We have compiled the field notes from the fieldwork into a table that helps to clarify the status of individual resources that we looked at. Of the 111 listings on the Inventory, two sites had been previously identified as "Former Historic Site(s)." These two properties are #19 (Cherrymount) and #73 (Professor Fred Smith Residence). Additional "missing" resources (or likely missing resources) were identified, which we have identified as "not extant." These include: #23 (Hayfield Caretaker /Garage Buildings #24 (Crowell House) #26 (Reynolds Ranch) #29 (Saco Herb Gardens) #40 (Scanavino Residence) #43 (Bellicitti Ranch and House) #60 (Winslow House) #67 (Sterne - Andres House) #70 (Jose Moya Del Pino Mosaic) #78 (Dr. Hogg Residence) #81 (J. C. Cunningham House) #87 (Nelson Gardens) #104 (St. John's Episcopal Church) We could not locate #63 (Paul Masson Lodge), but are aware that is may be extant and need assistance locating it. We have also identified additional resources that have various degrees of alteration. The level of integrity of these resources will be discussed further within the preparation of DPR523 forms for the properties. We look forward to meeting with you and the Heritage Preservation Commission to review these findings. www.archivesandarchitecture.com HERITAGE RESOURCES INVENTORY UPDATE Status of field work / August 10, 2009 1 of 8 APN Seq DESIGNATION RESOURCE NAME ADDRESS STATUS IN FIELD 393 -32 -036 1 HP -88 -01 Johnson -Kerr House 13361 Argonne Dr. Altered prior to listing (faces historic rear yard) 397 -20 -091 2 HP -88 -01 Rancho Bella Vista 20021 Bella Vista Extant - barely visible 503 -24 -058 3 HP -88 -01 Kerr Building/Hogg Building 14413 -14415 Big Basin Way Extant - heavily altered prior to listing 503 -24 -059 4 HP -88 -01 HP -18 Saratoga Bank Building 14421 Big Basin Way Extant (designated landmark) 5 HP -88 -01 Hutchinson Building 14495 Big Basin Way Extant, heavily altered prior to listing 503 -24 -070 6 HP -88 -01 Cloud -Smith Building 14501 -14503 Big Basin Way Extant 517 -09 -068 7 HP -88 -01 J.E.
