Building Type/Style: The home is a brick cottage with an original leanto on the rear also of brick. On the front facade there are four windows and a central door, all symmetrically placed and all five piercings have wooden pediments above them. The home rests upon a foundation of cut black rOCK and the brickwork is common bond. The Greek Revival style cornice is quite elaborate, displaying paired scroll brackets. Just below this wooden cornice are two courses of decorative brickwork. The only alteration on the house is a front porch, which is probably historic, but not very compatible with the rest of the home. ~_~7____- '_________________________________________________________________________________________________ 6 >- 0: o l- v, I Statement of Historical Significance: o Aboriginal Americans o Agriculture d Architecture o The Arts o Commerce o o o o o Communication Conservation Education Exploration/Settlement Industry o o o o o Military Mining Minority Groups Political Recreation o Religion o Science o Socio-Humanitarian o Transportation The home is significant because of its historic construction date, its unaltered appearance and its style. The style of this home may be considered in many "JaYs to represent an ideal architectural image for many pioneers. As such, this ideal was sought after and commonly built by many town residents who had achieved some prosperity. The horne is significant because it is a lovely example of a nicely designed, vernacular brick cottage that is still in its original condition. Its proportions are pleasing, its appearance is formal (due to the symmetry of its door and windows"and its neat, square lines) and it is formally decorated with its pediments and cornice. In these ways, the cottage represents a modest, ideal pioneer home in the early Utah-Mormon culture.

SMITH. DIRECTOR . 300 RIO GRANDE SALT lAKE CITY. UTAH 84101 TELEPHONE [phone] Dear Mr. Smith: Shortly after completion of the review meetings and comment deadlines for consideration of the nomination of those buildings in Beaver \<Jhich appear eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic places, Congress passed ammendments to the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966. One of the ammendments formalized a procedure that had already been in effect here in Utah--providing the owners of properties under consideration for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places, the opportunity to object to the listing. Your property, at J95 North 100 West, has been recommended for nomination. If listed in the National Register of Historic Places there are no restrictions placed on you as a property owner. You are still able to sell, renovate, demolish or alter your property just the same as if it were not 1i sted in the National Register. The purpose of the listing is to document and identify those buildings, houses and sites and structures, which help us understand the past history and development of communities, the state, or the nation. There are some tax benefits for rehabilitation work on commercial buildings and one tax penalty if you demolish a listed bui·lding • . The tax penalty is that you are not able to write off as an allowable expense the demolition costs. If you wish to object to the listing of your property in the National Register you must submit to us a notarized statement that you are the owner of the property and that you object to its listing in the National Register of Historic Places. The notarized letter will insure that your property will not be listed in the Register and only a determination of the property's eligibility for the National Register will be made. The notarized statement objecting to the nomination must be submitted before May 1st of this year at which time the nomination will be forwarded to the National Register Office for final action. We would also appreciate any letters in support of the nomination of your property. I will be in Beaver on Tuesday March 16th at the Beaver County Courthouse in the Commision Chambers from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. to answer any questions about the nomination and any other questions you may have.

Papanikolas • DaVie S '~onson • Elizabeth Griffith • William D. Owens One final note, the Utah State Historical Society has received funds to publish the study of Beaver compiled by linda Bonar which led to this nomination of Beaver's historic properties. The publication is patterned after a book published in 1980, The Avenues of Sal t lake Ci ty, whi ch has been recei ved with great enthusiasm by residents of the Avenues and others interested in Utah history. The publication on Beaver will include an historical overview, section on Beaver's architectural · history, and a photograph and short history of each of the historic buildings in the community. I am enclosing a copy of the structure/site information form which will be used in preparing the history of your property. Pl ease read it and if you have any additional information or corrections please send them to me, or stop by the courthouse on March 16th. I will have a copy of the Avenues book wi th me so that you can see the format for the Beaver publication which we hope to have ·out the end of this year or early in 1983. Inclusion of your property in the National Register or in the proposed publication does not mean that tourists and visitors have any right to tour your house or trespass on your property. We have not had reports with this being a problem. It is always a pleasure for me to be in Beaver--your community is unique in the state and your efforts . at preserving the historical resources of your community will be greatly appreciated by future generations •.. Pl ease send any comments to me at the Utah State Hi stori cal Society, 300 Rio Grande, Salt lake City, Utah, 84101, or call me at 533-6017. If you are in Sal t lake City pl ease stop by our offices in the Denver and Ri.Q..Grande Rail road Depot loacted at 450 West on 300 South. Sincerel~ it~~i A.

SMITH, DIRECTOR 300 RIO GRANDE SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH 84101 TELEPHONE 801 / 533-5755 Dear Mr. Smi th: It is my distinct pleasure to inform you that on September 9, 1982 the John Ruphard Lee House at 195 North 100 West, nominated by the Historic and Cultural Sites Review Committee and the Utah State Historic Preservation Officer, was officially listed on the National Register of Historic Places by the National Park Service and Ms. Carol Shull, Acting Keeper of the National Register. The National Register of Historic places is the official list of historic properties recognized by the Federal Government as worthy of preservation for their significance in American history, architecture, archeology, engineering and culture. Located in the National Park Service, Department of the Interior, the program is part of a national policy to coordinate and support public and private efforts to identify, evaluate, and protect our cultural and natural resources, and is maintained by the Secretary of the Interior under provisions of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966. Listing in the National Register provides the following benefits to historic properties: -Consideration in the planning for federally assisted projects. Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 provides that the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation be given an opportunity to comment on projects affecting such properties. -Eligibility for Federal tax benefits for rehabilitations of certain historic commercial, industrial and residential rental buildings. -Consideration of historic values in the decision to issue a surface coal mining permit where coal is located, in accord with the Surface Mining and Control Act of 1977. State History Board: Milton C. Abrams, Chairman • Theron H. Luke • Ted J. Warner • Elizabeth Montague • Thomas G. Alexander Delio G. Dayton • Wayne K. Hinton • Helen Z. Papanikolas • David S. Monson • Elizabeth Griffith • William D. Owens -Qualification for Federal grants for historic preservation when funds are available. Listing does not mean that the Federal Government wants to acquire the property, place restrictive convenants on the land, or dictate the color or materials used on individual buildings. State and local ordinances or laws establishing restrictive zoning, special design review committees, or review of exterior alterations, are not a part of the National Register program and should be clearly separated from the function of the National Register as a tool in the Federal planning process. We would 1ike to send you an 11" x 1111 parchment certificate with the gold seal of Utah. It contains the name of the site, the nature of its significance, the date of listing, and the signatures of Governor Matheson, Milton Abrams, Chairman of the Historic and Cultural Sites Review Committee, and Melvin T. Smith, Director of the Utah State Historical Society and Utah's State Historic Preservation Officer. There is no charge. If you would like the certificate, please let us know by mail or call 533-6017. Our congratulations on the honor given you and the State of Utah. Si ncerel y, 7/ftt~~~::Y ~~/~ Melvin T.
