It was built in 1901 for Julian Waybur and designed by Ernest Albert Coxhead.","why_significant":"The nomination argues the house is the work of master architect Ernest Coxhead and an outstanding example of how he combined the American Shingle Style with experimental European Revival elements. Its flat unpainted shingle wall anticipates later Modern work, and a stepped balcony mirrors the interior stair. It is also described as one of Coxhead's most intact and identifiable Shingle Style residences, and it is significant at the local level under Criterion C.","narrative":"Built in 1901 near the southeast corner of the Presidio in San Francisco, this three-story wood-frame house at 3232 Pacific Avenue was designed by Ernest Coxhead for Julian Waybur, a music teacher and advocate for music in the community. It sits on a narrow wedge-shaped block beside the Presidio wall, and its rear rooms cantilever over that wall. The flat south front is covered in unpainted wood shingles and has a small entry under an oversized broken pediment. A balcony above steps downward to echo the interior staircase. Inside, a winding redwood-paneled stair connects rooms that span the width of the house, including a living room and a piano room used for teaching. Kitchens and bathrooms have been updated, but the main rooms keep their original layout and unpainted woodwork. The house was listed for its architecture, as a well-preserved example of Coxhead's blend of Shingle Style and Classical details, with a period of significance of 1901.","period_of_significance":"1901","architect_builder":"Coxhead, Ernest Albert","architectural_style":"Late Victorian / Shingle Style","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Described as in excellent condition with few alterations and high integrity; still used as a single dwelling.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:29.692934-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_CA/11000143.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/11000143/cf45e29c59-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/11000143/cf45e29c59-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Sanfranman59","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Julian_Waybur_House,_3232_Pacific_Ave.,_San_Francisco,_CA_6-12-2011_4-18-11_PM.JPG\" rel=\"noopener\">Sanfranman59</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Julian_Waybur_House,_3232_Pacific_Ave.,_San_Francisco,_CA_6-12-2011_4-18-11_PM.JPG"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/123861355","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q133464828"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/california/san-francisco/waybur-julian-house-11000143/"}
