Page 2 Mr. Robert Frankeberger October 27,2010 1997 or later (attachment 3). These buildings are not yet 50 years old, nor do they meet the exceptional significance criteria ofthe National Register. One structure is a one-story brick building ("office") (attachment 4). The construction date is unknown, but it appears to date from the 1940s as an office (1941 Sanborn Map) associated with a military housing project previously located on the site. GSA has determined that the "office" is not significant under any ofthe National Register criteria. Its primary association is with the military housing development that occupied the site from the I940s through the 1980s or 1990s, however all the other structures associated with this housing development are gone, leaving the "office" out ofcontext. The "office" is not associated with the Ajo Townsite Historic District either, which draws its significance as a socially responsible, planned company town, significant for its City Beautiful inspired town site plan as well as architect-designed and vernacular buildings formerly owned by the company. The architecture ofthe "office" is not representative ofany ofthe styles referenced in the Ajo Townsite nomination form. The "office" is currently unused, appears to have been abandoned for several decades, and suffers so much from a loss of integrity ofdesign, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling and association, that further study on whether it meets eligibility criteria is unwarranted. A search ofthe archaeological records retained at the Arizona State Museum (attachment 5) found the proposed project area had never been inspected for cultural resources and no sites are recorded within the project boundary. GSA plans to begin Site design for the project in the near future. Once the design is complete, available funding will determine exactly how many units can be constructed, but it will most likely be between 20 and 22. The units will be constructed along the western and southern edges ofthe Site (attachment 6). Preliminary floor plans and perspectives are also included. GSA has determined that there are no historic properties present within the APE. If you do not object to this determination within 30 days ofreceipt ofthis letter, GSA will consider its responsibilities fulfilled under section 106 ofthe National Historic Preservation Act. By copy of this letter we are notifying the Native American tribes listed below ofour undertaking and our determination and soliciting any comments they may have. If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact me at jane.lehman@gsa.gov or (415) 522-3098. Sincerely, ~~ Jane Lehman Regional Historic Preservation Officer Attachments
