WHEREAS, an application was made by the Grapevine Historic Preservation
Commission requesting a historic landmark subdistrict designation by making application
for same with the Planning & Zoning Commission of the City of Grapevine, Texas as
required by State statutes and the zoning ordinances of the City of Grapevine, Texas and
all the legal requirements, conditions and prerequisites having been complied with, the
case having come before the City Council of the City of Grapevine, Texas after all legal
notices, requirements, conditions and prerequisites having been complied with; 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, location, lighting and types of signs and relation of signs to
traffic control and adjacent property, street size and adequacy of width for traffic
reasonably expected to be generated by the proposed use around the site and in the
immediate neighborhood, adequacy of parking as determined by requirements of this
ordinance for off-street parking facilities, location of ingress and egress points for parking
and off-street locating spaces, and protection of public health by surfacing on all parking
areas to control dust, effect on the promotion of health and the general welfare, effect on

to conserve the value of buildings and encourage the most appropriate use of land
throughout this city;
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Grapevine, Texas does find that there is
a public necessity for the granting of this historic landmark subdistrict, that the public
demands it, that the public interest clearly requires the amendment, that the zoning
changes do not unreasonably invade the rights of those who bought or improved property
with reference to the classification which existed at the time their original investment was
made; and does find that the historic landmark subdistrict designation lessens the
congestion in the streets, helps secure safety from fire, panic and other dangers; promotes
health and the general welfare; provides adequate light and air; prevents the overcrowding
of land; avoids undue concentration of population; facilitates the adequate provisions of
transportation, water, sewerage, schools, parks and other public requirements; 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 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.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
GRAPEVINE, TEXAS:

The prefabricated building occupying this site was erected in 1970. The building's exterior walls
and roof are made of metal components. Windows and doors are aluminum and steel. The
interior is partitioned creating several work spaces. A series of rental storage units were also
constructed along the south side of the property. The building is a non-contributing structure to the
historic Grapevine Township.
The City of Grapevine was incorporated in 1907 and that same year B. R. Wall opened his realty
company, the Wood-Wall Realty Company. The firm also dealt in livestock, hay, grain and feed.
According to tax records B. R.Wall owned this property on Barton Street in 1909, and it appears
to have remained in his family many years.
In 1967, Judge Floyd Gray served as Judge of the Tarrant County Justice of the Peace Court in
Precinct 3. Judge Gray located the court onto Barton Street next to Grapevine's original Jail
(Calaboose). According to tax records, in 1970 a metal building was erected on the property
which housed the court. Also constructed about that time were a series of rental storage units
running east and west on the south side of the property.
In 1979, Mrs. R. L. (Aunt Suzie)Slaughter and Mr. and Mrs. Johnnie R High Jr. purchased the
property. Aunt Suzie was a major financial supporter of the Grapevine Opry. Johnnie High was a
partner with Chisai Childs who produced the Grapevine Opry shows for about ten years. Johnnie
used this building as a business office and also managed the storage unit business.
In 1997, Phil R. Parker purchased the property and rented it until he sold it in 2009 to Don
Gerschick. The current tenant is Ohlook Productions, which offers theatrical training and produces
numerous shows each year exposing hundreds of area children to Arts programming.

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 facade of a property.
Utilitarian/privacy fences should not be installed in front of a historic building or beyond the line of the front
facade 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
Preoene,mtobi|ioe,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 pnyoen/ad, 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 si nifinanoe. Older structures or additions may
heve, at some time, been renovated with such care and skill that the renovation itself is worthy of
preservation.
EXTERIOR FINISHES
Original wood finishes should be maintained and painted or, when noomssery, 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 exioting, painting may be an appropriate treatment.

Pa;;e to Of . 13
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.
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 be designed to reflect the period of significance and follow the Design
Guidelines established for Grapevine's Historic Commercial and Residential Buildings.
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.

Pace '7 . of . 13
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.
lnfill 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 gvoova, 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 mxisbo, elements typical of the architectural style may be used. Historic photographs can
provide information on the original elements of the building.
