It is a recently restored example of the Art Moderne atyle, and an elegant essay in architectural craftsmanship. Its smooth, wrap-around shape, according to the architect, Magnus Jemne, was the result of the site. "The building had to be fitted into a curiously shaped piece of land," he explained. Originally built as the down- town "clubhouse" of the Saint Paul Women�s City Club, the structure was built in 1931 for $265,000, including the interior furnishinga. The club had deter- mined that their new building should be modern and functional, and designed by a local architect. Though his previous work had been in traditional styles, Magnus Jemne was selected for the job. The combination of that five-eided corner lot and Jemne's design resulted in �he first and finest example of Streamlined Moderne architecture in the state. A native of Kristiansund, Norway, Jemne came to the United States at age seventeen. He received his architectural training at the University of Pennsylvania, and after graduation established an office in Saint Paul. For awhile he worked with partnera in the firm of Holyoke, Jemne and Davis, but he later maintained his own office. Before receiving the commission from the Women's City Club, his work had been iu designs for affluent residences in conservative and undistinguished styles. He was a successful and accomplished architect, but innovation was by no means his hallmark. The choice of an advanced Art Deco treatment for the clubhouse, with a design polished and assured in every aspect of construction, indicates that Jemne had in fact been biding his time. Opportunity arose, and he eeized it. The building is constructed on a steel and concrete frame. It has a polished granite base and entryway, and walls of random-ahaped Mankato travertine. The stone is in shapes most easily quarried, and in fact materials and construction techniques are strictly functional. The curved facade, however, has no structural or functional purpose. It is simply as smooth, pure and apare as geanetry. It gives the streamlined "wind tunnel" effect through massing and feneatration--an architectural effect repeated for the next decade. Curved window banding con- strains the weight of the building much in the same way strapping does a bale of hay. The impression of movement is achieved through glass, with window cours�ing resting lightly on solid granite. Other typical Moderne features are the flat roof, limited ornamentation, and setback penthouse and terrace. The curved windows of the southeast projection emphasi$e the coimnanding corner location and enhance the feeling of horisontal velocity. . , "A seismic shudder shook Saint Paul" the Pioneer Press reports, when the Women's City Club announced that it was aelling its �clubhouse in 1971. The article goes on to explain that: ` , . . - . . SA1NT PAI� �fRITAGE Pf�SERUATIq�I Oq"MISSIai SITE Nd"IINATI�I FOAM VI1 NARRATIVE: HISTORY AI� SIGNIFICANCE OF S1TE continued page -2- A changing economy boosted taxes and expenaes for the organization that had gone over the top financially in hard timea but found prosperity brought with it dwindling membership and increased dues. Downtown men's cluba, facing similar problema, have been able to draw on corporation and businesa reserves. (But) when the money pinch comes, a club for women standa alone. The building was bought by the Minneaota Muaetun of Art. It was restored and remodeled under the supervision of Malcolm E. Lein. Hie alterations to the interior consistently adhere to the apirit of the original. The meticulously executed terrazzo floors, for instance, with geometric and stylized patterning by artist Elsa Jemne, were repaired wherevar poseible. The decorative, recti- linear light fixturea, designed by Minneapo.lie artiet Frank Poat were retained, as were the incredible machine-age brass and chrome elevators. Wherever major changes were necessary in order to tranafoxm the building into a public museum, as with the movable partition walls for galleries, the intrinsic architecture was left alone. The exception is a picture window installed in the pivotal corner in order to light the director's office. Oriented toward Kellogg Boulevard, it once "conmanded a aweeping view of the river". The view has been intruded upon by the new jatl and the Northern Statea Power plant acroas the street. The building itaelf has been dwarfed by other, later construction, notably the City Court House, built in 1933, and the latest addition to the Telephone Company complex, a purple-gray tower, built in 1977. Only the old Ramsey County jail acroas Saint Peter Street shares both scale and color with the museum building. The date of the building marka Jemne as one of the ear'y participants in the Streamlined Moderne style. Similar and better known pieces of architecture were built afterwards throughout the country, but few surpasa Jemne's Women City Club in restraint, craftsmanah�p and beauty. . MINNESOTA MUSE1�4 OF ART Preservation Program The exterior appearance of the Minnesota Museum of Art ehould be preserved ' in a manner consistent with the original design intent. As the design is dependent upon a few strong but simple elements (auch as the fenestration) any alterations or additiona must be very carefully conaidered. � y' ' , Minnesota : �eum of Art� city of saint paul planning commission resolution file number 78-�5 C�ate _ October 27, 1978 WHEREAS, the St. Paul Heritage Preservation Comnission has advised the Planning Commission of the proposed designation of the Minnesota Museum of Art, 305 St. Peter Street, as a Heritage Preservation site; and WHEREAS, the Heritage Preservation Comnission has forwarded a program for the preservatfon of the Minnesota Museum of Art; BE IT NOW RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission makes the following recommendations with respect to the designation of the Minnesota Museum of Art: 1 . The designation and program for preservation do not conflict with the Comprehensive Plan of the c1ty. 2. The architecture of this site is one of the few remaining local examples from the Art Deco period and as such has a distinctive visual impact on the area. 3. An addition to the museum has been contemplated; if the decision is made to go ahead, the design will have to be planned with great care. 4, The Planning Comnission recomnends approval of the proposed designation of the Minnesota Museum of Art. . moved by Grai s seconded by Han9�; - in favor 11 against___�__ 1 abstain � � � 1 � ,' � ��a-� . � • � �� . .. �� I ' � '� � � . �, ' � � � � H � ,}- �' .. �o n � � � � � � � �' , ; � � , . . � W o � 0 0 � � � U� , � � � d � � � � N N � ' G� ;f' ;c —�- � � � � , c � � , � � N � � �' � L � � ', � N � ' � �O � ;� , i � �, � � �, � � Io • n n �, ro � � � �C .

Hence, it would be very unlikely that a potential conflict would arise with the Comnission's permit review power over these sites. a The Heritage Preservation Correnission, therefore, respectfully requests J the City Council to take the nominations of the six downtown buildings 1 (St. Paul Building, McColl Building, Pioneer/Endicott-Midwest Buildings, 3 Landmark Center, St. Pau} Public and James J. Hill Reference Library and Minnesota Museum of Art) from the table. Perhaps it would be most appropriate for the Council 's City Development Corr�nittee to consider this matter before it is brought again before the full Council . I have attached a summary of Mr. Hall 's comments before the Comnission. The Heritage Preservation Commission was favorably impressed with the development of the skyway system as described by Mr. Hall . The system has shown a sensitivity to minimizing impact on historic buildings as evidenced by the Pioneer and Endicott Building's skyways. If it appears that a planned skyway will have a direct impact on a historic building, the Comnission will make its position clear in the building's preservation program, as it did with City Hall 's recommended program which accepts the Annex skyway connection. Thank you for your consideration. ' Sincerely, ��t �,.�/�� Ernest Sandeen, Chairperson .

T'he discussion, then, turned to those buildings downtown which the Commission has recommended to the City Council for designation as Historic Preservation Sites. I was asked to comment on the potential for future skyway bridges to each of the buildings: , . ��"'�..�,� � � i . Page 2 � _ . 1. ST.

Future slcyway bridges in this block �rould ' more likely be built from the Doecfler Square Building across Wabasha; the Lowry • Medical Building across St. Peter; the Field Schlic4c Building across Fifth Street; or the City Hail Annex across Fourth Street. None of these possible connections � are firm yet and each would be dependent on some future private developmznt_ either in the form of extensive remodeling or new construction. ' 2.

(Block�40), but present plans call for skyway connections in other buildings in the block and not directly into the McColl Building. 3. PIONEER/ENDICOTT-MID1"JEST' BUILDNGS - ROBERT AND FOURTH STREETS Comment: Skyways into this block already exist. No future skyways are pIanned at this time and would only occur when and if there were future redevelopment of the north side of the block at the Empire Building. ' 4. LANDMARK CENTER - 109 W. FIFTH STREET � � Cornment: There is nearly universal agreement that this building should never be connected via a second level skyway. Planning done to date for pedestrian j connection to this building has always considered a tunnel connection from the { Hamm Building or other blocks as the preferred alternative. � ? 5. ST. PAUL PUBLIC AND JAMES JEROME HILL REFERENCE LIBRARY - + 90 N. FOURTH STREET s j ; Comment: Same as the I.andmark Center — connection, if any, would probably � be by tunnel rather than skyway. , 6. A�IINNESOTA MUSEUM OF ART - 305 ST. PETER STREET Comment: Because of the unique nature of surrounding buildings, such as City Hall Court House, Northwestern Bell addition, West Publishing Co., a skyway appears highly unlikely in the foreseeable future. � • 7. THE ST. PAUL CITY HALL AND RAMSEY COUNTY COURT HOUSE Comment: Two skyway bridges into this building are possible. The first,would connect to the City Hal1 Annex across Fourth St; the second wouid connect . to the Commerce Building across Wabasha St. The first bridge to the City Hall Annex woutd be in place of a proposed tunnel connection under Fourth St. The primary case which can be made for a skyway bridge rather than a tunnel is that a second level connection would better serve the public if there were other second level connections (and possibly a People Mover Station) from new development in the St. Paul Hotel block and remodeling o# the Lowry Medical Building on the first and second levels. . _ _ Page 3 i The City has made no final decision on either of these futu:e skyway connections and will probably not.ma4<e a firm decisio� until the DPYI and the development ' issues for the adjacent blocks become more clear and more certain. � � �Vith respect to the possible location of a skyway bridge connection from City Hall to the City Hall Annex, illustrations were presented which show that the most desirabl� connection (aesthetically) would be into the west side of City ! Hall over the alley. Again, no final decision has been made on a specific bridge � or its possible alternative location. . { � Finally, the question was asked about the design of present and future skyway bridges j in the downtown area. I responded by noting that all bridges look alike on purpose -- ; so they will not compete architecturally or aesthetically with the variety and diversity j of existing buildings and with new development. They are purposely "neutral" in character I so as to blend into the overall street scene and not call attention to themselves to � any great degree. They are considered more as "street furniture", with a standard, i uniform size, shape and color. In my opinion--and this is only my opinion, not any official City position—this uniformity �vorks better aesthetically than having a variety of bridge designs throughout the downtown area. � Thank you for the opportunity to meet with the Commission. If I may be of any further assistance, piease advise me. J Sincerely, , � � ..�GC� . Robert F. Hatl Project Manager � - RFH/bkd cc: Mayor Latimer City Council Members G. Stout D. Ford �. Englund D.

This packet includes a "question and ansNrer surr�nary" listing information on the ten sites 6efore Council on February 22, 1979. Also attached are copies of letters received from owners of these sites, per the City Council request at its February 1 , 1979 meeting. The letters thus far received all support designation.

City Clerk✓ . - �� A QUESTION AND ANS��IER SUMMARY OF ISSUES RELATED TO HERITAGE PRESERVATION SITES w ' 2/15/79 There were a number of questions -- general and specific -- raised at the City Council meeting on February l , 1979 in regards to public hearings on ten proposed Heritage Preservation Sites. The City Attorney was asked for a legal opinion on some of these questions. In addition, the Heritage Preservation Commission thought that it would be helpful to present a brief question and answer summary of these concerns. Q.) Several specific que�tions were raised about the ten sites up for hearing: 1 . Was the site on the National Register of Nistoric Places? 2. If not, who requested designation? 3. Do the owners of the sites support designation? � 4. What procedures were followed for notification? � A.) In 1979 the Heritage Preservation Commission established a policy direction of nominating all National Register sites to the city's list of historic sites. This is the origin of most of the recommenda- ions before City Council . All owners of potential sites were contacted by mail and personally ` by Commission and/or staff before a scheduled hearing by the Heritage "�. Preservation Commission. Owners within 350 feet of said property were notified of the hearing to discuss potential designation. The j "All List" and Early Notification List for each district were also notified of the public hearing for ail of these sites. Notice of the Commission's hearing was published in the St. Paul Pioneer Press. Owners were again contacted by staff to inform them of the HPC recommendation to City Council and of the City Council 's hearing. Regular notification procedure was again followed for City Council � hearing. � 1.

In recent correspondence,��staff has asked Mr. Slavich . for a brief written statement of his position. 8.

Later the tentative district boundaries wer� redrawn excluding the Museum frc�� the potEntial � district, but the HPC felt the building to be outstanding enough -- to merit indi,viduai designation. • - HPC public hearing February 6, 1978 - Owner, Minnesota Museum of Art, supports designation 9. St. Paul Public and James J. Hill Reference Library - National Register - HPC public hearing February 6, 1978 - - The City of St. Paul is the owner. The appropriate city departments were notified with no objections. Presumably the City Council by its own act of designation will make the final decision. , � 10. Landmark Center � ��5�� - National Register rei6 - HPC public hearing February 6, 1978 - The owner is Ramsey County. The Ramsey County Board of Commissioners was notified. Staff for the ��innesota l.andmark's Board (which administers the Center) supported the designation at the public hearing. However, by oversight, the Minnesota Landmark`s Board was not formally contacted for its position - 3 - on designation. A resolution regarding designation is on the �� Minnesota Landmark's Board meeting agenda for February 15, 1979. ,.� - Q. ) Was the District 8 Council notified of the proposed designation of the Luckert House at the time of HPC public hearing? _ A.) Yes. Q.) Mr. James Mann, when speaking to the Luckert Nouse designation, mentioned lack of action taken on a request for a district designation. What was that district? A.} Mr. Mann, as a citizen of District 8, requested consideration by the HPC of a district on Dayton Avenue between Grotto and St. Albans. The Commission directed staff to research this area as a possible district. 7his research is now completed and will be forwarded to the Candidates Committee of the HPC on February 15, 1979. Q.) Does designation of an individual site effect any other nearby property owners? A.) No, the designation (and consequent permit review power) only applies to that particular property. . Q. ) How does a historic district designation differ from an individual � . site designation? ' . A.) A historic district designation covers several or more properties. The purpose of a district is to preserve the distinctive architectural character of an entire area. The "preservation p.rogram" for a district will usually be a general set of guidelines for rehabilitation of existing buildings and for new construction in the district. A building permit application for any structure in the district would be revie�red but each case would be reviewed with respect to the particular character of that hosue (if rehab) or surrounding houses (if new construction). • Q.) Does designation of a site or district mean that no changes, projects , or plans could take place in the future on that site or district?' � A.) No, designation simply means that proposed changes would be reviewed by the HPC in light of the defined historic character involv� CortIInission's power is not absolute, and any perntit applicant - or aggrieved party may appeal to City Council. " Q.) What is �the procedure for appeal? � A.) If the HPC denies a permit application, it must advise the applicant (or other official party) of her/his right to appeal the decision and provide them with the ordinance explanation of that procedure. The applicant shall make this request for appeal within ten days of . the HPC decision. - 4 - Q.) Would "de-designating" a Heritage Preservation Site be necessary to demolish it? A.) No, a Heritage Preservation Site may be demolished with approval of the wrecking permit by the HPC. Their written opinion must address � historical/architectural merit and issues of economic usefulness (as spelled out in the HPC ordinance). As with a building permit application, the HPC's decision may be appealed to the City Council . Q.) Is there some way to know whether the designation of a building will create camplications for city-approved plan? A.) Yes, the Planning Commission reviews all recommended designations in light of planning considerations before they reach City Council . Q.) Are skyways prohibited in Heritage Preservation Sites or Districts? A.) No, like any other project a p�oposed skyway would be reviewed by the HFC considering the effect on the historic integrity of the particular site in question. The Commission has never gone on record as being opposed to sf�yways. Each project and each site would be � considered individually. . Q.) Are there benefits to the owner of a designated site? A.) Yes, the possibility of i�creased property value is certainly one value. If a building is not on the National Register, St. Paul designation will make National Designation a greater likelihood When on the National Register the buiiding would qualify for certain grants-in-aid; and if cortnercial or income-producing may qual�fy for tax benefits. � � r� � SAINT PAUL HERITAGE PRESERVATION COP4P�1ISSION i WORK PROGRAM FOR 1979 The Heritage Preservation Commission was created in 1976 by city ordinance. The Commission is responsible far recommending buildings, sites, and districts to the City Council for designation as Heritage Preservation Sites. Once a building is so designated, every building permit application for its exterior must be reviewed by the Commission. A dissatisfied applicant may always appeal to City Council . P�ineteen seventy-eight was the Heritage Preservation Commission's second year of existence. It was the first year of full operation, with the Commission implementing policy decisions and refining procedures formulated in 1977. The Commission was especially active in one primary realm of responsibility: recommending designation of Neritage Preservation Sites. A policy decision was made to initially consider all sites on the National Register of Historic Places for St. Paul designation in addition to any nominations from citizens. In accordance with that policy, all of the indivTdual National Register Sites have now been researched and considered by the Commission. Nine of these sites have been officially designated by the City Council , thirteen have been recommended to City Council and are currently pending, and five have recently been before public hearing of the Commission. In 1979 the Heritage Preservation Commission sees its work program as follow�: 1 . HISTORIC DISTRICT DESIGNATION � With the consideration of individual P�ational Register Sites almost completed, the Commission will concentrate on revi�wing the three Plational Register Distric��s within St. Paul as potential municipal districts. The largest of these is the Historic Nill National Register `_ District. At the recommendation of its Historic Hi11 Advisory Committee -- and for the purpose of public discussion only -- the Commission has tentatively proposed iocal boundaries identical to the State Historic Hili District (which includes the Woodland Park National Register District) in order to ensure that ali citizens and community groups could speak to their desired inclusion or exclusion from a district. The Cortunission has no� taken a final position on the district . and is not opposed to boundaries closer to those of the National Register District(s). The other National Register District to be considered for St. Paul designation in 1979 will be the Irvine Park District, with boundaries almost identical to the national district. A proposed Rice Park Historic District was brought before public hearing � in 1978. At that hearing the proposed district encountered questions from some property owners who were concerned about what specific • requirements would have to be met in any permit reviews. In response to these concerns the Commission tabled their recommendation, reduced district boundaries, and drafted a set of design guidelines for the �� / Work Program for 1979 - 2 - proposed district. With these guidelines now approved as a draft for public discussion, the Commission will meet with all individual owners to discuss the district and guidelines. Lowertown Development Corporation has also inquired about the possibility of a historic district for that area. If a formal request is received, it is not clear how much time and consideration would be required to create such a district. . 2. REVIEW OF CITIZENS' NOh1INATIONS The Commission will , of course, continue to receive and evaluate nominations of buildings put forth by St. Paul. citizens or groups. Actual recommendation for designation of such sites will be based on strict application of the ordinance's evaluation criteria and on avail- able staff time. 3. PERMIT REVIEW • � 4�ith nine sites designated and more pending it is probable that the Commission will be reviewing buildinq permit appTications for some of these sites in 1979. (With only three designated sites during most of 1978, the Commission did not have a chance to �exercise any permit review power.) � 4-. HISTORIC SITE SURVEY Evaluating the worth of any potential historic site is hampered without . a comparative knowledge of all other possible sites in the city. � -�herefore, the Corrnnission .is charged in the ordinance with_conducting . _ : :a_ citywide survey of bistoric_sites: -'In '1979 the Commission �will put together_a joint grant application with the Ramsey County Histo rical Society to fund a citywide survey from State Historic Preservation funds and private foundation monies. Hence, the survey and its administration will involve almost no regular city staff time. w Iti � SAINT PAUL HERITAGE PRESERVATION SITES -DESIG�JATED APID POTENTIAL- DESIGNATED ST.
