Pala Ran As ociate Planner CAS:PR:465W3.COA =YY ®ANSSTHN IH aSSq'ORMAL SSU R A ADDRESS: 465 3RD ST (W.) DATE: 1930 STYLE: SPANISH COLONIAL REVIVAL SOURCE: RATING: T B ALTERATIONS: F HISTORICAL DISTRICT: i YES COMMENT: IAJJA'14 - 11h UZI t tI-IA.A1/'. G This unusual single -storied Spanish Colonial Revival house is topped with a dramatic stepped parapet, edged in red clay tiles. The exterior is clad in stucco. A prominent rectangular covered entry, accented with a southwest emblem in the center, forms the centerpiece for the symmetrical front facade. A wide arched opening, flanked by narrow arched openings, accent the front of the entry. Slanted wingwalls add further to the.southwest feeling. The same style arch opens to the east side, where there is a 1 courtyard bordered by a low stucco -clad wall, and to the west side, where access to the entry is located. Trios of french doors flank the entry porch, and narrow horizontal vents are located above each set. The front door and sidelights, bordered in narrow panes of glass and square mullions at the corners, match the french doors. This house, with its southwest feeling, prominent entry, delicate parapet, and use of arches, is an unusual example of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture. I SIGNIFICANCE: Built by Lon Silver in 1930, this unusual Spanish Colonial Revival house has some interesting architectural features (noted above) and is significant for its associations with the Silvers and Vincent Humeston. Mr. Humeston, who purchased the home in 1937, served as a City Councilman and as Mayor of Tustin during the late 1940's. He taught government and history at Tustin High School for many years during the 1930's, 40's, and 50's. Ile was especially interested in local government and felt strongly that Tustin should expand its boundaries as Anaheim and Santa Ana were doing in the 1940's and 50's. He lived in this house into the 1960's.
