Historic Places and the California Register of Historical Resources, and the criteria set forth under Title 20 of the City of Riverside Municipal Code (Ord. 6263 (1996), as amended). Upon completion of all research and survey work, the results were recorded using the City of Riverside’s Historic Resources Inventory Database, and state-approved DPR forms were generated from database records. SITE SPECIFIC RESEARCH Selective site-specific research was conducted as needed by JMRC and facilitated by City staff to assist in the establishment of dates of construction, alteration history, and historical association. The results of building permit research were recorded by street on JMRC forms, and Assessor’s parcel number, street address, building footprints, and aerial photos were provided in map form by City staff. A table was also provided to JMRC that included the estimated date of construction for each property in the survey area according to Assessor’s records. For some properties where no original building permit existed, where Assessor’s records were missing or regarded as inaccurate, or where additional historical information was needed to make determinations of significance or non-significance, JMRC reviewed archived Assessor’s records on microfiche at the County of Riverside. ORAL HISTORIES As personal and community histories passed down through spoken recollections and the telling of stories has become increasingly valued and respected, oral history as component of the historic resources survey has become more prevalent. As called for in the Scope of Work, three formal oral history sessions were planned to assist in the identification and evaluation of historic resources as much of the Northside’s history has not been studied or recorded METHODOLOGY As described in National Register Bulletin No. 24, the history of a neighborhood or the significance of buildings, areas, or landscapes may be “richly represented in the memories of its people, and its cultural and aesthetic values may be best represented in their thoughts, expressions, and ways of life.” Three formal oral history sessions were included in the proposed Scope of Work in order to record the recollections and perceptions of long-time Northside residents, assist in the development of the historic context statement, and help identify and evaluate important buildings and places in the community. A multi-phased approach to the oral history component of the survey ensured that site-specific and general research both contributed to and were guided by the oral history sessions. 7
BACKGROUND RESEARCH To prepare for the oral history sessions, JMRC compiled and studied existing primary and secondary source material on the Northside, including building permits, Assessor’s records, previous surveys, written histories, historic maps and photographs, and newspaper articles. Areas where information was lacking or would benefit from clarification were noted to discuss during the oral histories. FIELD RECONNAISSANCE During a preliminary windshield survey of the project and surrounding areas in October 2004, JMRC made note of potential historic themes and observed extant property types and resources within and near the survey boundaries for later investigation during the oral history sessions. At that time, JMRC noted similarities and differences within the survey area, which appeared to be shaped by topography, land use, and period of development, for further discussion with longtime residents during the oral histories. SELECTION OF INTERVIEW PARTICIPANTS In an early February meeting of JMRC, City staff, representatives of the City’s Cultural Heritage Board, and professional and student volunteers, a list of known long-time residents of the Northside community was made from which to select a group, or groups, of willing oral history interviewees. JMRC contacted each individual by telephone to explain the purpose of the survey project and the oral history component and to request their participation. Follow-up letters, along with a list of interview questions, were sent by JMRC to interested individuals inviting them to participate at one of two scheduled oral history sessions, and telephone confirmation with each participant was made before each session. The third session was organized by university of California, Riverside student volunteer Michelle Rypinski and consisted mostly of members of her immediate and extended family. PREPARATION OF INTERVIEW QUESTIONS A list of questions to pose to oral history interviewees was collectively prepared by the participants of the February oral history planning meeting and was based on their knowledge of the Northside and the background research and field reconnaissance completed by JMRC. The scheduled oral history sessions were guided by the prepared questions, which were given to participants prior to the meeting and were also intended to prompt thought and recollection into areas not specifically introduced (Appendix II). 8
