On November 12, 2015, applicant/owner Seung Lee submitted an application for Historic
Landmark designation, HL15-09, for property located at 511 Estill Street in the College
Heights Addition of the City of Grapevine. The area surrounding the home encompasses
some of the most concentrated and intact collections of late nineteenth and early twentieth
century houses in the city of Grapevine. The surrounding contributing sites with structures
HL15-09.4 I .
erected between ca. 1889 and ca. 1950, represent the efforts of many of Grapevine's
leading merchants and professionals, as well as farmers and wage earners during the
period of significance. This area provides some of the city's best examples of buildings
associated with people and events that made significant contributions to the history of
Grapevine.
This house was built in 1959 as rental property by Claude Chambers. The Chambers
owned and built a number of small homes in this historic Township as rental properties to
serve the population increase to Grapevine following World War II. The 700 square foot
house is built in the minimal traditional style. The house is a basic rectangle with a shed -
roofed attached on the west elevation and enclosed on its west and rear (north) elevations.
The side -gabled roof has a slight eave overhang. The entrance is located off -center toward
the left (west) half of the house. The interior of the house contains a family room with
cased opening to the large eat -in kitchen. There are two bedrooms and one bath.
PRESENT ZONING AND USE:
The property is currently zoned "R-7.5" Single Family Residential and is currently used as a
residential structure.
HISTORY OF TRACT AND SURROUNDING AREA:
The subject property and the surrounding properties to the north, south, east, and west

Preface
The College Heights Addition was platted by D. E. Austin in 1907 out of 33.88 acres of the Esther
Moore Survey. In 1922, John B. Wood, B. B. Wall and John Estill sold Lots 3-6 of Block 100 of the
College Heights Addition as well as several other parcels in that addition to C. J. Wall. In May 1923,
Mr. Wall, along with his wife, Beulah, sold Lots 3-6 of block 100 to J. C. Chambers. Chambers also
acquired Lots 7-8 of that same block. Tarrant County tax records indicate that a house constructed c.
1908 was located on Lot 8 and that Lots 5-7 remained vacant for a number of years.
According to his obituary published in the Dallas Morning News on May 31, 1951, Chambers came to
Grapevine around 1926 but the deed records suggest that he may have been in Grapevine as early
as 1923. He was 74 years old at the time of his death and had a career as a teacher and
superintendent at Red Oak and Crum. He retired before World War II but returned to teaching during
the war and then retired when the war ended.
Chambers and his wife had one son, C. L. Chambers, who lived in Irving, Texas at the time of J. C.'s
death. C. L. (Claude Lanier) and his wife, Vera Fay Satterfield Chambers, acquired Lots 3-8 in Block
100 of the College Heights Addition following his father's death. C. L. and Vera Fay both grew up in
Grapevine and were married in 1931. In March 1957 they took out a Deed of Trust in the amount of
$5300. It is possible that the Chambers used this money to construct the house that is presently on
Lot 4. The records of the Tarrant Appraisal District give the date of construction of 511 Estill as 1959
which would correspond to this timeframe. The Deed of Trust states that Lots 3-8 of Block 100 did not
form a part of C. L. and Vera Fay's homestead which suggests that they built the house for rental
income.
Claude Lanier Chambers attended what is now the University of Texas at Arlington and was engaged
in banking before World War II. Following service in the war, he and Vera Fay moved to Irving where
he worked in the oil industry. In 1960, he formed his own real estate firm, the C. L. Chambers Real
Estate Company. The Chambers moved back to Grapevine in 1977. He retired in 1988 and died in
January 1990 at the age of 79. Vera Fay had attended Trinity University and taught for a year at
Pleasant Run School. She then became a buyer and merchandiser for Sanger Brothers beginning in
1928, then with A. Harris, and finally Sanger -Harris stores, retiring in 1979. She died in April 2005 at
the age of 97.
Following C. L.'s death, Vera Fay sold the house to David Winters. In 1940, Grapevine had a
population of 1,043 and between 1950 and 1960, the population increased from 1,824 to 2,821, a total
of 170 percent in twenty years. In 1956, the Dallas Morning News published an article titled
"Grapevine Has Huge Potential." The article stated that the city's strategic location midway between
Fort Worth and Dallas and adjacent to developing industrial districts made it an ideal location for both
residents and new businesses. The events described in the article likely encouraged the Chambers to
construct a home for income purposes.
The house is representative of post -World War II housing constructed in Grapevine that was built to
serve two purposes. The construction of the house not only provided additional housing in
Grapevine's core during a period of rapid development but also provided additional income for the
home's builder. At the time of the home's construction, the Chambers were living in nearby Irving,
Texas.
511 Estill Street
The Claude and Fay Chambers constructed this house in 1959 in the College Heights Addition to
serve as rental income property. It is one of the smaller homes in the historic Township. It contains
approximately 700 square feet. The house is a basic rectangle with a shed -roofed attached on the
west elevation and enclosed on its west and rear (north) elevations.
The side -gabled roof has a slight eave overhang. The entrance is located off -center toward the left
(west) half of the house. From the southwest corner of the house to a few feet east of the entrance,
the roof has a slight overhang. The house has one over one windows with wood trim and wood siding.
The house faces south. An asphalt driveway extends from the street to the carport. A low curb
separates the front yard from the street.
The interior of the house contains a family room with cased opening to the large eat -in Kitchen. There
is an interconnecting hallway that links the family room with the two bedrooms, each with closet. One
bathroom serves the house. There is a small porch and storage closet off the rear of the carport and
back door of house.
RM
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.
�3m �t
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 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 fagade 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.
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 modern synthetic materials often involves the removal of original
decorative elements such as cornice, corner 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 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
district'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.
VAILlh7�TT�?
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.
TiTI M"
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 existing 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 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 exists, elements typical of the architectural style may be used.
Historic photographs can provide information on the original elements of the building.
