Gallagher House c. 1940 235 S. Dooley Street The Gallagher House at 235 S. Dooley Street is a World War II-era Bungalow/Craftsman style house in Grapevine, Texas. It is a one-story, rectangular shaped house with a prominent front gable with a lower projecting front gabled porch. Unlike houses of this style from earlier decades, it lacks the wide overhanging eaves and therefore has no eave brackets. It does have exposed rafter tails on the sides of the house. Multiple-light wood windows illuminate the interior. - Early alterations to the house included the application of a fibrous, ribbed shingle siding to the exterior and the replacement of the original columns with decorative metal supports. In 2005, the house underwent additional alterations. The attic vent in the front gable was replaced with a smaii multiple-light window. One window on the south side of the house was removed and other windows were replaced with multiple-light metal units. The decorative metal columns were replaced with simple wood posts with gingerbread-type brackets at the top. A simple wood balustrade was added between the posts. The original Craftsman-style door was replaced and the exterior painted gray. Southeast of the house is a two-car garage that also has a front gable and exposed rafter tails. During the recent rehabilitation, it received a new garage door. A driveway runs along the south side of the house. It was a wide concrete apron with a gravel drive to the garage. 96.Historical Significance Statement of historica!and cultural significance. Include: cultural influences, special events and important personages, influences on neighborhood, on the city, etc. The Gallagher House is located at 235 S. Dooley Street on block 104 of the College Heights Addition to the Town of Grapevine. This addition is located on the east side of Grapevine in the Esther Moore Survey and is basically bounded by Dooley Street on the west, Coppell Road (now Northwest Highway) on.the north, Ruth Street on the east and Giddens Alley on the south. Texas.Street was originally known as Washam Street. The name College Heights originated from the fact that the addition encompassed the campus of Grapevine College, now the location of a public school. The plat was approved by Town of Grapevine in 1913 but not filed with the Tarrant County Clerk's office until 1921. The 1935 Sanborn Map for Grapevine indicates that the College Heights Addition was sparsely developed as of that date. Some blocks, including Block 104, the location of the subject property, had no improvements upon them at that time. On June 9, 1945, Hugh and Mary Simmons and Jospehine Wright (Mary's sister) sold two tracts of land, Lots 3-9, block 102 and Lots 1-6 of block 104 to Mrs. Mann Trice, a widow, and W. C. Lucas for the sum of one dollar. Hugh and Mary Simmons were Grapevine residents who lived nearby at 311 Smith. Trice and Lucas sold the south half of Lots 1-4 of block 104 to R. L. Gallagher for the sum of $500 on September 15, 1945. That price would suggest that there were no improvements on the property at that time. It is assumed that R. L. Gallagher and his wife, Sarah Ila, built two houses on the property shortly after purchase. A revised Sanborn Map of Grapevine (1948-1956) shows a one-story wood-framed house and garage at the northeast corner of South Dooley Street and Washam Avenue (Texas) on Lots 1-3, now 235 S. Dooley Street, and a house on Lots 4-5, now 513 E. Texas. The numbering of these lots is likely an error as the property for 513 E. Texas did not contain Lot 5. The inclusion of Lot 3 with the house at 235 S. Dooley Street is likely an error as well. The fact that the Gallaghers built two houses on adjacent lots suggests that they used at least one of them as rental property. In 1967, R. L. and Sarah Gallagher had the south 70 feet (south half)of block 104, Lots 1-4 replatted. What was originally the south half of Lots 1-2 became Lot A and the south half of Lots 3-4 became Lot B. Lot A is the property associated with 235 S. Dooley, which is now known as Lot 2A. On October 11, 1983, Sarah Gallagher sold Lots A and B to Peggie Sampson. Vinson Integrated Properties, bought 235 S. Dooley in early 2005. The current owners purchased it later that year. The Gatlagher House is a late example of the Bungalow/Craftsman style and represents the simple, World War II-era houses constructed in Grapevine, Texas. The Bungalow/Craftsman style house was the most popular house style in the country during the first quarter of the 20th century. But the style persisted into the 1930s and 1940s. Simplified examples such as 235 S. Dooley Street were constructed during this period. The house also illustrates Grapevine's growth patterns. In the early post-war era, residents were still able to find available parcels of land within the town proper on which to build residences. As the population continued to grow, the demand for property would expand beyond the Original Town and College Heights Addition. 17. Bib�io ra h Historic Landmark Designation Form for 513 E.

Page 4 SITE Retain the historic relationships between buiidings, 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 fa�ade 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 faCade of a property. Utilitarian/privacy fences should not be installed in front of a historic building or beyond the line of the front fa�ade 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 Page 5 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, inciuding satellite dishes,shali not be located in front or corner side yards or shouid 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 befnre 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. Page 6 Paint colors should be complimentary to each other and the overali character of the house. When possibie,research the originai paint color and finishes of the buiiding'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. 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 inetal 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. 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 �f°�� compatibility of the design within the context of the property's adjacent and nearby historic buildings. Page 7 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 ciearlycontemporary. Onlywhen 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 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 buifding.
