Elaborate on pertinent materials used and styles) of architectural detailing, embel- Ashments and site detaib: The current appearance of the home located at 422 South Dooley Street bears little resemblance to the 2752 square foot residence built by John Dougherty for D.E. and Ruth Box in 1920. The original cross -hipped roof (low to medium in pitch) has been replaced with a medium -pitched side -gable -type with wide eaves over the front facade. Square footage has been added to the second story over the former single -story porch. Storm windows and metal siding have been added to all facades. The original home was a two-story folk house with hints of craftsman detailing. The single -story front porch filled in the southeast corner of the L-shaped floor plan. Covered by a narrowly pitched hipped roof, the porch was supported by large square roof supports. y gabled eave announced the home's entryway. All exterior walls were covered in four -inch lapped wood siding. Rectangular windows (double -hung with diamond shaped upper panes over one full-size lower pane) grouped in threes, are placed on each upper story and the lower story front facade, as well as on the frontmost sides of the house. Identical windows, grouped in pairs were found placed on each of the upper story side facades. The roof had narrow eaves. One large chimney rose from the north side of the house. A smaller chimney rose from the southwest quadrangle. This massed -plan (more than one room deep), wood -framed, vernacular style was popular in the South (indeed, in many parts of the country) from the turn of the 20", century until the 1930s. This example was clearly owned by a family of means, as indicated by its size, quality of construction and fine landscaping. The bounds of the property were delineated by a three to four foot tall row of hedges. Various trees were planted through- out the yard. It is unknown what type of construction occurred in 1938. However, in 1960, then owner L.W. Parker Jr. made the bulk of the alterations we see today. Square footage was added to the upper story over the top of the front porch, creating a rectangular house, topped by a simple side -gabled composition roof with narrow over- hanging eaves. Ahuninum storm windows were placed over the original wood -framed windows. The porch is now defined by a pent roof. The large square roof supports remain. Windows added during this construction are horizontally narrow 2/2, and do not match those existing. Two in the front and one on the side, they are placed equidistantly across each facade. Exterior asbestos siding was added to cover the lapped siding. The yard appears to be somewhat smaller, making way for the paving of South Dooley. The perimeter hedges have been removed. Sidewalks have been added. It appears that few, if any, of the original trees remain, though others have since been planted. A large detached garage with hipped roof and asbestos siding is acces- sible from Franklin Street. 16. Historical Significance Statement of historical and cultural significance. Include: cultural influences, special events and important personages, influences on >zeighhorhood, on the city, etc. According to Tarrant County Deed Records, D.E. Box purchased from Zebulon and Florence Jenkins two lots on the corner of Franklin and Dooley soon after Thanksgiving 1919. Box's father-in-law, John J. Dougherty, began construction on the home early the following year. It was completed in 1921. John Dougherty was a highly skilled carpenter and contractor who built many fine churches, schools and homes in the North Texas area. after completing the Box residence, John built a home across the street for he and wife, Minerva. D.E. Box was the Cashier and Manager of the First National Bank of Grapevine (then the National Bank) from its inception — the same year Main Street was paved. The third bank in this small town of 600 residents, it is said to have begun humbly but grown steadily, sustaining the town's primarily agricultural economy even through the Great Depression. By February 1924, with the resignation of President T.B. White, Box became President, a position he held for exactly 33 years. He was succeeded as president by his son, Joseph Nelson "Joe." D.E. served for several more years as the bank's Chairman of the Board. He was succeeded in this role by his wife Ruth. In addition to his work in the bank, D.E. owned and operated Box Insurance Agency, as well as having farm and ranch holdings and operations. His partner in the livestock business from 1933-1942 was Drew Wall, who among other notable accomplishments was mayor of Grapevine in 1922. The Box family name is well known in Grapevine, particularly with regard to community and non-profit serv- ice. D.E. was president of the Northwest Highway Association, the primary organization that helped get Highway 114 routed through Grapevine. He served on the Grapevine City Council and local school board, and was a leader in the Masonic Lodge and Lions Club. He served the Texas Bankers Association as State Treasurer and was Chairman of District Seven. Grapevine's Citizen of the Year award is named in his honor. Ruth Box was active in the First Baptist Church where she served as Sunday School teacher for almost half a century. She was President of the Bay View Club, a charter member of the Grapevine Garden Club and past Worthy Matron of the Order of the Eastern Star. She was a graduate of North Texas State Teachers Normal and a Carrollton school teacher before marrying D.E. in 1914. Three of D.E. and Ruth Box's five children (D.E. Jr., Joseph Nelson, William Donald, MaryRuth and Evelyn Dougherty) were born in Grapevine. All spent their formative years here. D.E., Ruth and Joe Box were directly involved in the economic growth and prosperity of the city. Their fine examples of professionalism and civic responsibility had a direct impact on the quality of life of its residents. 17.

Box House c. 1922 The current appearance of the home located at 422 South Dooley Street bears little resemblance to the 2752 square foot residence built by John Dougherty for D.E. and Ruth Box in 1920. Following a fire on the second floor of the home in 1975, the original cross -hipped roof (low to medium in pitch) was replaced with a medium -pitched side -gable -type with wide eaves over the front facade. A deck was added to the second story over the former single -story porch. Storm windows and composite siding were added to all facades. The original home was a two-story folk house with hints of craftsman detailing. The single -story front porch filled in the southeast corner of the L-shaped floor pian. Covered by a narrowly pitched hipped roof, the porch was supported by large square roof supports. A gabled eave announced the home's entryway. All exterior walls were covered in four -inch lapped wood siding. Rectangular windows (double -hung with diamond shaped upper panes over one full-size lower pane) grouped in threes, are placed on each upper story and the lower story front fagade, as well as on the frontmost sides of the house. Identical windows, grouped in pairs were found placed on each of the upper story side facades. The roof had narrow eaves. One large chimney rose from the north side of the house. A smaller chimney rose from the southwest quadrangle. This massed -plan (more than one room deep), wood -framed, vernacular style was popular in the South (indeed, in many parts of the country) from the turn of the 20"' century until the 1930s.

Square footage was added to the upper story over the top of the front porch, creating a rectangular house, topped by a simple side -gabled composition roof with narrow overhanging eaves. Aluminum storm windows were placed over the original wood -framed windows. The porch is now defined by a pent roof. The large square roof supports remain.

A large detached garage with hipped roof and asbestos siding is accessible from Franklin Street. D. E. Box House c. 2005 Prentice D. Jeffcoat, Owner Page 5 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 residence's historic value. SETBACKS Building setbacks should be consistent with adjacent buildings or with the style of the building. Setbacks are an important ingredient in creating an attractive streetscape. Buildings should be set back to a line that is consistent with their neighbors and land use. For example, a residential setback should retain the setback of adjacent and nearby structures, with landscaping along the street right-of-way. Residential buildings with a commercial use in residential areas should be set back in a manner consistent with setbacks of neighboring or similar residential structures. Maintain building orientation pattern, with the front facade facing the street. Maintain spacing patterns between buildings. DRIVEWAYS, PARKING LOTS AND VACANT SITES Driveways should 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. New parking lots for commercial uses should not be located adjacent to sidewalks in the district. Off-street parking lots should 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 residential district. Screen existing parking lots from streets and pedestrian areas in the Historic District. Existing parking lots located adjacent to streets and sidewalks may be screened to the height of car hoods. This will provide a certain level of continuity of the building facade line; it will screen unsightly views; and it will provide a level of security by allowing views to and from the sidewalk. FENCES Historically, fences around historic houses defined yards and the boundary around property and gardens. Wood picket fences, wood rail fences and barbed wire or decorative wire fences were the common fence types in Grapevine. Traditionally, picket fences surrounded the front of the house while rail and wire fences surrounded the agricultural portions of the property. Maintain historic fences. New fences. Simple wood picket fences, wood and wire and wrought iron fences are appropriate. Avoid chain- link fences, privacy fences and concrete block fences for the street sides of property. Wood privacy fences may be allowed when installed in the rear yard and behind the front fagade of a property. Utilitarian/privacy fences should not be installed in front of a historic building or beyond the line of the front fagade of a historic building. Replacing fences. If replacement is required due to deterioration, remove only those portions of historic fences that are damaged beyond repair and replace in-kind, matching the original in material, design and placement. If replacement is necessary for non -historic fences, or new fences are proposed, locate and design the fence in such a way that will compliment the historic boundary of the property without concealing the historic character of the property. Page 6 SERVICE AND MECHANICAL AREAS Service and mechanical areas and equipment should be screened from the street and other pedestrian areas. All garbage and equipment storage areas should be screened from the street. Mechanical equipment, including satellite dishes, shall not be located in front or corner side yards or should 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. 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, porch and cornice treatments are preserved, or when preservation is not possible duplicate the original building element. 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. Where replication of original elements is not possible, a new design consistent with the original style of the building may be used. Reconstruction of building elements should reflect the size, scale, material and level of detail of the original design. Preserve older renovations that have achieved historic significance. Older structures or additions may have, at some time, been renovated with such care and skill that the renovation itself is worthy of preservation. Usually, such renovations may date from before 1940. EXTERIOR FINISHES Original wood finishes should be maintained and painted or, when necessary, replaced in kind. Modern synthetic siding materials such as vinyl or metal bear little resemblance to historic siding materials. The application of such modem synthetic materials often involves the removal of original decorative elements such as cornice, comer boards, brackets, window and door trim, etc. New synthetic siding shall not be installed; removal of existing such materials is not required, but strongly encouraged, to restore historic patina, finish and appearance. Original asbestos siding should be maintained and painted, or when necessary, replaced with synthetic siding to match the existing asbestos siding. The removal of asbestos siding over existing wood siding is not required, but strongly encouraged, to restore historic patina, finish and appearance. Original masonry surfaces should be maintained and not be painted, unless severe deterioration of the brick or stone can be shown to require painting. If the color or texture of replacement brick or stone cannot be Page 7 matched with existing, painting may be an appropriate treatment. Paint colors should 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 districts 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 lites (panes of glass) configurations should be preserved and maintained or replaced in kind. When replacement is necessary, do so within existing historic opening. Replacement of non -original windows should consider the use of historically appropriate wood windows. Use same sash size to avoid filling in or enlarging the original opening. 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 should be installed on the interior of windows and doors. Storm windows. The use of interior storm windows is encouraged. Storm windows are available which can be installed on the interior of windows. This helps to preserve the exterior historic character of the building. Should storm windows need to be installed on the exterior of the historic windows, storm windows constructed of wood and configured to match the historic sashes (i.e. one over one sashes) are recommended. If metal storm windows are installed, paint to blend with surrounding elements. EMBELLISHMENTS AWNINGS -CANOPIES New awnings and canopies should not be installed above windows or doors. EXTERIOR LIGHTING Lighting is an important element in residential areas. Fixtures should be consistent with the historic character of the house. Appropriate incandescent light fixtures to the style of the district should be used. Avoid exposed lighting of any kind unless part of a historic fixture. Page 8 NEW BUILDING CONSTRUCTION INFILL The Secretary of the Interior's guidelines for new buildings in historic districts encourage similarity of form and materials, but not actual replication. New construction proposals and the rehabilitation of non -historic buildings will be reviewed based 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 should have key elements of the building's historic period of significance including massing, scale, fenestration and materials. Infill buildings should not be absolute reproductions, and appear as clearly contemporary. Only when a previously demolished historic Grapevine building can be accurately replicated may a reproduction be considered. Infill buildings between historic buildings should 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 e)ashng ones. Horizontal wood siding (either novelty, tongue and groove, shiplap or equivalent) and brick are appropriate exterior building finishes for the historic house. Fake brick or stone or gravel aggregate materials shall never be used. ADDITIONS TO HISTORIC BUILDINGS Additions to historic buildings should replicate the style of the main building if possible; otherwise they should adhere to the general style with simplified details. As a minimum, new additions should reflect the massing, roof shape, bay spacing, cornice lines and building materials of the primary structure. All new wood or metal materials should have a painted finish except on some 20th century buildings where the use of unpainted aluminum or steel was part of the original design and should be maintained. 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. New vertical additions should be set back from primary facades so as not to be readily apparent from the facing street. When reproducing elements that were originally part of a historic building they should be replicated when evidence of the actual detail has been documented by photographs, drawings, or remaining physical evidence. If no evidence e)asts, elements typical of the architectural style may be used. Historic photographs can provide information on the original elements of the building.
