51351 Navarro (Avenida)
DPR 523L (09/2013)
Identifier: 773103007 Date Constructed: 1935
UTM Zone: 11S, 564445 mE / 3726367 mN
Neighborhood: The Cove
Tract: Santa Carmelita Unit No 14; Recorded June 30, 1935, MB 18/83
Owner and Address: Fenady Family Trust, John Andrew D Fenady Survivors Trust; 555 N Gower Street, Los Angeles CA 90004
Updated Description: Since the previous survey, the 51351 Avenida Navarro subject property has been significantly altered. At
the time of the current survey, the residence was under construction. The stucco exterior had been removed, with the residence
covered in construction wrapping. The red tile roofing had been removed, with the roof under construction. The original rustic-
looking door appears to have been removed, with the entry way under construction. The stained vertical wood siding at the roof
gable and the exposed beams at the roofline were still extant.
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 alterations impacted the overall integrity of the dwelling. 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 is now a non-contributor due to significant exterior alterations to elevations
facing the public right-of-way.
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 been substantially altered, it no longer
maintains integrity from the historic period.

A good example of Spanish Colonial Revival ranch homes built in this neighborhood in 1935. This "I" shaped
house has a very low-pitched red tile roof, with stained vertical wood siding within the gables --an original
feature. The walls are stucco. Also original is the rustic -looking wood door (left of center) with "Z" timbering
and what appears to be a decorative steel or iron plate that covers a peep hole. Sash windows also are original
(a pair right of center, and one centered in the right wing), but the original wooden garage doors still existing
at some of these models are absent from the left wing; a plain stucco wall is here instead. Characteristic of
these houses is a central open "court" at front, with only one small projecting wall (from the garage side) to
slightly enclose it. To the right of the house is a two car carport with a roof taller than the house. It is obvious
an effort was made to match the carport with the style of the house, however the carport looks excessively
large next to the older petite house. The yard (except for the cinderblock fence at back) landscaping
complements the rustic appearance of this house, with its sandy forefront, grass, palm trees and few other
plants.
