"Subject: Motion - The Statton Residence, located at 1415 South Gramercy Place (on the Westside of the street between Pico and 15th Street) is a historically significant site which should be included in the City's list of historic or cultural monuments. The Statton Residence is an early 20th Century Gothic Revival/Tudor Revival style residential structure in the Historic West Adams District. The Residence was built in 1911 during the height of the Arts & Crafts era in architecture, and also reflects elements of that style. The Statton Residence is one of very few examples of the Althouse Brothers' structures still extant in West Adams... The Statton Residence is also significant because of its association with a leading Los Angeles architect, Frank M. TYLER... The Statton Residence, however, with its stone base, elaborate use of hardwoods, and overall square footage, is grander than these. The Statton Residence is also significant because of its association with several prominent Los Angeles families. William Otterbein STATTON, the original owner-occupant, was a well-known Colorado financier, businessman and politician who moved to Los Angeles as president of the Kennedy-Pierce brokerage company... THEREFORE, MOVE that, pursuant to Section 22.126 of the Administrative Code, the City Council propose that the Statton Residence, whose location is identified in the text of this Motion, be included in the City's list of cultural or historic monuments..."
