We are unfamiliar with the term. Willamette College and Willamette University are being used interchangeably when the correct title is Willamette University, if the school in Salem is the subject. Gross ground plan dimensions would be helpful. Has exterior color analysis of the house been made to establish the original treatment? When was it that the interior woodwork was painted white? Klamath County community is correctly spelled Merrill, page 8-2. The two-story, wood'frame, front-gabled Homestead house, a vernacular. form in the tradition of Queen Anne-style architecture, built for Central Point drygoods and grocery store owner E. C. Faber in 1910 standsat the northwest corner of Manzattita and Fifth Streets in the historic trading center on the Oregon and California Railroadalignment in the Rogue River Valley. of southern Oregon. The house is proposed for nomination under Criterion B in the area of commerce as the property most importantly associated with E. C. Faber, one of the leading merchants of Central Point, who occupied it with his family from the time of its construction to his death in 1946. Faber's. widow held the property until 1969, when it was sold after a fire which caused much damage to the rear .section and upstairs late in 1967. The building which had been the Faber and McDonald dry goods, grocery and shoe store was razed in 1970. This application is thoroughly documented with respect to the property's development. Faber entered into the picture in 1910. Thanks to close accounting of development in the Rogue Valley by local newspapers in the historic period, it has been possible to identify the contracting firm as Hathaway and Scott, a firm specializing, as per its advertisements, in "Modern Cottages and Bungalows." The application reports on the central heating plant, a wood furnace, original outbuildings, no longer standing, and it also reveals that the house was among the first in Central Point to be wired for electrical service at the time of construction. The existing garage, anon- historic construction of 1970, is counted anon-historic feature of the property. The two-story, gable roofed house, with its rectilinear ground plan measuring x feet, is oriented longitudinally on the lot, facing south onto Manzanita. There is a single pedimented cross gable on the east side elevation covering atwo-story dining room window bay having clipped corners at the ground story. The facade is organized symmetrically as two wide bays ~~ with jettied; shingle-clad gable peak and.full-width hip-roofed porch supported by Tuscan columes interspersed with sections of an unusual lattice-style railing. The front entry is offset to the westrof center. The exterior is clad with narrow lapped weatherboards and trimmed with plain boards for corner angles, frieze and watertable. There is no stickwork or fancy trim except for scrolled brackets supporting facade eaves and jetty and the east window bay sandwich ; brackets. The original roof cover was cedar shingles. The central brick chimney straddling the roof ridge originally had a corbelled cap. Fenestration is more or less regular, consisting typically of one- over-one double-hung windows framed with architrave molding. Across the rear elevation was a hip roofed attachment of about 1911, a double screened porch consisting of kitchen utility area on the lower level and a sleeping deck above. The interior is organized on a conventional side entry stairhall plan in the Arts and Crafts. Tradition. The front door has a large panel of oval beveled plate glass,. and the first landing of the stairhall has a fine window of diapered leaded glass. The front parlor is separated from the entry hall by a column screen composed of octagonal tapered Tuscan columns on a high podium supporting archway beam. The high base walls are decorated with inset panels. The"staircase newel postin the Craftsman vein is square in plan with a flat cap and inset panels matching those of the column screen podiums. Most of the rest of the interior finish work, now all painted, is standard, good quality millwork of the day. It is intact, including the dining room wainscot, French'doors and built-in cabinetry. Despite the damage sustained during the fire of 1967, the downstairs interior retains a high degree of integrity and some noteworthy features, trim elements and hardware. As a result of the fire, the house underwent atleration at the north, or rear section, which was modified aswhip-roofed single. story, attachment. The upper sleeping deck was removed. The kitchen was comprehensively remodeled. Upstairs rooms were so badly damaged they were all remodeled around the original west side circulation space. In 1992, the deteriorated replacement roof of 1970 was supplanted by a standing seam metal roof. The house also.:underwentsorne change:in its historic.period ofo~cupation by the Fabers. It was first remodeled when the back porch was enclosed at the. ground story as a living suite for Mr. Faber's mother in 1932.. During the wartime build-up in the 1940s, Faber converted the upstairs to an apartment since his sons were no longer at home and construction of the extensive Camp White cantonment area outlying Central Point created a demand for worker housing. After Faber's death in 1946, Mrs. Faber moved, and the house became a rental property exclusively. The wood furnace was converted to gas. The 1967 fire is believed to have originated as an electrical fire in the rear attachment. The house was sold in 1969 to Rodney Hall, who proceeded with improvements and code work, which included removal of the sleeping porch deck, removal of the upstairs kitchen, and removal of lath and plaster wall finish throughout the upstairs. The walls were insulated and sheetrocked by this previous owner. The damaged flooring was overlaid with carpet, and the roof was replaced with cedar shingles. Ultimately, in 1981, the property was acquired by its present owner, Dr. Gilmour, who ~~ cortlmenced his rehabilitation. The floors were refinished oroverlaid withhazdwood. The kitchen was remodeled: In 1992, all windows were replaced with wood framed double-glazed sash, the house was painted, and the deteriorated roof was replaced with sheet metal. A wood stove was added to the parlor. Dr. Gilmour's plans for the immediate future include seismic reinforcement of the foundation and removal of the rear attachment and construction of a new two-story family room addition along the lines of the eazliest configuration of c. 1911. The premise of this nomination is that the developer of the property contributed significantly to the life of the community during his period ofresidence and that the house is the place most importantly associated with him remaining in Central Point. Edward Charles Faber (1879-1946) was an Ohio native educated at Baldwin-Wallace College in Berea, Ohio[ He married Elizabeth Schell in 1906 and moved to Iowa, where he entered the grocery trade. Encouraged by a former Iowa friend, Chester McDonald, who :had preceeded them to Oregon, the Fabers removed to the Rogue Valley in southern Oregon in 1909. Faber & McDonald Mercantile was opened in Central Point in 1910. The store location changed a time or two. over the years. -Iii 1916, E. C. bought out McDonaid's interest in the store, and the erstwhile partner took over management of a market the pair had earlier opened in Merrill, in the Klamath Basin: It was at this time that Fabei's store moved to its final location in Central Point, a single story brick building with a 50-foot street frontage at the southwest corner of Pine and Fourth. The Fabers raised three children in the house on Manzanita, Everett, Donald and Frances. At the peak of his career in the 1920s and early 19306, we see E. C, Faber as a man of expanded business interests which included insurance and real estate sales.. He opened subsidiary graocery stores in the rural communities of Eagle Point and Butte Falls in leased buildings. As a measure of the consequences of hisenterprise, the store at Butte Falls-operated somewhat vitally as an informal cash bank for area loggers. 'In Central Point, Faber-set an example his notably public .spirited sotis would follow in promoting improvement of the city. He was a founderof the Central Point Mutual Telephone Company in the 19206. He campaigned unsuccessfully to have the city join the Medford Water System to end local dependence upon shallow wells. In the 19306, as his fortunes declined with the economy at the depth of the Depressions, and his health declined.alsp.: He nevertheless extended credit.liberally.to his customers who were in straitened circumstances. `In 1937; Faber signed over the grocery and feed business to his wo sons and a third partner and remodeled an adjoining building foramen's clothing and shoe store. Finally, in the fall of 1945, he sold the remaining shares of his business to his sons and retired. .~,. ,4'.; y: si.C (pity of Centrai Point EXHI~~T ttCt Punning Department a~ 4~ ~_ N X i1 ~, 96-`- Z __ i City of Centrnl Point- ~xxl~rT t,~tt , Planning Department . .
