52042 Herrera (Avenida)
DPR 523L (09/2013)
Identifier: 773224023 Date Constructed: 1937
UTM Zone: 11S, 564007 mE; 3725823 mN
Neighborhood: The Cove
Tract: Santa Carmelita Unit No 10; Recorded October 31, 1934, MB 18/70
Owner and Address: Carroll Family Trust,, Charles Carroll; 52042 Avenida Herrera, La Quinta CA 92253
Updated Description: The 52042 Avenida Herrera residence was constructed in 1937 in the La Quinta Cove neighborhood. The
single-family residence was constructed in the Spanish Colonial Revival style with an "L" shaped plan. The home has a multi-level
shed roof clad in red tiles. Exterior walls are clad in stucco. There are three vigas along the slanted roofline. During the prior 1997
survey, the residence was largely obscured by a high privacy wall. During the current survey, the subject property was largely
obscured by vegetation. The only visible portion is the property is the double-door front entry.
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. Pending additional in-person evaluation,
the dwelling may retain a sufficient level of integrity from the 1935 to 1950 period of significance for individual designation. The
district is not formally designated, and the property is assigned a 5B status code: Locally significant both individually (listed, eligible,
or appears eligible) and as contributor to a multi-component resource like a district that is locally listed, designated, determined
eligible, or appears eligible through survey evaluation.
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; 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.
This property appears to individually embody the distinctive characteristics of a Spanish Colonial Revival style “casita” bungalow
built in the Cove during the 1930s and, pending additional in-person observation, may be considered individually significant under
Local Criterion C for embodying the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction. Due to limited visibility
during the current survey, the integrity of the dwelling could not be determined.
