The Glendale Historical Society recognized those who have made strides
in preserving the treasured past of the city during a summer meeting
Aug. 18 at the Alex Theatre. President Greg Grammer presented the
awards.
The Armenian Consulate in Los Angeles, Seeley's Building and four
historic districts received preservation awards while Society Immediate
Past President John LoCascio received an award for his accomplishments
made during his three-year term. LoCascio played a major role in
Glendale's adoption of its Historic District Overlay Zone Ordinance,
which established the process for the creation of historic districts.
The award to the Consulate General of the Republic of Armenia in Los
Angeles recognized outstanding achievement in historic preservation
for architecturally sensitive additions and good stewardship of
its 1934 Spanish Colonial Revival building at 346 N. Central Ave.,
in Glendale. Consul General Grigor Hovhannissian accepted the award.
George Seeley Jr. received an award for the outstanding rehabilitation
work at the historic Seeley's Furniture Building. Awards were also
given to each of the four Historic District Overlay Zones established
in Glendale in the past several years: Royal Boulevard Historic
District, Cottage Grove Historic District, Ard Eevin Highlands Historic
District and Rossmoyne Historic District.
