DATE: April 28, 2010 RANCHO
TO: Chairman and Members of the Historic Preservation Commission CUCAMONGA
FROM: James R. Troyer, AICP, Planning Director
BY: Cathy Morris, Planning Specialist
SUBJECT: ETIWANDA DEPOT NATIONAL REGISTER DESIGNATION
GENERAL: Staff would like to announce the submission of the City's application requesting
designation to the National Register of Historic Places, the Pacific Electric Etiwanda Depot, to the
United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service.
BACKGROUND: The depot is located at 7089 Etiwanda Avenue in the center of what was a
thriving agricultural community. This single-story structure of poured concrete was built in 1914 as
part of the Pacific Electric Rail Line. The architecture is an excellent example of local Mission
Revival Style and was designed by Irving Gill, Architect.
The City is in the final stages of purchasing the depot structure and approximately one-half acre of
the 4-acre parcel from San Bernardino Associated Governments (SANBAG). The depot site is
• adjacent to our newly completed, successful Rails to Trails project and is being developed as a
regional trailhead to include restrooms, parking, and picnic facilities, as well as an interactive train
museum for historical displays. The museum would acknowledge the importance of the Pacific
Electric Rail system in the development of Southern California.
The depot has already been designated a Local Landmark and we are now submitting our
application for it to be added to the National Register to the United States Department of the
Interior, National Park Service.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Historic Preservation Commission receive the
staff report and file for future reference.
Respectfully submitted,
