Narratives and Assessment Summaries
First Murphy HouseThe First Murphy House was built on Carmel Point in 1902, by MichaelJ. Murphy. It was the first of hundreds of cottages and noteworthy
structures designed and built by Mr. Murphy, whose prolific efforts hadan early and important influence on the character and charm of theVillage of Carmel.
In the early 1920s, the house was moved off of the point and remodeledfor the first time. It was subsequently remodeled numerous times toaccommodate a variety of owners and inhabitants, including the GirlScouts of Americaand theAudubon Society.
In 1990, to save the house from demolition, the First Murphy HouseCommittee, formed under the auspices of the Carmel Heritage Society,arranged to move the House to City-owned lots at the corner of Lincoln
Street and 6th
, where it stands today as an integral part of First MurphyPark.
At the Lincoln Street location, the house received a new foundation andwas substantially remodeled, including new fire sprinkler and fire alarmsystems, ADA upgrades, electrical, insulation, fire-rated cedar shakeroofing and a heating system.
The First Murphy House is now owned by the City of Carmel-by-the-Sea. It is maintained by the Carmel Heritage Society who uses it, in part,to house an Arts and Crafts Reference Library with the stated goal, toprovide information on the Arts and Crafts Movement for localdesigners, architects, contractors, planners and homeowners of our area.The Reference Library is open Wednesday through Saturday, from noonto 3:00PM. Additionally, the house, with its modest kitchen, is availablefor rent and can accommodate 30 to 40 people standing or 20 seated.
Observations and Recommendations
The First Murphy House is in good condition and only requiresmaintenance typical of a small, wooden building. The house and theaccompanying park provide a pleasant respite and unassumingintroduction to Carmels history. Its size andnature are a good fit for its
current uses and there are no obvious reasons to alter the house or itsuse.

Forest TheaterThe Forest Theater was one of the first outdoor amphitheaters west ofthe Mississippi River. It was conceived and created by a group of artistsled by actor/producer, Herbert Heron and poet Mary Austin. In 1910,Heron convinced developer Frank Devendorf to donate the land onMountain Avenue between Santa Rita and Guadalupe Streets, for anopen air theater and the Forest Theater Society was formed.
In 1937, to meet eligibility for federal funding, the Forest Theater Societydeeded the property to the City of Carmel-by-the-Sea, and in 1939, aWPA project began, which resulted in the basic structures and featuresthat still define the Forest Theater. In 1949, the Forest Theater Guildwas created, and a small indoor theater was built in the concrete supportbuilding below the amphitheaters stage.
During the 1960s, as Herbert Herons involvement and the ForestTheater Guild itself came to an end, the facility was largely abandoned
and in serious disrepair. During this period, the City considered variousoptions, including selling the property, but no significant action wastaken. In 1968, the Childrens Experimental Theater leased the indoor
theater and brought a consistent theatrical presence back to the site. Theoutdoor stage stayed dark until 1972, when a newly formed ForestTheater Guild started staging musicals. The Pacific Repertory Theaterbegan productions in 1984, and the Guild added a film series in 1997.
Freestanding public restrooms and a ticket booth were added in 1975and, in 2002, a concession booth from the Sunset Center was movedonsite.
Currently, the City leases the theater to The Forest Theater Guild, thePacific Repertory Theater and the Childrens Experimental Theater, nowknown as SoDA (School of Dramatic Arts). In 2000, the Forest TheaterFoundation was formed to represent the three resident user groups as anon-profit organization, dedicated to the preservation and enhancementof Carmel's unique Forest Theater and its traditional programs.
Observations and Recommendations
The WPA-era structures and site improvements are old, in disrepair, donot meet current codes and lack many of features of a modern theaterfacility. Nonetheless, the site is steeped in and radiates an incrediblyunique history that cannot be relocated or reproduced.
Over the years, a variety of reports and studies have offered differing
solutions to the one thing that is not in dispute: if the Forest Theater is tobe saved, significant renovation of all aspects of the site and structures isrequired. In April 2009, Carmels City Council recommended renovationof the theater. As of the date of this report, City staff is consideringhiring an architect to prepare a master plan for renovations and upgradesof the facility and grounds.

Vista LobosThe Vista Lobos building was built in 1952, by J.O. Handley as storagefor Carmel Builders Supply. The building was acquired by the City in1987 and previously housed the Citys Fire Department. Currently itserves multiple civic and public uses.
The three-level building fronts Junipero Street and sits on the westernedge of a relatively large lot. The majority of the lot is used for free City
parking, but it also includes pedestrian-scaled areas with benches andbicycle racks and an observation deck that offers spectacular views ofPoint Lobos.
Eight storage bays on the street level are utilized by a variety of civicrelated entities, including the Forest Theater, Red Cross, FireDepartment, Public Services Department and Facilities Maintenance.One story up, accessed through the parking lot, the buildings main levelis comprised of an office that houses the Citys IT division, a large
multipurpose recreation room with a kitchen and unisex restroom and apair of vehicle storage bays. A small third floor attic area, in whichbuilding and planning files and plan sets are stored, is accessed from the
main level via a dedicated interior stairwell.The City makes the recreation room available for short-term public useby groups and individuals for no fee if the user is sponsored by the City.The space is currently leased by the Carmel Adult School for art classesduring the day and Alcoholics Anonymous uses it throughout the weekfor morning meetings.
Observations and Recommendations
The building is generally in good condition, requiring only typicalongoing maintenance with one obvious caveat being the buildings old,
relatively small, electrical service. Given the IT divisions presence in thebuilding and the resulting importance of a reliable electrical service,replacement of the service is already part of the Citys CIP planning. Abackup generator is worth considering.
The interior spaces of the Vista Lobos building could be re-purposed,but there is no obvious compelling advantage to doing so and theexisting spaces and uses satisfy beneficial public and operational needs.The larger latent value of the Vista Lobos facility lies in the associatedproperty and its potential as the site of future civic projects. Anyevaluation of options to replace the existing PD, PWD and/or City Hall
facilities should include consideration of the Vista Lobos property.

Sunset Performing Arts Center
The Sunset Performing Arts Center is comprised of a large concreteblock- and wood-framed auditorium and several smaller associatedcottages. It occupies two city blocks, between San Carlos and MissionStreets and 8thand 9thAvenues. The original buildings were built in 1925,by M.J. Murphy, as the Sunset Schoolhouse. In 1931, a 700+ seat, gothic-style auditorium was added, which quickly found a second use as anincreasing popular performing arts venue for the community at large. In
1964, the City acquired the school and renamed it the Sunset Theater. TheCity designated the building and site as an historic property in 2001, andit was recorded in the Historical Resources Inventoryin 2003.
The building underwent a major renovation in 2003, and the SunsetCultural Center (SCC), a 501(3)c, non-profit corporation was formed tolease and manage the facility, according to their mission statement, toserve as a multipurpose gathering place that enriches, educates, inspiresand entertains Monterey County residents and visitors by presenting
performances, visual arts, educational programs and hosting public andprivate events.
True to their mission, the Center facilitates staging of a diverse array of
high-quality performances, presentations and events, and it is home tooffices of a number of local arts- and culture-related organizations.
The City retains ownership of the Sunset Center and, per the leaseagreement with SCC, is responsible at its sole cost for the structuralintegrity of the exterior walls and roofs and the seismic soundness of thefacilitys buildings. SCC is responsible for all other maintenance andoperational costs.
Observations and Recommendations
The Sunset Center provides and an important and valuable, civic and
cultural function. The main building is specifically suited for its currentuse, and there is no apparent reason to consider any significant change.
The building shells are generally in good condition, but there areunresolved leaks in the main building roof and water/dry rot issues in atleast one of the cottages. A proactive, rolling, multi-year maintenance andimprovement program should be established to protect the buildingshells from water, rot and pest damage, to isolate and fix existing roofleaks, and to address any identifiable structural deficiencies in thecottages.
Recommend repair of all roof leaks.
CIP projects identified for Cottages 16 & 17 drainage, planter bedretaining wall repair, and new iron railing at north parking lot.
Recommend awning over concessions area to create outdoordining in front of auditorium lobby.
Recommend ADA accessibility upgrades to Pottery Studio andCarpenter Hall.

Flanders MansionFlanders Mansion is a two-story, concrete block and wood framedprivate residence located on the southeast section of Carmel at 25800Hatton Road. The structure is on a sloping, tree-covered siteoverlooking Carmel Valley to the southeast, Carmel Mission and Pointlobos to the southwest.
The mansion was built in 1924, by Paul and Grace Flanders, with thepotential to be a seven-bedroom home. In the 1972, the City acquiredthe Flanders Estate, which comprised 14.9 acres. The building or site isnot designated as a historical property on the City of Carmel-by-the-SeaHistorical Resources Inventory. However; the building has uniquecharacter and distinct historical significance and is listed on the NationalRegister of Historic Places (entered in 1989). The historical significanceunder the National Register Eligibility Criteria is that it is the work of
prominent San Francisco Architect, Henry Higby Gutterson and employsan innovative construction method.
The property, whichwas commonly known as Paul Flanders
Outlands, was one of the earliest architect-designed residences inCarmel-by-the-Sea and is the only known example of Guttersons workin the Monterey Bay region. The building, which was constructed by FredRuhl (who was also responsible for constructing Pebble Beach Lodgeand other significant buildings in the community), is considered a TudorRevival manor house.
The home is surrounded by Mission Trails Park, developed by the City in1976, after the purchase of thirty-five acres of unspoiled nativevegetation. The park entrances are off of Mountain View Avenue andCrespi and Junipero Rio Road, with the mansion located centrally.
Mission Trails Park is heavily covered with pines that form a beautifulwooded area and includes an Arboretum with native plants, ToyonGrove, Willow Trail Tunnel, Scenic Vista, Mission Vista, with wildpoppies, wild flowers, and a redwood grove and trails traversing everyarea of the park. The archaeological report, completed in 1987, states thearea does not contain significant archaeological resources, however, thewesterly portion of the property forms a natural drainage channel thatruns from the north to the Carmel River. The lower aspect of the site isbelieved to be historical in nature as it is presumed to be a portion of theformer Junipero Serra Trail, between the Carmel Mission and the San
Carlos Church in Monterey. Some of the native species of animal lifefound on the property include the protected red legged frog, tigersalamander and peregrine falcon.
The front of the home faces north with a wraparound driveway off ofHatton Road. The rear has a gently sloping area boasting of views of theocean, towards the Carmel Mission. The lower, main level of themansion is approximately 2,884 square feet and has an attached two-cargarage with a staircase leading to a basement that includes a

mechanical room and storage. The main floor level has an entryway,kitchen, pantry, butlers pantry, laundry, breakfast nook, powder room,bathroom, living room/ballroom, rear patio, and three bedrooms.
The second floor is approximately 2,499 square feet with a living room,four bedrooms, three bathrooms and an unfinished attic area. Theunfinished attic area has the potential to become an additional bedroomsuite or living room.
The living room/ballroom on the main level has a beautiful marblefireplace and the room has an occupant load of 105, allowing for50 seated or 105 standing. The City has utilized the mansion for variouscommunity events, including car shows, concerts, parties, designershowcases and a visit by the Dalai Lama. The mansion was used as aresidence from 1975-1977.
In 1985, Flanders Mansion was deemed structurally inadequate forcompliance with current seismic code requirements. The main challengesare the ungrouted concrete block walls and lack of reinforcing steel in thefootings. ADA accessibility upgrades and various other code complianceupgrades were also needed. The basement area currently has storm waterintrusion due to surface drainage issues at existing downspouts on theeast wall. The building is currently not used, due to unfinished plumbingand electrical upgrades, non-conformance with current ADA accessibilitycodes, and lack of upkeep and maintenance.
The kitchen underwent a full remodel in 2005 and provided for acommercial gas stove, ovens, new dishwasher, new sink, new cabinets,and upgraded counters.
Observations and Recommendations
Past suggestions include leasing or selling the residence for use as a bedand breakfast, childrens home, or changing the zoning from R-1 to CZone, to allow for conference center, office use or a museum.
Harris & Associates & City staff toured mansion on October 30, 2013.City of Carmel-by-the-Sea provided Harris & Associates staff withvarious reports about the mansion. Recommendations include:
Perform a termite and pest control inspection during FY2014/2015.
Address the storm runoff that enters the basement area. Fromsite inspection on 10/30/2013, this is apparently caused by theeast wall downspouts that discharge in the direction of an exteriorstairway.
Address ADA compliance issues, while protecting the buildingshistorical character.
If the building isnt leased in the near future and the City decidesto sell, an evaluation of the mechanical, electrical, and plumbingsystems for possible upgrades.

City HallCity of Carmel-by-the-Seas City Hall, located on the east side of MonteVerde Street, between Ocean Avenue and Seventh Avenue, started life asthe All Saintes Episcopal Church. It was designed by San Franciscoarchitect Albert Cauldwell. Built in 1913 by M.J. Murphy, remodeling in1917, 1921 and 1928 by M.J. Murphy added a bell tower, parish hall andvestibule. The City purchased the building and two adjacent vacant lotsfor its City Hall in 1946.
The building was placed on the Citys Historic Resources Inventory in2001, and it was listed on the California Register of Historical Resourcesin 2002, noted for its historical significance as a seat and center ofpolitical activity since 1946, when the Planning Commission beganfunctioning from the building.
The main level houses the Community Planning Building, AdministrativeServices, and City Administrator Department and the Citys CouncilChambers are arrayed around an accessible lobby with a single unisex
restroom. On the lower, partially subterranean, garden level, there is aconference room, employee kitchen, TV control room, mens andwomens restrooms, showers, and a mechanical room. Both levels areADA accessible from the street, but a set of stairs is the only way tomove between the levels inside the building.
The facility has undergone numerous remodels, additions and seismicupgrades over the years in attempts to better reflect civic use and to keepup with the Citys growing responsibilities and staffing. Nonetheless,there is insufficient space to efficiently accommodate the current staffand all records associated with their departments and, as a result, the Cityretains offsite storage for some departmental files. Additionally, CouncilChambers, located in the portion of the building that was originally achurch, are quaint but rather small and dont afford much in the way of
overflow accommodations.The building has also undergone various mechanical, electrical andplumbing system upgrades, but continues to experience electrical powerinadequacies, and the buildings heating is a mishmash of overlappingsystems and controls.
Observations and Recommendations
Harris & Associates and City staff toured the facility on October 23,2013.
The building is a beautiful and historic asset, which deserves its place on
the Citys list of civic facilities. It appears to be good condition and aproactive, rolling multi-year maintenance program aimed at protectingthe building shell from water, rot and pest damage should ensure itremains so.
If the building continues in its current use and staff occupancy, theelectrical and heating systems and ADA compliance should be evaluatedby the appropriate design professionals and their recommendationsconsidered for implementation.

The larger question, worthy of discussion, is if some or all of the Citysadministrative departments would be better housed in a larger, moremodern facility and part or all of City Hall repurposed. Thisconversation could be combined with a review of the PD and PWDfacilities, which are each logical candidates for major renovation and ornew facilities.

Police DepartmentThe City of Carmel Police Department occupies the north end of asprawling. multileveled concrete-and wood-framed building, located onthe southeast corner of Junipero and Fourth Avenues. Portions of thebuilding also house the Citys Public Work Department. The buildingwas designed by Architect Burde, Shaw & Associates, in collaborationwith consulting structural engineers Steven H. Sassoon & Associates, andit was built in 1966.
The Police Departments portion of the building houses a wide array ofdiverse functions. In addition to offices, record storage and standardstaff support spaces, it includes Booking, Fingerprinting and HoldingRooms, Dispatch, Animal Control, Dog Kennels, an EmergencyOperations Center (EOC), an indoor shooting range and the Citys mainteledata/911 server room. The department completely fills all availablespace on its two, relatively small floorlevels, which are onlyinterconnected by a residential-scale interior stairwell.
Police Departments and EOCs are, by law, defined as Essential Servicesand, as such, the buildings that house them are subject to stringentbuilding code obligations and, in particular, rigorous structuralrequirements. Portions of the existing structure, under and adjacent tothe Police Departments portion of the building, are visibly damaged anddeteriorating. Water infiltration into the lower portions of the building isrampant when it rains, accelerating structural damage and posing aconstant threat to the buildings electrical service.
Additionally, very little of the building is truly ADA compliant. Reachingthe departments front doors and public lobby requires climbing twoflights of stairs. Although some makeshift access accommodations are inplace, they are far from ideal and do not set a good precedent.
Observations and Recommendations
The building has served its purpose for over fifty years, but it has notaged well. It has little to no historic importance, shows signs ofstructural decline, has significant water infiltration problems, is reliant onincreasing outdated mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems, and itdoes not meet basic applicable codes.
Near-term fixes for the water problems may be possible, but they will notaddress other deficiencies: a more comprehensive approach is warrantedand recommended. Given the time that it will take to plan and executeany meaningful solution, studying the optionsthe most likely beingeither extensive renovation, building replacement or departmentrelocationand selecting an approach should be a City priority.
Recommend repair of all roofs and roof leaks for 2- separateroofing systems per CIP projects identified for FY '12-'13 and'13-'14.Repaint throughout.
Replace FAU system.

Public Services Building & Corp Yard
The City of Carmel-by-the-Sea Public Services Department occupiesthe southern two-thirds of a sprawling, multileveled concrete- andwood-framed building, located on the southeast corner of Juniperoand Fourth Avenues. The northern end of the building is threestories tall, and the Police Department occupies the top two floors.The building was designed by Architect Burde, Shaw & Associates, incollaboration with consulting structural engineers Steven H.Sassoon & Associates, and it was built in 1966.
The lowest level of the building, including the northern portionunder the Police Department, is occupied by the Public ServicesDepartment. The majority of this level is dedicated to a vehiclestorage and maintenance garage, open to, and accessed from, thedepartments service and storage yard, which in turn is accessed fromTorres Street. At street level, attached to and a half floor above, arethe Director of Public Services, Service Staff and City MaintenanceCrew Offices. A separate, but attached, office building accessible off
of Junipero Avenue, houses the Community Service, Forrester, andPublic Service Department staff. A fueling station, painting booth,the buildings emergency generator, material storage and a recycledwater treatment station are all accessed via the service yard
Directly above and creating the roof of the garage is an expansiverooftop plaza, with the front doors of the Police department at thenorthern end and spectacular views to the south. Throughout theyears, the plaza has been used for various civic and cultural events.At the time the building was designed, a second phase ofconstruction was contemplated, which would have added anotherbuilding story with the plaza as its floor. The additional constructionwas not pursued and, unfortunately, the plaza has not functioned wellas a roof.
When raining, water infiltration into the DPSs lower level, throughand around the perimeter of the roof plaza, is extensive, causingsections of the structures reinforcing steel to corrode and visiblyseparate from the surrounding concrete. It poses a constant threat tothe buildings electrical service, some of which has had to beshimmed off the wall to avoid filling with water.
Additionally, significant aspects of the building are not ADAcompliant. For example, the only direct access between the garageand street-level offices is a set stairs, and the employee restroomfixtures and stalls do not meet accessibility standards.
Observations and Recommendations
The building has served its purpose for over fifty years, but has notaged well. It has little to no historic importance, shows signs ofstructural decline, has significant water infiltration problems, is relianton increasing outdated mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems,and it does not meet basic applicable codes.
