BRIEFING
HISTORIC ARCHITECTURAL SURVEY PROJECT
4:15 P.M.
ITEM # 35739
Robert Davis, Planner with the Planning Department, advised the City Counci I
APPROVED the City's participation in a Cost Share Agreement with the State of
Virginia to conduct a Architectural Reconnaissance Survey for the northern
portion of the City. Frazier Associates was hired to conduct the survey. Mr.
Davis introduced Wi II iam Frazier, Principal of Frazier Associates, to advise
the firm's recommendations.
Wi I I i am Fraz i er d i str i buted a DRAFT copy of the Arch I tectura I Reconna i ssance
Survey Report. Mr. Frazier introduced those in attendance who contributed to
the Survey: Robert Davis - Planner and developer of the Historic Sites Survey
Advisory Committee; Tom Ackiss - Chairman - Historic Sites Survey Advisory
Committee Member; Tony Lohman and Anne Henry - Members of the Historic Sites
Survey Advisory Committee. Mr. Frazier extended appreciation to all of the
Committee Members, the Planning staff and his staff consisting of Anne McCleary
- Project Editor, Lisa Tucker - Project Manager and Randy Sheirik - Surveyor.
The project consisted of completing a survey of over 200 properties, primari Iy
in the northern portion of the City. Of these, 170 historic sites were surveyed
at the Reconnaissance Level and 30 at the Intensive Level. A photograph of the
property was taken and a form comp I eted. I ndepth research was not conducted on
individual bui Idings; however, bui Idings were recommended for further research.
The project consisted of basic background and a written report on the
historical development of Virginia Beach into a series of themes for the
purpose of conducting further research. These themes are establ ished by the
State to ana I yze a II aspects of life in a Commun i ty' s growth and deve I opment
through time. A portion of the project consisted of a sl ide presentation with a
script.
Mr. Frazier advised the following historic sites were surveyed: all pre Civil
War Structures, outstanding examples of different styles and periods of
construction after the Civil War. Many areas where pre-1940 structures existed
were identified for future survey. Four hundred and seventeen (417) resources
and properties have previously been identified within the City of Virginia
Beach. Eighteen (18) themes were studied as suggested by the Virginia
Department of Hi stor i c Resources. The goa I was to attempt to .f i nd propert i es
through the survey which would relate to the different aspects of comlTllnity
I ife. Within the northern 2/3 of the City, the current survey focused primari Iy
on the Oceanfront, as well as Oceana. Additional identified sites were also
surveyed, scattered back inland from the Oceanfront, as suggested by the
Committee. United States Geological Survey quadrangle maps were also surveyed,
scattered back inland from the Oceanfront as suggested by the Committee. Survey
forms are prov i ded by the Vi rg i n i a Department of Hi stor i c Resources, used to
identify basic architectural data and historical information on each property.
These forms have been adapted and uti lized in the field. The factors
investigated were: ownership, age, condition, description, special features and
sources of historical information. The data was then utilized to generate a
final form through a computerized integrated preservation software provided by
the State. Floor plans were drawn for the more important complex bui Idings and
photographs taken at each site, with the negatives being placed in the Archives
in the Virginia State Library in Richmond. Copies of the photographs and forms
are also given to the Planning Department. Many of the earl jest surviving
structures in Vi rg i n i a Beach were not surveyed, as they were a I ready on the
National Register of Historic Places, i.e. the Thoroughgood House. However,
the survey did update the documentation on several earl ier dwell jngs, which had
been previously surveyed.
Through the uti I ization of sl ides, Mr. Frazier displayed various forms of
architecture. Wolfsnare Plantation, dates to the Mid Eighteenth Century and
illustrates one of the oldest plan types found in the area with a central hall.
The home represents a typical dwell ing of the planter class el ite of that era.

BRIEFING
HISTORIC ARCHITECTURAL SURVEY PROJECT
ITEM # 35739 (Continued)
The next period of houses surveyed dates to the first half of the Nineteenth
Century. The majority of the surveyed properties featured a side-passage,
double-pi Ie plan with two end fireplaces illustrated by the Old Comfort
farmhouse. During this era, local residents began to bui Id larger, finer houses
finished with "Federal" period woodwork. Bui Iding characteristics of the
Eighteenth Century were carr i ed from th is era into the Nineteenth Century as
displayed by the shed dormers and gambrel roof of Tal I wood. Only three houses
of this period in the survey, which have the full two stories, are the DeFord
House, Broad Bay Manor and the Fentress House.
Some of the earlier architectural forms and plans were continued after the
Civi I War, as depicted in the Ewell House which has a double-pi Ie, side passage
plan and two full stories. Few late 19th Century farmhouses were recorded in
the survey. One of the more common house types was the I-house and refers to a
single-pi Ie, central page plan. Other late Nineteenth century houses illustrate
more regular forms that became increasingly popular during the Victorian era.
One of the most common was the L-shaped dwelling on Credle and Holland Road.
Many of these houses have decorative trim known as "gingerbread" on the eves
and on the front porch. Many of these came out of national bui Iding magazines
of the period.
By the early Twentieth Century, house plans and styles were drawn from
architectural pattern books in popular magazines. The bungalow is one of the
most popular types resulting from this trend. Many of these are contained in
the Beach area. Beach arch i tecture exh i bits a rich pattern of sty I es and
influence and range from the international style to the Spanish mission style.
The majority of the earl iest development on the oceanfront no longer exists.
Several surviving examples are located along Pacific Avenue at Eleventh Street.
These early settlements were created as summer cottages by prominent fami lies
from Richmond, Lynchburg and other areas of the State. Another early
development is located between Twenty-second and Twenty-fourth Street and
developed around the nearby Lifesaving Station. This area incorporates a
variety of styles including the popular Colonial Revival. North of the Resort
Area, the res i dents were bu i I t for year' round purposes intended to be much
larger and more substantial than those at the southend. These were executed in
both frame and masonry. The Colonial Revival remained the most popular choice.
The North End also contained the gambl ing clubs associated with the Prohibition
Era. Two of these are included in the current survey: the Gables on Holly
Crescent and the Crysta I Club, now Greystone Manor, on Wi I der Road of f of
Fifty-second Street extended.
At the turn-of-the-century, many of the hotels, excluding the larger Princess
Anne Hotel, were shingled resort cottage designs built on a slightly larger
scale to provide enough space for visitor accommodations. The Avamere Hotel is
an example of this architecture which sti II survives. The Plnewoods is a second
type of early hotel exhibiting a more commercial form. The hotel was
constructed by the Laskin tami Iy and reflects the deep rectangular store
bui Idings, with a three-story elevation and more styl istic features. Recreation
is a dominant theme in much of the development of the Resort area beginning in
the early Twentieth Century. The Peppermint Beach Club, originally known as the
New Casino, is one of the few surviving of this era.
With the rapid increase in population during and after World War II, multiple
tenant types of bui Idings arose at the Beach. An early apartment complex
located on Sixth Street is shown here. One of the few surviving early Twentieth
Century neighborhoods is Oceana with its many bungalow residents.
By the 1950's, the entire Oceanfront was beginning to be redeveloped and today
the boardwalk is I ined with many modern, international motels.
The Community of Seatack was another residential area surveyed from the early
Twentieth Century associated with the early Afro-American community. St.
Stephen's Church, a fine example of a small rei igious structure, was executed
in artificial stone.

ARTICLE III.
EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL AND TREE PROTECTION
DIVISION 1.
GENERALLY
Sec. 30-56.
Findings of Council.
The city council has determined that the trees and the lands
and waters comprising the watersheds of the city are great natural
resources; that as a result of erosion of lands by both winds and
water and sediment deposition in waters within the watersheds of
the city, such waters are being polluted and despoiled to such a
degree that that fish, acquatic aquatic life, recreation and other
uses of lands and waters are being adversely affected; that the
rapid shift in land use from agricultural to nonagricultural uses
has accelerated the processes of soil erosion and sedimentation and
tree removal; and that it is necessary to establish and implement,
through the division of engineering of the department of public
'fwrko
planninq,
city-wide
coordinated
a
erosion
and
sediment
control program to conserve and protect the land, water, air, trees
and other natural resources of the city.

runoff shall be retained if present and established where
345
it does not exist.
346
The buffer area shall be located adjacent to and landward
347
of other components of a resource protection area.
The
348
full buffer area shall be designated as the landward
349
component of the resource protection area.

A combination of a buffer area not less than
354
fifty (50) feet in width and appropriate best management
355
practices located landward of the buffer area which
356
collectively achieve water quality protection, pollutant
357
removal, and water resource conservation at least the
358
equivalent of the full one-hundred-foot buffer area may
be employed in lieu of the one-hundred-foot buffer with
359
360
the
approval
of
the
colRIRittcc
director
after
361
consideration of a water quality impact assessment.
362
The buffer area shall be maintained to meet the following
363
additional performance standards:
364
(1)
In order to maintain the functional value of the
365
buffer area,
no
indigenous vegetation shall be
366
removed except to provide
for reasonable sight
367
lines, access paths, general woodlot management,
368
and best management practices, as follows:
369
(a)
Trees may be pruned or removed as necessary to
370
provide for sight lines and vistas, provided
371
that where removed,
they shall be replaced
372
with other vegetation that is equally
effective in retarding runoff, preventing
erosion, and filtering nonpoint source
373

zoning ordinance, trees and woody vegetation
may be removed, necessary control techniques
employed, and appropriate vegetation
established to protect or stabilize the
shoreline in accordance with the best
available technical advice and applicable
permit conditions or requirements.
When the application of the buffer areas would
result in the loss of a buildable area on a lot or
parcel
recorded prior to October
1,
1989,
the
committee may allow reductions of the width of the
buffer area in accordance with following criteria:
(a)
Encroachments upon, or reductions in the width
of,
the buffer
shall
be the minimum
area
necessary
to
reasonable

a
construction footprint solely for a principal
structure.
Once construction is complete, the
vacant area within the construction footprint
shall be restored with vegetation according to
the landscape plan;
(b)
Where possible, an area of vegetation equal in
size to the area of the buffer reduced or
encroached upon shall be established elsewhere
on the lot in such manner as to maximize water
(c)
quality protection; and
In no case shall the reduced portion of the
buffer area be less than fifty (50) feet in
