he streetcar no longer runs along Victoria Street, but it did in 1905 when widow Ella Stockton Hunter built her home at 223 East Victoria Street for $2,000. Ella and her husband had owned a lemon orchard in Montecito, but after he passed away, she relocated closer to town.

Her decision was likely influenced by the presence of the streetcar line and other conveniences. Today, the house at 223 East Victoria Street is the home of Phil and Maureen Mayes.

In 1905, the streetcars in Santa Barbara had been electrified for a decade, and the tracks stretched from West Cabrillo Boulevard near the Potter Hotel, up State Street to Victoria Street near the Arlington Hotel, where the line split into two branches.

The western branch ran up Bath Street to Pueblo and Castillo Streets, near Cottage Hospital. The other branch ran east along Victoria Street, passing right by the house standing at 223 East Victoria Street. At Garden Street, the streetcar turned and ran uphill to the Santa Barbara Mission.

By hopping on the streetcar at the nearby stop, Ella Hunter could either travel to the stores, restaurants, and theaters downtown, or ride up to the Mission.

The streetcars operated along this network until 1929.

The home at 223 East Victoria Street was built during a time period when Queen Anne–style cottages

THE GREAT HOUSE DETECTIVE

were gradually being replaced by Craftsman-style bungalows. Its large bay window in the living room and charming leafy cutouts in the trim under the eaves are features that hark back to the Victorian era.

by Betsy J. Green Pre-dating Sears Catalog homes and Pacific Ready-Cut homes, this house appears to have been based instead upon a design in a national pattern book or architectural magazine.

A photo of an almost identical house in Mississippi (pictured right), found in the book A Field Guide to American Houses, furthers that theory.

Pattern books have been around for centuries.

They contain drawings or photos of homes, along with floor plans. People could order the plans and give them to a local builder. Lumberyards often supplied these books in the hopes that customers would order the plans and then buy the materials for the house from the lumberyard.

Like many older homes, this house has some mysteries. A patch in the hardwood floor on the second story may indicate the position of a missing chimney. Chimneys in many local homes were toppled in the 1925 earthquake.

On the staircase leading up to the second story, the current owners discovered the outline of a doorway. The Mayes speculate that the second floor was originally accessed by a pull-down ladder and that the stairway was a later addition.

The home originally had a wraparound porch that is now enclosed. The 1907 Sanborn Fire Insurance Map shows the original footprint of the house. These

maps are available on the Gledhill Library pages of the Santa Barbara Historical Museum’s website and can be useful when researching the history of older homes.

Phil and Maureen Mayes are keeping close to home these days because of the COVID-19 virus, but they shared that they appreciate living just a few blocks from State Street. Fortunately, they are very good at keeping company with each other since they are the authors of How Two: Have a Successful Relationship.

When asked what they like about their home, Maureen stated, “Old houses have quirks just like I do, and this one has lots of little nooks and crannies so that it feels like there is always a new way to be in it.”

Phil added, “I like old houses. I think one reason that people are subconsciously taken with antiques and old things in general is precisely because antiques have existed unchanged for a long time and hence have a feeling of constancy, a comforting feeling in an uncertain, changing world.” This observation is certainly something we can all appreciate in these strange times.

Please do not disturb the residents of 223 East Victoria Street.

stakeholder pact seems imminent. Funds for the restoration will come from governments and big local businesses. One potential corporate source is the local geothermal industry.

by Dennis Allen energy-producing turbines.

Because the cost of solar and wind power has declined steadily and rapidly, adding new geothermal plants is no longer cost competitive.

It turns out that the Salton Sea’s hot brine carries large quantities of lithium alkali — a key component in making the batteries used in our phones, laptops, electric cars, and many other devices.

Combining the extraction of lithium with geothermal energy production suggests that both processes can be cost competitive and environmentally friendly. Almost all lithium used in the U.S. comes from from the nearby booming farms. Even so, abroad. The mining and processing of this it is shrinking and gaining in salinity and mineral, in almost all cases, has a huge carbon footprint, damages the local ecochemical concentrations.

able process. The geothermal brine is fully contained in pipes and vessels to produce a controlled flow of clean power around the clock—a great backup for intermittent solar and wind power. The geothermal reserve is gigantic and renewable, since the cooled brine is reinjected back into the earth’s depths, where it has time to heat up before being tapped again. This energy could be a significant contributor to California’s ambitious goal of 50 percent renewable energy by 2030.

Moreover, the lithium resources at the Salton Sea are epic in scale. If fully tapped, they could not just meet current global demand but exceed it for years into the future. Demand is expected to soar as electric devices and energy storage grow as central to the clean-energy economy.

A basic principle of sustainability is solving multiple challenges using one system or a single piece of equipment. The forthcoming Salton Sea agreement, combined with the likely expansion of geothermal power and green lithium extraction, promises to be such a solution, along with the restoration of this favorite spot of birds and wildlife.

FORBEARANCE: BE CAUTIOUS

INDEPENDENT REAL ESTATE

MAY 7, 2020

realestate.independent.com

ecause of the financial impacts from the efforts to stop the spread of the coronavirus, homeowners may not be able to afford their mortgage payments. An option that may be available is Forbearance.

16

BY STACI CAPLAN | 2020 PRESIDENT | SANTA BARBARA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS®

Forbearance is where you and your lender, or the loan “servicer” on behalf of the lender, agree to put your payments “on hold” for a specified amount of time. Usually there are no added fees or interest during the forbearance period. Be cautious when considering this option, as many servers will offer a payment plan which will increase the monthly payment when payments are resumed or will offer a loan modification to wrap the amount owed into a new loan. However, loan modifications are not possible for every homeowner. Many lenders have their own guidelines for loan modifications or forbearances. If your financial situation meets the guidelines, a loan modification is possible by documenting your financial hardship. If you do not meet the lender’s guidelines, a loan modification may not be possible. If you cannot pay off the forbearance and do not qualify for a loan modification, you may be at risk of losing your home if you are unable to resume payments.

Also, be cautious of scams counselors provided through falsely claiming that they can HUD. However, beware – you guarantee a loan modification need to find someone who is or forbearance or stop a forelegitimate, licensed, and qualiqualiclosure.
