th Street as a City Landmark. On October 11, 2004,
the Landmarks Commission filed the Findings & Determination designating the single-
family Craftsman-style bungalow and detached accessory garage as a City Landmark.
The property owner has appealed this decision. The appeal statement is contained in
Attachment A.
DISCUSSION
Landmarks DesiQnation Policy Considerations
The issue before the Council is an appeal of the landmark designation of the property at
921 19th Street. The appeal raises broader issues for Council discussion that have
policy implications regarding the application of the City's landmark designation criteria.
1
~A
JUL 1 2 2005
In the context of rendering a determination on this appeal, Council may wish to consider
how broadly the designation criteria in the ordinance should be applied.
As noted in SMMC Section 9.36.100 (a), a structure, improvement, natural feature or
an object may be designated a landmark if determined to meet one or more of the
following criteria:
(1) It exemplifies, symbolizes, or manifests elements of the cultural, social,
economic, political or architectural history of the City.
(2)
value.
It has aesthetic or artistic interest or value, or other noteworthy interest or
(3) It is identified with historic personages or with important events in local,
state or national history.
(4) It embodies distinguishing architectural characteristics valuable to a study
of a period, style, method of construction, or the use of indigenous materials or
craftsmanship, or is a unique or rare example of an architectural design, detail or
historical type valuable to such a study.
(5) It is a significant or a representative example of the work or product of a
notable builder, designer or architect.
(6) It has a unique location, a singular physical characteristic, or is an
established and familiar visual feature of a neighborhood, community or the City.
It is the responsibility of the Landmarks Commission, or Council on appeal, to make
findings under at least one of the above-mentioned criteria in order to approve the
Landmark Designation of a structure. If the criteria are applied too broadly, structures
with varying levels of significance could be deemed eligible for landmark designation.
That result could undermine confidence in the standards and process.
2
The City's Historic Resources Inventory currently identifies a total of 1,324 properties.
Of this total, 928 buildings are historic district eligible. The significance of these
buildings is linked to their context and grouping, which may demonstrate a particular
architectural form or development pattern. The City's Historic Resources Inventory
identifies a much smaller number, 396, as individually eligible for recognition as a City
Landmark. This evaluation is based on a structure's architectural integrity and the
extent to which its character defining features have been preserved.
The subject Craftsman-style bungalow and accessory garage is located in a portion of
the City that was last surveyed in 1992-1993 for the City's Phase 3 Historic Resources
Inventory. The Phase 3 survey did not identify this bungalow as being eligible for
individual landmark status or as a contributor to a potential historic district.
Consequently, the subject bungalow is not listed on the City's Historic Resources
Inventory.
BACKGROUND
The Landmarks Commission initially reviewed the 921 19th Street property on July 12,
2004 as a demolition permit application. At that hearing, the Landmarks Commission
filed an application for Landmark designation of the residence and garage. The
Landmarks Commission held a public hearing on September 13, 2004. Staff
recommended against the designation. The Commission voted to approve the
designation, adopting the findings and determination on October 11, 2004. The
September 13, 2004 staff report and the Landmarks Commission's determination are
contained in Attachments C and B, respectively; Under the provisions of the Landmarks
3
Ordinance, the City Council may grant the appeal or uphold the decision of the
Landmarks Commission in whole or in part and designate the Craftsman-style bungalow
residence at 921 19th Street as a Landmark based upon the Landmarks Ordinance
criteria contained in SMMC Section 9.36.100.
Property Description
Constructed in 1923, the subject residence located at 921 19th Street is a typical, one-
story wood-framed Craftsman style bungalow. The property also contains a detached,
two-car garage, with alley accessed from 19th Court alley. The bungalow is capped by a
low-pitched, cross-gabled roof and narrow clapboard siding. The primary elevation
includes a grouping of four wood-framed fixed windows, each with four-square upper
lights. There is a small entry porch area flanked by large wood-framed casement
windows. Above the entry is a front-gabled hood supported by carved brackets. A
recent addition to the rear northwest corner of the house is not visible from the street.
The detached garage was constructed together with the house and also reflects
Craftsman style elements. The residence and garage have generally been well
maintained over the years with minimal alterations and appear from both the street and
alley to be in good condition.
APPEAL SUMMARY
In the appeal filed on October 20, 2004, the appellant contends that the designation
should be disapproved because the property does not satisfy the criteria for
designation. The appellant asserts that the findings and determination are
4
rationalizations of the Commission's action and contradict the City's historic resource
consultant's report and the staff analysis and recommendation.
ANAL YSIS
As the appellant states, and as detailed in the staff report provided for the Landmarks
Commission hearing, staff recommends against designation of this property. This
assessment, supported by the City's preservation consultants PCR Services
Corporation (PCR), found that the property at 921 19th Street, while intact and well
maintained, is a typical wood-framed Craftsman style bungalow property. It is not an
exceptional example of a California bungalow with Craftsman influences within the
architectural history of the City.
The analysis further determined that the property did not meet any of the six (6)
designation criteria. It was noted that, because the bungalow was constructed in 1923, it
could be considered an established or visual feature of a neighborhood. However, this
criterion, 9.36.100(a)(6), is used for properties which have "a unique location, a singular
physical characteristic, or an established and familiar visual feature of a neighborhood,
community of the City." For example, the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium meets this
criterion as it has a unique location within the Civic Center, at the bend of Main Street.
Its grand scale, and unique design with futuristic pylons, commands attention as one
travels south along Main Street. The Civic Auditorium is also a familiar and integral part
of the Civic Center complex. The Civic Auditorium is, thus, an important visual
monument in the City of Santa Monica, and is clearly an established and familiar visual
feature of the City. In contrast, the property at 921 19th Street does not have a location
5
or singular physical characteristic that makes it unique. Simply by virtue of having
occupied this property since 1923, the property cannot be found to meet this criterion.
The property is an example of a modest California bungalow exhibiting typical
Craftsman elements. This building style was widespread in the late 1910s and much of
the 1920s in Santa Monica and the rest of Southern California. While the house
displays features of the style, there are many more superior, representative examples of
this architectural style elsewhere in this neighborhood and in other parts of the City.
This assessment is confirmed by the context statement that resulted from the Phase 3
Historic Resources Inventory. This statement describes the residential development
pattern of the subject property's neighborhood. This area of the City began to develop in
the 1920s, containing residential, commercial and industrial uses. The Inventory
determined that the most intact street in the neighborhood was 22nd Street. Individual
properties that did not possess a strong historical development context were not
identified. In addition, the Historic Resource Inventory recognizes an individual property
if it contains individual or unique characteristics. The landmark designation analysis
considered this source material and concluded that this property appears not to have
been listed because it does not contain substantial context, and is not individually
significant. Further, when reviewed within the current context of the City's older housing
stock, the property is not individually significant as many better representative examples
of this development type remain in the City.
6
This designation application was filed by the Landmarks Commission in response to the
demolition permit required for development of the property. Several community
members who spoke in favor of the designation expressed their appreciation for the
long-standing and well-maintained bungalow in the neighborhood. Community members
also expressed concern about the proposed development of condominiums on the site.
However, if the Landmark designation process appears to overstate a building's
contribution to the City's cultural heritage and is viewed as being utilized as a strategy to
prevent development, it may devalue the cultural and historical significance of other.
Landmarks that have been designated using appropriate application of the criteria.
Landmarks Commission Action
The Landmarks Commission found that the Craftsman style bungalow and detached
garage structure at 921 19th Street meets two of the six Landmark criteria. The
Commission found the subject residence reflects many of the features that identify the
California Craftsman style bungalow, an architectural form that defined Southern
California's development in the 1910s - 1920s. The Commission based its designation
primarily with its association to the bungalow building type, and its importance to the
City's development.
Conclusion
The property at 921 19th Street is a typical bungalow property and, while it has been
well-maintained over the years, the architecture is not particularly noteworthy. Many
other architecturally superior examples of this building type remain throughout the City.
While this property is a fairly intact and well-crafted bungalow type, there are many
7
superior examples to inform a study of this style, such as the following designated City
Landmarks: 315 10th Street, 142 Adelaide Drive, 2424 4th Street, and 502 Raymond
Avenue. In addition, there are many superior examples of the Craftsman style
bungalow building type designated as contributing structures within the Third Street
Historic District. Further, the property has very little context to provide a meaningful
example of this building type and its influence on the City's development patterns. As
noted in the Historic Resources Inventory, the most intact street in the neighborhood is
22nd Street which possesses a historical context of several original structures. A careful
review reflects that the property at 921 19th Street does not contain substantial context,
and is not individually significant.
Use of the Landmark Designation process to halt development rather than as means to
protect and recognize the City's cultural heritage is a significant policy choice and a
departure from widely accepted standards. In determining if this typical bungalow and
accessory structure merits Landmarks designation, the Council should consider the
threshold for determining the level of historic significance. Specifically, should the
buildings of modest architectural quality be recognized and protected as a City
Landmark, the City's highest level of designation? Similar structures can be found and
as a result, similar criteria can be broadly applied throughout the City.
PUBLIC NOTIFICATION
Notice of this public hearing was published in the California Section of the Los Angeles
Times and mailed to all owners and residential and commercial tenants of property
8
located within a 300 foot radius of the project at least 10 days prior to the hearing. A
copy of the notice is contained in Attachment D.
BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACT
The recommendation presented in this report does not have any budget or fiscal impact.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Council uphold the appeal and overturn the Landmarks
Commission's decision to designate 921 19th Street as a City Landmark.

OF THE LANDMARKS COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA IN THE MATTER OF
THE DESIGNATION OF A LANDMARK
DESIGNATION OF LANDMARK
FOR THE STRUCTURE LOCATED AT
921 19th Street
LANDMARKS COMMISSION HEARING
LC-04-LM-006
October 11 , 2004
SECTION I. An application was filed by the Landmarks Commission on July 12, 2004,
to designate the property located at 921 19th Street as a City Landmark. The Landmarks
Commission of the City of Santa Monica, having held a Public Hearing on September
13, 2004, hereby makes the following findings regarding both the primary residence and
accessory garage structure at the property located at 921 19th Street:
(1) It exemplifies, symbolizes, or manifests elements of the cultural, social, economic,
political or architectural history of the City.
The property at 921 19th Street exemplifies and manifests aspects of the social and
architectural history of the City Of Santa Monica. The primary structure on the
subject property was constructed in 1923 and is a well-preserved, finely detailed
Craftsman-style California bungalow. The residence reflects many of the features
that identify the Craftsman style, including its low-pitched and cross-gabled roof,
extended roof eaves, exposed rafter tails and beam-ends, clapboard wood siding,
wood framed windows, and raised front porch area. The accessory garage structure
located in the rear yard was designed and constructed with the primary residence.
The garage is notable because it exhibits many of the same architectural elements
the primary residence features, and exemplifies application of the Craftsman style to
accessory structures through el~ments such as a front-gabled roof with deep
,&~
~. 0013
overhangs, exposed rafters, narrow clapboard siding, and vertical vents in the gable
peak. The subject property is located within a portion of the original town site of
Santa Monica that remained undeveloped until the early 20th century. This bungalow
residence retains strong structural and architectural integrity and exhibits a high level
of craftsmanship. As such, it is an exemplary representation of the City's prevailing
residential development pattern during the first quarter of the 20th century.
Construction of bungalow residences had its genesis in southern California, and was
widely used in Santa Monica and throughout the region. Bungalow residences
helped address the community's growing need for affordable housing during the
1910s and 1920s. Because the Craftsman-bungalow at 921 19th Street has been
carefully maintained and remains in excellent condition, it stands as a strong
manifestation of this important aspect of Santa Monica's history. Furthermore, this
residence is one of only three extant structures constructed during the 1920s still
remaining on the 900 block of 19th Street and it is the most architectural-significant,
finely detailed, and highly intact example of the neighborhood's early development.
(2) It embodies distinguishing architectural characteristics valuable to a study of a
period, style, method of construction, or the use of indigenous materials or
craftsmanship, or is a unique or rare example of an architectural design, detail or
historical type valuable to such a study.
The overall quality and architectural context of the subject property, including its
form, massing, materials, workmanship, and unique design elements are valuable to
a study of the Craftsman style as it was applied to residential development in Santa
Monica during the 1920s. The primary residence is an excellent, highly intact
example of late Craftsman-style bungalow architecture in Santa Monica during the
1920s. The bungalow exhibits a number of character-defining features of this style
including its low-pitched and cross-gabled roof, extended roof eaves, maintained
vents in the gable peak, exposed rafter tails and beam-ends, clapboard wood siding,
wood framed windows, and its raised front porch area. The accessory garage
~~ (Jlo14
structure also exhibits many of the same architectural elements of the primary
residence including a front-gabled roof with deep overhangs, exposed rafters,
narrow clapboard siding, and vertical vents in the gable peak. The front fa9ade of the
residence is in pristine condition and shows little alteration beyond maintenance-
related activities. The front-gabled hood over the primary fa9ade entry door is
supported by carved brackets with a decorative cut-out and squared knobs. This
architectural element of the structure exhibits a high level of craftsmanship and is a
unique feature of this bungalow. There is also a grouping of four, original, double
hung sash windows each with four square upper lights on the primary fayade that
remain intact and in excellent condition. A projecting squared bay with a window
and well maintained red brick chimney are present on the south elevation of the
bungalow. These distinguishing features of late Craftsman-style architecture are
strongly expressed in the bungalow residence at 921 19th Street and are valuable to
a study of this prevalent style during the development of Santa Monica in the 1920s.
Each and all of the findings and determinations are based on the competent and
substantial evidence, both oral and written, contained in the entire record relating to the
Project. All summaries of information contained herein or in the findings are based on
the substantial evidence in the record. The absence of any particular fact from any
such summary is not an indication that a particular finding is not based in part on that
fact.

Public Hearing to Consider a Landmark Designation Application
PROPERTY OWNER: 19th Street Townhomes, LLC
APPLICANT: Landmarks Commission
SUBJECT:
INTRODUCTION
On July 12, 2004, the Landmarks Commission filed an application for Landmark
designation of the subject property. The property contains a one-story, Craftsman-style
residence and a one-story garage accessed from the alley. This property has not been
previously identified in the City's Historic Resources Inventory.
BACKGROUND
The subject property is located on Block 14, Lot 17 of Tract 1351 in the City of Santa
Monica. The property was included in the survey conducted for the Phase 3 Historic
Resources Inventory in 1992-1993.
The property owner filed a demolition permit for the existing structure on June 23, 2004.
The demolition permit was considered at the Landmarks Commission's July 12, 2004
meeting, at which time the Commission filed this application for Landmark designation.

~. LJv18
PUBLIC NOTIFICATION
Pursuant to SMMC Section 9.36.120, notice of the public hearing was mailed to all
owners and residential and commercial tenants of property within a 300-foot radius of
the project and was published in the "California" section of The Los Angeles Times at
least ten consecutive calendar days prior to the hearing. A copy of the notice is included
as Attachment C.
The property owner was notified of this application and hearing date by mail on July 13,
2004.
ANAL YSIS
Property Information
The subject property measures 50' x 160' and is located on the east side of 19th Street
between Idaho Avenue and Washington Avenue. The 1372 square-foot residence is
set back approximately 15 feet from the front property line, with the entrance on a
slightly recessed plane. The property also contains a detached, two-car garage, with
alley access from 19th Court. The property has generally been well maintained over the
years with minimal alterations and appears from both the street and alley to be in good
condition.
Constructed in 1923, this was one of at least 16 single-family dwellings erected along
the 900 block of 19th Street in the years prior to 1950. Although the neighborhood was
substantially built-up by the onset of World War II, a marked change in character
occurred in the mid-1950s and early 1960s, when older buildings began to be replaced
by modern apartment buildings. Today, much of the area has been in-filled with multi-
story condominiums, with older housing stock usually isolated or clustered in small
groups. Of the original pre-war houses, only three extant properties were constructed
in the 1920s (918 in 1924; 921, the subject property, in 1923; and 944 in 1923). One
extant property, a small bungalow court (953 19th Street), was constructed in 1939. All
other properties located along the 900 block of 19th Street were developed or
redeveloped after World War II.
The context statement that resulted from the survey identifying properties for the
Historic Resources Inventory in this area (see Attachment E) noted that the initial
residential development pattern was mostly set in the 1920s, at the time this property
was developed. Area 5, which includes the subject property, contains residential,
commercial and industrial uses. For the residential portion, the survey focused on the
most intact street in the neighborhood, 22nd Street, and did not recognize individual
properties without a strong context of other original structures. In addition, the Inventory
18
JHf (J\19
will recognize an individual property if it contains individual or unique characteristics.
The property at 921 19th Street is a typical bungalow property and, while intact, is not
particularly noteworthy. It appears this property was not listed because it does not
contain substantial context, and does not appear individually significant.
Architectural Description
This is a typical one-story wood-framed Craftsman style bungalow with detached
garage. The bungalow features a low-pitched, cross-gabled roof and narrow clapboard
siding. Roof elements include overhanging eaves, exposed rafter tails and beam-ends,
carved bargeboards, and a vertical slatted vent in the front-gable peak. The primary
(west) elevation features include a grouping of four wood-framed fixed windows each
with four-square upper lights and a small entry porch area flanked by large wood-
framed casement windows. All windows are framed by flat wood surrounds. Above the
entry is a front-gabled hood supported by carved brackets. A squared bay with
windows on all faces projects from the south elevation, which also contains a brick
chimney that is visible from the street. A recent (1999) addition to the rear northwest
corner of the house is not visible from the street.
The garage was constructed together with the house and also reflects the Craftsman
style, with eave overhangs, exposed rafters, narrow clapboard siding, windows with
wood surrounds and vertical vents in the gable peak. This garage, which fronts the 19th
Court alley, has been well maintained and is also intact.
As mentioned above, while well maintained and reasonably intact, this is a fairly typical
bungalow property. While the property does appear to have Craftsman-style elements,
19
. v... I.' 4'"\
ll1 ...- .' '; c.. 0
it is not a particularly significant, unique or exceptional example of Craftsman style
bungalow architecture in Santa Monica.
Historic Associations
According to the building permits, A. Wallace Jamieson was the initial
owner/architect/builder of the subject property. City directories indicate that Mr.
Jamieson, listed variously as a draftsman; construction engineer; carpenter; and
mechanic, and his wife Millie E. Jamieson, occupied the residence from construction
until at least 1959. For at least a few years in the late 1940s, Robert W. Jamieson
(probably their son), a musician, resided at the address. Rosemary Jamieson
(daughter), a librarian with the Santa Monica Public Library, appears in city directories
at the address from 1952 and apparently lived in the house until at least 1997, keeping
the subject property in the extended Jamieson family for at least 74 years.
Research has not indicated that the family was associated with important events in
local, state or national history.
Landmarks Ordinance
The Landmarks Ordinance requires an application for Landmark designation to be
scheduled for consideration within 65 days of the date on which the application was
deemed complete. This time limitation may be waived with written permission from the
applicant/owner of the property.
The Landmarks Ordinance requires the Commission to review the building's eligibility as
a landmark based on the six criteria discussed below. The Commission may designate
20
~ W ,I. ~ 2 1
a property as a landmark if it meets one or more of these criteria. If designated, the
Commission may consider applications for Certificates of Appropriateness for any
proposed alteration, restoration, construction, removal, relocation, or demolition, in
whole or in part, to the Landmark structure or parcel.
The designation criteria, established in SMMC Section 9.36.100(a) and the statements
of significance for 921 19th Street are as follows:
(1) It exemplifies, symbolizes, or manifests elements of the cultural, social, economic,
political or architectural history of the City.
The subject property is a typical example of a California bungalow with Craftsman
influences of which many other examples exist in the residential neighborhoods east of
17th Street in the City of Santa Monica. Additionally, two other similar California
bungalow-type dwellings from the same time period are located on the 900 block of 19th
Street. Although the subject property reflects many of the features that are typical of the
style and period, the residence does not rise to the level of representing an exceptional
example of a California bungalow with Craftsman influences within the architectural
history of the City. Therefore, the subject property does not appear to satisfy this
criterion.
(2) It has aesthetic or artistic interest or value, or other noteworthy interest or value.
Though a good example of a California bungalow with Craftsman influences, the subject
property does not articulate a particular or noteworthy concept of design sufficient
enough to express an aesthetic ideal beyond that represented by other properties of the
same style in the area. Therefore, the subject property does not appear to possess
sufficient aesthetic or artistic value necessary for designation under this criterion.
(3) It is identified with historic personages or with important events in local, state or
national history.
Although the extended Jamieson family occupied the dwelling for approximately 74
years, current research did not reveal information to link the subject property with any
historic personages or with any important events in local, state, or national history.
Therefore, it does not appear to satisfy this criterion.
(4) It embodies distinguishing architectural characteristics valuable to a study of a
period, style, method of construction, or the use of indigenous materials or
craftsmanship, or is a unique or rare example of an architectural design, detail or
historical type valuable to such a study.
21
~ tIS' (j l' '2 2
The subject property is a representative example of a California bungalow with typical
Craftsman influences that is reflective of a particular architectural style and historical
period. However, the subject property is not considered a unique or rare example of an
architectural design, detail, or historical type since other comparable examples exist
within the neighborhood and throughout the City. For example, a similar dwelling
constructed in 1924 is located diagonally across (northwest) from the subject property at
918 19th Street that is similar in type, style, and level of physical integrity to the subject
property. Although the subject property also exhibits a high degree of integrity, it does
not reflect sufficient architectural context to distinguish its architectural character as a
California bungalow from other similar dwellings in the immediate neighborhood or
throughout the City. Therefore, the subject property does not appear to satisfy this
criterion.
(5) It is a significant or a representative example of the work or product of a notable
builder, designer or architect.
The design and construction of the subject property is attributed to the owner, A.
Wallace Jamieson, a draftsman and carpenter. No information regarding Jamieson was
found during the current research process to suggest he was a notable builder,
designer, or architect. Hence, the property does not appear to satisfy this criterion.
(6) It has a unique location, a singular physical characteristic, or is an established and
familiar visual feature of a neighborhood, community or the City.
Application of this criterion does not indicate that the resource has a unique location or
singular physical characteristic that makes it unique. It is located along the east (north)
side of 19th Street between Washington Avenue and Idaho Avenue, adjacent to other
residential properties. By virtue of the fact that this building has been in the
neighborhood since its construction in 1923, it has become an established feature of the
area; however, this application of this criterion is weak in that this conclusion could be
made regarding any structure present for this amount of time.
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
The subject property is a typical example of a bungalow property, a popular building
type in Santa Monica and the southern California region throughout the first quarter of
the twentieth century and thereafter. As a result, many of the streets here in Santa
Monica still reflect the popularity of bungalow architecture, for example, the 900 block of
22nd Street as noted in the City's Historic Resources Inventory, among others. There
are also many superior individual examples of Craftsman style bungalow architecture.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Description of site, note any major alterations and dates of alterations
The property at 921 19th Street is situated along the east side of 19th Street between Idaho
Avenue and Washington Avenue. It is located on Block 14, Lot 17 of Tract 1351 in the
City of Santa Monica. The property is comprised of a modest bungalow and a detached
garage set within a 50 foot by 160 foot parcel. The bungalow is centrally placed at the front
(west) end of the parcel with its primary (front) elevation facing 19th Street, while the small
detached garage is situated at the parcel's southeast corner (rear) with access from a narrow
unnamed alley. The property is sited on a flat lot within a residential neighborhood
comprised of both single-family and multi-family residences. The subject property has not
been previously identified in the City's Historical Resources Inventory.
This one-story wood-framed Craftsman style bungalow, rectangular in plan, is capped by a
low-pitched, cross-gabled roof with exterior walls sheathed in narrow clapboard siding. Roof
elements include deep overhanging eaves, exposed rafter tails and beam-ends, carved
bargeboards, and a vertical slatted vent in the front-gable peak. Notable features along the
primary (west) elevation include a grouping of four elongated wood-framed fixed windows
each with four square upper lights and a small entry porch area flanked by large wood-
framed casement windows. All windows are framed by flat wood surrounds. A front-gabled
hood supported by carved brackets, pierced by a decorative cut -out, and embellished with a
pair of squared knobs shades the front entry. Concrete steps bordered by stout, square-
shaped red brick piers lead to the raised porch area and glazed entrance door. Located along
the south (secondary) elevation are a projecting squared bay punctuated by fenestration and
an exterior red brick chimney. A recent (1999) addition to the rear northwest corner of the
house is not visible from the street.
Located on the southeast corner of the parcel behind the dwelling is a me-story detached
two-car garage also designed in the Craftsman idiom. The wood-frame garage is accessed via
a narrow back alley that runs along the east side of the property. Capped by a front-gabled
roof, this structure features many of the same elements as the dwelling including deep
overhangs, exposed rafters, narrow clapboard siding, and vertical vents in the gable peak.
There are three building permits on file with the City. including the original permit dating
from 1923. The building permit was issued to A.W. Jamieson, the property owner at the
time, for the construction of a dwelling and garage. According to the permit the residence
and garage were built at a cost of $3,500 and $200, respectively, with the owner listed as
architect and builder of both structures. In 1938, Jamieson received a building permit for
the enlargement of a room costing approximately $200. A later permit from 1999 notes the

addition of a bathroom at the rear of the dwelling for an estimated cost of $9,000 by then
owner Mayer Aframian.
According to Sanborn maps minimal alterations to the property have occurred over the years.
Upon visual inspection, the buildings appear to be in good condition with few alterations
visible from the public right-of-way.
SURVEY EVALUATION
S1?tement of Mc:Qilectural Significance
The property at 921 19th Street was constructed in 1923, and is a typical example of a
modest California bungalow with Craftsman influences once commonly seen in residential
neighborhoods throughout Santa Monica and the Los Angeles region. A detached garage of
similar design is located at the rear (east) of the lot The bungalow had its genesis in
southern California, and was widely used in Santa Monica and throughout the region.
During the first quarter of the twentieth century, bungalows were a popular building type in
newly developed suburban areas. Because of their relative economy, bungalows answered a
growing need for affordable housing during the 1910s and 1920s. Many of the streets here
in Santa Monica and elsewhere reflect the popularity of bungalow architecture. Square or
rectangular shaped cottages with one to one-and-one half stories and rectilinear porches
typify the bungalow form. To this basic form, architects introduced elements of the
Craftsman, Spanish, Stick, Colonial Revival. and even Japanese styles to produce a unique
building style. The standard bungalow is characterized by simple, horizontal, and craft-
oriented natural materials. Common elements of the style include exposed roof beams and
rafter tails: battered (tapered) or square porch posts: rectangular shaped windows. usually
sash over sash; shingle or clapboard siding; gabled roofs; and simple wood frame surrounds.
The features on the subject property that are typical of the style and period include its
general scale and massing; low-pitched, cross-gabled roof; overhanging eaves with exposed
rafter tails and beam-ends: clapboa~'d siding; wood-framed fenestration with plain surrounds;
and' casement and double hung sash windows. Additionally, the Craftsman influence is
evident in the grouping of four elongated, fixed windows along the west elevation and
barge boards under the extended eaves. The subject property retains a high degree of
integrity to convey its particular property type, building style, and period of significance.
Statement of Historical Importance
Santa Monica. In 1875, the original townsite of Santa Monica was surveyed, including all
the land extending from Colorado Street on the south to Montana on the north, and from
26th Street on the east to the Pacific Ocean on the west. Between 1893 and the 1920s, the
community operated as a tourist attraction, visited by mostly wealthy patrons. Those areas
just outside of the incorporated city limits were semi-rural in setting and were populated
with scattered residences. After the advent of the automobile in the 1920s, Santa Monica
experienced a significant building boom, with homes being constructed in the tracts north of
Montana and east of Seventh Street for year-round residents. A commercial district was
established between Wilshire and Colorado, at Second, Third, and Fourth Streets. Also in
921 19'" Street
City Landmark Assessment Report

the 1920s, Santa Monica saw the arrival of large companies, such as Merle Norman
Cosmetics and Douglas Aircraft. In the years immediately prior to America's entry into
World War II, Santa Monica's development escalated as Douglas Aircraft received increasing
numbers of government contracts. After the war, when southern California was flooded
with returning veterans and their families seeking homes, the demand for housing continued
to be high in Santa Monica, and apartment construction in particular escalated.
900 Block of 19th Street and Vicinity. The neighborhood in which the subject property is
located, while part of the original townsite of Santa Monica, stayed unimproved except for
widely scattered dwellings until the early twentieth century. Gradually, pockets of hipped
roof cottages typical of the first years of the twentieth century were constructed, then were
superseded by the quintessential southern California home from the period just after the
turn-of-the-century to the early 1920s: the Craftsman bungalow. In the latter part of the
1920s, residential development in the area adopted a new approach predicated on revival
styles of architecture that included Spanish Colonial Revival, English Revival, Colonial
Revival and other styles. The introduction of courtyard housing also occurred at this time in
and around the neighborhood. Remnants of several of these phases of Santa Monica's
residential development are still evident in the vicinity of the subject property.
This subject property was constructed in 1923 and was one of at least 16 single-family
dwellings erected along the 900 block of 19th Street in the years prior to 1950. Of these,
only three exta,nt properties were constructed in the 1920s (918 in 1924; 921, the subject
property, in 1923; and 944 in 1923). One extant property, a small bungalow court (953 19m
Street), was constructed in 1939. All other properties located along the 900 block of 19th
Street were built after World War II.
The property at 921 19th Street retains good integrity; however, while it was constructed
during a particular phase of the neighborhood's residential development and is reflective of a
specific property type, it is in no way architecturally distinctive, repeating the themes which
characterize literally thousands of houses built during the first quarter of the twentieth
century.
Construction of residential dwellings in the area continued throughout most of the 1920s
and much of the 1930s, spreading a few blocks to the north, south, and east. Although the
neighborhood was substantially built-up by the onset of World Will.' II, a marked change in
character occurred in the mid-1950s and early 1960s, when older buildings began to be
replaced by modern apartment buildings. Today, much of the area has been in-filled with
large, multi-story condominiums, with older housing stock usually isolated or clustered in
small groups. The subject property is one such extant example of the older housing stock,
which remains today in the neighborhood.
Person(s) of Historical Importance
According to the building permits, A. Wallace Jamieson was the initial
owner/architect/builder of the subject property. City directories indicate that Mr. Jamieson,
listed variously as a draftsman; construction engineer; carpenter; and mechanic, and his wife
92119"Street
City Landmark Assessment Report
page 3
~. tiL29
Millie E. Jamieson, occupied the residence from construction until at least 1959. For at least
a few years in the late 1940s, Robert W. Jamieson (probably their son), a musician, resided at
the address. Rosemary Jamieson (daughter), a librarian with the Santa Monica Public
Library, appears in city directories at the address from 1952 until at least 1961. She is later
listed as the owner/tenant on an electrical permit application dated July 1997. Apparently,
the subject property remained in the extended Jamieson family for at least 74 years. In
concluding the background research, the data did not reveal any information on the
Jamieson's to indicate historical significance or notability. Therefore, it does not appear that
the property is associated with any person or persons of historical importance.
Statement of other significance
No other evidence was discovered in current research of the property to indicate other
significance.
Is the structure representative of a style in the City that is no longer prevalent?
The subject property is an example of a modest California bungalow exhibiting Craftsman
elements typical of the idiom. The style was widespread in the late 1910s and much of the
1920s here in Santa Monica and the rest of southern California. Though the house exhibits
features of the style, other extant representative examples of this architectural style can still be
found elsewhere in this neighborhood (for example at 918 and 944 19th Street) and in other
parts of the City. Therefore, it is not considered a structure representative of a style in the
City that is no longer prevalent.
Does the structure contribute to a potential historic district?
It does not appear that there is a potential historic district in the area surrounding this
property. The area has been severely compromised by the in-fill of post-World War II,
multi-story apartment buildings and condominium complexes. Much of the housing stock
from the first quarter of the twentieth century has been demolished.
CONCLUSION
In summary, based on current research and the above assessment, the property located at 921 19th
Street appears to meet only one of the City of Santa Monica's Criteria for individual City Landmark
status, Criterion 6, that of an established and familiar visual feature of the neighborhood. The
subject property was evaluated according to the following statutory criteria:
Landmark Criteria:
9.36.100(a)(1) It exemplifies, symbolizes, or manifests elements of the cultural, social, economic.
political or architectural history of the City.
The subject property is a typical example of a California bungalow with Craftsman
influences of which many other examples exist in the residenlial neighborhoods east of 1 th
Street in the City of Santa Monica. Additionally, two other similar California bungalow-
921 19~ Street
City Landmark Assessment Report
page 4
~~. OL30
type dwellings from the same time period are located on the 900 block of 19th Street.
Although the subject property reflects many of the features tbat are typical of the style and
period, the residence does not rise to the level of representing an exceptional example of a
California bungalow with Craftsman influences within the architectural history of the City.
Therefore, the subject property does not appear to satisfy this criterion.
9.36.100 (a) (2) It has aesthetic or artistic interest or value, or other noteworthy interest or value.
Though a typical example of a California bungalow with Craftsman influences, the subject
property does not articulate a particular or noteworthy concept of design sufficient enough
to express an aesthetic ideal beyond that represented by other properties of the same style in
the area. Therefore, the subject property does not appear to possess sufficient aesthetic or
artistic value necessary for designation under this criterion.
9.36.100(a)(3) It is identified with historic personages or with important events in bcal, state or
national history.
Although the extended Jamieson family occupied the dwelling for approximately 74 years,
current research did not reveal information to link the subject property with any historic
personages or with any important events in local, state, or national history. Therefore, it
does not appear to satisfy this criterion.
9.36. 100 (a) (4) It embodies distinguishing architectural characteristics valuable to a study of a period,
style, method of construction, or the use of indigenous materials or craftsmanship, or is a unique or
rare example of an architectural design, detail or historical type valuable to such a study.
The subject property is a representative example of a California bungalow with typical
Craftsman influences that is reflective of a particular architectural style and historical period.
The modestly sized dwelling incorporates a number of features of the idiom including an
asymmetrical fa~ade; low-pitched cross-gabled roof; clapboard siding; wood framed windows
with simple surrounds; exposed rafter tails and beam-ends; overhanging eaves; and a front
porch. However, the subject property is not considered a unique or rare example of an
architectural design, detail, or historical type since other comparable examples exist within
the neighborhood and throughout the City. For example, a similar dwelling constructed in
1924 is located diagonillly across (northwest) from the subject property ilt 918 19th Street
that is similar in type, style, and level of physical integrity to the subject property. Although
the subject property also exhibits a high degree of integrity, it does not reflect sufficient
architectural context to distinguish its architectural character as a California bungalow from
other similar dwellings in the immediate neighborhood or throughout the City. Therefore,
the subject property does not appear to satisfy this criterion.
9.36. 100 (a) (5) It is a significant or a representative example of the work or product of a notable
builder, designer or architect.
The design and construction of the subject property is attributed to the owner, A. Wallace
Jamieson, a draftsman and carpenter. No information regarding Jamieson was found during
921 19" Street
City Landmark Assessrneut Repun

r; If l.d- ,3 J
the current research process to suggest he was a notable builder, designer, or architect.
Hence, the property does not appear to satisfy this criterion.
9.36.100(a)(6) It has a unique location, a singular physical characteristic, or is an established and
familiar visual feature of a neighborhood, community or the City.
Application of this criterion does not indicate that the resource has a unique location or
singular physical characteristic that makes it unique. It is situated along the north side of the
900 block of 19th Street between Washington Avenue and Idaho Avenue near other extant
dwellings constructed in the mid-1920s (located at 918 and 944 19th Street). Therefore,
applying this criterion to dwellings located on the 900 block of 19th Street would suggest that
there are three residences, including the subject property, that have become familiar visual
features of the neighborhood since the mid-1920s. Nonetheless, by virtue of the fact that the
subject property has been in the neighborhood since its construction in 1923, it may be
considered an established feature of the area potentially satisfying this criterion.

The property owner was not present at the meeting. However, Ms. Bar-EI stated
that she spoke to the owner who was not opposed to the designation and was
interested in more detailed information. Due to an error in the City's record, the
letter was sent to another address and direct contact was made on Thursday.
Commissioner Lehrer stated that this property is generally considered to be an
iconic building in the city. It is very meritorious and it is time to move ahead.
Commissioner Kaplan stated that the process of selecting a building before it is
in danger is a positive one. She hopes we can continue with the designation with
the owner's approval.
Chairperson Genser stated that he was a little reluctant to proceed because the
owner was unable to attend due to short notice. He stated that this building is
literally a landmark and warrants consideration. He agreed that this process is
proactive and not reactive.
Commissioner Berley stated that this building clearly establishes through its
stature that it is the center of downtown Santa Monica. He is very much in favor
of a nomination for landmark status.

~!!I l.;\..<43
The following members of the public addressed the Commission: Bea Nemlaha,
property owner, Ralph Mechur, architect, Anne Troutman and Adam Finkel.
Staff report presented by Ms. Bar-EI.
Commissioner Berley questioned the metal fascia and asked about the material
used for the new garage door.
Ms. Nemlaha stated that the garage door would be made of wood with
translucent glass.
Commissioner Kaplan commented on a rooftop deck on a landmark structure.
She also commented that she wasn't sure if modern lighting on a historic
building, that is part of a historic district, was appropriate in that it will change the
character of the property from the street.
Commissioner Lehrer stated that what's important in the historic district is the
unity and cohesion of all the buildings as a whole from the public right-of-way.
Most of the garage as proposed in the design was fine and anyway won't be
seen unless you are up on the property. However, she was opposed to the
proposed use of glass and lighting in the garage. Another concern was that the
garage door provides a historical anchor, so there should be more articulation of
the door. She felt that vertical wood boards, as staff recommended, would
maintain the historical roots of what was there before, and the historical pattern
on the street. Overall, she agreed that the structure is a wonderful enhancement
to the property.
Chair Pro Tem Fresco stated that the accessory structures on the street were
really more like barns than garages. She didn't have a problem with the use of
some glass. But she would like to see a strong reference to the barn feeling, in
that this garage should be compatible with other structures in the neighborhood.
Commissioner Berley felt that the proposed garage door looks too commercial in
this fashion, especially with the proposed translucent glass panels. He liked the
idea of letting light into the garage during the day, but the treatment needs to be
modified in a way that is respectful of the historical context. He had no objection
to the doors using some translucent glass, but the current design appears to be
too contemporary.
Commissioner Kaplan agreed with the staff report as written.
Chair Pro Tem Fresco made a motion to continue this item to next month and for
the applicant to propose revised plans that address the Commissioner's
concerns. Commissioner Berley seconded the motion, which passed
unanimously by voice vote.

B. Landmark Designation Application LC-04LM-006, 921 19th Street (Craftsman
Bungalow), to determine whether the property should be designated as a City
Landmark.
Staff report presented by Ms. Reich.
The following members of the public addressed the Commission: Shahab Ghods,
Sue Schuerman, Kelly Swartz (letter read by Ms. Schuerman), Roya Kianmahd,
Marlene Saile (letter read by Ms. Kianmahd), Richard Wise, Gary Barkin and
Dyanna.
Commissioner Lehrer thanked everyone for coming out to support preservation
of this property. She disagreed with the staff report's findings. She felt that this
property is a gem and has architectural value that was not reflected in the staff
report. It is completely intact and pristine. She felt it met Criteria #4 and Criteria
#6. It represents what the neighborhood was like when it was first developed.
She supports the nomination.
While recognizing that the neighborhood has been largely redeveloped, Chair
Pro Tem Fresco supported the idea of keeping one intact element of the
neighborhood because this building tells the story of the neighborhood's early
development best.
Chairperson Genser stated that he tended to agree with the staff report because
that there are still a lot of Craftsman style homes in this area, and he needed
more substantial proof that this one rose to the Landmark level.
Commissioner Lehrer stated that this property is an exemplary example of a
Craftsman bungalow, and also made note of its fine details. She also stated that
it is the jewel of the neighborhood, represents the history of that neighborhood,
and is worthy of preserving.
The Commission and staff discussed the proper findings to make, including the
need to avoid too general of an interpretation for Criteria #6, and the possible
applicability of Criteria #1.
Commissioner Kaplan stated that this building is of the late Craftsman bungalow
period. It stands out as unique, has exquisite details and she supports saving it.
Following further discussion, Chairperson Genser stated that he now supports
the designation.
Commissioner Lehrer made a motion to designate as a landmark based on the
architectural qualities listed in criteria #1 and #4, and include the accessory
building as a contributing character defining feature. Commissioner Kaplan
seconded the motion, which passed by the following vote:

rJ In \.' \I 4 7
The Commission discussed the importance of what this agency does for the
state, and how this detrimental proposal with would eliminate over $1 million
dollars in federal funding that keeps preservation going in the state.
The Commission decided to send a letter to the City Council urging them to put
the City on record as being opposed to the Governor's plan to consolidate the
OHP into a Natural Resources Department and eliminate the State Historic
Preservation Commission. Commissioner Lehrer will e-mail to the Council the
next day in time to be included in the Council's discussion.
D. Discussion to Consider Whether to File an Application For Designation of the
Main Street Bridge Over the Interstate 10 Freeway as a Landmark.
The Commission discussed the ramifications of designating the bridge. Chair
Pro Tem Fresco then suggested that the Main Street Bridge be placed at the end
of the downtown nomination priority list.
Commissioner Lehrer made a motion to add the Main Street Bridge to the priority
list as #8. Commissioner Berley seconded the motion, which passed
unanimously by voice vote.
E. Discussion of Illegal Alterations to Structures that are Made While a Demolition

To the City of Santa Monica:
Please take exception to the demolition of921 19th Street for the sake of history and
beauty both of which we find more and more precious as the years go by and the stucco
and stories go up.
As I walk my daughter each eekday past this house and few others like it we can
appreciate the architecture d learn of our past.
Surely there is adequate ho ing elsewhere for the 8 to ] 0 :finnilies a new condo would
provide.
I always felt Santa Monica had a sophistication level that might be immune to the
WaIMartizing of housing.
