Preface
613 Ball Street
The Ed Davis House at 613 Ball Street is located on the east side of the street
just south of College. It was constructed c. 1940. It is located on a lot that is
approximately 75 feet wide by 208 feet deep. The house has a fairly deep
setback from the street and is approached by a wide driveway on the north side
of the house. Mature trees shade the house.
The form of the house is basically a massed plan with a moderately pitched, side
gable roof and a large projecting front gabled porch. The roof is sheathed with
asphalt shingles and has exposed rafter tails. The porch gable is located on the
north half of the fagade and is supported by three ornamental iron columns. The
body of the house is sheathed with asbestos shingles. Two paired windows to
the right of the front entrance have fixed panes. Near the south end of the
fagade are two double hung windows.
Projecting from the north elevation is a shed -roofed carport. It is support by two
simple square columns or posts.
Possible alterations include the replacement of original front columns, alteration
to windows just to the right of the front entrance and the addition of the carport
along the north elevation.
The Ed Davis House was constructed c. 1940 on land that was part of his
Page 3
parents', William Westbrook and Hattie Janella Davis', homestead. William
Westbrook Davis came to Grapevine in 1899. In 1901 he married Hattie Janella
Watson, the daughter of his step -mother, Margaret (Maggie) Fullerton Watson
Davis. The pair had six children, Lovey Addis, Enloe Watson, Lee Edward (Ed),
James Hudson (J.H.) 11, William Doris (Bill) and Margaret Inez. The elder Mr.
Davis was a farmer who owned and leased several farms in Tarrant County.
They later purchased property at what is now 721 West College. Mr. Davis died
in 1935. In the early part of World War II (c. 1940), their son, Ed, built a house
on a portion of the property that faced Ball Street. Following Mrs. Davis' death,
Ed Davis purchased the property on which his house sat from his siblings,
William D. Davis, Lovey Yates (and her husband Estill Yates) and Inez Jewett
(and her husband Harlan L. Jewett) in 1954. Inez and Harlan Jewett have lived
at 721 W. College since 1961.
The Ed Davis house was sold to Margaret Ann Sparks and others in 2001. It
was purchased by the current owner in 2007.
The house at 613 Ball Street has significance for its association with the mid
20th -century growth of Grapevine. It was not uncommon for families to sell off
parcels of larger property for the construction of more single family housing.
Often these houses were constructed by other family members.
Architecturally, the house represents the evolution of house design around the
beginning of World War 11. Previous to the war years, the Bungalow/Craftsman
style was the most popular style chosen for single family houses. But as the war
years approached, house design often became simpler. The Davis House has a
front -gabled porch similar to what was found on many bungalows but the
massed plan of the house demonstrates a National Folk influence and arguably
was a precursor to much of the housing constructed for returning veterans in the
early post-war years.

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 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.
Page 5
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
Page 6
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.
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.
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.
Page 7
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.
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. Judgment 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.
Page 8
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 201h
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.

SUBJECT: CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS #HL08-08
613 BALL STREET
GRAPEVINE, TX 76051
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Historic Preservation Commission approve the proposed Historic
Landmark Subdistrict overlay to the Grapevine Historic Preservation Ordinance 91-73
(Appendix G — Grapevine Code of Ordinances), as amended for following properties
addressed as:
613 Ball Street, legally described as A 518, Tr 10D01, City of Grapevine.
BACKGROUND:
This house was constructed in 1940 for Edward Davis as his family residence. The
modest house is built in the minimal traditional style on a pier and beam foundation with
wood frame, asbestos type siding, asphalt shingle roof with exposed rafter tails. Staff
review of the house indicates that the house itself is not of architectural significance. The
house has a failed foundation and is in poor condition and could be rehabilitated. A letter
was received from the applicant showing hardship to adapt the home for his family needs.
The applicant submitted CA08-21 for demolition of the existing house and proposed plans
for a new single-family residence for the site.
Staff has recommended approval of the Historic Overlay HL08-08 to record the history of
the house and to have input in the development of the proposed new home for this site.
Proposed design guidelines are attached.
