Building Description and NRHP/CRHR Evaluation In order for a resource to be eligible for the CRHR, it must meet three criteria: 1. Be eligible under one of the four criteria of significance; 2. Retain historic integrity; and 3. Be 50 years old or older (except in rare cases where the resource meets a higher level or “exceptional” level of significance). The two houses on the project site, located at 11021 and 11033 Dublin Canyon Road, are over 50 years old, and meet the age criterion. As such, a Historic Architecture Evaluation Report (Appendix D) was prepared by Ward Hill, Architectural Historian, in April 2018, in order to evaluate two houses and associated structures and landscape features. The following is a summary of the Report findings. 11021 Dublin Canyon Road The house at 11021 Dublin Canyon Road is a single-family, single-story house. According to County Assessor records, the house at 11021 Dublin Canyon Road was constructed in 1918. This house was likely built by Joseph Fernandes who had owned the property from at least 1910. Manuel Terra, Sr. bought the property by the 1930s. The house has a moderately pitched cross gable roof covered with asphalt shingles and patched with roofing paper. The house has exterior stucco walls. The roof has wide eaves and exposed raptors. The front and side gables also have prominent eave brackets. The prominent wide porch wraps around from the front (north) façade around to the west façade. The windows in the house are primarily wood-sash double-hung or casement. Inside the small house has six rooms. The compact square plan with 904 square feet (about 30 by 30 feet) has no interior hallways. The rooms open directly one to another. The front door opens directly into the living room on the west side of the north façade. The living room has a coffered ceiling, wood wainscoting, a built-in break front with leaded glass doors and a fireplace faced with clinker brick (now painted). The doors and windows are framed with plain boards. Kitchen is south of and adjacent to the living room. The eastern half of the interior includes two small bedrooms (with bathroom in between) and a utility room. A kitchen door on the west leads to the side porch. A rear door from the utility room leads to the back yard. The condition of the house appears to be poor and deteriorated. The porch is tilting to the west away from house. The ends of the roof rafters are rotted. The roof has been patched in several
