5B - Consideration of an application (HIS2008-00263) to designate 1904-1912 and 1918 1/2 Pearl St as a local historic landmark MEMORANDUM December 3, 2008 `I'O: Landmarks Board FROM: Susan Richstone, Long Range Planning Manager James Hewat, Preservation Planner Allison Hawes, Preservation Intern Chris Meschuk, Preservation Planner SUBJECT: Public hearing and consideration of an application to designate the buildings and property at 1904-1912 and 1918 I/z Pearl Street as a local historic landmark as per Section 9-11-5 of the Boulder Revised Code, 1981 (HIS2008-00263). STATISTICS 1. Site: 1904-1912 and 1918 I/z Pearl Street 2. Zoning: MU-3 (Mixed tJse - 3) 3. Applicant: Landmarks Board 4. Owner: Ringsby Family LLLP c/o Chip Wise 5. Date of Construction: 1876, with a 1959 addition and c. 1910 alley house STAFF RECOMMEiVDATION: Staff recommends that the Landmarks Board adopt the following motion: The Landmarks Board forward to City Council an application to designate the alley house and a portion of the site at 1918 1/a Pearl Street as a local historic landmark, to be known as the Lund Summer House, finding that it meets the standards for individual landmark designation in Sections 9-11-1 and 9-11-2, B.R.C., 1981 and adopts the staff memorandum including the following as findings of the board: FINDINGS The Landmarks Board finds, based upon the application and evidence presented, that the proposed designation application, subject to the conditions of approval, will be consistent with the purposes and standards of the Historic Preservation Ordinance, and: 1. The proposed designation of 19181h Pearl Street will protect, enhance, and perpetuate buildings, sites, and areas of the city reminiscent of past eras, events, and persons important in local, state, or national history and providing significant examples of architectural styles of the past.

The proposed designation of 1918'/2 Pearl Street will develop and maintain appropriate settings and environments for such buildings, sites, and areas to enhance property values, stabilize neighborhoods, promote tourist trade -and interest, and foster knowledge of the City's living heritage. (9-11-1(a), B.R.C. 1981) 3. The proposed designation of 1918 '/z Pearl Street draws 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. (9-11-1(b), B.R.C. 1981). 4. The primary building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street, known as the Lund Hotel, has been so significantly altered that it is not considered to be eligible for local landmark designation. This recommendation is based upon staff's opinion that the proposed designation is consistent with the criteria specified in Section 9-11-5(c), B.R.C. 1981. SUMMARY: • The purpose of this review is for the board to determine whether the proposed designation of 1904-1912 and 1918'/z Pearl Street conforms to the pul-poses and standards of Sections 9-11- 1 Legislative Intent and 9-11-2 City Council May designate Landmarks and Historic Districts of the Boulder Revised Code (BRC). ¦ On June 4, 2008 the Landmarks Board voted to impose astay-of-demolition for a period of up to 180 days, finding that there was "probable cause" to consider the property may be eligible for designation as an individual landmark ¦ On October 1, 2008 the Landmarks Board passed a resolution initiating landmark designation on the property at 1904-1912 and 1918'/2 Pearl Street. • Based upon analysis of the building's history and architecture, it is staff's opinion that the alley cottage has significance under the historic, architectural, and environmental Individual Landmark Significance Criteria (1975), and the historic preservation ordinance. The primary building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street has been so significantly altered that the building is.no lor.gcr eligible for local landmark designation. ¦ Staff recommends that the board find that the designation of the alley cottage and a portion of the site surrounding the cottage at 1918'/z Pearl Street conforms with Sections 9-11-1 and 9- I 1-2 of the Boulder Revised Code and recommend to City Council the approval of the application for landmark designation, adopting this staff memorandum as findings of the Board. BACKGROUND Un April 14, 2008, the Planning Department received a demolition permit application for the buildings located at 1904-1912 Pearl Street and 1918'/z Pearl Street. The buildings are not individually landmarked or located in a designated historic district, but are over fifty years old and were proposed for demolition as defined in section 9-11-23, B.R.C. On April 23rd, 2008 the Landmarks Design Review Committee referl-ed the application to the Landmarks Board for a public hearing based upon the Design Review Committee's finding of probable cause to believe that the buildings may be eligible for designation as an individual landmark. On June 4, 2008, the Landmarks Board placed astay-of-demolition on the property finding probable cause to believe the buildings may be eligible for local landmark designation, and to provide time to consider alternatives to the demolition. The applicants presented the board with an alternative to ACTENDA ITEM #SB PAGE 2 S:\PLAN\dataVongrangV~IS'N..andmarks\Pearl.1904-1912\12.3.08 LPAB Designation Memo.doc relocate the alley cottage to the September School, and to demolish the primary building. On October 1, 2008, the board passed a resolution initiating landmark designation on the buildings and entire site at 1904-1912 and 1918'/a Pearl Street. ' PROPLR'TY DESCRIPTION: Located in the East Boulder Figure 1: ,Location 11~1ap Addition on the south side of Pearl Street, between 19`'' and 20`~ o Streets, the approximately 17,424 ' s ware foot lot is located on the O cl east end of Pearl Street, which boasts an eclectic mix of historic ~~-1912 P~a`i buildings and newer development 1904-P~r~ is~a ~i2 Pearl' of both residential and commercial use. 1904-1912 Pearl Street first served as the Lund Hotel and more recently housed the Boulder Co- ~ y op. The Lund Hotel is a two-story ~ n brick building built in 1876, and _ ~ ~-J has been extensively remodeled O over the decades. The concrete- _ block addition at 1.904 Pearl was ~ constructed in 1959 and has been ~ O ~~~J used for various commercial ' purposes over the years. The small, wood frame house at 1918'/2 Pearl Street is accessed from the alley, located behind 1918 Pearl Street. Based on assessor information, the total building lot coverage is estimated at l 1,884 square feet. The two story brick building at 1906-1912 Pearl Street was built by John and Sophia Lund in 1876, immediately after their an•ival to Boulder. It served as a hotel and focal point of the Swedish community for over 60 years, from the early 1880's until the late 1930's. The hotel was operated by John Lund until a gunshot wound left him paralyzed in 1900. The event later caused his death on August 23, 1907. From 1907 until 1915, his wife, Sophia operated the hotel. From 1915 until 1918, John Wahlgren, their son-in-law, managed the hotel. From 1918 until her death in 1939, Mrs. Lund rented out furnished rooms. From 1939 until 1946, Gertie Wahlstrom, her daughter, managed the Lund Hotel Apartments. The hotel was sold in 1951, and was immediately converted into apartments. The lower portion of the building has served as Boulder Home Improvement Company, Wilson's Furniture Exchange, Gil's Furniture, Rocky Mountain Instrument Company, Don's Cheese and Sausage Mart, Left Hand Baoks and Records, and Tr•ansecon Business Consulting. In 1959, a concrete block addition was constructed on the west portion of the property (1904 Pearl Street). The building has served as Gil's Furniture Company, Gil and Hal's Furniture Company, Boulder Valley Furniture, Hot Point Appliance Distributor, Ansty Business Center, Business Express and most recently, the Boulder CO-OP Market.

The facade of the building has been significantly altered, with the application of sandstone, re- configuration of the store-front and second-story windows, and the application of stucco. The alterations can be tracked through the building permits: in 1981, metal jamb windows and sky- lights were installed; in 1951 and again in 1970 the apartments were remodeled; in 1976 there was a fire in the building, most likely due to inadequate vents for Don's Cheese and Sausage Mart, located on the first floor of 1908 Pearl Street. The extent of the damage due to the fire is unknown. See Attachment E• ,Sanborn Mks and Building Permit Summary. The building at 1904 Pearl Street is simply constructed, and is typical of 1950's commercial buildings, apparent in the low, horizontal mass dominated by storefront windows. The building appears to be intact; building permits for the property indicate alterations regarding signs, interior walls and a new roof in 1986. See Attachment E: Sanborn Maps and Building Permit Summary The small cottage at 1918'/z Pearl Street, constructed in a wood frame vernacular manner, is relatively intact. An addition on the south side appears to be early; judging from the Sanborn Insurance maps, staff estimates the addition to have been built between 1910 and 1918. 'I he lap- siding appears to be original; the windows have been replaced and the porch has had minor alterations. The buildings at 1904-1912 Pearl Street were surveyed in 1988, where it was found that the building was in good condition and is associated with significant persons (John & Sophia Lund), but retains little historic integrity due to extensive remodeling.

BOARD'S DECISION: Section 9-11-5(c) Public Ilearing Before the I andrrlarks Board, of the historic preservation ordinance specifies that in their review of an application for local landmark designation, "the landmarks board shall dete>;Ynine whether the proposed designation conforms with the purposes and standards in Sections 9-11-1 I egislative Intent, and 9-1 1-2 City Council May Designate Landmarks and Historic Districts". 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. The criteria are included in Attuchment C. The Board may approve, approve with modifications, or disapprove the application. Findings must be adopted within 30 days of the hearing date. Should the Board disapprove the application, the Board must notify City Council of that action within fourteen days of the hearing date. 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. If the Board finds that the proposed designation conforms to Sections 9-I1-1 and 9-11-2 of the code, it shall adopt specific findings and conclusions approving or modifying and approving the application. If the board approves the proposed designation, the application will be forwarded to City Council (within 100 days) for a public hearing. ANALYSIS: A. Dves the proposed application protect, enhance, and perpetuate buildings, sites, and areas of the city reminiscent of past eras, events, and persons impvr-turzt in lvcal, state, or national history or providing significant examples of architectural styles of the past? AGENDA ITEM #SB ijAGE 6 S:\PLAN\dataVongrangVilS'iVandmarks\Pearl.1904-191202.3.08 LPAB Designation Memo.doc Staff finds that the proposed application would protect the cottage building, which is reminiscent of past eras, events, and persons important in local history and provide for a significant example of an architectural style. Staff believes that the primary building at 1904-1912 Pearl has been so significantly altered that is no longer represents a significant architectural style of the past, nor does it protect, enhance or perpetuate a building or site reminiscent of past eras, events, and persons important in local history. The staff considers that part of the application meets the historic and architectural criteria for individual landmarks as outlined below: HISTORIC SIGNIFICANCE: Summary: The alley house located at 1918'/a Pearl Street has historic significance under criteria 1, 2, 3 and 4. The primary building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street has historic significance under criterion 2. 1. Date of Construction: 1918'/a Pearl (Alley house) - c. 1908. Elaboration: The alley house at 1918'h Pearl Street was constructed c.1908. The house does not appear on the 190E Sanborn map, but appears in 1910. The 1904-1912 Pearl Street building was constructed in 1876 and 1888, with an addition in 1951. Despite its early date of construction, staff does not consider the building to be historically significant due to major alterations which have resulted in the original construction date being unclear from the appearance of the building. 2. Association with Persons or Events: John and Sophia Lund Elaboration: John and Sophia Lund were pronunent Swedish immigrants, grid the Lund Hotel was a major focal point and gathering spot for Swedish immigrants during the late 19t1i and early 20`i' Centuries. John Lund was bol-11 on December 16t't, 1838 in Sweden. He came to America as a boy and later settled in Black Hawk Colorado. He brought his bride, Sophia Lindstrom (born in Vastmanland, Sweden on September 22, 1851), from Sweden and they married on February 12th, 1875. Sophia found the altitude too challenging and they soon moved t.o Boulder, where Sophia's sister, Mary Pal•sons lived. Ina 1933 Daily Camera article, Mxs. Lund recalls how they bought land the day after they arrived in Boulder, on a plot they had separately chosen. They opened the John Lund Hotel and Saloon in 1876, and it soon became known as a place for Swedish immigrants to gather, particularly on weekends, when workers would come from the mines. The hotel served as the first place Swedes would come as part of their new life in America. Ina 1.952 article from the Daily Camera, Mathilda Josephine Borgstrand, a niece of John Lund, gave a first hand description of life at the hotel: "In those days there was a white picket fence all around the place. Gooseberries followed the fence around. In the back was a summer house painted green with a big long table and benches inside. We used to have lunch and cold beer out there in the summer evenings. There was also a big red barr2 in back where they kept a cow. On the front of the hotel was a platform porch that ran full length. On the east side were big willow trees and on the west were maples. " John Lund operated the hotel from 1876 until 1900. In 1900, while he was talking to a neighbor in the hotel, he was confronted and shot by a man who either thought that Mr. Lund knew the whereabouts of a woman (imagined or real) that Mx. Nelson fancied and was deliberately withholding the information or that Mr. Lund had advised this woman to resist AGENDA ITEM #5B PAGE 7 S:\PLA,I\dalaVongrang\li1S'I~LandmarkslPear1.1904-1912\12.3.08 LPAI3 Designation Memo.doc Mr. Nelson's advances. The gunshot resulted in paralysis, and he died, 7 years later, on August 23, 1907, at the age of 45. Mrs. Lund continued to operate the hotel until 1915 and again as apartment rooms from 1918 until her death in 1939. Froln 1915-1918, the hotel was operated by Jdhn Walhgren, her daughter's husband. It is uncertain how many children the Lunds had; research indicates anywhere from 4 to 11, five of whom died in infancy. In the least, their children include Gertrude, Jennie, Esther and Ernest. Gertie and Esther married brothers Oscar and Axel Wahlstrom, another prominent Swedish family, the same for which the landmarked Wahlstrom Terrace, just north of the hotel, is associated with. Oscar died in an auto accident; Esther had two children, both of whom died young. Gertie was a secretary for an insurance company and divorced Axel Wahlstrom in 1922. They had no children. Other children may include Herman, Albert, Oscar Alfred, and Alnelia.

Boulder's Srvedish Heritage " 3. llevelopment of the Community: Boulder's Swedish Heritage Elaboration: The property served as a meeting spot and social center for the Swedish community for over 60 years. A historic context report titled "Northern Lights: Boulder's Swedish Heritage" tells of the early Swedish community, and cites the Lunds as prominent Swedish immigrants: Prom 1870-1900, the number of Swedish immigrants who settled in Colorado increased swiftly, from approximately 220 to 10,765. 'They came to Boulder for the mining prospects, and found Colorado favorable because the weather was similar to Sweden. The homestead Act in 1862 also encouraged many immigrants to settle in Colorado, while others left Sweden because of a decreased need for skilled labor and rising political conflicts. The historic context report states that: "Un their land, the Lunds built a hotel, complete with a saloon on the west side. Although the saloon is not listed in the Colorado State Business Directory after 1896, the hotel prospered. It served as an informal social center for the burgeoning Swedish community. Lund would greet newcomers getting off the train from Denver, and bring them back to the hotel, where Sophia cooked food from the homeland. The Lunds also helped the immigrants find jobs and locate or build permanent residences. rI'he cone-stoxy, red and brick triplex across the street from the hotel at 1911-1915 •Pearl Street may have been used by some of these new corners as temporary living quarters. Charles Solomon Wahlstrom gave an account: "I stayed there at the John Lund Hotel for a long time. Mrs. Lund did the cooking and I tell you we had wonderful meals. The lower part of the hotel on the west side had been a saloon and dance hall. Every evening if we felt like it we had a dance. All the boarders were Swedish and we talked our own language. It was just like our own home. All the Swedes from around this part of the country headed for the Lund Hotel. AGENDA ITEM #SB PAGE 8 S:\PLAN\data\longrang\HIS'IlLandmarks\Pear1.1904-1912\12.3.08 LPAB Designation Memo.doc When the Moffat railroad was being built, those Swedes who had good contracts driving tunnels would come down for a good time. `They'd been up there seven or eight months, roughing it, and they had a good stake (money). They had fun! There was a big ice box there in the back where John Lund kept a keg of beer cold. We used to have good times, let me tell you, on summer evenings out in that summer house in the back and at dances. There were lots of Swedes here then and they all gathered at the hotel." The John Lund Hotel served as a focal point for Swedish immigrants and was instrumental in settling the Swedish population in Boulder. `The alley house, as an intact link to this history, is significant to the development of the community. The primary building (John Lund Hotel) has been so significantly altered that it no longer retains integrity of association to the history that the alley building conveys. 4. Recognition by Authorities: 1988 Architectural Survey, Daily Camera Articles, Hotels of Boulder, Colorado from .1860 by Sanford Gladden, City of Boulder Memorandums Elaboration:_The alley cottage has retained sufficient integrity to interpret the site's history, which has been recognized by authorities. The building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street was surveyed in 1988 by the Colorado Historical Society, who found the condition of the building to be good, with major alterations, including `remodeled facade; stucco; new stone facing; remodeled windows and doors". The survey further states: "The John Lund hotel was built ca. 1877 by Colorado pioneers John and Sophia Lund, and was a focal point of Boulder's Swedish-American community for almost 60 years. The building, however, has been extensively remodeled and has little historic integrity." See Attachment B: Historic Building Inventory Form In 1995, designation of an East End Historic District was considered by the board. The application was ultimately withdrawn, but as part of the process, the historic significance of the area was researched and summarized. The memorandum to the Landmarks Preservation r'~dvisory Board dated 1/4/1995 lists the Lund family as a significant Boulder pioneer family and outlines their role as part of Boulder's early Swedish community. 'The memo identifies the primary building at 1904-1912 as non-contributing, and the alley house at 1918 z/a as contributing. See Attachment G: Excerpts from Potential East End historic District Memo (1995) curd Scnvev of SU•uctr.eres Over 50 Years Old on East Pearl Street (1999) In 1999, the city of Boulder conducted a survey of buildings over 50 years old along the east Pearl Street corridor. The survey offers a brief history of the Lund Hotel, and describes the structure: "Extent of Alterations: Major, has new stone facing on first floor and stucco above, a lower addition on the back. In good condition, could be restored, using historic photographs, and carefully removing the stucco to reveal the brick beneath. The original window area exist, thus window surrounds could be easily reconstructed. 1904 Pearl, now Business Express, is a new structure, built where the Lund orchards/garden stood.

The primary building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street has no architectural significance. 1. Recognized Period or Style: FvIk Period, National Style, Vernacular Frame Elaboration: The alley house is considered to be vernacular frame in style, consistent with the nativnal style of folk houses dating from the early 20`h century. The building has a rectangular form, with a gable front-and-wing shape. Virginia and Lee McAlister's book A Field Guide to American (louses states that as railroads expanded, the materials of early folk houses changed from rough-hewn lumber to more modern building materials. "While two-story gable-front houses dominated urban folk building in the northeast, a related shape, also descended from styled Greek Revival houses, became common in rural areas. In this foam, an additional side-gabled wing was added at right angles to the gable-front plan to give a compound, gable front-and-wing shape. A shed- roofed porch was typically placed within the L made by the two wings. The building still exemplifies specific elements of this form, with the porch located in the L made by the two wings, the simple drop siding and eaves. 1'he house has been slightly altered with replacement of the windows, alteration of the porch roof, and ashed-roof addition on the south end of the building sometime after 1960. The primary building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street was first constructed in 1876, with an addition in 1888, and another in 1951. Based on the level of alteration to the building, staff considers that the building no longer has any recognizable period or style. See the analysis of integrity for more information. 2. Architect or Builder of Prominence: none known Elaboration: 3. Artistic Merit: none observed Elaboration: 4. Example of the Uncommon: Alley house Elaboration: Staff believes the alley house is a rare remaining example of an intact alley house along Pearl Street, a primary commercial corridor. 5. Indigenous Qualities: None observed 6. Other: Integrity: The alley house retains sufficient architectural integrity Elaboration: After additional research and analysis during the stay-of-demolition period, staff has concluded that the building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street does nvt retain sufficient integrity to be eligible for designation as a local landmark. The building has been AGENDA ITEM #SB PAGE l.0 S:\PLAN\data\longrang\FI1S'1~Landmarks\Pear1.1904-1912\12.3.08 LPAB Designation Mcmo.doc significantly altered beyond recognition of its historic appearance, while the alley cottage at 1918'/z Pearl Street retains integrity to the historic period of ownership by the Lunds. The National Register of Historic Places defines integrity as a building that can convey its significance. Within this concept, seven aspects or qualities arc used to evaluate integrity: • Location • Design • Setting • Materials • Workmanship • Feeling • f'lssociatii~n The f~~liuwiny~ is yin assessment of the integrity of 1904-1912 and 1918'h Pearl Street using these seven aspects. Mole detail on the definitions and interpretations of the seven aspects of integrity are included in Attachment H.: Location: Location is the place where the historic property was constructed or the place where the historic event occurred. Staff considers that the building at 1904-1912 Pearl has retained its integrity of location, as it has not been moved or the location significantly altered. The alley house at 1918'/z Pearl Street has also retained its integrity of location. llesign: Design is the combination of elements that create the form, plan, space, structure, and style of a property. Staff considers shat the building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street no longer retains integrity of design. The building no longer exhibits its original style, and elements such as the facade massing, fenestration, surface materials, textures, and ornamental details are lost. However, the alley house at 1918'/z Pearl Street does retain integrity of design. The original style, and detail of materials, fenestration, and form are not significantly altered from the historic period. Setting: Setting is the physical environment of a historic property. Staff considers that the building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street no longer retains integrity of setting. The 1959 addition significantly changed the immediate character of the site, and the formel• interaction of the facade to the street/sidewalkbas changed greatly with the replacement of the storefront and entrances. The alley house at 1918 1/z Pearl Street has also lost integrity of setting. The significance of the alley house in relation to the main hotel building has been significantly altered given the changes to the hotel and area around the property. Materials: Materials are the physical elements that were combined or deposited during a particular period of time and in a particular pattern or configuration to form a historic property. Staff considers that the building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street no longer retains integrity of materials. The facade of the building has lost all historic material. The choice and combination of material no longer "reveal the preferences of those who created the property." AGENDA ITEM #SB PAGE 11 S:V'LAMdataVongrangUllS'I~Landmarks\Pead.1904-1912\12.3.08 LPAB Designation Memo,doc The facade retains few, if any key exterior materials dating from its historic period of significance (period of Lund Hotel). Furthermore, more than 50% of the west wall has been removed, as well as a significant portion of the south walls. Materials on the facade are comprised of stucco and imitation stone dating from the 1950s. The west and south sides of the building retain some of the key historic exterior materials, but have been altered over time with fenestration modifications, enclosure of some portions, and significant deterioration. While remodeled around 1930, the alley house at 1918'/a Pearl Street has retained integrity. The building has been altered over time, with anon-historic addition on the south side of the building. In addition, the porch has been altered and the windows replaced. However, the majority of the building still displays key exterior features from the period of significance. Workmanship: Workmanship is the physical evidence of the crafts of a particular culture or people during any given period in history or prehistory. Staff considers that the building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street no longer retains integrity of workmanship. The building has lost evidence of artisans' labor and skill. While some of the original brick walls remain on the side, and rear of the building, the details have eroded, or have been covered up or painted. The alley house at 1918'/2 Pearl. Street has retained integrity of workmanship. The physical evidence of the artisans' labor is still evident, as most of the exterior of the building retains its historic appearance and materials. Feeling: Feeling is a property's expression of the aesthetic or historic sense of a particular period of time. Staff considers that the building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street has lost integrity of feeling, and no longer expresses an aesthetic or historic sense of the period of the building functioning as the Lund Hotel, but is reminiscent of the 1950s. The alley cottage at 1918'/2 Pearl Street has retained integrity of feeling and expresses an aesthetic and historic sense dating to the Lund ownership during the early years of the 20`h Century. Association: Association is the direct link between an important historic event or person and a historic property. Staff considers that the building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street no longer retains integrity of association. While the property is associated with the Lund Hotel, and is recognized as a place important to the Swedish heritage of the city, the building no longer retains integrity to convey that relationship to an observer, as the physical features no longer convey that historic character. The alley cattage at 1918'/2 Pearl Street does retain integrity of association, as the building still conveys the historic character from the period of the Lund's ownership in the early 20`'' century. In summary, the building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street only retains integrity of location and no longer retains integrity of design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, or association. 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? AGENDA ITEM #SH PAGE 12 S:\PLAMdataVongrang\HIST~Landmarks\Pear1.1904-1912\12.3.08 LPAB Designation Mernadoc Staff finds that a portion of the proposed application would maintain a approprate setting for the historic resource and area at 1918'h Pearl St. to enhance property value, stabilize the neighborhood, 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 landmarks as outlined below: ENVIRONMENTAL SIGNIFICANCE: Summary: The alley house at 1918'/z Pearl Street has environmental significance under criteria 2, 3 and 5. The primary building at 1904-1912 has no environmental significance. 1. Site Characteristics: none observed Elaboration: There is no planned or natural vegetation on the site. 2. Compatibility with Site: Alley house Elaboration: The alley house is a unique and uncommon feature along Pearl Street, and reflects the historic and current rrlixture of uses, forms, and densities of buildings. 3. Geographic Importance: Alley house EIaboration: The alley house is a unique and uncommon feature along the Pearl Street alley, and reflects the historic and current mixture of uses, forms, and densities of buildings. 4. Environmental Appropriateness: None observed 5. Area Integrity: Alley house related to the Lund Hotel EIaboration: The alley house is the only intact link directly to the Lund's and the historic operation of the hotel. The surrounding Landmarks (Whalstrom Terrace, Borgstrand House) all relate to the Lund family, but none of the intact buildings are directly linked to the hotel or its proprietors. The alley house provides important historic, architectural; and•environmentaL-importance and continuity to the property. Boundary Analysis: When the Landmarks Board initiated the designation of the property, it specifically indicated that the entire parcel shall be included in the application, and that a boundary analysis shall be included as part of the designation hearing. The Landmarks Board has not adopted specific guidelines far establishing boundaries around landmark sites. The ordinance states that the "application [shall) develop and maintain appropriate settings and envirofaments for such buildings, sites... " (9-11-1, B.R. C.> 1981 The National Park Service has guidelines for selecting boundaries as part of a National Register of Historic Places nomination. A copy of the guidelines is included in Attachment 1. Below is an analysis of two potential boundaries: 1. A portion of the site suz~-ounding the alley house, as requested by the potential purchasers (following the property lines on the north, east and south sides, and extending 20 feet from the western edge of the building) 2. The entire site, as initiated by the Landmarks Board.

C. Daes the proposed applicatio~z draw a reasonable balance between private property rights and the public interest in preserving the City's cultural, historic, a~zd architectural heritage by ensuring that derraolition of buildings and structures important to that heritage will be carefully weighed with other alternatives? The application includes both buildings on the site --the primary building at 1944-1912 Pearl St, and the alley house at 1918'h Pearl St. Staff considers that designation of the alley house and a portion of the site around it would draw a reasonable balance between private property rights and the public's interest in preserving the city's cultural, historic, and architectural heritage. The preservation of the alley house will allow the historic significance of the site to AGENDA I"I'EM #SB PAGE 15 S:U'LAIV\data\longrang\HIS71Landmarks\Pear1.1904-1912\12.3.OR LPAB Designation Memo.doc be interpreted and preserved, while acknowledging the loss of integrity that has occurred to the 1904-1912 Pearl Street (Lund Hotel) building. While it is agreed that the Lund Hotel, and the Lund family is significant to the history of Boulder and the development of the community, the building to be preserved must first and foremost have historic integrity. National Register Bulletin 32: Guidelines for Evaluating and Documenting Properties Associated with Significant Persons states in Guideline 11: "A property must retain integrity from the period of its significant historic associations. " The guideline goes on to state: "Historic character and associations are embodied in and conveyed by the physical features of a resource. All properties change over time, but a basic test of the integrity of a property significant under National Kegister Criterion B is whether the significant person(s) associated with the resource would recognize it as it exists today. " Staff is of the opinion that the primary building at 1904-1912 Pearl Street (Lund Hotel) has been so significantly altered that the physical features no longer convey the historic character and association. The alley house however, retains enough integrity from the period of significance (period of Lund ownership) to convey the historic character and association. The potential purchasers of the property have stated in their submitted materials that if the designation is limited to the alley house and a portion of the site around it as described in boundary scenario 1, they will support the designation of the building.

Architectural Description: Two-story; flat roof. The facade has been remodeled with stucco and new stone facing; remodeled windows and doors. The second-story facade has six double-hung windows. Original brick can be seen on side elevations, as can the original segmental-arched windows, now remodeled. Construction History: Historical Background: This building was originally the John Lund Hotel, built ca. 1877 by John and Sophia Lindstrom Lund, who were both Swedish immigrants. The "ends married in Black Hawk, Colorado, in 1874, where John Lund had been a ~telkeeper. In 1876, the Lunds moved to Boulder, where they soon built 'zis hotel. John Lund would meet all the trains coming into Boulder and kick up the Swedish immigrants, for whom he would also help find jobs. Sophia Lund did the cooking, and the lower part of the hotel on the west side was used as a saloon/dance hall. The hotel soon became a focal point for Boulder's Swedish community. Swedish miners would come into Boulder to celebrate on weekends, as would the Swedish laborers who worked on the Moffat Railroad. The building originally featured a full-width, front, platform porch. In the back was a summer dining house, as well as a barn. A picket fence surrounded the property, which was lined with gooseberry bushes, willow, and maple trees. The Lunds had at .least six children: Ernest, Herman, Oscar, Jenny, Esther, and Gertie. John Lund died in 1907, a result of an attack by an insane man. Sophia Lund continued to operate the hotel until at least 1933. Architectural Significance: Represents the work of a master. Possesses high artistic values. Represents a type, period or method of construction. Historical Significance: X_ Associated with significant persons. _ Associated with significant events and/or patterns. Contributes to an historic district. 1904-12 Pearl Street Page 3 .,,Statement of Significance: The John Lund hotel was built ca. 1877 by Colorado pioneers John and Sophia Lund, and was a focal point of Boulder's Swedish-American community for almost 60 years. The building, however, has been extensively remodeled and has little historic integrity.

The next year she came by train to Black Hawk. The altitude of Black Haxk proved too great for the young xife,and a doctor advised a move t~~ a lower elevation. In 1876 they came to Boulder where Mrs. Lwad's sister,Mrs. Mary (Lindstrom) Parsons,wife of Easmus Parsons ,was living. They were the parents of Martin Parsons (1875-1965)+well-known to the residents of the Boulder area. The Lunds were so taken with the surroundings that they de- cided to settle in Boulder. On Aug.5,1876,John Lund bought the west half of Lot 4,Block 74, from Amos Widner (Boulder County Deed Book 42,p.31). This was in the 1900-_block of Pearl Street,on the south side of the street. On his land,John Lund built a hotel,with part of it a saloon, calling it the John Lund Hotel. The saloon was discontinued of ter a few years ,but the hotel prospered especially since Mrs. Lund was an excellent cook. The hotel became the visiting-place for Swedes from all over the neighborhood and on weekends the building echoed with the songs and merrymaking of the people. It was also the place xhere the nex Sxedish immigrants came after leaving their homes in Sweden to seek the new life. After the long journey to Colorado and arrival in Denver,they xould go to the Lund Hotel in Boulder,to stay until they xere met by friends or relatives,and in some cases by their sweethearts and the people for whom they xould xork. Their stay xould be made pleasant and they would be a little less homesick for they xould be in ea area like home with Sxedish-speaking folks to make them welcome and xith dancing and music of their old homeland. John Lund died in Boulder pug.23,1907,as the result of paralysis from a pistol_shot fired by another Swede,Charles Nelson. It appears that Nelson got the fixation that Mr. Lund knew the whereabouts of a woman-real or imaginary-with whom Nelson xas infatuated but that Mr. Lund refused to reveal the information. One evening in 1900,xhile Mr. Lund was talking xith a neighbor in the hotel of.fice,Nelson entered and shot him. From that day on, • Mr. Lund was paralyzed. Even when he made his wi1l,Oct.24,1900,he was unable- to sign it. ~e obituary of John Lund is to be found in the Boulder -127- _ _ c:~:~. F, .

Site Characteristics: The outbui]dings behind 1836 Pearl and 2020 19th Street are significant features of the potential district. 2. Compatibility with site: The scale and massing of the historic buildings in the potential district is compatible with the mixed-use character of the area. The 1930's structures are also compatible with the district in terms of mass and scale. 3. Geographic importance: The potential East End Historic District represents a common development pattern found in Boulder near the turn of the century. Boulder's commercial core was located along Pearl Street from 10th to 14th Street, while the cast and west ends of Pearl Street developed as mixed-use, residential-serving commercial districts. The uses in these areas, such as small markets, grocery stores and dry goods stores, were closely related to neighborhood needs.

HOW TO EVALUATE THE INTEGRITY OF A PROPERTY Integrity is the ability of a property to convey its significance. 'I'o be listed in the National Register of Historic Places, a property must not only be shown to be significant under the National Register criteria, but it also must have integrity. The evaluation of integrity is sometimes a subjective judgment, but it must always be grounded in an understanding of a property's physical features and how they relate to its significance. Historic properties either retain integrity (this is, convey their significance) or they do not. Within the concegt of integrity, the National Register criteria recognizes seven aspects or qualities that, in various combinations, define integrity. To retain historic integrity a property will always possess several, and usually most, of the aspects. The retention of. specific aspects of integrity is paramount for a property to convey its significance. Determining which of these aspects are most important to a particular property requires knowing why, where, and when the property is significant: The following sections define the seven aspects and explain how they combine to produce integrity. 1.

Materials . Workmanship . Feeling . Association Understanding t1:e Aspects of Integrity Location Location is the place where the historic property was constructed or the place where the historic event occurred. The relationship between the property and its location is often important to understanding why the property was created or why something happened. The actual location of a historic property, complemented by its setting, is particularly important in recapturing the sense of historic events and persons. Except in rare cases, the relationship between a property and its historic associations is destroyed if the property is moved. (See Criteria Consideration B in Part ~V17: How to Apply the Criteria Considerations, for the conditions under which a moved property can be eligible.) Design Design is the combination of elements that create the form, plan, space, structure, aid style of a property. It results from conscious decisions made during the original conception and planning of a property (or its significant alteration) and applies to activities as diverse as community planning, engineering, architecture, and landscape architecture. Design includes such elements as organization of space, proportion, scale, technology, ornamentation, and materials. A property's design reflects historic functions and technologies as well as aesthetics. It includes such considerations as the structural system; massing; arrangement of spaces; pattern of fenestration; textures and colors of surface materials; type, amount, and style of ornamental detailing; and arrangement and type of plantings in a designed landscape. Design can also apply to districts, whether they are important primarily for historic association, architectural value, information potential, or a combination thereof. For districts significant primarily for historic association or architectural value, design concerns more than just the individual buildings or structures located within the boundaries. It also applies to the way zn which buildings, sites, or structures are related: for example, spatial relationships between major features; visual rhythms in a streetseape or landscape plantings; the layout and materials of walkways and roads; and the relationship of other features, such as statues, water fountains, and archeological sites. Setting Setting is the physical environment of a historic property. Whereas location refers to the specific place where a property was built or an event occurred, setting refers to the character http:!/www.nps.gov/nr/publications/bulletins/nrb 1 S/nrb 15_8.htu~ 9/19/2008 . Section VIII: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation, National Regist... _ ' of the place in which the property played its historical role. It involves how, not just where, the property is situated and its relationship to surrounding features and open space. Setting ofren reflects the basic physical conditions under which a property was built and the functions it was intended to serve. In addition, the way in which a property is positioned in its environment can reflect the designer's concept of nature and aesthetic preferences. 'rhe physical features that constitute the setting of a historic property can be either natural or manmade, including such elements as: . Topographic features (a gorge or the crest of a hill}; . Vegetation; • Simple manmade features (paths or fences); and - . Relationships between buildings and other features or open space. .These features and their relationships should be examined not only within the exact boundaries of the property, but also between the property and its surroundings. This is particularly important for districts. Materials Materials are the physical elements that were combined or deposited during a particular period of time and in a particular pattern or configuration to form a historic property. The choice and combination of materials reveal the preferences of those who created the property and indicate the availability of particular types of materials and technologies. Indigenous materials arc often the focus of regional building traditions and thereby help define an area's sense of time and place. A property must retain the key exterior materials dating from the period of its historic significance. If the property has been rehabilitated, the historic materials and significant features must have been preserved. The property must also be an actual historic resource, not a recreation; a recent structure fabricated to look historic is not eligible. Likewise, a property whose historic features and materials have been lost and then reconstructed is usually not eligible. (See Criteria Consideration E in art VII: How to Apply the Criteria Considerations for the conditions under which a reconstructed property can be eligible.) Workmanship Workmanship is the physical evidence of the crafts of a particular culture or people during any given period in history or prehistory. it is the evidence of artisans' labor and skill in constructing or altering a building, structure, object, or site. Workmanship can apply to the property as a whole or to its individual components. 'If can be expressed in vernacular methods of construction and plain finishes or in highly sophisticated configurations and ornamental detailing. It can be based on common traditions or innovative period techniques. Workmanship is important because it can furnish evidence of the technology of a craft, illustrate the aesthetic principles of a historic or prehistoric period, and reveal individual, http://www.nps.gov/nr/publications/bulletins/nrb15/nrb15_8.htm 9119/20(?8 Section VIII: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation, National Regist... ' tocai, regional, or national appIieations of both technological practices and aesthetic principles. Examples of workmanship in historic buildings include tooling, carving, painting, graining, turning, and joinery. Examples of workmanship in prehistoric contexts include Paleo-Indian Clovis projectile points; Archaic period beveled adzes; Hopewellian birdstone pipes; copper earspools and worked bone pendants; and Iroquoian effigy pipes. Feeling Feeling is a property's expression of the aesthetic or historic sense of a particular period of time. It results from the presence of physical features that, taken together, convey the property's historic character. For example, a rural historic district retaining original design, materials, workmanship, and setting will relate the feeling of agricultural life in the I9th century. A grouping of prehistoric petroglyphs, unmarred by graffiti and intrusions and located on its original isolated bluff, can evoke a sense of tribal spiritual life. Association Association is the direct link between an important historic event or person and a historic property. A property retains association if it is the place where the event or activity occurred and is sufficiently intact to convey that relationship to an observer. Like feeling, association requires the presence of physical features that convey a property's historic character. For example, a Revolutionary War battlefield whose natural and manmade elements have remained intact since the 18th century will xetain its quality of association with the battle. Because feeling and association depend on individual perceptions, their retention alone is never sufficient to support eligibility of a property for the National Register. ASSESSING INTEGRITY TN PROPERTIES Integrity is based on significance: why, where, and when a property is important. Only after significance is fully established can you proceed to the issue of integrity. The steps in assessing integrity are: . Define the essential physical features that must be present for a property to represent its significance. . Determine whether the essential physical features are visible enough to convey their significance. . Determine whether the property needs to be compared with similar properties. And, Determine, based on the significance and essential physical features, which aspects of integrity are particularly vital to the property being nominated and if they are present. Ultimately, the question of integrity is answered by whether ar not the property retains the http://www.nps.govlnr/publications/bulletins/nrb15(nrb15_8.htm 9!19/2008 Section VILI: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation, National Regist... _ identity for which it is significant. DEFINING THE ESSENTIAL PHYSICAL FEATURES All properties change aver time. It is not necessary for a property to retain all its historic physical features or characteristics. The property must retain, however, the essential physical features that enable it to convey its historic identity. The essential physical features are those features that define both why a property is significant (Applicable Criteria and Areas of Significance) and when it was significant (Periods of Significance}. They are the features without which a property can no longer be identified as, for instance, a late 19th century dairy barn or an early 20th century commercial district. Criteria A and S A property that is significant for its historic association is eligible if it retains the essential physical features that made up its character or appearance during the period of its association with the important event, historical pattern, or parson(s). Tf the property is a site {such as a treaty site) where there are no material cultural remains, the setting must be intact. Archeological sites eligible under Criteria A and B must be in overall good condition with excellent preservation of features, artifacts, and spatial relationships to the extent that these remains are able to convey important associations with events or persons. Criterion C A property important for illustrating a particular architectural style or construction technique must retain most of the physical features that constitute that style or technique. A property that has lost some historic materials or details can be eligible if it retains the majority of the features that illustrate its style in terms of the massing, spatial relationships, proportion, pattern of windows and doors, texture of materials, and ornamentation. The property is not eligible, however, if it retains some basic features conveying massing but has lost the majority of the features that once characterized its style. Archeological sites eligible under Criterion C must be in overall good condition with excellent preservation of features, artifacts, and spatial relationships to the extent that these remains are able to illustrate a site type, time period, method of construction, or work of a master. Criterion D For properties clzgible under Criterion D, including archeological sites and standing structures studied for their information potential, less attention is given to their overall condition, than it they were being considered under Criteria A, B, or C. Archeological sites, in particular, do not exist today exactly as they were formed. There are always cultural and natural processes that alter the deposited materials and their spatial relationships. For properties eligible under Criterion D, integrity is based upon the property's potential to ~ http:/Iwww.nps.gov/nr/publications/bulletinsJnrbl5/nrbl5_8.htm 9/19/2008 Section VIII: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation, National Regist... ~ ~ " ' yield specific data that addresses important research questions, such as those identified in the historic context documentation in the Statewide Comprehensive Preservation Plan or in the research design for projects meeting the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Archeological Docu?nentation. interiors Some historic buildings are virtually defined by their exteriors, and their contribution to the built environment can be appreciated even if their interiors are not accessible. Examples of this would include early examples of steel-framed skyscraper construction. The great advance in American technology and engineering made by these buildings can be read from the outside. The change in A.mexican popular taste duzing the 19th century, from the symmetry and simplicity of architectural styles based on classical precedents, to the expressions of High Victorian styles, with their combination of textuzes, colors, and asymmetrical forms, is readily apparent froxn the exteriors of these buildings. Other buildings "are" interiors. The Cleveland Arcade, that soaring 19th century glass- coveredshopping area, can only be appreciated from the inside. Other buildings in this category would be the great covered train sheds of the 19th century. In some cases the loss of an interior will disqualify properties from listing in the National Register--a historic concert hall noted for the beauty of its auditorium and its fine acoustic qualities would be the type of property that if it were to lose its interior, it would lose its value as a historic resource. In other cases, the overarching significance of a property's exterior can overcome the adverse effect of the loss of an interior. In borderline cases particular attention is paid to the significance of the property and the remaining historic features. Historic Districts Por a district to retain integrity as a whole, the majority of the components that make up the district's Historic character must possess integrity even if they are individually undistinguished. In addition, the relationships among the district's components must be substantially unchanged since the period of significance. When evaluating the impact of intrusions upon the district's integrity, take into consideration the relative number, size, scale, design, and location of the components that do not contribute to the significance. A district is not eligible if it contains so many alterations or new intrusions that it no longer conveys the sense of a historic environment. A component of a district cannot contribute to the significance if: . it has been substantially altered since the period of the district's significance or • it does not share the historic associations of the district. http://www.nps. gov/nr/publications bulletins/nrb 1 S/nrbl S_8.htm 9/19/2008 Section VIII: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation, National Regist... i VISIBILITY OF PHYSICAL FEATURES Properties eligible under Criteria A, B, and C must not only retain their essential physical features, but the features must be visible enough to convey their significance. This means that even if a property is physically intact, its integrity is gvesUionable if its significant features are concealed under modern construction. Archeological properties are often the exception to this; by nature they usually do not require visible features to convey their significance. Non-Iistoric Exteriors If the historic exterior building material is covered by non-historic material (such as modern siding), the property can still be eligible if the significant form, feah~res, and detailing are not obscured. If a property's exterior is covered by anon-historic false-front or curtain wall, the property will not qualify under Criteria A, B, or C, because it does not retain the visual quality necessary to convey historic or architectural significance. Such a property also cannot be considered a contributing element in a historic district, because it does not add to the district's sense of tune and place. If the false front, curtain wall, ornon-historic siding is removed and the original building materials are intact, then the property's integrity can be re- evaluated. Property Contained within Another Property Some properties contain an earlier structure that formed the nucleus for later construction. The exterior property, if not eligible in its own right, can qualify on the basis of the interior property only if the interior property can yield significant information about a specific construction technique or material, such as rammed earth or tabby. The interior property cannot be used as the basis for eligibility if it has been so altered that it no longer contains the features that could provide important information, or if the presence of important information cannot be demonstrated. Sunken Vessels A sunken vessel can be eligible under Criterion C as embodying the distinctive characteristics of a method of construction if it is structurally intact. A deteriorated sunken vessel, no longer stnicturally intact, can be eligible under Criterion D if the remains of either the vessel or its contents is capable of yielding significant information. For further information, refer to National Register Bulletin: N~minatirz~ .historic Vessels and Shipwrecks to the IVatianal Register of Historic Places. Natural Features A natural feature that is associated with a historic event or trend, such as a rock formation that served as a trail marker during westward expansion, must retain its historic appearance, unobscured by modern construction or landfill. Otherwise it is not eligible, even though it remains intact. http:l/www.nps.gov/nr/publications!bulletins/nrbl5lnrb.l5_8.htm 9/19/20Q8 Section VIII: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation, National Regist_.. ~ ' COMPARING SIMILAR PROPERTIES Far some properties, comparison with similar properties should be considered during the evaluation of 'integrity. Such comparison may be important in deciding what physical features are essential to properties of that type. In instances where it has not been determined what physical features a property must possess in order for it to reflect the significance of a historic context, comparison with similar properties should be undertaken during the evaluation of integrity. This situation arises when schalarly work has not been done on a particular property type or when surviving examples of a property type are extremely rare. (See Comparing Related Properties in Part V: How to Evaluate a Property within its Flistoric Context.) Rare Examples of a Property Type Comparative information is particularly important to consider when evaluating the integrity of a property that is a rare surviving example of its type. The property must have the essential physical features that enable it to convey its historic character or inforrzzation. The rarity and poor condition, however, of other extant examples of the type may justify accepting a greater degree of alteration or fewer features, provided that enough of the property survives for it to be a significant resource. Eligible . A one-room schoolhouse that has had all original exterior siding replaced and a replacement roof that does not exactly replicate the original roof profile can bs eligible if the other extant rare examples have received an even greater degree of alteration, such as the subdivision of the original one-roonz plan. Not Eligible . A mill site contains information on low site patterning reflects historic functional requirements, but parts of the site have been destroyed. The site is not eligible for its information potential if a comparison of other mill sites reveals more intact properties with complete information. DETERMINING THE RELEVANT ASPECTS OF INTEGRITY Each type of property depends on certain aspects of integrity, more than others, to express its historic significance. Determining which of the aspects is most important to a particular property requires an understanding of the property's significance and its essential physical . features. Criteria A and B A property important for associiation with an event, historical pattern, or person(s) ideally might retain some features of all seven aspects of integrity: location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. Integrity of design and workmanship, dean ~ll~ http://www.nps.gov/nr/publications/bulletins/nrb15/nrb15_8.htzn 9/19/2008 Section VIII: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation, National Regist... - - " however, nvght not be as important to the significance, and would not be relevant if the property were a site. A basic integrity test for a property associated with an important event ar person is whether a historical contemporary would recognize the property as it exists today. For archeological sites that are eligible under Critez7a A and B, the seven aspects of integrity can be applied in much the same way as they are to buildings, structures, or objects. Tt is important to note, however, that the site must have demonstrated its ability to convey its significance, as apposed to sites eligible under Criterion ll where only the potential to yield information is required. Eligible A mid-19th century waterpowered mill important for its association with an area's industrial development is eligible if: . it is still on its original site (Location), and . the important features of its setting are intact (Setting}, and . it retains most of its historic materials (Materials), and . it has the basic features expressive of its design and function, such as configuration, proportions, and window pattern (Design). Nat Eligible A mid-19th century watcrpowered mill important for its association with an area's industrial development is not eligible if: - . it has been moved (Location, Setting, Feeling, and Association), or . substantial amounts of new materials have been incorporated (Materials, Workmanship, and Feeling), or . it no longer retains basic design features that convey its historic appearance or function (Design, Workmanship, and Feeling). Criterion C A property significant under Criterion C must retain those physical features that characterize the type, period, or method of canstniction that the property represents. Retention of design, workmanship, and materials will usually be more important than location, setting, feeling, and association. Location and setting will be important, however, for chose properties whose design is a reflection of their immediate environment (such as designed landscapes and bridges). For archeological sites that are eligible under Criterion C, the seven aspects of integrity can be applied in much the same way as they are to buildings; structures, or objects. Tt is important to note, however, that the site must have demonstrated its ability to convey its http://www.nps.govlnr/publicatians/bulletins/nrb 15/nrb 5_8.htm ~~C~~-i~ Section VIII: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation, National Reg... ~ ~ ' significance, as opposed to sites eligible under Criterion D where only the potential to yield information is required. Eligible A 19th century wooden covered bridge, important for illustrating a construction type, is eligible if: . the essential features of its design are intact, such as abutments, piers, roof configuration, and trusses (Design, Workmanship, and Feeling), and . most of the historic materials are present (Materials, Workmanship, and Feeling), and . evidence of the craft of wooden bridge technology remains, such as the form and assembly technique of the trusses (Workmanship). . Since the design of a bridge relates directly to its function as a transportation crossing, it is also important that the bridge still be situated over a waterway (Setting, Location, Feeling, and Association). Not Eligible Far a 19th century wooden covered bridge, important for its construction type, replacement of some materials of the flooring, siding, and roofing would not necessarily damage its integrity. Integrity would he lost, however, if: . the abutments, piers, or trusses were substantially altered (Design, Workmanship, and Feeling) or . considerable amounts of new materials were incorporated (Materials, Workmanship, and Feeling). . Because environment is a strong factor in the design of this property type, the bridge would also be ineligible if it no longer stood in a place that conveyed its function as a crossing (Setting, Location, Feeling, and Association). Criterion D For properties eligible under Criterion D, setting and feeling may not have direct bearing on the property's ability to yield important information. Evaluation of integrity probably will focus primarily on the location, design, materials, and perhaps workmanship. Eligible A multicomponent prehistoric site important for yielding data on changing subsistence patterns can be eligible if: • floral or faunal remains are found in clear association with cultural material (Materials and Association) and lam tl~ ~ http://www.nps.gov/nr/publications/bulletins/nrb15/nrb15_8.htm 9/19/2008 ' V Section VIII: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation, National Reg... . the site exhibits stratigraphic separation of cultural components (Location). Not Eligible A muiticomponent prehistoric site important for yielding data on changing subsistence patterns would not be eligible if: . floral or faunal remains were so badly decomposed as to make identification impossible (Materials), or . floral or faunal remains were disturbed in such a manner as to make their association with cultural reaxaains ambiguous (Association), or • the site has lost its stratigraphic context due to subsequent land alterations (Location). Eligible A Iithic scatter site important for yielding data on lithic technology during the Late Archaic period can be eligible if: . the site contains Iithic debitage, finished stone tools, hammerstones, or antler flakers (Material and Design}, and • the site contains datable material (Association}. , Not Eligible A Iithic scatter site important for yielding data on lithic technology during the Late Archaic period would not be eligible if: . the site contains natural deposits of lithic materials that are impossible to distinguish from culturally modified Iithic material (Design) or . the site does not contain any. temporal diagnostic evidence that could link the site to the Late Archaic period {Association).

(This area must hove historic integrity and contribute to the property's historic significance.) HISTORIC SITES • For historic sues, select boundaries that enrompass the area where the historic events took place. Include only portiUns of the site retaining historic integrity and documented to have been directly associated with the event. HISTORIC AND ARCHITECTURAL llISTRICTS • Select boundaries to encompass the single area of land containing the significant concentration of buildings, sites, structures, or objects making up the distrkt. The district's significance and historic integrity should help determine the boundaries. Consider the following factors: 1. Visual barriers that mark a change in the historic character of the area or that break the continuity of the district, such as new constntction, highways, or development of a different character. 2. Visual changes in the character of the area due to different architectural styles, types or periods, or to a decline in the concentration ofcontributing resources. 3. Boundaries at a specific tune in histor}~, such as the original city limits or tl~e Iegally recorded boundaries of a hot.rsinb subdivision, estate, or ranch. 4. Dearly differentiated patterns c?f historical development, such as commercial versus residential or industrial. • A histork district may contain d iscontiguous e}emezzts only under the folloti~~ing circumstances: 7.. When visual continuity is nut a factor of historic significance, when resources are geographically separate, and when the intervening space lacks significance: for example, a cemetery located outside a rural village. 2. When manmade resources are interconnected by natural features that are excluded from the National legister listing: Ear example, a canal system that incorporates natural watertivays. 3. When a portion of a district bas been separated by intervening development or highway construction and when the separa#erl portion has sufficient significance and integrity to meet the l~tationai Register criteria.

We have made a committed effort to work with the Staff to address the Board's comments and explore all alternatives to demolition. Our conclusion, along with the Staff's, is that the majority of the Lund Hotel has been significantly removed, altered or datnal;cd so that it is no longer intact and it would Ue necessary to reconstruct the building. Wlvle the cottage is more intact, its setting has changed over the years limiting its significance with the ],und I Iotel. Previously, the Staff recommended not to pursue designation of either building based on retaining the cottage onsite or relocating it offsite. On August 20`h, we presented the Board with two alternatives to the demolition of the cottage in response to the comments we received from the Staff and Board. On October 1", the Board initiated landmarking the cottage and the entire site. We feel that landmarking the site and requiring design review for the new construction does not provide historic context to the Lund I Iotcl, the Lund family or the historic setting. I Iowever, we believe landmarking the cottage will retain some of the history associated with the Lund's. We support landmarking the cottage and providing a 20' setback to preserve its setting. The setback creates an open view angle from the alley and a 35' x 70' area (2,450 sf) which amounts to 15`% of the total parcel for the 485 sf cottage (see attached diagrams). The area dedicated ro the restored cottage will be a landscaped yard and inchzde parking for the cottage. The space created by the landmark boundary will integrate into the open space between the new buildings on the site, in addition, this will also tic into the neighboring property to the cast at 1918, 1928 and 1938 Pearl Street i.c. East l:nd HOA. Finally, we will ensure that the future buildings on the site "will respect the charactc;r of the setting, not by imitating surrounding structures, but by beuig compatible". We will provide reference to the historical and cultural context of the Lund family as recommended by the Staff and Board. lu reciprocation of our continued efforts and cooperation, we request the Board does not pursue landmarking the site and accepts the 2U' cottage landmark boundary.
