Historic Landmark Recommendations for Structures Located <br />Within Boundaries of Historic District <br />The Historic Resources Advisory Committee recommends that three structures <br />located within the proposed expanded historic district be designated as individual <br />historic landmarks as well as being part of the historic district. <br />The structures are known historically as Clifton Motor Co. located at 847 – 849 <br />Main Street, Flynn’s Ford Agency and Garage located at 935 Main Street and <br />Dessin Bros. – Barnbauer Motors located at 1101 Main Street. 847 – 849 Main <br />Street was designed for a Chevrolet dealership. 935 Main Street is the first <br />structure in Redwood City to be designed as a new car showroom salon and auto <br />repair garage. 1101 Main Street was designed to contain a new Dodge sales <br />salon. These three structures exemplify the early-day auto industry in Redwood <br />City having been built in 1922, 1920 and 1931 respectively. <br />These structures possess special qualities, which qualify them as Redwood City <br />historic landmarks. Detailed historic and architectural descriptions of the three <br />structures are included in this packet. <br />It is noteworthy that representatives of the State Office of Historic Preservation <br />did a field review of the area and have indicated that 847 – 849 Main Street, 935 <br />Main Street and 1101 Main Street could qualify for individual listing in the <br />National Register of Historic Places. <br />Page 65 <br />7.B. - Page 76
