As is typical of Park City hall and parlor houses, it has a symmetrical fayade with a door set slightly off-center between two windows, and a porch centered over the openings on the fayade. The house is two rooms deep with an original rear shed extension that was added after the original construction. It projects beyond the west wall, and a door that possibly provides access to a wood or coal shed was added to the south side of that projection. In-period rear extensions are part of Park City's architectural vocabulary. Although in many cases an extension represents a major alteration of the original house, it usually contributes to the significance of a house because it documents the most common and acceptable method of expansion of the small Park City house. There are two other entrances both into the rear shed extensions on the east and west sides. There is a window in each of the gable ends. All of the windows are the one over one double hung sash type. Except for the addition of the rear shed extension, which is an unobtrusive change, the house is essentially unaltered and maintains its original integrity." According to the Building Department, since the writing of this description, the house has been reconstructed entirely, with several major alterations. The largest alteration is the lack of accurate reconstruction of the front porch and it's covering structure. On the west side of the front fayade, the two windows flanking the middle window have been added as well. The side gable roofis covered by asphalt shingles. The foundation is concrete, and was put in as part of the reconstruction. The changes made to the structure and the lack of original materials being used in the reconstruction diminish the historic value of the home significantly. 5 HISTORY Architect/Builder: unknown Date of Construction: c. 1895 Historic Themes: Mark themes related to this property with "s" or "c" (S = significant, C = contributing).

From the 1984 National Register nomination: "Built c. 1890, this house at 577 Deer Valley Road is architecturally significant as one of76 extant hall and parlor houses in Park City, 22 of which are included in this nomination. The hall and parlor house, the earliest house type to be built in Park City, and one of the three most common house types that were built during the early period of Park City's mining boom era, significantly contributes to the character of the residential area. "Built by at least 1907, as indicated by the Sanborn Insurance Maps which first covered this area that year, this house was probably constructed in the 1880s or 1890s, as were the majority of Park City's hall and parlor houses. The exact date of construction and the name of the original owner are unknown. By at least 1910 this property, referred to as the "8th house, north side of Deer Valley Road," indicate that it was owned by Rachel and George Urban, who also owned the 2 nd , 3rd , and 192 Park City Preservation Consulting, CRSAArchitecture 5th houses along that road as well as property in other parts of town. It is uncertain whether or not those four numbered houses were part of a group of five houses at 321,339,345,555, and 777 involving the Urbans in 1912 (see 555 Deer Valley Road). The 1910 census records, which listed the address for many households surveyed, do not list the address for this house, so it is difficult to determine who was living here at that time. "Rachel Urban was the principal madame of Park City's red light district, which was concentrated on Heber Avenue, the lower portion of Deer Valley Road. There is no substantial evidence, however, to support as assumption that this was one of her "business houses." The documented red light district in Park City is not known to have extended this far east out oftown, and older residents of the area claim that these houses along Deer Valley Road were all occupied only by miners and laborers. The census records appear to support that claim. Like the other property holding of the Urbans in other parts of town, it is likely that this house, too, was used as investment property. Other owners of the property include Roy Pederson, Ethel M. Kimber and Alma H. Pederson." The site has subsequently been developed, with a modem condominium constructed in between the historic 577 and 555 Deer Valley Road. While the house and condominium are not physically connected, the larger surrounding structures diming the historic integrity of the site. Furthermore, reconstruction during this renovation in the first decade of the 2000s utilized non-original materials to a large degree, significantly diminishing the historic integrity ofthe house.

Essential Historical Form: 0' Retains Location: 0 Original Location 0 Does Not Retain, due to: 0' Moved (date _200? __ ) Original Location: Within current site. Design (The combination of physical elements that create the form, plan, space, structure, and style. Describe additions and/or alterations from the original design, including dates--known or estimated--when alterations were made): According to the Building Department, this one-story hall-parlor house was completely reconstructed using very little of the original material. The description provided in the National Register nomination has not been accurately reconstructed due to the failure to reconstruct the front porch and by the use of window openings that were not part of the original design. (see Structure/Site Form, 1983). Setting (The physical environment--natural or manmade--of a historic site. Describe the setting and how it has changed over time.): The setting has changed due to the house being reconstructed as part of a larger development, but the close proximity of surrounding structures is not uncommon in Park City's historic neighborhoods. Workmanship (The physical evidence of the crafts of a particular culture or people during a given period in history. Describe the distinctive elements.): The physical evidence from the period does not exist, but the elements typically found on Park City's mining era homes are evident--plan finishes, side gable roof form, restrained ornamentation, and wood siding (though siding was typically painted). Feeling (Describe the property's historic character.): The physical elements of the site, in combination, do not effectively convey a sense of life in a western mining town of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Association (Describe the link between the important historic era or person and the property.): The Hall-Parlor house form is the earliest type to be built in Park City and one of the three most common house types built in Park City during the mining era; however, the extent of the fact that this is an inaccurate reconstruction significantly diminishes its association with the past. This site was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1984 as part of the Park City Mining Boom Era Residences Thematic District. It was originally built within the historic period, defined as 1872 t01929 in the district nomination. However, because the building has been reconstructed, it would no longer be considered eligible for the National Register as part of an updated or amended nomination. As a result, it does not meet the criteria set forth in LMC Chapter 15-11 for designation as a Landmark Site. It, however, retains important local historic significance and meets the criteria set forth in LMC Chapter 15-11 for designation as a Significant Site. 5 SIGNIFICANCE Architect: 0' Not Known Builder: 0 Not Known 0 Known: (source:) 0 Known: (source: ) Date of Construction: c. 1895 , Park City, Utah Page 3 of 3 The site must represent an important part of the history or architecture of the community. A site need only be significant under one of the three areas listed below: 1. Historic Era: Settlement & Mining Boom Era (1868-1893) Mature Mining Era (1894-1930) o Mining Decline & Emergence of Recreation Industry (1931-1962) o o Park City was the center of one of the top three metal mining districts in the state during Utah's mining boom period of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and it is one of only two major metal mining communities that have survived to the present. Park City's houses are the largest and bestpreserved group of residential buildings in a metal mining town in Utah. As such, they provide the most complete documentation of the residential character of mining towns of that period, including their settlement patterns, building materials, construction techniques, and socio-economic make-up. The residences also represent the state's largest collection of nineteenth and early twentieth century frame houses. They contribute to our understanding of a significant aspect of Park City's economic growth and 1 architectural development as a mining community. 2.

Researcher: Roger Roper Date: 4/84 Street Address: 4w ex: 577 Deer Valley Road Architectl Builder: Building Materials: . Wood -!:: Building Type/Style: Hall & Par lor House ct Description of physical appearance & significant archit~ct.ural features: ~ I- Site No: (,,) w :z: (,,) ex: ._ (Include additions, alterations, ancillary structures, and landscaping If applicable) This house is a one story frame hall and parlor house with a gable roof. As is typical of Park City hall and parlor houses, it has a rectangul ar fonn oriented broadside to the street, a generally symmetrical facade with a door set slightly off-center between two windows, and a porch centered over the openings on the facade. The house is two rooms deep with an original rear shed extension which makes the house look like a saltbox type. There is a second smaller shed extension that was added after the original construction. It projects beyond the west wall, and a door that possibly provides access to a wood or coal shed was added to the south side of that projection. In-period rear extensions are part of Park City's architectural vocabulary. Although in many cases an extension represents a major alteration of the original house, it ususa11y contributes to the significance of a house because it documents . the most common and acceptable method of expansion of the small Park city house. There are two other entrances, both into the rear shed extensions on the east and west sides. These is a window in each of the gable ends. All of the windows are the one over one double hung sash type. Except for the : ' addition of the rear shed extension, which is an unobtrusive change, the house is essentially unaltered and maintains its original integrity. 5 >ex: o I~ :z: Statement of Historical Significance: Construction Date: Built c. 1890, this house at 577 Deer Valley Road is architecturally significant as one of 76 extant hall and parlor houses in Park City, 22 of which are included in this nomination. The hall and parlor house, the earliest house type to be built in Park City, and one of the three most common house types that were built during the early period of Park City's mining boom era, significantly contributes to the character of the residential area. Built by at least 1907, as indicated by the Sanborn Insurance Maps which first covered this area that year, this house was probably constructed in the 1880s or 1890s, as were the majority of Park City's hall and parlor houses. The exact date of construction and the name of the original owner are unknown. By at least 1910 this property, referred to as the "8th house, north side of Deer Vall ey Road, indicate that it was owned by Rachel and George Urban, who al so owned the 2nd, 3rd, and 5th houses along that road as well as property in other parts of town. It is uncertain whether or not those four numbered houses were part of the group of five houses at 321, 339, 345, 555, and 777 Deer Valley Road, which were referred to in another property transaction involving the Urbans in 1912 (see 555 Deer Valley Road). The 1910 census records, which listed the addresses for many of the households surveyed, do not list the address for this house, so it is difficult to detemine who was living here at that time. II Rachel Urban was the principal madame of Park City's red light district, which was concentrated on Heber Avenue, the lower portion of Deer Valley Road. There is no substantial evidence, however, to support an assumption that this was one of her "business houses." The documented red light district in Park City is not known to have extended this far east out of town, and older (See continuation sheet) c. 1890 577 Deer Valley Road History continued: residents of the area claim that these houses along Deer Valley Road were all occupied only by miners and laborers. 1 The census records appear to support that claim. Like the other property holdings of the Urbans in other parts of town, it is likely that this house,too, was used as investment property. Other owners of the property include Roy Pederson, Ethel M. Kimber and Alma H. Pederson. 1 Interviews with Sea Kummer (February 10, 1984), and Gladys Dennis (January 25, 1984), Park City, Utah, and Norma Cowin (March 6, 1984) Salt Lake City, Utah.
