and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Grapevine, Texas at a public hearing called by the City Council did consider the following factors in making a determination as to whether this requested historic landmark subdistrict designation should be granted or denied; safety of the motoring public and the pedestrians using the facilities in the area immediately surrounding the site; safety from fire hazards and measures for fire control; protection of adjacent property from flood or water damages, noise producing elements, and glare of the vehicular and stationary lights and effect of such lights on established character of the neighborhood;

and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Grapevine, Texas has determined that there is a necessity and need for this historic landmark subdistrict designation and has also found and determined that there has been a change in the conditions of the property surrounding and in close proximity to the property requested for a change since this property was originally classified and, therefore, feels that the historic landmark subdistrict designation for the particular piece of property is needed, is called for, and is in the best interest of the public at large, the citizens of the City of Grapevine, Texas, and helps promote the general health, safety and welfare of this community.

The original house, circa 1885 was a typical L-plan wood frame house containing elements of a common Texas Folk Victorian vernacular. It has intersecting gable roofs, narrow clapboard siding and a shed roofed porch probably with boxed or spindled posts. The foundation is a brick pier foundation supporting wood beams and floor joists. Each of the wings of the ells contains two rooms separated by a wall and doorway. The existing, original windows are two over two, double hung wood windows. Of particular note is that the windows are of a mortised and tenoned construction and pegged through the tenons with hand hewn oak pegs. An addition was constructed, circa 1920s by the second owner, to house the kitchen, bath, intermediate room and back porch. It is also on a pier and beam foundation, however with eight foot walls and a gabled roof intersecting the rear of the central gable. The current site setting of the house is a 1.622 acre farmstead (reduced from its original size), where the front of the house faces N. Main Street. An existing garage is believed to have been added to property (circa 1920s) to house the family's Model T Ford. The original barn was razed, circa 1975. t? t1lIiI1 —k . 1U t=iu ,�tc'b - ,`� Page 9 of /9 I16. Historical Significance Statement of historical and adt:mal signrfrcore Include- culaa-al influences,special eterts and Dnlvrtmu personages,influences on neigh or on the city,etc. The house is significant because it is believed to have been the first home of Dr. Thomas Benton Dorris,a successful family doctor to the City of Grapevine. The house merits designation because it retains character and value as a part of the cultural development of the City of Grapevine, it identifies with a person who significantly contributed to the development of the city and embodies distinguishing characteristics of an architectural type. It is listed as a high priority property on the Historic and Architectural Resources Survey of the City of Grapevine. Thomas Benton Dorris, son of Grapevine pioneer Dr. W.E. Donis, was born December 22, 1859, in Starkville, Mississippi. In October of 1870, then 11 years old,Thomas Benton Dorris moved with his father and three siblings west from Starkville to Grapevine. He graduated in medicine from the University of Missouri and began what proved to be a successful medical practice in Grapevine in 1885. It is believed he constructed the house the same year of beginning his practice. Later, he constructed the another house, a Queen Anne Victorian in 1896 which is located at 224 E. College Street. According to local history, John Word Brock(1875-1947), a local businessman (grist mill operator), moved into the house in 1908 with his new bride, Bessie Bushong Brock. About 1917 they back to the home where Bessie grew up on Bushong Farm. After World War I, the couple moved back into the home where they spent the remainder of their life. Lewis Clinton Brock, son of John and Bessie, inherited the property soon after and has since sold and conveyed it to Patti T. Weatherman who recently passed away. The property is currently in the Patti T. Weatherman Estate, Cathy Dozier, Trustee. I 17. Bibliography '(DUNG, CHAP-1-ES, ED • eMPevINE ,\REA til Tor' . l 919 TVfLo . PLtBLIS+WV6 Co.

Main Street Grapevine, Texas Grapevine Historic Preservation Commission City of Grapevine One Liberty Park Plaza Grapevine, Texas April 27, 1998 Page 1 EXHIBIT TO Page M of Preface The Dorris/Brock House is significant to the contribution of the culture and heritage of the City of Grapevine because it is believed to have been the first home of Dr. W.E. Dorris, a doctor from Starkville, Mississippi. The original house, circa 1870s is a typical L-plan wood frame house containing elements common of the Texas Folk Victorian vernacular. It has intersecting gable roofs, narrow clapboard siding and a shed roofed porch probably originally with boxed or spindled posts. The foundation is a brick pier foundation supporting wood beams and floor joists. Each of the wings of the ells contains two rooms separated by a wall and doorway. The existing, original windows are two over two, double hung wood windows. Of particular note is that the windows are of a mortise and tenon construction and pegged through the tenons with hand cut oak pegs. Also historic to the property is the ca. 1920s garage, originally believed to have been ' constructed to house the Brock family Model T Ford. The garage is sited due North of the house and is a typical North Texas barn form consisting of a single gable barn with an additional room (extended shed) added to each side. Allowing this property to authentically tell its own story of its period and time,while reinforcing the historical period of significance (1870s-1910)with necessary preservation, rehabilitation and restoration, is the goal of the historic landmark designation. The preservation of original architectural features, especially the windows, is preferred, rather than'modernization" or"updating"of older features, or imposing a false 'historical look'on newer features. The historic character of the Dorris/Brock house can best be preserved by the repair of original materials, rather than their replacement. Repair and restoration is often more cost effective than replacement, conserves energy and reduces the amount of trash added to landfills. New construction (additions) to the home should reflect the character of the home during its period of significance (c. 1870-1910). Constructed for residential use, it's massing, roof shapes, porch configurations and materials that reflect the architectural character of the home during its historic period shall be preserved. The design of any new architectural features shall have key elements of a primary historic style already existing in the home and shall be clearly compatible with and complimentary to its adjacent features, but may not be a reproduction. Only when a previously demolished architectural feature can be accurately replicated may a reproduction be considered. Infill construction, should the property be re-subdivided, shall be similar in front and side yard setback to the historic home, in order to retain and reinforce the consistent setbacks that characterize the historic home. SITE Retain the historic relationships between buildings, landscaping features and open space. Avoid rearranging the site by moving or removing buildings and site features, such as walks, drives and fences,that help define the property's historic value. Page 2 EXHIBIT To 4d L'' -` Page 1 of . I9 SETBACKS Maintain building orientation pattern,with the front facade facing the street. Maintain spacing patterns between buildings. DRIVEWAYS, PARKING LOTS AND VACANT SITES Driveways shall be located perpendicular to the street; no circular drives shall be allowed (unless proven with historic documentation) in front or corner side yard, so that the character of the landscaped yard can be reinforced. Off-street parking shall not be allowed to interrupt the continuity of landscaped front or corner side yards. This is important to both the preservation of historic character, and to the strengthening of the residence. SERVICE AND MECHANICAL AREAS Service and mechanical areas shall be screened from the street and other pedestrian areas. All garbage and equipment storage areas shall be screened from the street. Screen mechanical equipment from public view. Mechanical equipment, including satellite dishes,shall not be located in front or corner side yards or shall be set back from the edges of roofs, and screened so that they are not visible to pedestrians and do not detract from the historic character of buildings. Window air-conditioning units may not be permitted at locations visible from streets. Where replication of original elements is not possible, a new design consistent with the original style of the building may be used. BUILDING FABRIC PRESERVATION Preserve, stabilize, and restore original building form, ornament and materials. Any missing or severely deteriorated elements may be replaced with replicas of the original. Ensure that roof, window, cornice and parapet treatments are preserved, or when preservation is not possible duplicate the original building. Page 3 EXHIBIT A , TO OAdd L'D-/y Page of ./9 When rehabilitating, remove non-historic alterations. Often, "modern"renovations conceal the original facade details. If not, the original style may be recreated through the use of historic photographs. Reconstruction of building elements shall reflect the size,scale, material and level of detail of the original design. Preserve older renovations that have achieved historic significance. This is consistent with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation. EXTERIOR FINISHES: Original wood finishes shall be maintained and painted or, when necessary, replaced in kind. Modern synthetic siding materials such as vinyl, metal or asbestos tile bear little resemblance to historic siding materials. The application of such materials often involves the removal of original decorative elements such as cornice, corner boards, brackets,window and door trim, etc. Synthetic siding shall not be installed; removal of existing such materials is strongly encouraged, to restore historic patina, finish and appearance. Original masonry surfaces shall be maintained and not be painted, unless severe deterioration of the brick or stone can be shown to require painting. If color or texture of replacement brick or stone cannot be matched with existing, painting may be an appropriate treatment. Paint colors shall be complimentary to each other and the overall character of the house. When possible, research the original paint color and finishes of the building's historic period; the right colors respect the historic building. The Historic Preservation Commission shall adopt, as necessary, a paint palette(s) appropriate to the house's character,which may be proposed and approved through the Minor Exterior Alteration application process. Any colors proposed outside the adopted palette may be reviewed by the Commission in the regular Certificate of Appropriateness process. WINDOWS Original window framing and light (panes of glass) configurations shall be preserved and maintained or replaced in kind. When replacement is necessary,do so within existing historic opening. Use same sash size to avoid filling in or enlarging the original opening. If drop ceiling is installed in the interior, be sure that it is slanted up at the window so that it will not cut into the window opening. Page 4 EXHIBIT_ # TO I d070- Z _i'- Pago !W of . /9 If metal storm windows are installed, paint to blend with surrounding elements. Clear or very slightly tinted window glass may be used. No reflective or heavily tinted glass shall be used. Should the owner wish to install security bars,they shall be installed on the interior of windows and doors. EMBELLISHMENTS AWNINGS-CANOPIES • Awnings may be a "drop-front"style. The modern bubble design, often used on commercial buildings, detracts from historic architectural styles. All awnings or canopies shall provide at least 8 feet of clearance above grade. Awnings shall be made of canvas or other fabric material. Canvas awnings are typical of historic buildings. Plastic or metal awnings, or the backlighting of awnings shall not be used. Awnings shall not be continuous across a facade, but rather relate to each window or bay. This rhythm of awnings is typical of historic residential and commercial styles. EXTERIOR LIGHTING Lighting is an important element in residential areas. Fixtures shall be consistent with the historic character of the house. Avoid exposed lighting of any kind unless part of a historic fixture. NEW BUILDING CONSTRUCTION INFILL New construction proposals and the rehabilitation of non-historic buildings will be reviewed based Page 5 EXHIBIT TO /),i i$ Page 11 of I' on these Criteria. Judgement will be based on the compatibility of the design within the context of the property's adjacent and nearby historic buildings. The design of new buildings may have key elements of an existing or previous building of the historic period (c.1870-1930), including massing,scale, fenestration, materials. Infill buildings may not be absolute reproductions, and shall appear as clearly contemporary. Only when a previously demolished historic Grapevine building can be accurately replicated may a reproduction be considered. The Federal Secretary of the Interior's guidelines for new buildings in historic districts encourage similarity of form and materials, but not actual replication. Infill buildings between contributing buildings shall be similar in setback, roof form, cornice line and materials,to one of the adjacent buildings. Relate height of new building to the heights of adjacent structures. Avoid new buildings that tower over existing ones. Horizontal wood siding (either novelty,tongue and groove, shiplap or equivalent); brick, stone or stucco are appropriate exterior building finishes for the historic house. Fake brick or stone or gravel aggregate materials shall never be used. ADDITIONS TO CONTRIBUTING BUILDINGS Additions to historic buildings shall replicate the style of the main building if possible; otherwise they shall adhere to the general style with simplified details. As a minimum, new additions shall reflect the massing, roof shape, bay spacing, cornice lines and building materials of the primary structure. All new wood or metal materials shall have a painted finish. New vertical additions may be set back from primary facades so as not to be readily apparent from the facing street. When replacing elements that were originally part of a historic building they shall be replicated when evidence of the actual detail has been documented by photographs,drawings, or remaining physical evidence. If no evidence exists, elements typical of the architectural style may be used. Historic photographs can provide information on the original elements of the building. A new addition should, if at all possible, be located at the rear of the historic building. If this is not possible,the addition may be added to the side if it is recessed at least 18 inches from the historic building facade or a connection is used to separate old from new. Page 6 EXHIBIT, 11 TO Page N of f 9 MAINTENANCE REPAIRING HISTORIC MATERIALS The use of inappropriate treatments in repair and renovation can seriously damage historic structures. These guidelines present general directions for action. However,individuals using this document may consult technical resources and references available through the Grapevine Historic Preservation Commission for detailed information on renovation methods and materials. Use approved technical procedures for cleaning, refinishing and repairing. The Secretary of the Interior sets out guidelines for repair of historic buildings. Clean historic brick walls carefully. Do not use abrasive cleaning methods such as sand blasting and high pressure water,as they can remove the hard protective surface of old soft brick,shorten the life expectancy of wood, and cause accelerated erosion. Some chemical cleaners which are designed to remove paint from masonry surfaces may be used if caution Is exercised. Acidic cleaners, even in diluted form, shall not be used on marble, limestone, glazed brick, terra cotta, or glass as they will cause these materials to dissolve. Alkaline paint removers, (ammonia plus potassium hydroxide or trisodium phosphate) are usually safe for acid-sensitive masonry. Organic solvent paint removers (methylene chloride, methanol, acetone,xylene and toluene) may be safe for unglazed brick and terra cotta and harder stones—sandstones, granite, and slate. No paint removal system is entirely safe for historic masonry. All chemicals shall be tested before applying to the entire surface. Manufacturer's directions shall be followed carefully. Avoid painting brick or stone when not a historic treatment. Painting historic masonry walls has the effect of destroying them for later refurbishing to their original condition because they frequently cannot withstand stripping treatments. If sealing them is the issue,then clear sealers may provide a better alternative, but only on materials that have been damaged by sandblasting. Repoint masonry where mortar has eroded. A well maintained masonry wall is important to preventing air and moisture intrusion. Old mortar shall be removed to a depth of approximately one inch (or sound mortar)to ensure an adequate bond between old and new mortar. Great care shall be taken not to damage edges of brick during mortar removal. Page 7 EXHIBIT- i" TO / - ' ' __1 Page of 19 New Mortar shall match the historic mortar in strength, color,joint width, and tooling. A mortar mix that is too high in Portland cement can cause extreme damage to historic/soft brick or stone;the mortar should contain no more than 20 percent of white Portland cement per the total dry volume. Mortar color may be matched to a non-weathered sample of historic mortar raked from mortar joints; small amounts shall be mixed and allowed to dry on a board before comparison with historic samples. Joints shall not be overfilled;joint width shall not be increased during repainting. They shall be tooled to match the historic joints in profile;joints shall nearly always be recessed;mortar shall never be"feathered" out over the brick face. ELEMENTS NEEDING REGULAR MAINTENANCE Roofs—Repair leaks in roofs to prevent wall and interior damage. Maintaining a good,sealed, roof is the most important measure for minimizing weather damage to buildings,which can be very expensive to repair. Roofs—Clean and repair downspouts. Poorly maintained downspouts can cause water to damage fascia and walls. Windows and Doors—Keep windows and doors clean. Clean windows and doors have a tremendous positive impact on building appearance. Dirty windows and doors detract from the attractiveness of a district. Windows and Doors—Keep window and door trim scraped, caulked and painted to avoid rot Moisture quickly deteriorates wood which is not protected by paint. ENERGY CONSERVATION/WINDOWS Ensure windows and doors are well caulked and weather sealed to avoid water and air infiltration. Use interior storm windows. Storm windows are available which can be installed on the interior of windows. This helps to preserve the exterior historic character of the building. Page 8
