54920 Juarez (Avenida)
DPR 523L (09/2013)
Identifier: CRM TECH 1885-39 Date Constructed: 1949
UTM Zone: 11S, 563461 mE / 3723317 mN
Neighborhood: The Cove
Tract: Santa Carmelita Unit No 25; Recorded October 31, 1938, MB 19/51
Owner and Address: Michael E Terry, Elizabeth P Terry; 3419 via Lido Soud #455, Newport Beach CA 92663
Updated Description: The subject property was constructed in 1950. CRM Tech described the property as a Ranch style single-
family residence in 2006. Urbana staff conclude that residence more specifically displays the characteristics of a Tract Ranch style
residential property. The residence has an "L" shaped plan with a low pitch gable roof with open eaves. The residence is clad stucco
and has an attached garage. Since the previous survey, the windows at the front elevation have been replaced with horizontal sliding
windows. There does not appear to have been any other alterations to the residence.
Updated Significance: A prior survey evaluated the property as status code 5D1 - contributor to a district that is listed or
designated locally. The current survey found that the dwelling was constructed within the proposed La Quinta Cove Historic District
during the period of significance, but the architectural style was not consistent with the Spanish Revival style associated with early
development within the Cove between 1934 and 1950. The dwelling is associated with the theme of Residential Development (1934-
1970s), but it does not possess individual documented significance in relation to this theme. The 2022 evaluation is that the property
should instead be assigned a 6Z status code: Found ineligible for NRHP, CRHR or Local Register 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 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.
