HISTORICAL CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT The subject property is located in the Granville Park No. 2 subdivision. It is south of the Buena Vista Lagoon, west of Carlsbad Boulevard in proximity to the Army Navy Academy and faces the Pacific Ocean. In 1923 the Oceanside Blade reported that Alfred G. Blair of Los Angeles was laying out a ten-acre subdivision called Granville Park, which included “cement curbs, gutters, walks, marbelite electroliers, grading and improving streets under the direction of Robert Cowles, engineer for the Land Company.” It went on to say: “This subdivision together with the Palisades promises to make Carlsbad a community of hundreds of beautiful homes.” In 1926 there was discussion about a second subdivision of Granville Park at a December meeting of the Carlsbad chamber of commerce. The Chamber was asked to support the approval of the plat of the subdivision by the Oceanside city council. This was a necessary procedure under a state law which required that the map of “any subdivision within three miles of an incorporated town must be approved by the governing body of that town before it can be legally filed with the county recorder.” Objection had been made to a narrow forty- foot street in the subdivision. Sam Fraser stated that while he objected to narrow streets in general, was but a small part of a street along the entire front of Carlsbad, already laid out and with the plats long ago filed and approved. Members Newcomb, Wethern and Fraser were asked to make this recommendation at the next Oceanside City Council Meeting. The Oceanside City Council was asked to approve Subdivision 2 of Granville Park, but it was “laid over for later consideration pending clearing up the question as to whether or not it complies with the new county ordinance concerning beach driveways.” The subdivision was approved and filed on June 18, 1927. In 1931, the Oceanside Blade Tribune reported that “the Foss Company, wealthy Pasadena subdividers and builders is making its first move in the development of the Granville Park tract in Carlsbad by starting the building of an attractive tract office on the property near the Red Apple Inn. C. DeM. Bogert and Paul Judson, officials of the Pasadena Company when in Carlsbad last week, announced that the promotion of the property would be carried on moderately but would follow a well-designed plan destined eventually to convert the subdivision into one of the most attractive and modern residential districts along the coast.” Later that year the Blade reported that “Granville Park, Carlsbad, shows a healthy activity with several fine lots sold. The first purchaser to build was F. A. Terlutter, a contractor from Los Angeles, who is completing his home on a choice piece of beach frontage.” Ocean Street remained largely unimproved as late as 1938. By 1947 aerial photographs depict a well-established neighborhood. 5 HISTORICAL OVERVIEW In 1881 John Frazier settled on 160 acres, just south of the Buena Vista Lagoon and established a small settlement referred to as "Frazier's Station." He drilled a well looking for much needed water in 1883 and found water that he claimed to have cured of him illnesses relating to stomach and kidney problems. The water was said to have been "analyzed" and it was claimed to have the same qualities of water found in Karlsbad, Bohemia. Gerhard Schutte and D. D. Wadsworth purchased the water rights, and together with other investors, formed the Carlsbad Land and Water Company and laid out a town site by the name of Carlsbad. Mr. Schutte built a home that later became the Twin Inns, a long-standing landmark located on Carlsbad Boulevard. By about 1888 a train depot and several stores were built, and the small village prospered with a population of about 300. Carlsbad suffered an indignity in 1907 when the name on its railroad station was shortened to Carl. With great protest, petitions were filed, and the name was soon restored. Franz P. Hosp, a florist and nurseryman from Riverside, planted 45 acres of land with over forty thousand eucalyptus trees overlooking the Buena Vista Lagoon. In 1914, the South Coast Land Company purchased the properties of the then-defunct water company, and the community became largely farming. A flower growing industry began in the early 1920’s. Sam Thompson, owner of the first avocado orchard in Carlsbad, was largely responsible for making Carlsbad “The Home of the Avocado”. The main business district was located on First Street, now known as State Street, it was one of only two paved roads, the other being Lincoln, now known as Carlsbad Boulevard. From 1918 for many years, the Twin Inns, owned by E.G. Kentner, was one of the most popular stops along the Coast highway in North County and was famous for its chicken dinners. In 1925 Roy Chase built the Los-Diego Hotel on the southwest corner of State and Grand. It was managed by Mr. and Mrs. C. T. McKeehan and catered to the traveling public. The unusual name, of course, referred to the two large cities north and south of Carlsbad, Los Angeles and San Diego and was “the logical stopping place on the main coast highway between these two cities.” It was a two-story Spanish-style structure, which boasted of private baths, hot water, and steam heat. Carlsbad was certainly proud of its new addition, but the establishment would suffer after the coming realignment of the coast highway, which took traffic directly to Lincoln Street. 6 The California Highway Commission applied to the Railroad Commission for permission to construct an overpass over the tracks of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Company at Carlsbad. Construction of the crossing began in April of 1927 and was completed in August. With this new alignment the Highway 101 now bypassed State Street and ran directly along Lincoln Street, or present-day Carlsbad Boulevard. New businesses such as the Sea Auto Inn and the Carlsbad Mineral Springs Hotel were soon constructed along the new route to take full advantage of the increasing traffic through the city. One of the first businesses to take advantage of the increased traffic on the Coast Highway was The Red Apple Inn. Designed by Robert Baird, it touted 20 guest rooms, a restaurant and true to its name, was decorated with an apple motif. In 1936 the Red Apple Inn was purchased by A. C. Anderson and later became a part of the Army Navy Academy when the institution relocated from Pacific Beach. One of Carlsbad’s most famous residents, actor Leo Carrillo, purchased the Los Kiotes homestead in 1937, a small portion of which would later become a city park. By 1950, downtown street names changed from First to State with the remaining numbered streets changing to Roosevelt, Madison, Jefferson, and Harding, respectively. (Elm Street was later renamed Carlsbad Village Drive.) The City of Carlsbad was incorporated in 1952 to avoid being annexed to the City of Oceanside. Dewey McClellan served as its first mayor. Palomar Airport opened in 1959. Built by Young and Arrieta Construction Co., it was located southeast of Carlsbad city limits, before it was annexed by the City of Carlsbad in 1978 and eventually renamed McClellan-Palomar Airport. Carlsbad is home to many large companies such ViaSat and Calloway Golf. In 1999 Carlsbad welcomed Legoland California Resort, LLC, the first Legoland theme park outside of Europe. 7 IV. METHODS AND RESULTS Background studies consisting of research from the Carlsbad Historical Society, San Diego County Master Property Record, a field check of the property, historical photographs, census records, research of various newspapers, and recorded deeds were conducted as part of the project. Primary, Continuation and Building, Structure and Object forms for the resource were completed and appear in this report as Appendix A. DESCRIPTION OF RESOURCE The dwelling at 2668 Ocean Street is a Mid Century Ranch Style originally built as a two-bedroom house with a detached garage. Made of adobe brick, the house has a hipped roof with exposed eaves and is covered in shingles. An adobe brick chimney once located on the south facing roofline has been removed. The front of the dwelling, or west elevation, is bordered by a low brick wall. This enclosure is not original but complements the house exterior. A small brick patio leads to the entryway, which features a wood paneled door under a small overhang. To the right of the entrance is a large multipaned fixed window; to the left is a single double-hung window. Windows are original to the house, except for those added to the addition. On the south facing façade are two double-hung windows. This elevation is bordered by a cement walkway. The north elevation of the original home includes two double hung windows and a doorway. A narrow walkway made of varying cement and a brick is bordered by a wooden fence. The east elevation or rear of the original dwelling includes a wooden door with glass panels. To the right (or north) of this doorway is an addition; a small patio which has been enclosed. The exterior to this addition is covered in stucco and features a set of French doors. A larger addition, which connects the original house and the garage, is covered in vertical wood siding on this north elevation. This addition is covered with a stucco finish on the rear patio (facing south). What may have been a “breezeway” (built at a later date) has been enclosed to create additional living space and the garage has also been converted. The roof of this addition has faux eaves to mimic the original look of the dwelling. The east elevation of the property abuts with the property directly behind it. Located on the southeast corner of the property is a small wooden shed. Originally the driveway, located to the south of the residence, continued to the rear of the home to the detached 8 garage, in the northeast corner of the property. The driveway now serves as a parking pad. A view of the resource is shown in Figure 4 with additional views in Appendix C. The resource is in good condition. HISTORY OF OWNERSHIP History of ownership was determined through San Diego County Master Property Records and Recorded Deeds through the San Diego County Assessor/Recorder’s Office. The subject property, located in the Granville Park Subdivision No. 2, was originally owned by Alfred Granville Blair. Blair was born in 1877 in New Jersey where he was in the real estate and insurance business. In 1910 he and his wife Carrie along with their daughter Naomi moved to Pasadena, California. Carrie Blair died just one year later due to a health condition and Alfred eventually remarried. Blair filed his new subdivision in 1927 and that year opened the Red Apple Inn which is now the home of the Army Navy Academy. Alfred G. Blair died in Pasadena, California in 1950. His obituary noted that he was a member of the American Bible Society and the Pasadena Presbyterian Church. He was survived by his second wife Susie Blair, daughter Naomi and son Granville. Lot 82 of the Granville Park No. 2 was sold to Fred B. and Harriet A. Young. After Fred Young’s death in 1932, it became the sole property of his widow. In 1945 she sold the unimproved lot to Floyd W. and Gertrude E. Johnston. The Johnston’s had the subject residence built in 1946, per San Diego County tax assessment records. The Johnston’s may have occupied the house soon after it was constructed, but by 1949 it was used as a rental for the next decade or so. An ad in the Los Angeles Times read: “2 bedroom, 2 lots, dobie garage, excellent condition.” The Oceanside Blade Tribune ad read: 2 bedroom, adobe house, 2 lots, patio, many extras.” Major and Mrs. E. W. Gallagher were renting the home in 1951. In 1954 William C. and Marion Schick (USMC) were renting the home, according to a 1954 directory. In 1957 to 1959 MSgt Homer and Dorothy Richardson were tenants. Floyd and Gertrude eventually built a residence directly east of the subject property at 2669 Garfield Street. Gertrude Johnston died in 1960 and in 1961 Floyd Johnston sold the property to David and Mary C. Thayer of Hesperia. Two years later in 1963 the Thayer’s sold the residence to Don P. and Gloria A. Hoefer of Covina. 9 Born in 1917 in Chicago, Illinois, Don Paul Hoefer was living in Los Angeles, California by 1938 where he applied for a cosmetology license. During World War II Hoefer was serving in the military and by 1944 he and his wife Gloria and daughter Bonnie were living in Encinitas. By the 1950s Don Hoefer was in the real estate business in Los Angeles. In 1963 Don Hoefer submitted plans for an addition to the residence to the City of Carlsbad (a sketch referenced in the permit was not available). Don and Gloria eventually divorced, and Gloria retained ownership of the residence. She operated her own business, Medical Staffing Services in Carlsbad. After she retired, she relocated to the east coast but returned to Carlsbad in 1983. In 1990 the property was transferred to the Gloria A. Hoefer Trust. Gloria Hoefer died in 1992 and the property was transferred to Gloria’s son Don P. Hoefer, Jr. in 1994. In 2011 the residence was sold to the present owners.

Ranch-style architecture originated in Southern California in the mid 1930s by renowned builder and architect Cliff May. His homes were expansive, with bedroom wings separated from living spaces, the dwelling stretching into yards, and courtyards and patios mingling with interior spaces. The ranch house proved a comfortable, spacious family house and "one that also offered a life style." Jocelyn Gibbs wrote about May's influences in an article entitled The California Hacienda: "He spent his childhood summers at his aunt’s Las Flores ranch in North San Diego. This experience instilled in him a vision of the ideal California house: a sprawling structure, low to the ground and open to the landscape. The Estudillo House was another model for May. His ancestor, Jose Maria Estudillo, had built the historic adobe in San Diego in 1827. May’s familiarity with the vernacular buildings of California’s settlement period was exceptional, it was also personal. '“To me, when we lived on the ranch, with cross-ventilation and rooms spread out and around courtyards, basic old California plans, it seemed to be a much better way to build and live.”' "May’s very first houses, built in San Diego with financial help from his future father-in- law and real estate developer Roy C. Lichty, caught the public’s imagination. They sold quickly and no wonder. May evoked a romantic California past by creating two basic styles. He built “haciendas” with wood and rough plaster—to resemble adobe— and clay tile roofs. A canny salesman, May often held openings for his houses at night so that garden lighting enhanced the romantic, rusticated surfaces and mix of Spanish, Mexican and California Mission décor." Ranch house architecture on a smaller scale, rather than large haciendas or ranchos, became popular and in the 1940s, the Ranch was one of the small house types financed by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) after WWII, with the increased need to produce housing for veterans and their families with limited budgets. The Ranch house is noted for its wide and low form, and “rambling” floor plan and simple detailing. Exterior materials varied and were often influenced by the geographic area and included stone, brick and stucco or wood siding. Low-pitched hip roofs are most common and feature roof overhangs with exposed rafters. Roofing materials were commonly asphalt shingles. Ranch homes feature a wide variety of window types: linear window; awning, hopper, casement, and double hung windows. The large picture window became a notable feature on ranch style homes. Ranch style homes typically provide a recessed or protected front entry in the way of a covered porch. The subject resource, while built in the Ranch house style with its adobe brick exterior, hipped roof, and large picture window, is missing some of its notable elements, as it is neither wide nor “rambling”. The house at 2668 Ocean Street is built in the shape of a square or small rectangle, rather than a long and horizontal façade. Ranch style homes 13 typically feature attached garages or carports, as well as sizeable outdoor space with large lawns and expansive views. The original detached garage was built behind the dwelling and has now been converted. The addition which connects the original house and the garage conversion, along with the enclosure of the back patio, and the removal of the brick chimney has adversely affected the original appearance and integrity of the structure. Collectively, the lack of character- defining Ranch, coupled with changes to the building, has resulted in a property that is not architecturally significant. V. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT Under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), a significant historic resource is one that is eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources/National Register of Historic Places or other local historic register or is deemed significant in a historical resource survey (Section 5024.1(g) of the Public Resources Code). To be eligible for listing under the California Register/National Register (the standards of which are both very similar), a resource must be significant within a historic context and must also meet one or more of the following criteria: Criterion A: Be associated with an event, or series of events, that have made a significant contribution to the broad pattern of history. Criterion B: Have an unequivocal association with the lives of people significant in the past. Criterion C: Embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or represents the work of a master, or possesses high artistic values, or represents a significant, distinguishable entity whose components lack individual distinction. Criterion D: Have yielded or may be likely to yield information important in local, state or national prehistory or history. VI. REGISTER STANDARDS CALIFORNIA REGISTER CRITERIA When evaluated within its historic context, under CEQA a property must be shown to be significant for one or more of the four Criteria for Evaluation – A, B, C, or D. The Criteria describe how properties are significant for their association with important events or persons, for their importance in design or construction, or for their information 14 potential. In addition, a property must not only be shown to be significant under the California Register criteria, but it also must have integrity. Criterion A: Event. To be considered for listing under Criterion A, a property must be associated with one or more events important in the defined historic context. The event or trends must clearly be important within the associated context. Mere association with historic events or trends is not enough, in and of itself, to qualify under Criterion A – the property’s specific association must be considered important as well. Criterion B: Person. Criterion B applies to properties associated with individuals whose specific contributions to history can be identified and documented. Persons “significant in our past” refers to individuals whose activities are demonstrably important within a local, state or national historic context. The criterion is generally restricted to those properties that illustrate (rather than commemorate) a person’s important achievements. The persons associated with the property must be individually significant within a historic event. Significant individuals must be directly associated with the nominated property. Properties eligible under Criterion B are usually those associated with a person’s productive life, reflecting the time period when he or she achieved significance. Speculative associations are not acceptable. Documentation must make clear how the nominated property represents an individual’s significant contributions. A property must retain integrity from the period of its significant historic associations Architects are often represented by their works, which are eligible under Criterion C. Their homes, however, can be eligible for consideration under Criterion B, if these properties were personally associated with the individual. Criterion C: Design/Construction: Properties may be eligible under Criterion C if they embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or that represent the work of a master, or that possess high artistic values, or that represent a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction. Properties which embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction refer to the way in which a property was conceived, designed, or fabricated by a people or culture in past periods of history. Distinctive characteristics are the physical features or traits that commonly recur in individual types, periods, or methods of construction. To be eligible, a property must clearly contain enough of those characteristics to be considered a true representative of a particular type, period, or method of construction. A master is a figure of generally recognized greatness in a field, a known craftsman of consummate skill, or an anonymous craftsman whose work is distinguishable from others by its characteristic style and quality. The property must express a particular phase in the development of the master’s career, an aspect of his or her work, or a particular them in his or her craft. 15 Criterion D: Information Potential. Properties may be eligible under Criterion D if they have yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history. Integrity. Integrity is the ability of a property to convey and maintain its significance. A property must not only be shown to be significant under the California Register criteria, but it also must have integrity. To retain historic integrity, a property will always possess several, and usually most, of the aspects. The seven key aspects of integrity include: location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling and association. VII. APPLICATION OF CRITERIA FOR 2668 OCEAN STREET Criterion A (association with a significant historical event): No known significant event occurred on the property, before or after the resource was constructed. The property is not significant under Criterion A. Criterion B (association with a historic person or persons): No historical evidence was found which would suggest that the 2668 Ocean Street residence was ever associated with any persons or events significant in local, state, or national history. None of the persons identified with the property performed any activities, achievements or contributions which were demonstrably important within the City, state, or nation. Therefore, the property does not qualify under Criterion B. Criterion C (represents a significant design or style of construction): The subject residence is a Mid Century Ranch single-family but lacks certain elements and additions are not in keeping with the original. The dwelling is not considered a representative example of that architectural style and is not considered a valuable example of the use of indigenous materials or craftsmanship. The architect and builder are unknown. A resource must express a particular phase in the development of a master builder's career, an aspect of his/her work, or a particular idea or theme in the craft. The work of an unidentified craftsman is eligible if it rises above the level of workmanship of the other properties encompassed by the historic context. In addition, the property is not eligible under Criterion C simply because it was designed by a prominent architect, builder, etc. but must be the work of a master. Criterion C requires that the resource be a notable work of a Master, and that must be clearly demonstrated in the nomination. The subject resource is made of adobe brick which is not an uncommon building material for a modern home. Adobe is among the oldest construction materials in the world. The thick walls provide insulation, helping to keep homes cool during the day and warm at night. Locally homes designed by Larry and Jack Weir began making adobe brick homes in 1947. In an article published in 2020, The San Diego Union Tribune stated that "about 16 200 of the Weirs’ adobe homes are still scattered about North County. Many are in Escondido, where the company was headquartered." Tom McCoy was quoted in the article, saying that "By the early ’60s, Weir homes had become the gold standard for adobes." However, the subject resource was built prior to 1947 when the Weirs began building adobe homes in San Diego County, and there is no indication or finding that attributes the Weirs as a builder of this home. In fact, like Cliff May, the "father of the Modern Ranch House", the Weirs were known for expansive homes with archways, and unique features such as round ceilings and curved walls, of which the house at 2668 Ocean Street bears no similarities. The resource is not significant under Criterion C. Criterion D (ability to yield further information): It is unlikely that any further information of importance would be revealed with additional study. The resource is not significant under Criterion D. VIII. INTEGRITY Integrity is the ability of a property to convey and maintain its significance. A property must not only be shown to be significant under the California Register criteria, but it also must have integrity. To retain historic integrity, a property will always possess several, and usually most, of the aspects. The seven key aspects of integrity include: location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. Location. Location is the place where the historic property was constructed or the place where the historic event occurred. FINDING: The location of the dwelling has not changed therefore it retains the location element for integrity purposes. Design. Design is the combination of elements that create the form, plan, space, structure, and 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. FINDING: Over the course of its existence, the 2668 Ocean Street residence has been modified and altered from that of its original appearance. As noted elsewhere in this report, these changes include the removal of the brick chimney, the enclosure of the original rear patio, conversion of the detached garage and addition. As a result, the property does not retain its design element for integrity purposes. 17 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 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. FINDING: The setting in which the resource is located has changed considerably and is surrounded by several larger homes and newer residential construction. Although in proximity to the Pacific Ocean, the home does not have a view of it, as it once did when it was built. It does not retain its setting for integrity purposes. 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. FINDING: The building material of adobe brick is original, as well as the front entryway door, and the windows prior to the addition. The resource retains sufficient material element for integrity purposes. Workmanship. Workmanship is the physical evidence of the crafts of a particular culture or people during any given period in history or prehistory. It 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, local, regional, or national applications of both technological practices and aesthetic principles. FINDING: There is no evidence of a crafts of a particular culture or people, nor a quality of workmanship demonstrated in the construction of this resource. The dwelling does not exhibit or reflect a quality of workmanship element for integrity purposes. Feeling. Feeling is a property's expression of the aesthetic or historic sense of a particular period of time. FINDING: While the residence at 2668 Ocean Street does convey an historic sense of particular time from the period during which it was built (i.e. 1946), the dwelling has been modified, which in part has adversely affected the original feeling of the home. Therefore, the property does not retain its feeling element for integrity purposes. Association. Association is the direct link between an important historic event or person and a historic property. FINDING: The subject resource is not linked to any historic important event or person. 18 IX. CONCLUSION No historical evidence was identified which would support any contention that the 2668 Ocean Street residence exemplifies or reflects a special or unique aspect of Carlsbad’s general historical development; nor does it exemplify or reflect a unique aspect of the City's history. The building does not retain its original design element for integrity purposes. In addition, the subject resource is not significant with respect to any form of historical development. The residence at 2668 Ocean Street is not eligible for listing under any Criterion, does not rise to any level of significance, and therefore mitigation measures are not required.

It is south of the Buena Vista Lagoon, west of Carlsbad Boulevard in proximity to the Army Navy Academy and faces the Pacific Ocean. The legal description is: All that certain real property situated in the County of San Diego, State of California, described as follows: Lot 82 and the Southwesterly 5 feet of Lot 89 of Granville Park No. 2, in the City of Carlsbad, County of San Diego, State of California, according to Map No. 2037, filed in the Office of the County Recorder of said County Recorder of said County, June 18, 1927. The Assessor Parcel Number is 203-141-08. *P3a. Description: (Describe resource and its major elements. Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries) The dwelling at 2668 Ocean Street is a Mid Century Ranch Style originally built as a two-bedroom house with a detached garage. Made of adobe brick, the house has a hipped roof with exposed eaves and is covered in shingles. An adobe brick chimney once located on the south facing roofline has been removed. The front of the dwelling, or west elevation, is bordered by a low brick wall. This enclosure is not original but complements the house exterior. A small brick patio leads to the entryway, which features a wood paneled door under a small overhang. To the right of the entrance is a large multi-paned fixed window; to the left is a single double-hung window. Windows are original to the house, except for those added to the addition. On the south facing façade are two double-hung windows. This elevation is bordered by a cement walkway. The north elevation of the original home includes two double hung windows and a doorway. A narrow walkway made of varying cement and a brick is bordered by a wooden fence. The east elevation or rear of the original dwelling includes a wooden door with glass panels. To the right (or north) of this doorway is an addition; a small patio which has been enclosed. The exterior to this addition is covered in stucco and features a set of French doors. A larger addition, which connects the original house and the garage, is covered in vertical wood siding on this north elevation. This addition is covered with a stucco finish on the rear patio (facing south). What may have been a “breezeway” (built at a later date) has been enclosed to create additional living space and the garage has also been converted. The roof of this addition has faux eaves to mimic the original look of the dwelling. The east elevation of the property abuts with the property directly behind it. Located on the southeast corner of the property is a small wooden shed. Originally the driveway, located to the south of the residence, continued to the rear of the home to the detached garage, in the northeast corner of the property. The driveway now serves as a parking pad. P3b. Resource Attributes: (List attributes and codes) HP2 – Single family dwelling *P4.

Hawthorne *Date 12/08/2021  Continuation  Update History of ownership was determined through San Diego County Master Property Records and Recorded Deeds through the San Diego County Assessor/Recorder’s Office. The subject property, located in the Granville Park Subdivision No. 2, was originally owned by Alfred Granville Blair. Blair was born in 1877 in New Jersey where he was in the real estate and insurance business. In 1910 he and his wife Carrie along with their daughter Naomi moved to Pasadena, California. Carrie Blair died just one year later due to a health condition and Alfred eventually remarried. Blair filed his new subdivision in 1927 and that year opened the Red Apple Inn which is now the home of the Army Navy Academy. Alfred G. Blair died in Pasadena, California in 1950. His obituary noted that he was a member of the American Bible Society and the Pasadena Presbyterian Church. He was survived by his second wife Susie Blair, daughter Naomi and son Granville. Lot 82 of the Granville Park No. 2 was sold to Fred B. and Harriet A. Young. After Fred Young’s death in 1932, it became the sole property of his widow. In 1945 she sold the unimproved lot to Floyd W. and Gertrude E. Johnston. The Johnston’s had the subject residence built in 1946, per San Diego County tax assessment records. The Johnston’s may have occupied the house soon after it was constructed, but by 1949 it was used as a rental for the next decade or so. An ad in the Los Angeles Times read: “2 bedroom, 2 lots, dobie garage, excellent condition.” The Oceanside Blade Tribune ad read: 2 bedroom, adobe house, 2 lots, patio, many extras.” Major and Mrs. E. W. Gallagher were renting the home in 1951. In 1954 William C. and Marion Schick (USMC) were renting the home, according to a 1954 directory. In 1957 to 1959 MSgt Homer and Dorothy Richardson were tenants. Floyd and Gertrude eventually built a residence directly east of the subject property at 2669 Garfield Street. Gertrude Johnston died in 1960 and in 1961 Floyd Johnston sold the property to David and Mary C. Thayer of Hesperia. Two years later in 1963 the Thayer’s sold the residence to Don P. and Gloria A. Hoefer of Covina. Born in 1917 in Chicago, Illinois, Don Paul Hoefer was living in Los Angeles, California by 1938 where he applied for a cosmetology license. During World War II Hoefer was serving in the military and by 1944 he and his wife Gloria and daughter Bonnie were living in Encinitas. By the 1950s Don Hoefer was in the real estate business in Los Angeles. In 1963 Don Hoefer submitted plans for an addition to the residence to the City of Carlsbad (a sketch referenced in the permit was not available). Don and Gloria eventually divorced, and Gloria retained ownership of the residence. She operated her own business, Medical Staffing Services in Carlsbad. After she retired, she relocated to the east coast but returned to Carlsbad in 1983. In 1990 the property was transferred to the Gloria A. Hoefer Trust. Gloria Hoefer died in 1992 and the property was transferred to Gloria’s son Don P. Hoefer, Jr. in 1994. In 2011 the residence was sold to the present owners.

Hawthorne *Date 12/08/2021  Continuation  Update *B5. Architectural Style: Ranch The resource at 2668 Ocean Street is a small Mid-Century Ranch house. Ranch-style architecture originated in Southern California in the mid 1930s by renowned builder and architect Cliff May. His homes were expansive, with bedroom wings separated from living spaces, the dwelling stretching into yards, and courtyards and patios mingling with interior spaces. The ranch house proved a comfortable, spacious family house and "one that also offered a life style." Jocelyn Gibbs wrote about May's influences in an article entitled The California Hacienda: "He spent his childhood summers at his aunt’s Las Flores ranch in North San Diego. This experience instilled in him a vision of the ideal California house: a sprawling structure, low to the ground and open to the landscape. The Estudillo House was another model for May. His ancestor, Jose Maria Estudillo, had built the historic adobe in San Diego in 1827. May’s familiarity with the vernacular buildings of California’s settlement period was exceptional, it was also personal. '“To me, when we lived on the ranch, with cross-ventilation and rooms spread out and around courtyards, basic old California plans, it seemed to be a much better way to build and live.”' "May’s very first houses, built in San Diego with financial help from his future father-in-law and real estate developer Roy C. Lichty, caught the public’s imagination. They sold quickly and no wonder. May evoked a romantic California past by creating two basic styles. He built “haciendas” with wood and rough plaster—to resemble adobe— and clay tile roofs. A canny salesman, May often held openings for his houses at night so that garden lighting enhanced the romantic, rusticated surfaces and mix of Spanish, Mexican and California Mission décor." Ranch house architecture on a smaller scale, rather than large haciendas or ranchos, became popular and in the 1940s, the Ranch was one of the small house types financed by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) after WWII, with the increased need to produce housing for veterans and their families with limited budgets. The Ranch house is noted for its wide and low form, and “rambling” floor plan and simple detailing. Exterior materials varied and were often influenced by the geographic area and included stone, brick and stucco or wood siding. Low- pitched hip roofs are most common and feature roof overhangs with exposed rafters. Roofing materials were commonly asphalt shingles. Ranch homes feature a wide variety of window types: linear window; awning, hopper, casement, and double hung windows. The large picture window became a notable feature on ranch style homes. Ranch style homes typically provide a recessed or protected front entry in the way of a covered porch. The subject resource, while built in the Ranch house style with its adobe brick exterior, hipped roof, and large picture window, is missing some of its notable elements, as it is neither wide nor “rambling”. The house at 2668 Ocean Street is built in the shape of a square or small rectangle, rather than a long and horizontal façade. Ranch style homes typically feature attached garages or carports, as well as sizeable outdoor space with large lawns and expansive views. The original detached garage was built behind the dwelling and has now been converted. The addition which connects the original house and the garage conversion, along with the enclosure of the back patio, and the removal of the brick chimney has adversely affected the original appearance and integrity of the structure. Collectively, the lack of character- defining Ranch, coupled with changes to the building, has resulted in a property that is not architecturally significant.

It is south of the Buena Vista Lagoon, west of Carlsbad Boulevard in proximity to the Army Navy Academy and faces the Pacific Ocean. No known significant event occurred on the property, before or after the resource was constructed. No historical evidence was found which would suggest that the 2668 Ocean Street residence was ever associated with any persons or events significant in local, state, or national history. None of the persons identified with the property performed any activities, achievements or contributions which were demonstrably important within the City, state, or nation. The subject residence is a Mid Century Ranch single-family but lacks certain elements and additions are not in keeping with the original. The dwelling is not considered a representative example of that architectural style and is not considered a valuable example of the use of indigenous materials or craftsmanship. The architect and builder are unknown. It is unlikely that any further information of importance would be revealed with additional study. No historical evidence was identified which would support any contention that the 2668 Ocean Street residence exemplifies or reflects a special or unique aspect of Carlsbad’s general historical development; nor does it exemplify or reflect a unique aspect of the City's history.
