REHABILITATION IS DEFINED as the act orprocess of making possible a compatible use
for a property through repair, alterations and additions while preserving those portions or
features which convey its historical, cultural or architectural values
1. A property will be used as it was historically or be given a new use that requires minimal
change to its distinctive materials, features, spaces and spatial relationships.
2. The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The removal of
distinctive materials or alteration of features, spaces and spatial relationships that
characterize a properly will be avoided.
3. Each property will be recognized as a physical record of its time, place and use.
Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding conjectural
features or elements from other historic properties, will not be undertaken.
4. Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right will be
retained and preserved.
5. Distinctive materials, features, finishes and construction techniques or examples of
craftsmanship that characterize a property will be preserved.
6. Deteriorated historic features will be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity
of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match
the old in design, color, texture and where possible, materials. Replacement of missing
features will be substantiated by documentary and physical evidence.
7. Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, will be undertaken using the gentlest
means possible. Treatments that cause damage to historic materials will not be used.
8. Archeological resources will be protected and preserved in place. If such resources
must be disturbed, mitigation measures will be undertaken.
9. New additions, exterior alterations or related new construction will not destroy historic
materials, features and spatial relationships that characterize the properly. The new
work will be differentiated from the old and will be compatible with the historic
materials, features, size, scale and proportion and massing to protect the integrity of the
property and its environment.
10. New additions and adjacent or related new construction will be undertaken in such
manner that, if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic
property and its environment would be unimpaired.

Describe present and original (if known) physical appearance; include style(s) of architecture,
current condition and relationship to surrounding fabric (structures, objects, etc.). Elaborate on
pertinent materials used and style(s) of architectural detailing, embellishments and site details.
The former Foust Warehouse at 334 S. Barton Street measures approximately 30 feet wide by
100 feet deep (according to tax records). The 1-story structure is on the west side of South
Barton Street and sits close to the street. The building has a moderately -pitched gabled roof with
slightly overhanging eaves. The roof is covered with corrugated metal, as is the exterior of the
building. Utilitarian in design, the building was originally devoid of decorative detail. Entrances
on the east side were surmounted by small shed -roofs. A shed -roofed extension is located on
the southern half of the west end of the building.
Renovations to the former Foust Warehouse were completed in May 2010 when the building
became home to Cupid's Vault, a hand-crafted jewelry and gift store. An entrance with sidelights
was added to the south elevation of the building. Flanking this entrance are sliding doors of
corrugated metal with a cross -beam frame. A long pent roof of corrugated metal was installed
above the entrance and the sliding doors. Accent lighting was added on the gable end above the
pent roof.
Two entrances on the east elevation were modified with the insertion of multi -light sidelights and
transoms around new entrance doors. A single multi -light window is to the right of each entrance.
A third entrance is located near the north end of this elevation.
Foundation landscaping surrounds the building and a parking area to the south of the building is
also landscaped. A six-foot high corrugated fence follows the north -south property line and
partially obscures the extension on the west side. In addition, a six-foot high wood stockade
fence runs the length of the property on the west side.
16. Historical Significance
Statement of historical and cultural significance. Include: cultural influences, special events and
important personages, influences on neighborhood, on the city, etc.
J. (John) E. Foust arrived in Grapevine in 1880 with his widowed mother, Amanda, and his brother
George. Only 19 years old, John established a business selling general merchandise and lemon ice
(similar to a snow -cone) in a frame building. The frame building burned in 1889 and he moved his
business to a brick building he had constructed farther north on Main Street In this larger building,
Foust expanded his business. He bought out the interest of a coffin maker, J. M. Hamilton, and
began stocking coffins in his store. (Young, pp 48 and 202). In 1892, at the age of 30, John married
15-year old Daisy Adair Huitt. Mrs. Foust became an integral part of the business, especially when
the firm expanded into the undertaking business. Mr. Foust became a licensed embalmer in 1917,
After his death in 1926, Daisy, and her son, John Edward Foust II, continued to operate the business.
The company, which became known as the J.E. Foust and Son Funeral Home, moved into the former
J.E.M. Yates house at 523 S. Main in 1945 (Young, 48). The company is still in existence at this
location.
The former Foust Warehouse is located on land that was purchased from F. R. and Annie B. Groover
by J. E. and Daisy Foust in 1893. A Sanborn Map indicates that there was a stable on this parcel in
1921. Perhaps this was where the Fousts kept their horse-drawn hearse. At that date, the map shows
that Barton Street was little more than an alley directly behind the buildings on the west side of Main
Street. The Sanborn Fire Insurance Map from 1935 indicates that the alley, then referred to as
Barton Street, was much wider. The stable that appeared on the earlier map had been replaced with
a long building constructed of corrugated metal. It was labeled as a warehouse but at the southern
end of the building is the word "ambulance." It was not uncommon for funeral homes to offer
ambulance services in the days before the establishment of public emergency medical services and
Young's Grapevine Area History mentions that the Fousts operated such a service (Young, p. 48).
Records of the Tarrant Appraisal District state that the Foust Warehouse was constructed in 1929 but
records from the Tarrant County Tax Assessor's Office state that the building was constructed in
1934. The building remained in the Foust family until 1996. It was purchased by the current owner in
2008.
The former Foust Warehouse is significant for its association with a family and business that was
important to the development of Grapevine, providing a service that was essential for any community.
Although utilitarian in nature, it is an excellent example of an early 20th-century building type that
augmented the functions of commercial establishments in the years prior to World War ll.
