Ferndale Sewer Project, Susie Van Kirk

Susie Van Kirk Papers

With its exceptional array of Victorian and turn-of-the- century commercial and residential structures, Ferndale is recognized statewide as a place of historic significance. Individual structures are notable examples of late 19th and early 20th century styles, many displaying the opulent applied ornamentation of the period. But the significance of this collection is not simply that of individual structures; rather, it is the architectural and historic integrity of the town as a whole that preserves a Victorian character rarely found in late 20th century America. These notable examples are supported by a sprinkling of settlement-period house types and good representatives of …

Raab House, Susie Van Kirk

Susie Van Kirk Papers

The architectural integrity of the house continues to be impaired by past and on-going alterations. Window and door changes along with major interior reconstruction have altered the house considerably from its original appearance. It is the addition on the southwest corner, however, that is so intrusive as to permanently compromise the house's historic architecture. For this reason, I am recommending denial of the application for historic designation.

The Baiocchi House, Susie Van Kirk

Susie Van Kirk Papers

The house at 895 7th Street is a two-story, hipped-roof box with 1/1 windows and a central entrance. This house type was built locally in the first decade of the 20th century and is notable for its exterior simplicity and lack of decoration. Removal of the one-story porch across the front, replacement of the original front door, and enclosure of the rear porch are major alterations.

Arcata has several examples of this house type, but only this one and the house at the northwest corner of 15th and I Streets have retained their original character. The house directly across 7th …

The Hunt Dental Building, Susie Van Kirk

Susie Van Kirk Papers

The Hunt Dental Building at 839 Ninth Street in Arcata is a one-story stucco structure with a quasi pavilion in the center of the front facade. A recessed entry contains a glass-paned door with sidelights and a transom light overhead. Front windows on either side of the entry consist of a narrow window with a small upper-division and a larger window which repeats the divisions. Small windows are found in the west and south walls, but the east wall is without openings and is now covered with a vertical-board siding, added after the 1979 fire which destroyed the three-store building …

The College Motor Inn, Susie Van Kirk

Susie Van Kirk Papers

The College Motor Inn property at 1645 G Street (AP#20-092-10) is recommended for the City's Landmark and Historic Preservation Overlay Zone. The buildings represent, both in their bungalow architecture and their original use, a significant period in Arcata's history when the Redwood Highway opened the northcoast to the rest of California. Built to serve those first auto tourists who came to enjoy the area's splendid natural beauty, the Barter Bungalow Court opened in August 1929 with eight units and was expanded the following year with the addition of another four units. Over the years, the old tourist camp has seen …
