Huntington Greek House (originally addressed as 1019 14th St.) and in front of the small
stone alley house (historically addressed as 1027 14th St.). The property is located within

Architectural detailing includes an elaborate entry surround, a cornice with dentils and
three evenly spaced dormers with double hung windows facing east. The symmetrical

An array of irregularly spaced double-hung windows is located on the north (side)
elevation. The openings are simple, with concrete sills. A door accessed by concrete
steps is located on the north elevation. Two additions are apparent at the rear: a two-

pitched roof and overhanging eaves that flare at the first-story was originally
constructed at the corner of 14th Street and Euclid Avenue and moved to this location in
2016. The second-story features a shingled gable with decorative dentils and a
decorative shingled apron at the ridge line. There is a three-panel casement window
located in the gabled end. On the southern elevation is a shingled dormer with a double

original to the construction of the house, and shed roof dormers that were added in
2017. Three arched window openings are located on the north elevation. A steeply-
pitched gable roof addition with shed roof dormers is located at the rear of the house
and was also constructed in 2017.

The house retains its architectural integrity. Prior to the move, a non-historic addition
was removed. Following the move, a one-and-a-half story rear addition with a steeply-
pitched roof was constructed. Other alterations include enclosure of the side porch and
reconstruction of the front porch using as many original materials as possible. The brick

CRITERIA FOR THE BOARD’S DECISION:
Section 9-11-5(c), Public Hearing Before the Landmarks Board, B.R.C. 1981, specifies that in
its review of an application for local landmark designation, “the landmarks board shall
determine whether the proposed designation conforms with the purposes and
standards in Sections 9-11-1, ‘Legislative Intent,’ and 9-11-2, ‘City Council May Designate
Landmarks and Historic Districts’ B.R.C. 1981.” See Attachment E: Chapter 9-11-1 & 9-11-
2 Purposes and Intent, Boulder Revised Code, 1981.
To assist in the interpretation of the historic preservation ordinance, the Landmarks
Board has adopted significance criteria to use when evaluating applications for
individual landmarks. See Attachment F: Significance Criteria for Individual
Landmarks.
Within 45 days after the hearing date, the board shall adopt specific written findings
and conclusions approving, modifying and approving, or disapproving the proposal.
Within 30 days of its action, the board shall notify city council of any decision
disapproving a designation or shall refer a proposal that it has approved to the council
for its further action. If the board approves the proposed designation, the application
will be forwarded to City Council (within 100 days) for a public hearing. City Council
may call up a decision disapproving a designation. Should an application be
disapproved, the same application may not be submitted for a period of one year.
Item 5B, Page 15
ANALYSIS OF LANDMARK CRITERIA:
A. Does the proposed application protect, enhance, and perpetuate buildings in the city
reminiscent of past eras, events, and persons important in local, state, or national history or
providing significant examples of architectural styles of the past?
Staff finds that the designation of a portion of the property at 1027 14th St. containing
the Glen Huntington Sorority and Fraternity House, Swayne House and DeMuth
House will protect buildings reminiscent of past eras important in local history and
preserve important examples of Boulder’s historic architecture. Staff considers the
application to meet the historic criteria for individual landmark designation as
outlined above in the Historic Significance Summary.
B. Does the proposed application develop and maintain an appropriate setting and environment
for the historic resource and area to enhance property values, stabilize neighborhoods,
promote tourist trade and interest, and foster knowledge of the City’s living heritage?
Staff finds that the proposed designation will maintain appropriate settings for the
historic resources at 1027 14th St. and enhance property values, promote tourist trade
and interest, and foster knowledge of the city’s living heritage. Staff considers that
the application meets the environmental significance criteria for individual
landmark designation as outlined above in the Environmental Significance
Summary.
C. Does the proposed application draw a reasonable balance between private property rights and
the public interest in preserving the city’s cultural, historic, and architectural heritage by
ensuring that demolition of buildings and structures important to that heritage will be
carefully weighed with other alternatives?(See Subsection 9-11-1(b), B.R.C. 1981).
Staff finds this application draws a reasonable balance between private property
rights and the public’s interest in preserving the city’s cultural, historic, and
architectural heritage. The property owner supports the designation.
LANDMARK NAME:
Staff considers that the buildings at 1027 14th St. should be named as follows:
1. The Glen Huntington Greek House, for its association with prominent architect
Glen Huntington and the sorority and fraternities that occupied the house since
its construction in 1926;
2. The Swayne House, for its association with Josephine and Ida Swayne. Josephine
started one of the first apartments in the University Hill area. Ida was an
influential professor in the early days of the University of Colorado’s chemistry
department; and
Item 5B, Page 16
3. The DeMuth House, for its association with Frances P. DeMuth, a long-term
resident, secretary at the university, and teacher in Nederland.
The naming of the buildings at 1027 14th Street is consistent with the Landmark Board’s
Guidelines for Names of Landmarked Structures and Sites (1988) and the National Register of
Historic Places Guidelines for Designation. See Attachment G: Guidelines for Names of
Landmarked Structures and Sites.
BOUNDARY ANALYSIS:
The buildings sit on a lot measuring approximately 24,710 sq. ft. in size. Staff
recommends that the boundary be established to encompass the north 100 feet of the lot
where the three historic buildings are located.
