Owned by one of Santa Barbara’s first educated physicians, Dr. Samuel Brinkerhoff acquired the land in 1865 and eventually sold it to investor Henry Tallant. 528 Brinkerhoff was one of the first 3 residences constructed on the coveted downtown avenue in 1887, and is believed to be designed by famous Santa Barbara architect Peter Barber. The property was used for residential and commercial uses over the years, including a personal residence, boarding house, health center, restaurant, and antique shop. Charming and original details throughout the home include flooring, ornate railings, and beautiful stained glass windows. The large, magical foyer greets you as you walk up the original front porch and enter the front door, with downstairs office space, formal dining room, and quaint front parlor. Upstairs features bedrooms and a common seating area, along with additional 3rd level attic space. The large 6,098 square foot downtown lot includes mature trees and landscaping, garden and storage sheds, and a garage that backs up to a separate alley entrance. Zoned C2 with endless potential – help restore a piece of history in Santa Barbara’s beautiful downtown!

The Gillespie Speedway It’s difficult to know the age of this home for certain. Although Gillespie Street is just a short walk or ride from State Street, a century ago it was on the outskirts of town, and there are few records of the home’s early residents. Although the County Assessor’s records list the age as 1905, the home is visible on an 1898 map. Nicole Hernandez, the Santa Barbara architectural historian, estimates that the home was probably built between 1890 and 1898, based on its style and its appearance on the map. Way back when, Gillespie Street was a happening place. Residents of this home had a front row seat for the Gillespie Speedway. From 1912 to 1921, the street was closed to automobile traffic from Anapamu to Mission, and horse races were regularly held here. In an interesting parallel, Gillespie Street is scheduled to be part of the Westside Community Paseo, a proposed project to increase bike and pedestrian safety.

A Treasure Underfoot

COURTESY

t’s heartening to meet two young people who are so in love with history that they celebrated their wedding reception at the Santa Barbara Historical Museum, dressed in fashions from the 1800s, and taught their guests how to waltz. Soon after this, the couple — Cameron Clark and Amy Steinfeld — bought this older fixerupper on the Westside and began restoring it with history THE GREAT HOUSE DETECTIVE in mind. The home began as a simple one-story structure that faced south. The two-story portion was added later with a roofline that did not match the home’s style. The current owners remedied this. At one point, the home had been divided into apartments. Clark and Steinfeld had heard that the home had been surby Betsy J. Green rounded by orchards, but pampas grass was also cultivated in this area, judging by an article in the local paper in 1892: “If there are any people in this city who wish to see a really unusual and beautiful sight, we advise them to go out on Gillespie Street and see the beautiful field of pampas grass in full bloom.”

You never know what you might uncover when you start construction work on an older home. One of my previous articles highlighted a family that found an old postcard inside the walls of their home. The 1721 Gillespie home also held a treasure from the past under the floorboards — a bottle of Dr. True’s Elixir. A 1924 ad for this medication claimed it was good for intestinal parasites, indigestion, nausea, headache, colds, and diseases of the stomach and liver. Dr. True claimed it also enabled one patient to, ahem, expel an eight-inch spotted lizard.

The Beckstead Homestead From the 1920s through the 1950s, this house was home to the Jesse P. Beckstead family and his relatives. The Becksteads were one of five families that settled on the Mesa in the 1800s, who were all from a tiny island in Ohio. Who knew Ohio had an island? South Bass Island is in Lake Erie, some three miles north of the Ohio shore. The island is about 2.5 miles square and contains the town of Put-in-Bay. The five families who settled on the Mesa probably knew each other, since the island was so small. The Beckstead family owned a large farm along Cliff Drive, east of Meigs Road, and other property on the city side of the Mesa, about where the intersection of Miramonte and Carrillo is today. Jesse P. Beckstead and his wife and family lived in this home. Jesse farmed with his father and was also owner of the Aloha Dairy. The dairy may have been located on “The Aloha Tract,” which is bounded by Gillespie Street, Robbins Street, Victoria Street, and Arrellaga Street — not far from this home. Amy said she and Cameron love old homes. “We were attracted to the Westside neighborhood’s quaint cottages

and quiet streets. The mature avocado tree caught my eye. Cameron saw the aging house as a challenge to which he could apply his woodworking skills and master the art of historic home restoration.” Please do not disturb the residents of 1721 Gillespie Street.

ADAPATIVE REUSE IN COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE

INDEPENDENT REAL ESTATE

NOVEMBER 11, 2021

realestate.independent.com

daptive reuse is not a new concept in commercial real estate. It is the practice of taking an existing building and repurposing it for a new use. This means renovating an existing building rather than demolishing it and building something new. In the past, we have seen single property assets in urban areas utilize this approach of neighborhood renewal. There are rules that we have to abide by in order to consider something as an adaptive reuse. The first is that you reuse all or a substantial portion of an existing structure. Tearing down a building and putting up a new one is not an adaptive reuse. Secondly, the existing structure has to have had some kind of functional or economic obsolescence. We see this with structures such as abandoned mills, factories, malls and other structures that have outlived their usefulness. Finally, there has to be a change of use. You cannot just put like for like in a renovated structure. We see examples of this with resi-

Improving Land and Wildlife Habitat, While Generating Income for Farmers

lthough a major player in contributing to greenhouse-gas emissions, agriculture has not been a central part of U.S. climate policy. Change is underway, however. One strategy being promoted is incentivizing farmers to seed narrow strips of land around crop fields with native or perennial plants. These plants develop deep roots that soak up fertilizer-saturated water that flows from adjacent fields. They also reduce emissions of nitrous oxide, a greenhouse gas 298 times more potent than carbon dioxide. Nitrous oxide forms under anaerobic conditions (environments without oxygen) in low-lying wet areas of farmlands. Since these soggy areas have poor yields, paying to farm around them is appealing to farmers. Furthermore, leavby Dennis Allen ing them as healthy wetlands (i.e., without artificial fertilizer) sequesters carbon, stores and filters water, and provides crucial habitat for mammals, birds, and frogs. These efforts are among the least expensive conservation practices.

GOING GREEN

Another climatefriendly strategy gaining a foothold in California is designed to counter the 95 percent conversion of the Central Valley’s four million acres of wetlands into farmland. The goal is to compensate rice farmers to flood their fields and create a safe habitat for migrating birds between growing seasons. Started in 2012 as a cooperative partnership between farmers, environmental nonprofits, water agencies and scientists, BirdReturns has been widely successful. The migration of shorebirds and waterfowl along the Pacific Flyway is one of the greatest phenomena on earth. Participating farmers use minimal tillage to knock down crop stubble while leaving grain residue, thus making favorable environments for birds when flooded with 2-4 inches of water. Due to big data, this flexible, cost-effective program is attuned to the timing and needs of birds, mainly rest and refueling. The goal

is now to create one million acres of habitat and double the winter bird population in the Central Valley. Furthermore, the birds provide natural fertilizer, allowing farmers to cut down on synthetic fertilizers. Another program, also in California, patterned after BirdReturns, is helping salmon and other fish to grow faster, thus increasing their survival rate when head-

ing out to sea. Fields are inundated with up to a foot of water during the non-growing season, creating ideal conditions to produce tons of water bugs on which juvenile fish depend. This bug-rich water is either pumped into the rivers or the fish are channeled onto the flooded fields. Fish size and weight is 4-5 times more than those deprived of these nutrient-rich waters. California salmon may yet rebound. There is a long-standing perception that agriculture and conservation cannot coexist, but these programs demonstrate that farming, wildlife, native plants, and climate can all benefit through scientific understanding and cooperation. Dennis Allen is chair of Allen Construction, an employee-owned company committed to building and operating sustainably. He also serves as chair of the Dean’s Council at the Bren School of Environmental Science & Management at UCSB and as a boardmember of the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History.
