HISTORIC RESOURCES SURVEY M Tampa, Florida MONTANA SURVEYED STRUCTURES a 0 1/4 1/2 1 MILE Introduction In 1972 when the U.S. Congress passed the Coastal Zone Management Act to encourage careful development of the nation's coastal resources, protection of historic resources was included as a required element if a state expected approval of its coastal management plan. The importance of historic resources was reiterated in a 1980 amendment to the Act. That amendment not only stated that protection, preservation and restoration of historic resources was a congressional objective, it provided funding to achieve these goals. Although funds were designated for low-cost construction projects and planning activities related to historic resources inventories, the funds did not become available until 1985. Florida's Department of Environmental Regulation applied for and received funding to administer the state's coastal management program in 1985. In January 1986 the office of Coastal Management announced that it was accepting applications for projects dealing with protection and management of natural coastal resources, management of coastal development, improved public access to coastal areas and improved predictablility and efficiency in government decision-making. The availability of these funds corresponded with the need to survey Tampa's historic resources to comply with elements of the recently passed State Comprehensive Plan and the Growth Management Plan of 1985. This growth management act requires all municipalities and counties to adopt comprehensive plans that are consistent with the State Comprehensive Plan. Under rule 9J-5 of this act, historic preservation must be considered in housing, future land use and coastal provisions. The City of Tampa Planning Department and Hillsborough County's City-County Planning Commission would be required to survey and document historic properties in order to comply with the future land use provision by providing maps depicting historic properties worth protecting. Since its creation by the Florida Legislature in 1975 as an agency of the Department of State, the Historic Tampa/Hillsborough County Preservation Board has undertaken historic resources survey and evaluation as funding from Federal and State preservation agencies became available. The Board's first major surveys, completed in 1979, were broadly-based and in some cases, cursory. Eight Tampa neighborhoods (Hyde Park, Davis Islands, Downtown, Tampa Heights, West Tampa, Ybor City, Port Tampa, and Sulphur Springs) and the county's two smaller municipalities, Temple Terrace and Plant City, were included in this effort. Although 557 structures were identified and listed in the survey report, approximately 30% were never officially recorded as Florida Master Site Files; and thus, not included in the statewide inventory of historic sites. This was especially the case in Port Tampa and Temple Terrace. Only one site file 4 for Temple Terrace, and eight for Port Tampa, were transmitted to the Bureau of Historic Preservation at the conclusion of the survey. The survey did identify potential historic districts in West Tampa and Hyde Park. These neighborhoods were surveyed in depth subsequently and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. As development pressure increased in Hillsborough County and planning agencies prepared to comply with the growth management act, coordination with the Preservation Board and requests for historic resources data accelerated. In addition, Preservation Board staff was well aware of the need to extend survey activity into neighborhoods not previously examined, such as Seminole Heights, Bayshore, Ballast Point, Palmetto Beach, Palma Ceia, and Beach Park, as well as return to areas like Port Tampa. A coastal management historic resources survey seemed a logical means to pursue preservation planning and protection in 1986. Subsequent to the board's application to the Department of Environmental Regulation for $36,200 in preservation funding undex the coastal management program, the City of Tampa with advisory assistance from the Preservation Board director contracted with consultants to prepare a landmarks and historic district ordinance and guidelines. Thus, the development of tools for protecting historic resources continued parallel to the comprehensive survey and identification of resources that might be protected, each process making the other more effective. By September 30, 1987 both goals of the DER grant; that is, further resource identification and the drafting of a protective ordinance, had been achieved. The ordinance is scheduled for its first review by City Council on October 1, 1987. 5 Survey Methodology The historic resources survey was two-fold and involved both documentary research and detailed mapping of every site in each neighborhood. in addition, each surveyed structure was photographed. During the first phase of the project (October 1986), the research assistant studied Hillsborough County Records, plat maps, the Sanborn Company fire insurance maps of the City of Tampa and the Tampa City directories to determine the historic boundaries of the seven selected neighborhoods. In two cases, that is, Seminole Heights and Palma Ceia, boundaries were reduced due to the sheer volume anticipated and because of clearer understanding of the development of one area. The Palma Ceia appellation had become generic and included the historically distinct suburbs of Parkland Estates and New Suburb Beautiful. If all neighborhoods were to be studied within the funded period, only the oldest core of these larger ones could be surveyed. once boundaries were established, it was possible to select the appropriate base maps and aerial photographs for the mapping phase and to set survey priorities. Requests for data from planning agencies provided the impetus to begin with Palmetto Beach and Beach Park. A traffic corridor study in Palmetto Beach which appeared initially to present a threat to structures on 22nd Street led to establishing that as the first survey area. A Development of Regional Impact Study for Westshore required that the contiguious Beach Park be considered second. Because a body of data had been assembled previously for Port Tampa, it was ranked last. The criteria for selecting buildings to be surveyed was similar to that of the National Register of Historic Places (See Appendix A) which stresses local importance as well as national significance in association with the broad patterns of American history. Thus, properties in Palmetto Beach associated with Tampa's cigar industry or the neighborhood schools associated with the development of the Hillsborough County educational system can be considered along with architect-designed Mediterranean Revival homes in Beach Park which are associated with the Florida Land Boom of 1924-26, an event of national scoop with substantial local manifestations. 6 Although the National Register normally only considers properties over 50 years old, the project staff set 1939 for the age criterion because the structures dating from that year would be -50 years old when the survey results are added to the City's Comprehensive Plan. Further, building styles, plans and materials did not change significantly until after of World War II. Rather, changes took the form of a decrease in size and scale. Because documenting and preserving local building styles and traditions is an important goal in historic resources survey, sufficient architectural integrity, i.e, minimal reversible alterations, is a critical factor in evaluating sites to be surveyed. Buildings with enveloping additions or enclosures or major changes in fenestration would not be recorded. With boundaries defined and criteria established, field work and preparation of Florida Master Site Files could proceed. For each neighborhood, this involved preparing a potential list of sites to be recorded. This was drawn from the 1939 Tampa City Directory and cross referenced with the most current, 1986 City Directory. Buildings, or more specifically, addresses listed in both volumes comprised the potential site list. A windshield survey then followed in which each site was inspected to verify if it was extant and would meet the survey criterion. Because of the heated development atmosphere in Tampa, it was not unusual to find 10-20 historic addresses replaced by modern construction or condominiums. This was especially the case in such desirable waterfront areas as Ballast Point or Bayshore. The windshield survey usually yielded additions as well as losses. After the survey list was defined, each site was photographed according to standards set by the Department of State's Bureau of Historic Preservation. Initially the requirement was for contact sheets only incorporating 2 or 3 views of each site. While the survey progressed, the Florida Master Site File Coordinator requested that we provide 3" x 51v photographs which are clearly more useful. Florida Master Site Files were then prepared. (See Appendix B for samples.) This involved a physical inspection plan of the structure, a sketch of the building and its site, analysis of style, materials, condition, use, and assessment of alterations, and accumulation of elements for a physical description. When the field work was completed, the project staff began the documentary research. The research assistant searched tax records to identify the owner of each property and its legal description. She then searched city directories, fire insurance maps and photographic archives to establish construction dates and ownership histories. This material and the data from the field inspection was then combined for the form's statement of significance, a narrative summary of the data which provides additional information on architectural and social history. A complete Florida Master Site File includes geographic data. Thus, the final phase involved locating the structure on a USGS map in its township, range and section and by its UTM coordinates. The form also requires a sketch map with the building footprint and its surroundings. As the files were completed they were transmitted to the Florida Master Site File Coordinator who assigned numbers and added them to the computerized inventory for Hillsborough County All Master Sites Files were transmitted and assigned numbers by September 23, 1987. copies of each inventory form with research notes, negative numbers, and quick reference lists are on file at the Preservation Board offices. Simultaneously architectural assistants began drafting districts maps, again according to Preservation Board and National Register standards, that is at a scale of 1" = 2001 using base maps and aerial photos purchased from the City of Tampa. As each map was completed and recorded structures labeled, resource concentration or dispersement emerged, enabling more precise evaluation of historic and district potential. Completed maps have been copied and sent with the report to planning agencies in the City of Tampa and Hillsborough County. The seven neighborhood survey yielded 871 Florida Master site Files, representing almost one-fifth of the state's yearly average. A total of 2,740 structures were evaluated in an approximately 5562.6 acre area. Historic Resources Survey The survey results are presented below by neighborhood. Each section includes a map, boundary description, numerical data, a brief history of the area, and recommendations related to the National Register of Histor-Lc Places. A list of all sites within each neighborhood by street name follows and includes the map number, the street address, the Florida Master Site File number, the style abbreviation and estimated date of construction. The style code is as follows: AF-American Foursquare MR-Mediterrean Revival B-Bungalow MCB-Masonry Commercial Building BCB-Brick Commercial Building MV-Masonry Vernacular CR-Colonial Revival. NC-Neoclassical Revival DC-Dutch Colonial P-Prairie Style E-Eclectic Revival PA-Princess Anne F-Frame QA-Queen Anne FCB-Frame Commercial Building S-Shotgun FV-Frame Vernacular SH-Shingle GR-Gothic Revival SE-Spanish Eclectic IR-Italianate Revival TR-Tudor Revival M-Mission Style 9 PALMETTO BEACH: South of Ybor City Boundaries: S. of Garden St., W. of 28th St. and Bermuda Blvd., N. of Oceanview Ave., and E. of 19th St. Florida Master Site Files were prepared for 103 of a possible 480 evaluated sites built prior to 1939. This represents 21% of the historic structures in the area. History: Palmetto Beach's history revolves around the presence of three cigar factories which were built c. 1897. The area was platted shortly thereafter. The Tampa Palmetto Beach Railway Streetcar Line, begun in 1894, encouraged initial growth, however. In addition to the many cigar worker's houses, built in the form of shotguns, bungalows or duplexes, the area includes the two-story frame vernacular manufacturer's houses at 2214 Harper Street and 2220 Stuart Street. Included in the area is the waterfront DeSoto Park, the site of the Tin Can Tourists Camp in 1921. These campers came to Florida in 1921, managed to have in inexpensive winter vacation by lived in their cars, and set the stage for the Florida Land Boom of 1924-26. A hurricane devastated the area in that same year and many of the houses were completed in the two to three years following. The DeSoto Elementary School (now known as East Tampa Elementary), was built in 1924, in response to the rapidly growing area. Housing types, streetscapes and land use patterns are similar to those found in Ybor City and West Tampa, earlier cigar manufacturing centers. Recommendations: Although the area lacks sufficient density to gualify as a National Register Historic District, the structures related to the cigar industry, both the factories and the manufacturer's houses, could be eligible as a Multiple Properties nomination. These structures include the following: Factory, 202 22nd St. Factory, 402 22nd St. Factory, 201-5 26th St. Manufacturers Houses, 2220 Stuart St. and 2214 Harper St. DeSoto (East Tampa) Elementary School, could be included in a thematic or multiple properties nomination for educational buildings. 10 C*O..Iowv a I 0 D: 0 o A."

B St., W. of Lois Ave., N. of Watrous Ave., and E. of Old Tampa Bay. Florida Master Site Files were completed for a total of 91 out of a possible 124 historic sites in this area, thus representing 74%. History: The Beach Park Company, led by developers T. Roy Young, Willaim Trice and M.H. and G.E. Mabry, began development in the area in 1924. Franklin 0. Adams, Jr., the principal architect for Beach Park, was chairman of its' architectural review board. Thus, the community was established as an upper class neighborhood restricted to residential development subject to design review. It encompassed 350 acres on Old Tampa Bay. The Beach Park field office was designed by Jefferson Hamilton, Adams' partner. The area is characterized by large Mediterranean Revival homes designed by academically-trained architects, and a neighborhood plan of winding streets and man-made canals and bayous. Recommendations: The area has considerable potential as a National Register thematic group based on the design quality, the neighborhood plan, and the association with the Florida Land Boom of the 1920's. This multiple properties thematic group would include only the 78 properties associated with The Beach Park Company's original development. The Mediteranean Revival Style is represented well here and architectural quality in many cases surpasses that of Davis Islands. 15 'J 0 221 aj-@- --v J C i rev 0 1@ C--J UE-3 19 DD[;"ru@ El a E? 0 13 CUD D [L 46 11 a& <@o 4#@ D6 !I CJ ID 71 :r star qjpAr.

A total of 163 structures were recorded on Florida Master Site Files. This figure represents 22% of the evaluated sites. History: Conceived in 1913 by developer T. Roy Young, who later developed Beach Park, the neighborhood lost much of its harmony when split by 1-275 in the 19601s. The neighborhood was home to the hard working people of Tampa: the city clerks, judges, school superintendents and teachers, as well as merchants, and firemen. Hillsborough High School, built in 1927, by Francis J. Kennard, is an impressive Gothic Revival building and seems to provide a unifying force to the neighborhoood as the structures in close proximity possess the finest architectural integrity. The housing stock in this area consists of well-built bungalows and frame vernacular houses set amidst oak lined streets that run parallel to the Hillsborough River. The area is similar to sections of the Hyde Park Historic District, but at reduced scale. Bungalows with wraparound porches and truncated poured concrete columns Craftsmen or oriental detailing are smaller versions of their' Hyde Park counterparts. Although development began there earlier, Hyde Park was expanding at about the same time as T. Roy Young's original Central Avenue subdivision was platted in 1913. Both Florida Avenue to the West, Buffalo Avenue to the South, along with the Northern portion of Central Avenue, represent commercial areas which have succumbed to the pressures of post World War II growth and redefined traffic patterns. This, coupled with the intrusion of 1-275 which split the neighborhood in half, has created new and artificial boundaries to the neighborhood. Recomendations: The core of the Seminole Heights neighborhood has potential as a National Register Historic District. This area is contiguous to Hillsborough High School and is encompassed in the area from Wilder Avenue to Hillsborough Avenue and Central Avenue to Branch Avenue. or, Hillsborough High School could be included in a Multiple Properties thematic nomination for educational buildings. 20 opo ifi jj c-, c 1; '[3 jgflODUDUgl@01, o lI EFD 0 i@o , 011 Lq @0 0 117 0 D b a' C3;m El 0 Llpi c n@-4f M, L3 C7..0 D q@ , . 2-112-4,ips I.

A total of 92 sites have received Florida Master Site File number assignment, thus representing 23% of the evaluated structures. History: This area has long been associated with the maritime history of Tampa. Schooners travelling in and out of the harbor picked this natural projection as the spot to load or unload their ballast material. The area was originally laid out as a pleasure resort and had as its focal point, a large Japanese style pavillion, extending out into the bay. Emilia Chapin, A wealthy New Yorker, was responsible for much of the development of the area, and had the pavilion built in 1894. Housing stock in this area has a very wide range from the grand two story Queen Anne houses to the very modest bungalows and frame vernacular structures. This area is greatly dispersed as development pressqres have destroyed much of the historic fabric. Evaluation: This area lacks sufficient density for a National Register Historic District, however, local designation could be assigned to the Biglow House at 4807 Bayshore Blvd., and two more significant structures located at 4701 MacDill Ave., and 5801 Gordon Ave. 26 r-- 0 a, D MOP M @2= 0-00L.. 02-of Dq,[email protected] El 0 0joiJEWOM DCD@u - - - -J& UqC8 .0oco V J.
