Mike Carey January 26,2016 Historic Resource Evaluation: 4791 Augustine St.,Pleasanton,CA Page 9 Historic Integrity The building has undergone substantial additions and alterations impacting its historic integrity. An evaluation of the seven aspects of integrity appears below: • Location. The residence remains in its original location on the site and has integrity of location. • Setting. The residence is in its original setting among residences on the western edge of downtown Pleasanton. New construction in the vicinity, including the City of Pleasanton's administrative buildings, have altered the property's original setting somewhat. But, the building retains integrity of setting. • Design. The building has lost nearly all integrity of original design as a Vernacular Queen Ann- style residence due to the front porch addition, rear addition and right side addition. The residence no longer retains integrity of design. • Materials. The residence retains minimal integrity of materials because of the poorly constructed additions to its primary elevations. • Workmanship. The building retains minimal integrity of workmanship, given the alterations made to the Vernacular residence that have obscured the original design. • Feeling. The building retains minimal integrity of feeling as a Vernacular residence because of the building modifications. • Association. The building retains minimal integrity of association as a Vernacular residence because of the building modifications. Conclusion In conclusion, the property at 4791 Augustine Street is not eligible for individual listing on the National Register of Historic Places or California Register of Historical Resources because it does not have any associations with significant events or significant persons. The substantial alterations to the residence have removed considerable historic integrity from the residence making the property ineligible for inclusion on either the National or California registers as a distinctive example of a type, method or period of construction. Please contact me if you have any questions about this evaluation. Sincerely, Seth A. Bergstein, Principal cc: City of Pleasanton Planning Department
