| Description: |
The Raymond-Summit Historic District is one of three neighborhoods in Pasadena with a high concentration of adjoining, intact residential buildings from the late 19th/early 20th century. The buildings in this district reflect both high-style and vernacular property subtypes of the Single Family Residence property type identified in the Multiple Property Documentation Form, “Late 19th and Early 20th Century Development and Architecture in Pasadena,” including Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, American Foursquare, Folk Victorian, and Vernacular Hipped and Gabled Cottages. Generally, properties in the district have a one or two-story main house from the period of significance situated at the front behind a landscaped yard, a concrete driveway on one side of the house, and a newer detached garage or additional residential units at the rear. The positioning of each of these elements on the lots and their relationship to the street and to each other are relatively uniform. The streets are lined with mature trees and four properties have mature Canary Island date palm in their front yards. Although there is uniformity in the features of the public right-of-way in the district, they appear to datefrom a later period.
Many of the contributing houses have had minor alterations. Despite these alterations and newer additions at the rear of the properties, the feeling of the district from the public right-of-way is one of a late 19th/early 20th century middle class neighborhood. The surrounding area outside the district boundaries has a similar residential character, but the houses have either been altered or were built in different time periods unrelated to the specific context of this nomination. As compared to the other two districts being nominated under this context, the houses in the Raymond-Summit Historic District are generally larger, higher style architect-designed houses that were built for wealthier clients.
