AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY DATE: June 3, 2008
FORT COLLINS CITY COUNCIL STAFF: Karen McWilliams
SUBJECT
First Reading of Ordinance No. 068, 2008, Designating the Myers House, 902 Mathews Street, as
a Fort Collins Landmark Pursuant to Chapter 14 of the City Code.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading.
At a public hearing held on March 13, 2008, the Landmark Preservation Commission voted
unanimously to recommend designation of this property as a landmark for its significance to Fort
Collins as a very nice example of the Bungalow variation of the Craftsman architectural style.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The owners of the property, Dale and Mary Eggleston, are initiating this request for Fort Collins
Landmark designation for the property. The Myers House qualifies for individual Landmark
designation under Landmark Standard(3). The building on the property embodies many distinctive
characteristics of the Bungalow variation ofthe Craftsman architectural style popular during the early
twentieth century. The large partially enclosed front porch, front gabled roof,wide eaves,and large
chimney exemplify this design and make the Myers House a contributing element of the Laurel
National Register District that is worthy of Landmark Designation.
BACKGROUND
Architecture
Built in 1924 by Chas G. Myers, the property at 902 Mathews continues to embody the
characteristics of a Craftsman Bungalow despite some modifications. Immediately following the
house's construction, a matching garage was added to the property in 1925. This addition was
followed in 1938 with a basement stairway entry on the right side of the house that was covered with
a shed awning. Building permit records indicate that the garage was enlarged two years later and
photographic evidence from the Tax Assessor's Office shows that it was torn down sometime
between 1948 and 1969. In the late 1990s, Egress Windows that do not visibly interfere with the
structure's historical integrity were added to the rear of the house. The front porch was also
remodeled during this time: the stucco was replaced with siding, and a gate and several supporting
June 3, 2008 -2- Item No. 21
features were added to the entry. Despite these changes to the property,the Myers House continues
to maintain its historical integrity as a Bungalow variation of the Craftsman architectural style.
History
Chas and his wife Mary lived in their home from the time of its construction until at least 1934. City
directories indicate that the property was eventually sold to Roy and Nellie Darling who owned the
house from at least 1948 until 1959. The home has since been predominantly occupied by renters.
Dale and Mary Eggleston,the current owners seeking Landmark Designation,purchased the Myers
House in 1972.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
(Please include city directory research and/or a title search if the property is important for

The first owners of this home were Chas and Mary Myers (Also spelled Meyers). Chas
worked as a building contractor. City directories show that the Myers lived in the home until
at least 1934, however, it is possible that they could have lived there longer. However, city
directories indicate that the home was eventually sold to Roy and Nellie Darling. Records
show that the Darlings owned the home from at least 1948 until 1959. From this point on it
is unclear who owned the home as it was mostly occupied by renters. In 1972 the house
was sold to Dale and Mary Eggleston, the current owners seeking Landmark Designation.

ARCHITECTURAL INFORMATION
Construction Date: 1922
ArchitecttBuilder: UNKNOWN
Building Materials: Concrete foundation, wood framed.
Architectural Style: Craftsman Bungalow
Description: (Please include any special features of the property/surroundings, as well as dates
and descriptions of any additions or alterations to the buildings or structures.)
The origins of the Craftsman Bungalow can be traced to the American and English
Arts and Crafts Movements of the 1880s and 1890s. While England was embracing
this new modest and practical building type, Americans also began to adopt the
building type and the principles behind it. The Arts and Crafts movement was an
explicit attack on the blatant materialism of the Victorian era. The movement
emphasized modest, efficient buildings constructed of local materials made to blend
relatively seamlessly with their surroundings. The Craftsman Bungalow style was
derivative of this movement. Bungalows made their first appearance in the United
States on the eastern seacoast. Initially they were popular as inexpensive summer
cottages. However, it was not long before this building form found a home on the west
coast; principally Southern California.
American Arts and Crafts as expressed in the Bungalow form and the Craftsman
style eventually spread throughout the U.S. during the first three decades of the
twentieth century. The most prominent advocate for this movement in America was
Gustav Stickley (1858-1942). Stickley was an architect and furniture designer as well
as the publisher of a monthly magazine called The Craftsman. Stickley's ideas would
become the guidelines for American Bungalows of all forms including the Craftsman
style. The buildings were to be modest in size and scale, holding true to the earlier
Arts and Crafts notion of Humanism versus blatant materialism. Typically the buildings
were to be wood framed and one to one-and-a-half-stories tall. However, some
Craftsman Bungalows were originally constructed as two stories. The second story, or
half story, was usually contained directly under the roof which maximized living space
but left little or no attic space. The buildings were to emphasize their horizontal
elements and remain grounded with low pitched roofs and wide rectangular or square
footprints. Wide eaves with exposed rafter tails and deep roof overhangs further
contributed to the illusion of a wide, grounded, and horizontal building. More often
then not a large front porch was included. Typically the exterior walls and gable ends
were composed of different materials to add contrast and visually break up the
otherwise simple structure. The most commonly used materials for this purpose were
stucco, horizontal lap siding, or shingles. As a further holdover from the early Arts and
Crafts movement, Craftsman buildings were to be composed of regional materials
matching the colors and tones of the surrounding environment. With all or most of
these features included, the final result was to be a building which "stressed comfort
and utility...and a lack of pretension."(Colorado's Historic Architecture, pg 40)
Just as the rest of the country chose to embrace this form and style, Fort Collins
was no exception and the city boasts many buildings of this type. The Craftsman
Bungalow located at 902 Mathews holds true to many of Stickely's above mentioned
criteria. Its moderately pitched roof, wide eaves and overhangs, and exposed rafter
tails serve as excellent intact examples of Craftsman Bungalow architecture as derived
from the Arts and Crafts Movement. The building's modest one-story height and
rectangular, grounded nature, combined with its use of dark browns and whites, tie the
building to the earth and allow it to blend with the surrounding landscape. As Stickley
Revised 09-2004 Page 3
explained, the Craftsman Bungalow is "a house reduced to its simplest form, which
never fails to harmonize with its surroundings because its low broad proportions and
absolute lack of ornament give it a character so natural and unaffected that it seems to
sing into a blend with any landscape." The modest home at 902 Mathews is just such
a building and should be formally recognized as historically significant. (Cigliano, 12)
This house is a single story with a rectangular floor plan, a front gabled roof, and is
covered with stucco. It displays a prominent brick chimney located on the north
elevation. Furthermore, it features a partially enclosed porch supported by square
columns and wide overhanging eaves with exposed rafter tails. Egress windows were
added to the basement in 1997. This alteration did not affect the historic integrity of
the building.

STAFF REPORT
REQUEST: Fort Collins Landmark Designation of 902 Matthews Street, Fort Collins, Colorado
STAFF CONTACT: Karen McWilliams, Historic Preservation Planner; Eric Saulnier, Historic

APPLICANTS: Dale and Mary Eggleston, Owners
BACKGROUND: Staff is pleased to present for your consideration the Myers House of 902
Matthews Street. The property has significance to Fort Collins under Landmark Preservation
Standard(3). The building on the property embodies many distinctive characteristics of the
Bungalow variation of the Craftsman architectural style popular during the early twentieth
century. The large partially enclosed front porch, front gabled roof, wide eaves, and large

RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approving the request for Landmark Designation
of the Myer House, under Standard(3) for its representation of the Bungalow variation of the
Craftsman architectural style and its contributing status to the Laurel School National Register
District.
