`P3a. Description: (Describe resource and its major elements. Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries.)
1510 Cypress Avenue is located on a rectangular-shaped double lot measuring 100' x 150' on the west side of Cypress Avenue
between EI Camino Real and Central Avenue. Built in 1928, 1510 Cypress Avenue is a one-story-over-partial basement, wood-
frame, single-family residence designed in the Spanish Colonial Revival sryle. The building is T-shaped in plan and clad with
smooth stucco. It is capped by a combination gable and hip clay tile roof at the front of the property and flat and shed roofs in the
rear. The foundation is concrete. Three auxiliary buildings are also located on the lot: a one-story detached garage with a flat
roof at the northwest corner of the property, a one-and-a-half-story gable-roofed apartment located immediately south of the
garage, and a one-story dressing room/storage shed located west of an in-ground swimming pool. The front of the property is
enclosed by a metal fence featuring a regular series of masonry piers. A paved and gated driveway along the north side of the lot
accesses the garage. Concrete patios and paths and mature trees are located around the exterior of the building.
The primary farade faces east and features four structural bays and a high, stuccoed, wood-frame wall at the south end of the
fa�ade. The southernmost structural bay features a large, slightly recessed, fixed, triangular wood-sash window and a tile vent
below a gable end of the tile roof. The second structural bay from the south projects out from the rest of the fa�ade. It features a
covered entry porch accessible by brick steps from the north, and is capped by a gable end of the tile roof. The porch features a
tile floor; iron railings; scrolled arched openings on the north, east, and south sides; and a tile vent. The primary entrance
consists of an arched, partially-glazed, flush wood door. (See Continuation Sheet)

The third structural bay from the south features three four-light, wood-sash casement windows with wood trim. This bay
terminates in a tile eave. A small patio within low stucco walls is located at the north end of the primary fa�ade. The
northemmost structural bay is recessed behind the patio. It is capped by a tile eave and features two three-light, wood-sash
casement windows with wood trim, one of which is located in an angled corner.
The north fa�ade faces the driveway and a small side yard and features four structural bays, none of which are in the same
plane. The eastemmost structural bay features two four-light, wood-sash casement windows. The second structural bay from the
east features a three-light, wood-sash casement window. These two bays terminate in a tile eave. The third structural bay from
the east features an uncovered porch with concrete and wood steps and a uvood handrail. It features two six-over-one, wood-
sash windows with lamb's tongues; a partially-glazed, paneled wood door (likely original); a clay pipe attic vent; and metal coping
at the roofline. The westernmost structural bay features a two-light wood-sash window at the basement; five six-over-one, wood-
sash windows with lamb's tongues; a clay pipe attic vent; and metal coping at the roofline.
The rear (west) fa�ade faces the detached garage, apartment, and rear yard and features three structural bays, none of which
are in the same plane. The northern structural bay features an uncovered porch with wood steps and handrails that lead up to a
paneled door. The bay also features two six-over-one, double-hung wood-sash windows with lamb's tongues and metal coping
at the roofline. The central structural bay features one six-over-one, double-hung wood-sash window with lamb's tongues and
metal coping at the roofline. The southern structural bay is set back a considerable distance behind a concrete patio and is
composed of two distinct portions. The narrow northem portion is clad in stucco, features a siiding aluminum sash window, and
terminates in metal coping. The southem portion is a one-story addition with a shed roof that serves as an enclosed sun room. It
is clad in horizontal and vertical wood siding and features two sliding aluminum sash windows. Beyond the addition, the top of a
stucco wall and tile eave can be seen. This wall, which was once a full-height exterior wall, contains a pair of wood French doors
that are likely original.
The south fa�ade faces the in-ground swimming pool and features four structural bays. The westernmost structural bay features
two six-over-one vinyl sash windows. The second structural bay from the west features two six-over-one vinyl windows and one
one-over-one vinyl window. These two bays terminate in metal coping. The third structurai bay from the west is the sun room
addition; it is clad in vertical wood siding and features a sliding aluminum sash window and a sliding aluminum door. Beyond the
addition, the top of a stucco wall with a tile vent and metal coping can be seen. This wall, which was once a full-height exterior
wall, contains three six-over-one, wood-sash windows with lamb's tongues that are likely original. The easternmost structural
bay, which features a large aluminum sash window with fixed and casement lights, is capped by the gable end of a tile roof.
A one-story detached garage is located in the northwest corner of the lot and its primary far�ade faces east. It is rectangular in
plan and is capped by a flat built-up roof. The walls are concrete hollow tile. There are two roll-up garage doors. The fa�ade
terminates in a pent tile roof with rafter tails.
A one-and-a-half-story apartment (originally called a"rumpus room") is located immediately south of the garage; its primary
fa�ade faces east. It is rectangular in plan and is capped by a gabled roof with asphalt shingles and a skylight. The east fa�ade
is clad in stucco, features a greenhouse window and a French door with manufactured wood trim, and terminates in metal
coping. The south fa�ade is clad in composite wood siding. It features two sliding steel windows, one of which is flanked by
decorative wood shutters, and two sliding vinyl doors.
The one-story dressing room/storage shed is located near the southwest corner of the property and abuts a fence along the
south property line. It is rectangular in plan and is capped by a shed roof. It is clad in horizontal wood siding. The front (east)
farade features two paneled wood doors. The rear (west) fa�ade features two two-light, wood-sash windows and an opening
where a door was removed.
The house, garage, and apartment appear to be in good condition. The dressing room/storage shed appears to be in poor
condition.

The lands that would become the City of Bu; lingame were initially part of Rancho San Mateo, a Mexican-era land grant given by
Governor Pio Pico to Cayetano Arena in 1845. Over the next four decades, the lands passed through the hands of several
prominent San Francisco businessmen, including William Howard (1848) and William C. Ralston (1856). In 1866, Ralston sold over
1,000 acres to Anson Burlingame, the US Ministerto China. Following Burlingame's death in 1870, however, the land reverted to
Ralston, and eventually to Ralston's business partner, William Sharon. Very little formal development occurred during this period,
with most of the land used for dairy and stock farm operations.
In 1893, William Sharon's trustee, Francis G. Newlands, proposed the development of the Burlingame Country Club as an
exclusive semi-rustic destination for wealthy San Franciscans. A railroad depot was constructed in 1894, concurrent with small-
scale subdivisions in the vicinity of Burlingame Avenue. During this time, EI Camino Real acted as a de facto dividing line between
large country estates to the west and the small village of Burlingame to the east. The latter developed almost exclusively to serve
the needs of the wealthy estate owners. (See Continuation Sheet)

*Date December 2011 � Continuation ❑ Update
Burlingame began to develop in earnest with the arrival of an electric streetcar line between San Mateo and San Francisco in 1903.
However, the 1906 Earthquake had a far more dramatic impact on the area. Hundreds of San Franciscans who had lost their
homes began relocating to Burlingame, which flourished after the disaster with the construction of new residences and businesses.
Over the next two years, the village's population grew from 200 to 1,000. In 1908, Burlingame incorporated as a city, and in 1910
annexed the adjacent town of Easton to the north. The following year, the Burlingame Country Club area was also annexed to the
Ciry. By 1920, Burlingame's population had increased to 4,107.
The house at 1510 Cypress Avenue was constructed in the Burlingame Heights neighborhood, one of three subdivisions (including
Burlingame Park and Glenwood Park) created from lands that were formeriy part of the San Mateo Rancho. These were the
earliest residential developments in Burlingame and were subsequently followed by Burlingame Terrace, Burlingame Grove,
Buriingame Villa Park, and Easton. Buriingame Heights is a small, three block subdivision bounded by EI Camino Real to the north,
Cypress Avenue to the east, and Barroihet and Crescent Avenue to the south. The western boundary is formed by the eastern half
ofthe block bounded by EI Camino Real, Newlands, Crescent, and Howard avenues.
On May 18, 1905, the land that would become Burlingame Heights was purchased from ihe Occidental Land & Improvement
Company by Antoine Borel. Within a month, Borel had hired surveyor D. Brofield to subdivide the land and lay out a street grid, and
the resulting subdivision map was field with the San Mateo County Recorder's Office on June 3, 1905. Sanbom Map Company fire
insurance maps indicate that within the first five years of its creation, Burlingame Heights had begun to develop as a residential
area primarily composed of small cottages. At this time, approximately 25 percent of the lots had been developed, many with
houses featuring Craftsman style designs. By 1921, the neighborhood was approximately 50 percent developed, although the
western half of Cypress Avenue where 1510 Cypress Street is located included only one residence addressed as 1528 Cypress
Avenue (e�hant).
The town of Burlingame experienced a residential building boom beginning in the early 1920s, and the majoriry of the residences in
Burlingame Heights were completed over the following decade. During this same period, buildings designed with Spanish Colonial
Revival influences—most frequently evidenced by the use of red clay tile accents—became immensely popular in California. Many
examples were constructed in Buriingame, including 1510 Cypress Avenue, as well as 1500 Cypress Avenue, located immediately
to the north, and 1532 Cypress Avenue to the south. The neighborhood also grew denser with the construction of several
apartment buildings and flats, mostly concentrated on the north side of the block near EI Camino Real. Generally speaking, most of
the neighborhood appears to have been built out prior to World War II, as only two empty lots remain visible on the 1949 Sanborn
map.
The house at 1510 Cypress Avenue was constructed in 1928 per assessor's records. According to the original plumbing permit,
however, water was not turned on at the property until 13 May 1929. According to the permit, the owner was A. (Anton) Metten.
Electrical work was contracted to the Mausser Electric Company. The builder is listed as Thomas J. Broderick. According to the
1920 and 1930 censuses, Thomas J. Broderick lived at 1528 Cypress Avenue in Burlingame.
Anton Metten (1859-1932) was bom in Germany. Census and voter registration records indicate that Metten lived in San Francisco
at least from 1882 through 1924 and worked as a tanner. The 1930 census shows him as retired and living at 1510 Cypress
Avenue in Burlingame with wife Apollonia, son Leo, daughter Caroline Ostrofe, son-in-law Victor Ostrofe, and two grandsons.
The chain of title for the house could not be followed in its entirety. However, known owners of the property and their date of
purchase include:
Anton Metten (1928)
Heroatus Volney "Rotus" Harvey (ca. 1939)

Additions 8� Alteratior.s
An appraisal report from the San Mateo Counry Assessor's Office dated 13 March 1956 notes that a 15' x 31' "rumpus room" was
added to the south side of the garage in 1947. A 14' x 28' swimming pool was also installed that same year. Also noted is the
addition of a"roofed porch" along the south side of the house in 1949. The report further states that a 21' x 7' dressing room
located west of the swimming pool was first noted during this appraisal. Subsequent notes in the "remarks" section of the appraisal
indicate that another roofed patio (the sunroom) was added directly adjacent to the roofed porch in 1958.
In 1977, a permit application to legalize the "rumpus room" room attached to the garage as a mother-in-law apartment was
approved by the Burlingame City Council. According to newspaper articles, the building had been purchased in 1975 by Mrs.
Naomi Azzaria, who converted the house into a nursing home. This conversion was accompanied by the installation of a new stair
and doorway, widened steps, and an update of the electrical service.
Additions and alterations since that time have mostly been minor, including a domestic solar hot water system (1985), the
installation of a fence (1987), and replacement of the roof, which included replacing the red clay tiles (1994).
Evaluation (Significance):
The house at 1510 Cypress Avenue is not currently listed in the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) or the
Califomia Register of Historical Resources (California Register). The building does not appear in the California Historical
Resources Information System (CHRIS), indicating that no record of previous survey or evaluation is on file with the California
Office of Historic Preservation (OHP). The City of Burlingame does not currently have a register of historic properties, and therefore
the property is not listed locally.
Constructed in 1928, the house at 1510 Cypress Avenue does not appear to be individually eligible for listing in the National or
Califomia Registers under Criterion A/1 (Events) for its association with events that have made a significant contribution to the
broad patterns of local or regional history, or the cultural heritage of California or the United States. The house does convey
contextual significance as a single-family residence associated with the development of Burlingame Heights, but it is not among the
oldest homes in the neighborhood, nor does it appear influential in the development of the neighborhood. Rather, it appears to be
one of many residences constructed during the 1920s-1930s building boom in this area, and is not individually significant within this
historic context. Therefore, the property does not appear to be individually eligible for listing under Criterion A/1.
The house at 1510 Cypress Avenue does not appear to be individually eligible for listing in the National or California Registers
under Criterion B/2 (Persons). Research has not revealed any association with people significant in local, state or national history.
The house's original owner was a retired tanner, and subsequent long-term occupants have included an accountant and a nursing
home operator. Perhaps the most prominent resident was Heroatus Volney "Rotus" Harvey, who lived in the house at the time the
pool, dressing room, covered porch, and "rumpus" room were added to the property. Rotus, along with his brother Rodda W.
Harvey owned or managed several companies, including the Harvey Amusement Company, Harvey Construction Company,
Program Printing Company, and Westland Theaters. The two were in business from the 1920s through at least the 1960s and
constructed, owned, or operated theaters in numerous locations throughout California and the West. These included the Manor
and Palm Theaters in San Mateo, the Santa Clara Theater, the Laurel Theater in San Carlos, and several theaters in Stockton. By

1950, Rotus Harvey served as chairman of the board of the Pacific Coast Conference of Independent Theater Owners, as well as
president of the Independent Theater Owners of Northern California. During this period, he is consistently associated in city
directories with an office located at 291 Golden Gate Avenue in San Francisco. A 1962 article in the Lodi News Sentinel states that
the Harvey Brothers were natives of San F�ancisco, and described Rodda Harvey as having "the distinction of having built more
movie theaters than anyone else in the world."
Rotus Harvey does not appear to have been the subject of any scholarly research, nor are any files available for him at the
Burlingame Historical Society or San Mateo County Historical Society. While Harvey was obviously a well-known figure within the
community of independent theater operators, it appears that his brother Rodda was more influential in the development of movie
houses. Thus, Rotus Harvey does not appear to qualify as a person important to history.
The house at 1510 Cypress Avenue does not appear to be individually eligible for listing in the National or California Registers
under Criterion C/3 (Architecture) as a building that embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of
construction. The building displays Spanish Colonial Revival architectural features, but it is not a distinctively strong or prominent
example of the style. Rather, the building employs relatively modest design flourishes and does not appear to be an influential or
noteworthy example of residential construction in the neighborhood. The architect is unknown, and the builder is not currently
recognized as a master. Therefore, the property is not individually significant for its architectural merit and does not appear eligible
for listing in under Criterion C/3.
This property was not assessed for its potential to yield information important in prehistory or history, per Nationai Register and
Califomia Register Criterion D/4 (Information Potential). This Criterion is typically reserved for archeological resources. The
analysis of the house at 1510 Cypress Avenue for eligibility under California Register Criterion 4(Information Potential) is beyond
the scope of this report.
Evaluation (Inteqritvl:
The house at 1510 Cypress Avenue retains integrity of location and setting. It is situated on its original lot, and the surrounding
Buriingame Heights neighborhood remains a residential area characterized by single-family houses. The property has experienced
several modifications since its construction, including the addition of a swimming pool, dressing room and "rumpus room," as well
as the enclosure/addition of two porches. These changes are all concentrated at the rear or side of the house, however, and are
not visible from the street. Thus, the house is able to convey its original character and retains overall integrity of design, materials,
workmanship and feeling. Integrity of association was mildly affected when the house was briefly converted into a nursing home,
but its use as a single-family home has predominated throughout its history. Overall, the house at 1510 Cypress Avenue is able to
convey its essential historic character as an early twentieth-century residence and therefore retains historic integrity.
Conclusion
1510 Cypress Avenue does not appear to be individually eligible for listing in the National or California Registers under any criteria.
The Califomia Historical Resource Status Code (CHRSC) of "6Z" has been assigned to 1510 Cypress Avenue, meaning that it
was "found ineligible for National Register, Califomia Register or Local designation through survey evaluation." This designation is
based on the property's lack of significance under the California Register eligibility criteria.
This conclusion does not address whether the building would qualify as a contributor to a potential historic district. A cursory
inspection of the surrounding area reveals a high concentration of eariy twentieth century residences that warrant further study.
Additional research and evaluation of Burlingame Heights as a whole would need to be done to verify the neighborhood's eligibility
as a historic district.
