Identifier: 773211017 Date Constructed: 1936
UTM Zone: 11S, 563407 mE; 3725759 mN
Neighborhood: The Cove
Tract: Santa Carmelita Unit No 1, Recorded December 31, 1933, MB 18/46
Owner and Address: Ricardo Hernandez, Sophia Hernandez; 52123 Avenue Diaz, La Quinta CA 92253
Updated Description: The 52123 Avenida Diaz residence was constructed in 1936 in the La Quinta Cove neighborhood. The one
story single family residence was constructed in the Spanish Colonial Revival style with an "L" shaped plan. The residence has a
multi-level shed roof clad in red tiles. The subject property is surrounded by a high privacy wall and most is not visible from the public
right-of-way. The residence's stucco exterior, red tile slant roof, original false beams ends, and wood lintels are all still extant. Based
on what is visible, there does not appear to have been significant alterations to the dwelling since the previous survey but a detached
garage was constructed south of the residence in 2001, according to information from the Riverside County Assessor-County Clerk-
Recorder data on ParcelQuest.
Updated Significance: This dwelling is a contributor to the La Quinta Cove Thematic Historic District which is considered eligible
under Local Criterion B (events) for its association with the Residential Development theme. The Cove district is also considered
eligible under Local Register Criterion A (special element) as the first residential subdivision within the boundaries of the city
constructed with Spanish Revival style homes and eligible under Local Register Criterion E as a geographically definable area
possessing a concentration of buildings, structures, and improvements linked historically. The dwelling retains integrity from the
1935 to 1950 period of significance for the Cove. Because the district is not formally designated, it is assigned a 5D2 status code:
Contributor to a multi-component resource that is eligible for local listing or designation.
The dwelling has not been found individually eligible under NRHP/CRHR/Local Criterion A/1/B, as it has not been associated with
significant events or patterns of events in local, regional, state, or national history; not individually eligible under Criterion B/2/B, as it
has not been identified as having an association with an important person; not individually eligible under Criterion C/3/C, as it does
not embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction; and not individually eligible under Criterion
D/4/D, as further study of the dwelling would not appear to yield information which could be considered important in local, regional,
state, or national history. Additionally, the property was not found to be individually eligible under Local Register Criterion A, as it
was not found to exemplify a special element of the City of La Quinta. As the dwelling has not been substantially altered, this
dwelling maintains integrity from the historic period.
