519 East Emerson Avenue in Liberty Wells Historic District in Salt Lake City, Utah
- mentioned in Liberty Wells Historic District:
One hundred and forty-seven (147, or 8 percent) contributing buildings affiliated with this time period are present within the district. Most are single-family residential structures in variations of World War II Era Cottage and Ranch/Rambler forms. By the early 1950s, the small, World War II Era Cottage plan was extended, making it longer, and cross-gables and cross-gable bays were added to create early versions of the Ranch house form. As time progressed, the plan was extended even further and took on the trappings of the more typical tract house version of the Ranch/Rambler form established in California by Clifford May. A good example of post-war World War II Era Cottages in Wells can be seen in the 1950 residence at 519 East Emerson Avenue, while a good example of the tract house version of the Ranch/Rambler form can be seen in the 1955 house at 1636 South 200 East. Similar characteristics are seen in duplexes of the period, such as the 1948 property at 223-225 East Westminster Avenue.
