Starr Farmhouse
Historic Restoration
 
    What a Wreck June 2008  Phase 1 October 2008         Our Project Goal(s): 
We plan to restore the Starr Dairy Farmhouse as a single family residence in an as historically-accurate manner as possible to reflect its place as the original and only Jefferson Park residence at a time when this part of Los Angeles was still agrarian. We will also preserve some cosmetic alterations done by the original family in the early part of the 20th Century, specifically Craftsman period upgrades to the dining room. All systems will be replaced with new materials and all upgrades will be accomplished with sensitivity to original architectural features, construction and use of the property. As a landmark property, we need to adhere to federal Secretary of Interior Rehabilitation Standards, and we also will utilize California Historical Building Code.
