NOTIFICATION OF INTENT TO COMPLY WITH SENATE BILL 1383
REGULATIONS
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Office of Sustainability
SUMMARY:
The City Council is requested to adopt a resolution in support of the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (“CalRecycle”) Notification of Intent to Comply with Senate Bill 1383 Regulations.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolution No. _____, “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, AUTHORIZING SUBMITTAL OF A NOTIFICATION OF INTENT TO COMPLY WITH SENATE BILL 1383 REGULATIONS.”
BACKGROUND:
In September 2016, Governor Brown set methane emissions reduction targets for California (SB 1383 Lara, Chapter 395, Statues of 2016) in a statewide effort to reduce emissions of short-lived climate pollutants. Many of these emissions come from landfilled food and green waste, which is why the law is primarily focused on diver ting organic materials from landfills. Through increased recovery of food, green waste, and edible food, the State must:
• Reduce organic waste disposal 50% by 2020 and 75% by 2025; and • Rescue at least 20% currently disposed surplus food by 2025 for human consumption.
Beginning on January 1, 2022, SB 1383 requires every jurisdiction to provide organic waste collection services to all residents and businesses. As jurisdictions are preparing Item 1I - 1

Resolution Authorizing the Submittal of a Notification of Intent to Comply with SB 1383
to implement the law, many local governments are facing challenges due to the COVID- 19 pandemic. In response, Governor Newsom signed SB 619 (Laird, Chapter 508, Statutes of 2021) into law to support local governments as they design and implement successful organic waste recycling programs throughout the state. The law authorizes CalRecycle to waive civil penalties if a jurisdiction submits a Notification of Intent to Comply for some or all of the regulatory requirements and successfully implements a plan to correct their violations.
The City’s hauler, Palm Springs Disposal Services (PSDS) , has placed orders and is awaiting the delivery of new equipment such as trucks and carts to collect organic waste under SB 1383 requirements . Currently, approximately 25% of Palm Springs residents have a green cart for collection of green yard waste. Once residential organic waste collection begins, residents will be instructed to bag their food waste in plastic bags and place their bagged food waste into their green carts. Until the new equipment is received, 75% of Palm Springs residents will not have an organic waste cart to collect green yard waste or food waste. PSDS will begin residential organic waste collection once all residents have received a green cart which will likely occur by October 1, 2022.
The State is allowing jurisdictions that are unable to fully implement the regulations due to the COVID-19 pandemic to submit to CalRecycle a Notification of Intent to Comply by March 1, 2022. Due to the delayed implementation date in Palm Springs of October 1, 2022, a Notificat ion of Intent to Comply is being submitted to CalRecycle to avoid administrative civil penalties.
The SB 1383 enforcement structure allows CalRecycle to focus on compliance assistance first and dedicate enforcement efforts to serious offenders. The regula tions allow for flexibility and deadline extensions in some instances when there are extenuating circumstances causing compliance issues despite a jurisdiction’s substantial efforts, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and natural disasters.
The enforcement process is an escalating process, and the timelines are not triggered until a Notice of Violation is issued.
• CalRecycle has discretion to address compliance issues with a jurisdiction through compliance evaluations prior to moving to enforcement proceedings. • CalRecycle will consider the totality of circumstances surrounding a jurisdiction’s compliance prior to issuing NOVs (Notice of Violation). • CalRecycle has discretion to issue NOVs and, depending on circumstances, not seek penalties.
If CalRecycle takes e nforcement action, it can consider extenuating circumstances as well as substantial efforts made by a jurisdiction and place the entity on a Corrective Action Plan. CalRecycle has enforcement discretion to allow for a longer timeline for compliance.
Item 1I - 2
City Council Staff Report

Resolution Authorizing the Submittal of a Notification of Intent to Comply with SB 1383
The regulations allow for extended compliance timelines (under certain circumstances), giving jurisdictions additional flexibility to come into compliance before penalties are issued.
CalRecycle shall impose penalties administratively in accordance with Section 18997.3 of the code. Penalties, except for violations of the recovered organic waste product procurement requirements in Section 18993.1, are as follows.
• Minor violation $500 to $4,000 per violation per day
• Moderate violation $4,000 to $7,500 per violation per day • Major violation $7,500 to $10,000 per violation per day
SB 619 authorizes CalRecycle to issue a C orrective Action Plan for any jurisdiction with an approved Notification of Intent to Comply even if the jurisdiction has not provided sufficient funding, provided adequate staff, or adopted an enforcement ordinance. Upon an approved notification, a jurisdiction may be eligible for both of the following: 1) Administrative civil penalty relief for the 2022 calendar year pursuant to 14 CCR section 42652.5(d); and 2) A corrective action plan pursuant to 14 CCR Section 18996.2.
CalRecycle will waive administrative civil penalties for the 2022 calendar year for violation(s) disclosed in a jurisdiction’s approved Notification of Intent to Comply , if the jurisdiction implements the proposed action(s) to remedy the violation(s) in ac cordance with the schedule in the Notification of Intent to Comply.
Additionally, for violations commencing during the 2022 calendar year and continuing into the 2023 calendar year, administrative civil penalties will begin accruing starting January 1, 2023, but, if CalRecycle exercises its discretion to put a jurisdiction on a C orrective Action Plan, any penalties may be waived upon a determination of full compliance with the terms of the Corrective Action Plan (see 14 CCR section 18996.2).
FISCAL ANALYSIS
There is no fiscal impact for submitting the Notification of Intent to Comply.

2. A detailed explanation of the reasons why the jurisdiction is unable to comply, supported by documentation, if applicable.
The City has already adopted its SB 1383 enforceable ordinance. Currently, some residential customers have a green container for green waste (yard waste). However, the City's hauler, Palm Springs Disposal Service (PSDS), is awairing on the on the delivery of new equipment such as trucks and carts to collect organic waste. Until that new equipment is received, residents that do receive a green cart can only place green yard (no food waste) in the containers until PSDS notifies residential customers that it will begin accepting organic waste in the green carts; which will likely occur on October 1, 2022. The City has prepared information for customers regarding this update.
City is currently working with PSDS to amend its franchise agreement and adopt new organic waste collection rates. The rate increases will be subject to a Prop. 218 hearing and those procedural requirements.

3. A description of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on compliance.
While the City and PSDS have had an extensive number of meetings in 2021 to rework its entire franchise agreement, staffing turnover during 2021 have delayed the adoption of the franchise agreement. In addition, the City Council approved rate adjustments to its solid waste collection services (not including SB 1383 programs) that will be collected through June 30, 2022. City residents and businesses have been financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and this has made it challenging to introduce new collection services and increased rates when residents and businesses just approved an increase in 2021 and may be struggling to make ends meet. It is possible that the backlog in trucks and carts for organic waste collection services may be due to impacts from COVID-19.
4. Provide a description of the proposed actions the jurisdiction will take to remedy the violations with a proposed schedule for completing each action. The proposed actions shall be tailored to remedy the violations in a timely manner. See optional format below.
As mentioned above, the City is considering an amended and reinstated franchise agreement, which will take time by City staff and PSDS to prepare, review and present to the City Council.
PSDS will prepare a rate proposal and City staff would need time to review and evaluate the rate proposal. City staff will present the information to Council before sending the Prop. 218 notice to property owners and tenants. City staff, in conjunction with legal counsel, would need to prepare a Prop. 218 notice, and coordinate printing and mailing of the notices. Then, the City would work to educate solid waste customers about changes in solid waste collection services and new rates that will take effect.

Award City Project 21-18 – 2021 Sewer Collection System Repairs
BACKGROUND:
On June 10, 2021, the City Council approved the plans, specifications, and engineer’s estimate for the Project and authorized Staff to advertise and solicit bids. A copy of the staff report is included as Attachment B.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
On June 15, 2021, Staff advertised the Project to plan room s 1, and through a new
procurement program, PlanetBids™, to allow the submission of bids electronically. On June 16 , 2021, Staff advertised the Project for bids in T he Desert Sun. The contract documents were provided free of charge to prospective bidders.
On July 20, 2021 at 3:00 p.m., the Engineering Division received two bids through PlanetBids™ from the following contractors:
Company Location Bid Amount
Tunnelworks Services Inc. Whittier, CA $514,818
Southwest Pipeline & Trenchless Corporation Torrance, CA $533,553
Tunnelworks Services Inc. submitted the lowest responsive, responsible bid in the amount of $514,818. The engineer’s estimate for the Project as reported to the City Council on June 10, 2021 was $450,000. Costs are significantly higher than the estimate reflecting the current shortage of construction materials.
Local Business Preference Compliance
Section 7.09.030 of the Palm Springs Municipal Code (“PSMC”), “Local Business Preference Program”, requires prime contractors to use good faith efforts to sub-contract the supply of materials and equipment to local business enterprises and to sub- contract services to businesses whose work force resides within the Coachella Valley.
Tunnelworks Services Inc. is not considered a local business but has demonstrated sufficient evidence of good faith efforts to subcontract the supply of materials and labor to local businesses.
Public Works Contractor Registration Law (SB 854)
Under California Labor Code Section 1771.1, as amended by Senate Bill (SB) 854 (2014), unless registered with the State of California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR), a contractor may not bid, nor be listed as a subcontractor, for any bid proposal submitted
1 A Plan Room is a “library” where construction professionals may view bidding documents (blueprints and specifications) for projects seeking price estimates for specific construction products or services. There are 10 various plan rooms in southern California where the City submits its bid documents to ensure all contractors within the area are aware of the bid solicitation. 1Y-2

for public works projects on or after March 1, 2015. Similarly, a public entity cannot award a public works contract to a non- registered contractor, effective April 1, 2015. Staff has reviewed the DIR’s contractor registration database and has confirmed that Tunnelworks Services Inc. and their listed subcontractors are registered with the DIR and are appropriately licensed.
Bid Analysis
Staff reviewed all bid documents submitted by the apparent low bidder and determined that Tunnelworks Servi ces Inc. complies with the instructions to bidders and has submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid. Staff recommends that the City Council approve the bid submitted by Tunnelworks Services Inc. A construction agreement is included as Attachment C.
Construction Management & Inspection
On November 4, 2015, the City Council approved a Wastewater Services Agreement (“Agreement”) with Veolia Water West Operating Services, Inc. for the operation and maintenance of the City’s sewer collection system and the wastewater treatment plant. In accordance with Section 5.3, “Capital Projects” of the Agreement, Veolia recommended the City authorize a “Desirable Capital Project” for the 20 21 Sewer Collection System Repairs Project. On February 25, 2020, the City authorized Veolia to proceed with the preparation of the plans and specifications for the Project. Veolia has submitted a proposal for construction management and inspection services for the Project. A copy of the proposal is included as Attachment D. Based on Veolia’s knowledge of the WWTP and operations, Staff recommends that Veolia’s proposal is accepted for construction management and inspection services.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
:
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines Section 15301 “Existing Facilities”, Class 1 projects consist of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. Therefore, Staff has determined that the 2021 Sewer Collection System Repairs, City Project No. 21-18, is considered categorically exempt from CEQA.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Sufficient funds are budgeted and available in the Wastewater Fund. No General Fund or Measure J Capital Funds are required for capital projects direct ly related to the City’s WWTP or sanitary sewer collection system.

Item 1K - 1
City Council Staff Report
February 24, 2022 -- Page 2
A5855 – Amendment No. 2, Airport Advertising Concession Agreement Extension
In 2020, a two-year extension was granted to Lamar Airport Advertising through Amendment No. 1, approved by City Council at their March 19, 2020, meeting. A key justification for the extension was that the airport terminal expansion underway and the anticipated design of a new Consolidated Car Rental (CONRAC) facility which would provide new advertising venues, thus rendering a new RFP ill-timed.
The terms of Amendment No. 1 included a $200,000 program investment for equipment maintenance and capital improvements , and payment to the airport of 50% of gross revenues, and 55% when revenues exceed $800,000.
As a result of the drop in passenger counts due to C OVID-19, the Minimum Annual Guarantee (MAG) was first re duced in April 2020 a ccording to Article 5.01 of the Agreement, and subsequently waived.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The total enplanements and deplanements for calendar year 2021 reached 2,092,943, or 16% higher than in CY 2013, t he MAG benchmark year designated in the original agreement. Furthermore, since June 2021, passenger traffic has surpassed 2019 totals for seven consecutive months and Airport staff anticipates this trend to continue as air service to PSP has increased.
Lamar’s sales have augmented in 2021 and Airport staff considers this is an adequate time to reinstate the MAG as of April 1, 2022, for the remainder of the extension period designated under Amendment No. 2.
Agreement No. 1 covering the period of April 1, 2020, to March 31, 2022, included Lamar’s responsibility to invest $200,000 for capital improvements . To date, this obligation remains partially unfulfilled, and Airport staff wishes to include the request that the remainder of this sum be invested during the term of Amendment No. 2. This one- year extension period will allow operations to continue while staff evaluates the need for a new Request for Proposal for City Council’s approval.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Airport’s advertising revenue reached $335,422.39 in 2021 and Lamar expects sales for the remainder of 2022 and 2023 to continue increasing.

OF CITY COUNCIL BOUNDARIES , ADOPTION OF A DISTRICT
BOUNDARIES MAP, AND INTRODUCTION OF AN ORDINANCE
ADJUSTING ELECTION DISTRICT BOUNDARIES AS REQUIRED BY
ELECTIONS CODE SECTION 21601 ET SEQ
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Anthony J. Mejia, City Clerk
SUMMARY:
On February 10, 2022, the City Council narrowed its focus to Map Option J and requested staff evaluate additional modifications as directed. Staff has developed two additional maps consistent with the City Council’s input , and their key differences are highlighted below:
• Under Map Option K, the District 3 boundar y meets District 5 at Alejo Road and N. Palm Canyon Drive.
• Alternatively, Map Option L extends the District 3 boundary to W. Tahquitz Canyon Way and N. Palm Canyon Drive, ensuring that the Old Las Palmas neighborhood is not split between two districts.
• The overall impact is a population deviation level of 6.92% under Map Option K or
7.55% under Map Option L.
Both map options are within the 10% population deviation permitted by law and maintain District 1 as a majority/minority district. Click here to access the online mapping tool
containing Map Options K and L.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Conduct a public hearing to receive public input on district boundaries.
2. Select Map Option K or L for approval and introduce an Ordinance entitled “ AN
ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS AMENDING PALM SPRINGS MUNICIPAL CODE SECTION 2.02.005(B)
REGARDING BY -DISTRICT ELECTIONS, ADJUSTING THE BOUNDARIES OF
CITY COUNCIL ELECTION DISTRICTS AND CONFIRMING SUCH REVISED COUNCIL DISTRICT BOUNDARIES, AS REFLECTED IN THE ATTACHED MAP.” Item 2A - 1
BACKGROUND:
Every ten years, cities with by -district election systems must use new census data to review and, if needed, redraw district lines to reflect how local populations have changed.
This process, called redistricting, ensures all districts have a nearly equal population. The redistricting process for the City of Palm Springs must be completed by April 17, 2022.
On December 9, 2021, the City Council adopted the following Statement of Principles to guide the redistricting process:
• Goals:
o Maximize the goals of the CVRA, including civil rights, equality, and inclusion. o Prioritize the creation of majority/minority districts. o To the extent practical, keep organized neighborhoods intact. o Maintain the principle that the best interest of the City as a whole remains the first responsibility of all elected officials.
• Process:
o Encourage and work through communication platforms to obtain participation from as many residents and stakeholders as possible in the process.
As the FAIR MAPS Act required, the City Council conducted three public hearings on November 4 and December 9, 2021, and February 10, 2022, to receive community input on district boundaries. On February 24, 2022, the City Council will conduct its fourth required public hearing and, if ready, may adopt a final District Map and introduce the necessary Ordinance. Throughout the redistricting process, the City’s consultant drafted eight (8) maps (Map Options A-E and J-L), and the public submitted four (4) maps ( Map Options F-I).
You may view all of the draft maps using our online mapping tool:

Item 2A - 2
Community Outreach Efforts:
To increase community awareness about the redistricting process, staff engaged in a robust community engagement campaign summarized below:
1. Citywide Mailer: In October 2021, staff caused a bilingual (English/Spanish) full-page mailer to be mailed to every residence within Palm Springs outlining the schedule of Public Hearings and Community Workshops. In addition, the flyer was available in English, Spanish, and Tagalog at City Hall, Library, and Community Centers.
2. Bus Shelters: Staff caused an advertisement on redistricting to be placed in every available bus shelter throughout the City.
3. Radio Advertisements: Staff caused English and Spanish radio advertisements to be placed in the local radio market, K-News and KUNA – La Ponderosa.
4. Channel 17, PSCTV: Staff caused notice of the redistricting process to be displayed in English, Spanish, and Tagalog on Channel 17, Spectrum.
5. Digital Media Campaign: Staff engaged in a digital media campaign utilizing polygon technology to ensure that such advertisements reached people within the City limits with a guarantee of 133,000 impressions per month.
6. Community Workshops: Staff coordinated Community Workshops between December 13-17, in each district, to review the redistricting process. However, the December 14 session in District 2 was canceled due to inclement weather.
7. Dedicated Website: A dedicated website, www.psdistricts.com , was established to
inform the community regarding upcoming meetings and to provide access to the online mapping tools.
ANALYSIS:
The City adopted its current district boundaries in 2018, based on 2010 census data as required by law. The districts must now be redrawn using the 2020 census data and in compliance with the FAIR MAPS Act, adopted by the California legislature as AB 849 and took effect January 1, 2020. One of the key requirements under the FAIR MAPS Act, and the federal Voting Rights Act, is that districts be population balanced. In addition, maps may not intentionally seek to dilute or minimize the minority vote, and if there is an ability to create majority/minority voting districts, the agency must strive to do so. At present, the population deviation between the least populated district to the most populated district, compared to the ideal population (1/5 of the total City population), is 12.135%. One of the goals of redistricting is to reduce total deviation to as close to zero as possible; however, the courts have ruled that a deviation of 10% or less is generally acceptable.
The purpose of this public hearing is to share proposed map options and receive feedback and direction on the maps presented. The maps are noted whether they were prepared by the consultant or submitted by the public . If the City Council is prepared to approve one of the draft maps at this hearing, it is recommended that the City Council introduce the attached Ordinance with the preferred map as directed.
Item 2A - 3
Map Options K and L
Following input from the City Council, two new maps are presented for City Council’s consideration. Map Option K is based on Map Option J with the following modifications:
1. Move the Desert Aids Project campus from District 3 to District 2 to avoid splitting the Rogers Ranch neighborhood.
2. Split a Sunmor neighborhood census block to move three residences from District 4 into District 1, ensuring all of the Sunmor neighborhood is within District 1.
3. Move the open space area west of the Old Las Palmas neighborhood from District 5 to District 3.
These changes are reflected in Map Option K, which exhibits a deviation of 6.92%.
In addition to the changes noted above, Map Option L also moves the commercial area in the Old Las Palmas neighborhood from Alejo Road, east of N. Palm Canyon Drive, and W. Tahquitz Canyon Way from District 5 to District 3. This map exhibits a total deviation of 7.55%. In addition, approximately 80 people will move election cycles, however, this group of people will move into an earlier election cycle.
All maps have been posted on the City’s dedicated redistricting website for a minimum of seven days, as required by the Fair Maps Act. The City Council and community are invited to comment on the proposed maps and/or suggest revisions at this hearing. The Council may also introduce the Ordinance approving the final map.

ORDINANCE NO. _______
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING PALM
SPRINGS MUNICIPAL CODE SECTION 2.02. 005(B)
REGARDING BY-DISTRICT ELECTIONS, ADJUSTING THE
BOUNDARIES OF CITY COUNCIL ELECTION DISTRICTS,
AND CONFIRMING SUCH REVISED COUNCIL DISTRICT
BOUNDARIES, AS REFLECTED IN THE ATTACHED MAP
City Attorney’s Summary
Starting with the November 2019 Municipal Election, the City Council has been elected by five (5) geographical election districts. This Ordinance amends Section 2.02.005(B) of Chapter 2.02 of the City’s Municipal Code adjusting the boundaries of the City’s five (5) City Council election districts to keep them “ substantially equal in population” based upon the 2020 United States Decennial Census, as required by Federal and State law.
WHEREAS, on December 19, 201 8, the City Council of the City of Palm Springs ("City Council") held a final public hearing on establishing C ouncil election district boundaries, received additional public input, and formally selected the voting district map, set forth in Ordinance No. 1971 which established the current Palm Springs City Council election districts codified at Palm Springs Municipal Code section 2.02.005(B), which have been utilized to date in City Council elections; and
WHEREAS, the United States Census Bureau is required by Article I, Section 2, of the United States Constitution to conduct an accurate count of the population every ten years; and
WHEREAS, California Elections Code § 2162 1 requires that following each decennial federal census, and using that census as a basis, the City Council shall adjust the boundaries of any or all of the Council election districts of the City so that the districts shall be substantially equal in population as required by the United States Constitution, California Constitution, and the Federal Voting Rights Act. In establishing the boundaries of the districts the Council must give consideration to the following factors in the following priority: (a) contiguity of districts, (b) respecting communities of interest, (c) drawing easily identifiable districts through use of natural or artificial boundaries and (d) compactness of territory in districts; and

SUBJECT: AN APPLICATION BY CHARLES AND PATRICIA STUMPF , OWNERS , FOR HISTORIC DESIGNATION OF “THE WILLIAM PURCELL
RESIDENCE” LOCATED AT 252 OCOTILLO DRIVE, (APN #508-292-013), CASE HSPB #141
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Planning Division
SUMMARY:
The owners are seeking historic designation of the William Purcell residence. The home was designed by Prairie School architect William Purcell and constructed in 1934. It is considered one of the earliest examples of Modern architecture in Palm Springs and the only known commission by Purcell in the Coachella Valley. If designated as a historic resource, the property would be subject to the regulations outlined in Section 8.05 of the Palm Springs Municipal Code.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Open the public hearing and receive public testimony.
2. Close the public hearing and adopt Resolution No. _____, “A RESOLUTION OF
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, DESIGNATING “THE WILLIAM PURCELL RESIDENCE” LOCATED AT 252 OCOTILLO DRIVE, AS CLASS 2 ( HISTORIC MERIT) HISTORIC RESOURCE HSPB #141, SUBJECT TO CONDITIONS (APN 508-292-913).”
BACKGROUND AND SETTING:
The attached historic resources report (“the report”), dated August 2021 was prepared by the owners and is the basis of the staff report.
Related Relevant City Actions by HSPB, Planning, Fire, Building, etc.
November, 2021 Site inspection by members of the HSPB.
December 7, 2021 HSPB voted unanimously to recommend the City Council grant Class 2 designation for the site.
Item 2B - 1
City Council Staff Report

Case HSPB 141
Ownership Status
1980 Purchase by the current owner.
The dwelling at 252 East Ocotillo Drive was designed in 1931 by Prairie School architect William Gray Purcell as an investment/rental property. It is a rare example in Palm Springs of Prairie style architecture and is recognized as one of the earliest residential Modernist structures in P alm Springs. The period of significance for the site is identified as “ The period between the Wars” (1917 – 1941).
ANALYSIS AND FINDINGS:
The board’s analysis of the application relative to the criteria for the designation of historic resources is detailed in the attached HSPB resolution and staff report dated December 7, 2021. The Board made findings in support of Class 2 (Historic Merit) designation based on the following criteria:
PSMC 8.05.070, (5,C,1,Part a). The site, structure, building or object exhibits exceptional historic significance and meets one or more of the criteria listed below:
(Criterion 2) The resource is associated with the lives of persons who made a meaningful contribution to national, state or local history;
(Criterion 3) The resource reflects or exemplifies a particular period of national, state or local history;
(Criterion 5) The resource presents the work of a master builder, designer, artist, or architect whose individual genius influenced his age, or that possesses high artistic value;
Although the home possesses good historic integrity, the Board concluded that design and material integrity was not sufficient to make affirmative findings relative to historic integrity pursuant to PSMC 8.05.070, (5,C,1,Part b); and thus, voted to recommend Class 2 (Historic Merit) status for the property.
CONCLUSION:
The HSPB found that the William Purcell residence meets the definition of a historic resource based on Criteria 2, 3, and 5 of the Palm Springs Historic Preservation Ordinance but lacks sufficient historic integrity to qualify as a Class 1 historic site, and thus their recommendation to City Council is to grant Class 2 (Historic Merit) designation of the property. The board’s findings are outlined in the attached draft City Council resolution.

THE CITY COUNICL OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS RESOLVES:
SECTION 1: FINDINGS – PART “A”, CRITERIA FOR HISTORIC RESOURCES.
Evaluation of the Application.
Pursuant to Municipal Code Section 8.05.070 (C,1,a), the HSPB shall evaluate the application and make findings in conformance with the following criteria:
Criteria for the Designation of Class 1 Historic Resources. A site, structure, building or object may be designated as a Class 1 historic resource, provided both of the following findings (“a” and “b”) are met:
Item 2B - 7
Resolution No. ___
February 24, 2022
a. The site, structure, building or object exhibits exceptional historic significance and meets one or more of the criteria listed below:
The Purcell residence exhibits exceptional historic significance because of its association with Prairie School architect William Gray Purcell and is noteworthy as one of the earliest examples of Modernist architecture in a residence in Palm Springs.
(Criterion 1) The resource is associated with events that have made a meaningful contribution to the nation, state or community;
The report does not list any events associated with the home that contributed to the nation, state or community. Thus, it does not qualify under Criterion 1.
(Criterion 2) The resource is associated with the lives of persons who made a meaningful contribution to national, state or local history;
The report discusses Purcell’s contribution to the American Prairie School of Ar chitecture.
Beginning early in his career after graduating with an architectural degree from Cornell University in 1903, Purcell developed a strong interest in establishing a progressive, uniquely American style of architecture, much along the lines of other notable architects from the period such as Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright. Most notably, during Purcell’s association with fellow architects George Elmslie and George Feick Jr, from the early 1900’s through 1920, they developed, refined and further articulated their theories on an organic, uniquely American style of architecture. Purcell & Elmslie became one of the most commissioned firms among the Prairie School architects at the time. Among their most notable works were a series of small-town banks designed and constructed throughout the Midwest. It was through both their commercial and institutional work that Purcell & Elmslie created a group of buildings that were direct statements about their beliefs in Organic Architecture; earning them a place in history on the development of a uniquely American style of architecture alongside Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Sullivan and others. For these reasons, the site qualifies as a historic resource under Criterion 2.
(Criterion 3) The resource reflects or exemplifies a particular period of national, state or local history;
As noted in the report and the accompanying DPR forms, the Purcell residence is one of the earliest residential structures in Palm Springs designed in the Modernist style of architecture.
The simple cubic geometry of the home, the absence of revival -style decorative features or elements, and visual emphasis on horizontality preceded what commonly is referred to as the Mid-century Modern” period by a decade.
Palm Springs, which enjoyed a period of significant growth and development between the wars became a place where property owners and developers were willing to “cast off” the conventional revivalist styles popular from the 1900’s through the 1920’s and experiment with new forms of architectural expression and design. Buildings such as the Oasis Hotel (1925), the Kocher Samson Building (1935) the Cork & Bottle Building (1936), and the Purcell Residence (1934) all represent the beginning of a period of transition in architectural taste that blossomed in the post- World War II period. For these reasons, the City Council concludes that the site qualifies as a Item 2B - 8
Resolution No. ___
February 24, 2022
historic resource under Criterion 3.
(Criterion 4) The resource embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period or method of construction;
The Purcell residence is constructed of concrete masonry units with accent panels comprised of horizontally placed tongue and groove wood boards and “battens” that create a strong horizontal appearance to the home. Most modest dwellings built in the thirties in Palm Springs were built of stucco over wood frame construction. The use of concrete block masonry units was not new to Palm Springs, since many commercial and institutional buildings were being built using board- formed poured-in-place concrete, however it was rather unusual to see concrete masonry units used in residential construction. In a letter from Purcell to Bailey dated February 11, 1934, Purcell writes,
“I lean a little toward masonry with the blocks showing on the inside behind the stove, sink, etc., as being more sanitary and more in the spirit of the cabin sense of this building which we wish to retain.
Thus it appears Purcell chose the method of construction using concrete masonry units both for its durability, aesthetics, and ease of maintenance and cleaning. Judging from the discussion of costs in the correspondence between Purcell and Bailey, the comparative cost of building in concrete versus wood was negligible enough that he chose the more durable concrete block material.
Although the Purcell residence is unique in its use of concrete masonry units for a residential structure, its construction method is not particularly distinctive or unique. Thus, the City Council finds that it is not eligible as a historic resource relative to Criterion 4.
(Criterion 5) The resource presents the work of a master builder, designer, artist, or architect whose individual genius influenced his age, or that possesses high artistic value;
William Gray Purcell is recognized as one of the most prominent architects in the early twentieth century who were instrumental in defining and developing what has become known as the American Organic or Prairie School of Architecture. His commissions done in collaboration with George Elmslie are recognized as notable examples of the Prairie School and can be found in more than twenty states.
Purcell’s career achievements qualify him as a “master architect”. Determining whether a particular architect or designer’s “genius influenced his age”; is a more difficult measure.
Certainly the collective body of architectural work categorized as being of the Prairie School has continued to influence architects and designers for decades. Purcell & Elmslie are r ecognized amongst the most prolific of the Prairie School architects, second only to Frank Lloyd Wright in the sheer number of commissions. Throughout his career, and especially during the last thirty years of his career, Purcell promoted his theories of an organic and “uniquely American” style of architecture. As principal contributing editor he authored over sixty articles to the architectural journal “Northwest Architect” espousing his philosophy and design theory. As such, the City Item 2B - 9
Resolution No. ___
February 24, 2022
Council finds that through his designs and writings, Purcell influenced other architects and peers and as such the Purcell residence can be deemed a notable example of the work of a master architect whose genius continues to influence other architects and designers.
(Criterion 6) The resource represents a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction, as used in evaluating applications for designation of historic districts, for parcels on which more than one entity exists; or
The report does not assert that the Purcell residence qualifies under Criterion 6.
(Criterion 7) The resource has yielded or may be likely to yield information important to national, state or local history or prehistory.
No information has been provided in the historic resources report on any pre-historic significance of the site.
SECTION 2: PART “B” ANALYSIS OF HISTORIC INTEGRITY.
Analysis of Integrity. (PSMC 8.05.070 (C,1,b). The site, structure, building or object retains one or more of the following aspects of integrity, as established in the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards: integrity of design, materials, workmanship, location, setting, feeling, or association.
The Purcell residence is evaluated in terms of its historic integrity as follows:
1. Location:
The Purcell residence remains in the same location that it was constructed, thus it retains integrity of location.
2. Design:
Some material changes to the exterior have occurred over time.
A. A unique tongue and groove horizontal board and batten siding was used in several parts of the home. The current owner reports this siding had been removed by a previous owner and plywood installed in its place. The current owner had stucco installed as a more weather-tight surface.
B. The exposed concrete masonry units have been covered in stucco on the outside and with drywall on the inside.
C. The height of the eave over the front door was raised slightly in the 1980’s.
D. The louvered eaves designed to bring in natural ventilation have been covered in stucco.
Although these modifications do not adversely impact the overall massing, they visually obscure the horizontally placed board and batten siding and the exposed masonry units. The City Council finds that these modifications impair the design integrity of the home. The Board would Item 2B - 10
Resolution No. ___
February 24, 2022
encourage current or future owners to remove the stucco cladding and restore the wood elements to improve the design integrity of the home.
3. Setting:
At the time of construction, the Purcell residence was one of the first homes built in the vicinity and the area was mostly open desert. Today the neighborhood is fully built out. Thus, integrity of setting has been lost.
4. Materials:
The changes noted above obscure the home’s simple wood and concrete block construction.
Although the basic material composition comprising the construction of the home remans, they have been covered with drywall and stucco. Removing the stucco and restoring the wood elements would enhance the material integrity of the home. The City Council finds that the buildings’ material integrity is impaired.
5. Workmanship:
The home is of average workmanship common for the era of the 1930’s and retains integrity of workmanship.
6. Feeling:
The Purcell residence retains its feeling as a modest home from the 1930’s.
7. Association:
The dwelling at 252 East Ocotillo Avenue is most notably associated with architect William Purcell. Those who are familiar with the work of Purcell will likely be able to recognize this association.
In summary, the home has a fair degree of historic integrity, however the City Council finds that it lacks sufficient integrity to qualify as a Class 1 (Landmark) historic site. Removing the stucco, restoring the wood siding and louvered eaves, and restoring the garage would improve the historic integrity of the home.
SECTION 3: DEFINING HISTORIC CHARACTERISTICS
In considering a recommendation for historic resource designation it is important to distinguish those physical elements that are original or from the period of significance that contribute to the resource’s historic significance from alterations, additions or features that were added at a later time that may be sympathetic to the original character, but which may create a false sense of historicity. Distinguishing original character -defining features from non- original elements aids the HSPB when it is tasked with evaluating future alterations to the historic resource.
Character-defining features of the home are as follows:
Item 2B - 11
Resolution No. ___
February 24, 2022
• Flat-roofed one-story structure with varying roof / parapet heights. • Emphasis on horizontality.
• Thin fascia profile, projecting eaves (originally exposed wood with ventilation louvers). • Varied cubic massing that steps up toward the center volume of the house. • Steel sash windows including corner windows.
• The low garden wall in the front yard, close to the house.
Non-contributing elements:
• The stucco exterior finish.
• The front windows of the garage (originally garage doors). • The wood front door.
• The raised eave above the front door.
• The additions on the back of the home from the 1980’s. • The landscape.
SECTION 4: ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
The proposed historic resource designation is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical changes to the environment, directly or indirectly.
SECTION 5: CONDITIONS THAT APPLY TO CLASS 2 HISTORIC SITES.
According to Section 8.05 of the Municipal Code, the following shall apply to a Class 2 Historic Resource:
1. It shall meet the definition of a Class 2 historic site as outlined in Municipal Code Section
8.05.020.
2. An archival file on the property shall be maintained by the City.
3. It may be qualified as ‘historic’ at the federal, state, and/or county level.
4. The structure/site may not be modified nor objects removed without following the procedures outlined in Municipal Code Section 8.05.110 “Demolition or Alteration of Class 1 and Class 2 Historic Resources – Certificate of Appropriateness”.
5. A marker explaining the historic nature of the site may be installed at the site in a location viewable from the public way.
6. Compliance with all rules and regulations for Historic Sites and Historic Districts under Chapter 8.05 of the Municipal Code shall be required.
7. The site shall not be further subdivided.
8. The City Clerk shall submit the Council Resolution to the County recorder for recordation within 90 days of the effective date of the Council’s resolution.

This letter is regarding "Historic Designation" for our home at 252 E Ocotillo Ave. Palm Springs, CA 92264. As of this year, 2021, our house is 88 years old. It is known as the "William Purcell House". A picture of it and information about the home is listed on Page 23 of "A Guide to Architecture in Southern California.
We bought this home in 1980 and moved into it in 1989. Throughout the years, we have been fortunate in finding out the history of this home and other homes architect Purcell has designed.
At the Palm Springs Woman's Club, I met guests from Minneapolis, a doctor and his wife. I asked them if they had visited the "Purcell House" in "Lake of the Isles" in Minneapolis. The lady said her brother had done his thesis at the University of Minnesota on William Purcell. We were introduced to her brother and he put us in touch with the archives at the University of Minnesota and they gave us a wealth of information on the architect William Purcell.
While in Minneapolis, we visited the home Mr. Purcell built for his family and it was lovely. He also built a unique house in Charles's hometown of Red Wing, Minnesota. This house is called "The Upside~Down House" (by neighbors) because the second story is wider and juts out over the narrower first story. Architect Purcell built this house in 1912 and designed the interior with special Frank Lloyd Wright style furniture.
We worked very hard restoring the "Purcell House" in our hometown of Palm Springs and certainly think it is worthy of historical recognition.
Sincerely,
~C4,3 {l,~

William
Gray
Purcell
(July
2, 1880
-
April
11,
1965)
was
a Prairie
School
architect
in
the
Midwestern
United
States.
He
partnered
with
Geor
ge
Grant
Elmslie,
and
briefly
with
Geor
ge
Feick.
The
firm
of
Purcell
&
Elmslie
produced
designs
for
buildings
in
twenty-two
states,
Australia,
and
China.
The
firm
had
offices
in
Minnea
polis,
Minnesota;
Chica

Illinois;

Early
life
and
education
Purcell
was
born
in
Wilmette,
Illinois
on
July
2,
1880
. [i]
His
parents,
Charles
A.
and
Anna
Cora
Purcell
lived
first
with
William
Cunningham
and
Catherine
Garns
Gray,
Anna's
parents,
in
Oak
Park,
Illinois.
Although
the
Purcells
eventually
moved
into
their
own
home,
except
for
brief
periods
the
young
boy
remained
with
his grandparents
over
the
next
five
years.
In
1886,
William
Gray
Purcell
began
living
permanently
with
them
at
his
own
request
.~
His
father
was
an
important
grain
trader,
and
his
grandfather
was
editor
of
The
Interior,
and
a writer
of
national
repute.
[i]
For
many
summers,
W.
C.
Gray
had
taken
fishing
vacations
on
the
peninsula
of
upper
Michigan.
In
1885,
however,
he
was
saddened
to
realize
the
extent
to
which
the
environment
had
been
despoiled
by
destructive
logging
and
mining
practices.
In
1886
Gray
arranged
the
purchase
of
three
square
miles
of
land
surrounding
an
island
on
a lake
in
northern
Wisconsin,
in
co-ownership
with
the
recently
wi
gowed
Nettie
Fowler
McCormick
, also
of
Chicago.
Evecy
following
summer
from
1887
until
his
death
in
1901,
Gray
brought
his
family,
friends,
and
associates
to
Island
Lake
Camp,
as
the
isolated
forest
enclave
came
to
be
called.
During
this
time
Purcell
became
skilled
as
a
photographer,
his
hobby
made
possible
by
the
newly
available
commercial
outfits
which
supplied
camera
, photographic
plates,
processing
chemicals
and
printing
papers
in
one
package
. Purcell
received
his
first
camera
from
W.
C.
Gray
in
1888,
a
Kodak
model
given
to
The Interior
office
just
before
public
release
of
th
e produ
ct.
21 When
Purcell
was
fifteen
, Frank
Llo
yd
Wri
ghtC
1l built
his
Oak
Park
studio
on
the
same
block
where
Charles
A. Purcell
lived,
not
far
from
the
Grays.
In
Chicago,
where
Purcell
went
frequently
to
visit
his
grandfather
at
The
Interior
offices,
the
work
of
Louis
Sullivan
continued
to
impress
the
young
architect-

to-be.
His
mind
was
already
made
up
to
pursue
the
study
of
the
building
arts
in
college
and,
following
his
graduation
from
Oak
Park
High
School
in
1899,
he
entered
the
School
of
Architecture
at
Cornell
University
in
Ithaca,
NY.~
Career After
graduation
from
Cornell
in
1903,
Purcell
returned
to
Oak
Park,
11linois.
Purcell
considered
applying
to
Frank
Lloyd
Wright
for
a
position
in
his
architectural
practice.
Instead,
Purcell
took
a
clerking
position
with
Ezra
E.
Roberts,
a stable
and
prosperous
architect
of
whom
Charles
A.
Purcell
thought
well.
During
a
dinner
party
in
Oak
Park, Purcell
met
George
Grant
Elmslie,
then
the
chief
draftsman
for
Louis
Sullivan.
The
two
men
liked
one
another
immediately,
not
least
because
of
their
shared
interest
in
progressive
architecture.
When
Purcell
complained
of
his
situation
with
Roberts,
Elmslie
offered
to
secure
Purcell
a position
in
the
Sullivan
office.
However,
there
was
not
a great
deal
of
work
to
be
done
in
the
office
. Purcell
spent
five
months
there,
from
August
to
December
1903.
In
1904,
Purcell
ventured
to
the
West
Coast
by
way
of
an
extended
journey
through
the
southwestern
United
States.
He
eventually
arrived
at
Los
Angeles
and
applied
for
work
at
the
office
of
M
yr
on
Hunt,
but
there
was
no
opening.
On
the
recommendation
of
those
with
whom
he
interviewed,
Purcell
left
southern
California
for
San
Francisco.
Hired
by
John
Galen
Howard,
Purcell
became
clerk
of
the
works
for
the
construction
of
California
Hall,
being
built
on
the
University
of
California
campus
at
Berkeley
. In
1905
Purcell
moved
farther
up
the
coast
to
Seattle, Washin
gton,
where
he
worked
for
several
months
in
the
office
of
A.
Warren
Gould.
Purcell's
father,
who
was
afraid
of
the
effects
of
the
region's
weather
on
the
health
of
his
son,
offered
to
send
him
on
a year-long
tour
of
Europe.
Accepting
the
offer,
Purcell
contacted
his
former
classmate,
Geor
ge Feick,
Jr.,
and
two
men
agreed
to
meet
in
New
York.
In
April,
1906
Purcell
and
Feick
were
greeted
upon
their
landing
at
Naples, Italy,
by
the
eruption
of
Mount
Vesuvius.
After
visiting
Florence
and
Venice,
they
traveled
across
Greece
to
Constantinople
and
by
June
had
returned
to
western
Europe.
Purcell
was
keen
to
seek
out
the
best
contemporary
design
and,
remembering
a suggestion
made
by
Elmslie
he
stopped
in
Holland
to
visit
the
architect
Hendrik
Petrus
Berla
ge. Berlage
received
him
warmly
and
the
two
established
a
long
-lasting
friendship.
Purcell
was
also
successful
in
his

During these years of success, personal events brought substantial changes to the lives of both Purcell and Elmslie. Profoundly affected by the death of his wife in 1912, Elmslie left Minneapolis in March 1913 and returned to Chicago where he opened a second Purcell, Feick & Elmslie office. George Feick did not completely share the intense dedication of Purcell and Elmslie to the new architecture, and in 1913 left Minneapolis to rejoin his father's business in Sandusky, Ohio. After the Woodbury County Courthouse was completed in 1918, the business of the firm entered a decline. Purcell requested the dissolution of the Purcell & Elmslie partnership in 1921.
Purcell moved to Portland, Oregon in November 1919 to join his cousin, Charles H. Purcell, in a bridge building company called the Pacific States Engineering Corporation (PSEC). After the dissolution of the firm of Purcell & Elmslie, Purcell marketed standardized plans through a variety of service firm names.
The Pacific States Engineering Corporation (PSEC) houses were a mainstay of Purcell's architectural practice during the 1920s. Purcell also became involved with the Architect's Small House Service Bureau (ASHSB,) and associated himself with other area architects in numerous residential designs in and around the Portland area. He also became increasingly active in professional, civic, and arts organizations.
In 1925 Purcell met James Van Evera Bailey, a young architect who was an integral participant in both the design and construction process for four houses built during the Portland years. The largest and final major commission that Purcell received was the Third Church of Christ Scientist, in Portland, completed in 1926.
Throughout the decade, Purcell had felt a progressive decline in his physical well-being and, finally seeking medical attention in 1930, was diagnosed as having advanced tuberculosis. He closed his architectural practice and moved to a sanatorium in Banning, California. Following successful lung surgery, Purcell retired to an estate in the foothills of Southern California, near Pasadena. He continued to develop and support the cause of American architecture for another thirty years, mostly through publishing many essays, consulting with architectural historians, and other writings.
Purcell turned to writing and began an articulation of his views on art and architecture that continued prolifically until his death. Two projects were of special importance to him. From the late 1930s to the mid 1950s, he developed a series of unpublished essays called "The Parabiographies" that were commission-by-commission accounts of experiences during his architectural practice. These pages, together with many manuscripts discussing Sullivan and the "function and form" thesis, were sent for reading to George Elmslie who often added his own annotations. From 1940 to 1955, Purcell was principal contributing editor to an architectural journal, Northwest Architect, to which he contributed more than sixty articles. [3]
During 1962-1963, Purcell had an architectural apprentice who would go on to become a significant American organic architect, Arthur Dyson. Dyson spent nearly a year in the Taliesin Fellowship prior to the death of Frank Lloyd Wright in 1959, before going to work for notable organic architect Bruce Goff, who gave Dyson a copy of a catalog from an exhibition about Purcell and Elmslie that took place in Minneapolis. Dyson sought out Purcell as a mentor. The two men spent their time together reviewing the records of Purcell and Elmslie and discussing the nature of architectural design. [4] After his death on April 11, 1965, he was buried in the Forest Home Cemetery, Forest Park, Illinois.Ifil Works

There are two houses built by William Gray Purcell for his personal residence in Minneapolis. The second was built in 1913 and called "Lake Place" by the Purcell family. Known now as the Edna S.
Purcell House, the house is maintained by the Minneapolis Institute of Arts and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
His "Maryhill" in Edina, Minnesota, is interesting because of the documentation of how it was created. It was designed by Purcell in correspondence with the future owners, Paul and Mary Carson, and the 600 pieces of their correspondence are in the University of Minnesota's Architectural Archives.
Not all of Purcell's work fits in the "Prairie School" category. Several of his houses in Portland's West Hills show how he adapted his ideas Purcell's second house, originally
named "Lake Place"
to fit a more urban setting. A feature shared by one of those houses and Maryhill is a sleeping loft, but the Portland example also features a wooden carving of Nils on his goose flying out over the living room.
In the 1920s, Purcell moved to the Pacific Northwest where he designed a number of "cotswald" style homes.
In 1922, Purcell designed the Louis and Elizabeth Woerner House in the Alameda District of Portland's Eastside. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 2004.Ifil.
In the 1930s Purcell moved to Pasadena, California. In Pasadena, Purcell first built Modeme work. His only known surviving Modeme building is his own vacation home in Palm Springs. Purcell after WW2 seems to have fully embraced modernism and some five homes designed by him from 1945 to 1965 survive in Pasadena in various levels of modification.
The William Gary Purcell papers were donated by the estate to the Northwest Architectural Archives 1965. The collection contains drawings, including plans, elevations and sections, for much of the firm's work, together with renderings, sketches, photographs and correspondence. Letters, photographs and books from Purcell's maternal grandfather (William Cunningham Gray, 1830-1901) form part of the collection. Also present in the papers are manuscripts, typescripts, and clippings.
Achievements and publications
Purcell was elected a Fellow in the American Institute of Architects in 1963.
Purcell is the author of the 1967 book, St. Croix Trail Country: Recollections of Wisconsin, a memoir of his youth spent in the Wisconsin lake country.

BANNING, 1931-1935
Alter diagnosis of his disease, Purcell adopted a Strictly enforced regimen of bed rest. He entered a series of sanatoriums, finally settling In 1931 at the Pottenger facility In Banning, California. Stricken with great physical discomfort and severely rmlted strength, Purcell began a four-year period of w,thdrawal llnd Introspection marked by heavy emotional losses and the Interruption or end of many significant connections to the past. Three deaths particularly affected him. His fether died in 1931, leaving a substentlal trust fund. Relieved of any further llnanclal anxieties, Purcell was also able to ald friends who were suffering due to the Gre11t Depression. During that same year, h s son Douglas fell mortally ill with meningitis. His grandmother Catherine Gray, who had remained fn Portland, died In 1934. Her passing especially saddened Purcell, who had relied on her moral and emotional support for more than fifty years.

The rest of his family life effectively ended when longtfme differences with his wife Edna S. Purcell were finally acknowledged to be irreconcilable and divorce proceedings begun. Settlement negotiations were bitter and lasted over the entire four years of his stay at Banning. The proposals and counter-proposals continued to consume his limited energies, and the disputes of the separation process also contributed to the temporary alienation from Purcell of his son James, who served as a captain in the Merchant Marine, A few personal relationships that originated in the Portland decade helped to sustain Purcell through these difficult years. Douglas Donaldson drove from Los Angeles for weekend visits, and Purcell remembered his friends at the Oregon Society of Artists by funding an exhibition contest. James Van Evera Bailey, who could not find work In the Pacific Northwest, arrived in California to construct houses built by Purcell as guest cottages or rental properties In Banning and nearby Palm Springs. Even in his incapacitated state, Purcell kept alive his interest in the practkal problems of architecture by developing his understanding of structural techniques. https ://organica.orQ/pewgp8.htm

In the GUEST HOUSE built near the Banning sanatorium, Purcell confronted an environment the opposite of that for which he had been accustomed to design. The grueling desert sun presented challenges in cooling during the day that were solved by opening the dead air space of an attic into the room and using the properties of wood and building papers to insulate the roof. Cool air circulation was encouraged through the length of a small reflecting pool that entered the house through the wall and terminated In a fountain. The board-and-batten siding of the house and the large glass doors of a detached service building were reminiscent of earlier Purcell and Bailey designs.

The design of a RENTAL PROPERTY in Palm Springs featured a horizontal brick-and-board wall treatment that emphasized the flat character of the desert landscape. Eaves extending several feet beyond the walls contained baffled louvres that aided even the slightest breeze to enter the interior. The house also had an attached garage. Several similar designs were sketched for an Intended group of speculative houses, and Bailey applied the same principles to other small houses in an architectural practice that he carried on In the area.
Although Purcell continued to contribute occasional pieces for publication, his writings became limited to a carefully observed ration of correspondence and terse daily dairy entries as these years progressed. In the small, leather pocketbooks in which he wrote, Purcell kept a meticulous record of the progress of his disease, notes on the affairs of visitors, and the efforts to obtain his divorce.
For a man given to an active life as Purcell had always been, the Banning years of forced rest were psychologically depressing. ... ,~ ....... _ .. ~_,

c;lrca 1932
To keep himself occupied, Purcell began to decorate letters written to Catherine Gray and her companion Annie Zlegler with watercolor sketches showing the lives of a group of cats that wandered in and out of his room. When he could go outside, he developed his technique by sketching flowers and the desert vegetation. As his stay at the sanatorium grew longer and the course of his Illness showed a recurring pattern, the watercolor sketches became very small, moody, and abstract while accumulating in great numbers.
One redeeming event to come from his time in the sanatorium was meeting Cecily OBrien, an Englishwoman who actually suffered from a misdiagnosed case of emphysema. On those days when the doctor permitted a hundred-foot walk, Purcell went down the hall to read or eat lunch with Cecily. When possible, they shared time sitting in the sanatorium gardens. Shortly after his divorce from Edna Purcell became final In late 1935, Cecily O'Brien and Purcell married. Following a risky operation that restored Purcell to somewhat better health, the couple left the desert for a country estate in the Pasadena foothills near Los Angeles.

William Gray Purcell
circa 1920s
PORTLAND, 1920•1930
In 1919 Purcell chose a course of action that he hoped would renew the independence and freedom of thought he felt was lost during his time with the Alexander Brothers companies in Philadelphia. As in the years of his apprenticeship, his mind turned to the fresh, vigorous potential of the Pacific Northwest. The rich forests and rushing rivers were a potent reminder of his inspiring chUdhood experiences at Island Lake, Wisconsin, and the character of life In the region still relied on the free, pioneering spirit through which Purcell had first come to know his philosophical calling.
Leaving the East Coast In November, Purcell met with a fortunate coincidence upon his arrival in Portland, Oregon. His old school teacher, Helen E. Starrett, had left Oak Park years before and settled In Portland. A nationally prominent feminist leader, Starrett was on her way to Washington, O.C., to lobby for women's suffrage at a special Congressional session called by President Woodrow Wilson, She gladly rented her house to Purcell, asking only that he leave the car and the cook In the same condition in which he had found them. Getting settled, he sent for his family, including Catherine Gray and her companion Annie Ziegler who took rooms in the newly built Mallory Hotel.
At first, Purcell did not intend to continue In architectural practice. His original purpose in coming west was to join his cousin, Charles H. Purcell, in a bridge building company called the Pacific States Engineering Corporation (PSEC). A civil engineer who later designed the Oakland Bay Bridge, Charles H. Purcell had lived in Oak Park during his adolescence with Charles A. Purcell, his uncle, who subsequently financed his college education. With a loan from Charles A. Purcell, an office was opened and an accounting system started for the new partnership in 1919. Charles H. Purcell remained involved in government road buildlng projects that prevented him from fully participating in the venture.
Looking for professional work to occupy himself in the meantime, William Gray Purcell found his Interest naturally drawn back to architectural design. The Purcell & Elmslie partnership still existed, and the firm received credit for several works done during the first year that Purcell lived In Portland. Two were unbuilt projects. George Elmslie drew preHmlnary sketches for a resort hotel on the Hood River under a contact initially made by Charles H. Purcell, but the scheme did not proceed beyond general discussions. Elmslie also contributed to a speculative apartment building proposed for the Portland area that was not constructed for lack of investment capital.
A bridge and a personal residence for Purcell attributed to Purcell & Elmslie were built. Under the direction of Charles H. Purcell, the U. S. Bureau of Public Roads had begun the design of a bridge to cross a small river called Wolf Creek, and William Purcell commented to his partner that the concrete building material was to be molded into historically derived masonry forms that he felt would be neither efficient or artistic. Purcell was asked to assist in the bridge design and wrote about the project to Elmslie, who replied that such a structure was essentially architecture cast from point to point through the air. These discussions led Purcelt to contribute drawings for portions of the bridge that created a more dynamic effect through use of the building material. https://oraanica.orafpewap7 .htm 111'

The WILLIAM GRAY PuaceLL RESIDENCE in Portland, known as "Georgian Place" after the street where it was built in 1920, was a project in that the familiar productive interchange between Purcell and Elmslie came into play for the last time, The building site was once the crest of a steep hillside and had a beautiful westward view across six mlles of forested valley, An unusually precipitous grade on the site presented tremendous construction difficulties. The design of the house evolved over several months, with Elmslie sending studies from ChTcago that Purcell revised from his immediate knowledge of the location. Elmslie sought to Integrate the hillside atmosphere into the living arrangements. The window placement was a key part in the composition because of the dramatic vista: entrances, hallways, and the stairwell were aligned with casement openings to create the sense of dwelling among the treetops, The effect was heightened through the addition of a balcony on the north side of the house, and the positioning of the garage on the right where a mature tree was left in place to create a miniature circular driveway. In a stroke of humor, a bird house was attached to the chimney.
Beyond these few commissions little work was in prospect for Purcell during his first years in Oregon, and he turned to a variety of architectural ventures that attempted to market the services of architects to builders who would not ordinarily consider them.
Several related business schemes were intended to gain architectural work for the Purcell & Elmslie partnership without using the name of the firm, in order keep potential clients from thinking architect designed work would be too costly, Advertisements for standardized plans for banks and small houses were placed In various periodicals under company names like the Cunningham Gray Architectural Service or the Builder's Plan Service. To give the impression of established and flourishing businesses, these notices usually listed the addresses for all three architectural offices one maintained in Minneapolis by Frederick A. Strauel, in Chicago by Elmslie, and in Portland by Purcell. One such advertisement that appeared in Banker's Monthly, a journal to which Elmslie occasionally contributed articles on functional bank design, resulted in a commission for the First National Bank of Adams, Minnesota.
With a design typical in character of earlier small town banks by Purcell & Elmslie, the plans for the Adams bank carried the company title of the Builder's Document Service,
Beyond one bank and a few other, fruitless inquiries, the effort to generate new business was a failure. Citing poor economic circumstances, Purcell formally requested that the firm be dissolved In 1921. ElmsUe, who had no financial reserves, was deeply offended and observed that his own contributions to the office had often been worth more than the salary he had received. Besides, he felt that the end of the partnership would be an admission of defeat in the architectural struggle they had waged so earnestly.
After some argumentative exchange of correspondence about the distribution of minor office assets when the Chicago office was closed, the two men eventually reasserted their friendship.

As he did with his other new companies, Purcell created the appearance of prosperity for the Pacific States Engineering Corporation (PSEC) by listing a putative office in Los Angeles, During the early 1920s, he met Douglas Donaldson, a color theorist and art Instructor whose Graphical Designs were In much the same organic spirit as the advertising work Purcell had done for Alexander Brothers. The two men shared a common view of art as a process of spiritual information, and Purcell arranged for his friend to give art classes in Oregon. Donaldson reciprocated by serving as the Interior deslgn consultant for the PSEC, and allowed his name and studio address in Hollywood, California, to appear on the corporation stationery. https://organica.org/pewgp7.htm

PSEC SPICULAJIYI HOUSE
Since the planned participation of Charlea H, Purcell In the PSEC did not fully materlallze and only minor contultatlons came through the Don11ldson connection, the company became prlnclpally a developer of speculatlve resldentl11I propertlet. Although a few unbullt apartment proJectt were alto designed, the PSEC bulldlngs consisted mostly of •mall houses located In scattered groups throughout the southeast Portland area, These dwetungs were meant for people of llmlted means who wanted a higher quallty residence than w-normally avallable to them. They had the nme basic purpose as the many plans that were being offered through varlou national magazine advertlement• The PSEC houses were a mainstay of Purcell's architectural practice over the next ten years. Most sold for between seven and nine thousand dollars, and many represented experimental solutions to the speclal problems of the long rainy Pacific Northwest winters. For example, window frames served as the structure of the dormers and so doubled the area open to llght, as In the In the first rental property bullt In 1922 for Eleanor M. Carleton. Other houses of the same period tried new heating systems to Improve air circulation, while special shingling techniques and window casements were developed to reduce penetration by the weather. Because the houses were built along common lines within a limited budget using commercially available materials, lndlvldual variations were Introduced purposely to avoid similarity of appearance. Special requirements of unusually shaped lots also contributed to the functional evolution of their plans.

Purcell also showed his interest In providing readymade designs and a democratic accessibility to competent architectural services when he became Involved with the Architect's Small House Service Bureau (ASHSB}. A national organization of practicing architects endorsed by the American Institute of Architects, the ASHSB encouraged the building of good quallty small houses by offering professionally designed stock plans. The ASHSB divided the United States into regional divisions, with national headquarters in the same Minneapolis, Minnesota, bulldlng where former Purcell & Elmslle chief drafter Frederick A. Strauel continued to do extensive drafting for Purcell. For a time Purcell served as an officer In the northwestern division of the ASHSB that Included Oregon, and at least one of his small house plans was marketed through the organization.
SIDNEY BELL RESIDENCE; PRESENTAJlipN RENDERING
In numerous resldentlal designs of the Portland period Purcell carried on a free association with other architects. For example, Elmslie occasionally did sketches for the PSEC houses, although they tended to be too complex and uneconomical. Nearly all drafting for the Purcell projects In Portland was done by Frederick Strauel, who came to Oregon to work for a time during 1922. Strauel was also fully credited as associate architect with Purcell In a series of nine houses designed from 1928 to 1929 for Mlnneapolls developer H. M. Peterson. https://organica.org/pewgp 7 .htm

Purcell and Elmslie, Architects
In 1925 Purcell met lames Van Evera Bailey, a young architect who Introduced himself as the nephew of the plumber who had worked for Purcell & Elmslle thirteen years earlier on the c. I. Buxton residence In Owatonna, Minnesota, A warm relationship between the two men was quickly blossomed, and Bailey, who was working for Portland architect Otis J, Fitch, eventually became an associate architect with Purcell in many projects. In particular Bailey was an Integral participant In both the design and construction process for four houses built during the Portland years. While Purcell developed the schemes, Balley supervised the construction details for the Harry S, Bastian residence at Lake Oswego and the Sidney Bell residence next to the W. G. Purcell house In the hills above Portland, both built In 1927. A year later, the John w. Todd and w. H. Arnold residences In Vancouver, Washington, were Purcell designs fully handled by Balley, In the Todd and Arnold dwelllngs, together with the similarly conceived Wallace-Bradford residence, Purcell sought a more spiritual as well as economic expression of his functional Ideals by dlrectly exposing much of the structural bulldlng materials, and Balley showed a sound grasp of the objective by completing the work while Purcell was away on a tour of Europe.
THIRD CHURCH op CHRIST.
Sc11!NUU; loNGIIVPINAL
SECTION
The largest and final major commission that Purcell received was the Third Church of Christ, Scientist, in Portland. Built In 1926, the building as completed realized only part of his design, Based on Ideas that had been first considered In an earlier Christian Science project In Minneapolis, the planning provided for construction In phases and began with an Intended Sunday school auditorium to which would have been added a larger main reading room as the church membership required more space. Although in the Third Church of Christ, Scientist, Purcell fulfilled a long held desire to design for this form of assembly, he later admitted that subsequent alterations to add more serviceable entrances were well justified and that some clumsiness In the first part of his own program may have contributed to the fallure of the rest to be built.
While living in Portland, Purcell remained in contact with friends and associates from his midwestern practice. His continuing friendship with John Jager, who remained at work In the Hewitt & Brown office In Minneapolis, resulted In voluminous brotherly exchanges of correspondence on a vast array of scholarly subjects. Charles S. Chapman came to visit and enjoyed camping trips with the Purcell sons. When Purcell heard the sculptor Richard Bock was having difficulty getting work, he encouraged Bock to move to Oregon and was Instrumental In gaining him an appointment as head of the Department of Sculpture at the University of Oregon. Bock welcomed the help and In appreciation gave Purcell a duplicate model of the "Nils the Gooseboy" sculpture that was orlglnally placed In the Edna S. Purcell residence In Mlnneapolls and subsequently destroyed In shipment to Oregon.
Since architectural work continued to be Intermittent, Purcell turned to writing and began an articulation of his views on art and architecture that continued prolifically until his death. Through his personal acquaintance with editor WIiiis l. Abbott, Purcell sold to the Christian Science Monitor more than a dozen artlcles on architectural design, particularly Innovative construction techniques being applied to bridge building, which were published between 1923 and 1927, He wrote a series of advisory columns called "The Lamps of Home Building" and other contributions for The Small House, the ASHSB monthly magazine edited by his friend Maurice I, Flagg, until that publlcatlon ceased appearing In 1932.
From 1929 to 1930, he edited the arts page of a Portland weekly called The Spectator, In which he explored his interests in a wide range of historical and contemporary subjects.
Purcell became Increasingly active In professional, civic, and arts organizations. In 1923 he was elected president of the Oregon chapter of the American Institute of Architects, and from 1926 to 1927 he served In the same capacity with the Oregon chapter of Pro Muslca, International. To develop a greater public understanding of the role of architects In the community, Purcell Initiated a group called the Architect's Research Board. He joined the Portland Architectural Club, the Portland City Club, and was a moving force In the local meetings of the literary Knights of the Round Table. httos:lloraanJca .ora(oewao7 .him

From 1928 to 1930, Purcell enjoyed painting on the nature outings of the mountain climbing Mazama Club, an arts organization. One of the most significant and lasting results of Purcell's Involvement In the Portland arts community was the Oregon Society of Artists, of which he was a co-founder In 1927.
During the Portland years, Purcell became repeatedly entangled In disastrous financial arrangements. Real estate speculations like the purchase of the Imperial Garage, a large car service and storage facility, were costly and unprofitable, His Involvement with the Guaranty Trust Company, which became Insolvent shortly after he Invested, forced Purcell to turn for help to his father, who had strongly advised against the venture In the first place, Although the wealthy Charles A. Purcell continued to advance money, the repeated errors In Judgment shown by his son troubled their hitherto affectionate relationship. These economic uncertainties were a severe strain on his home life as well and aggravated an already shaky emotional relationship with his wife Edna.
Throughout the decade, Purcell had felt a progressive decline In his physical well being, feeling unaccountably tired and weak. Persisting in his Christian Science beliefs, he ignored an increasing shortness of breath and continuous fever. Matters worsened dramatically on a visit in 1929 to the forest cabin owned by John Jager at Lake Vermilion in Minnesota, where Purcell suddenly found himself unable to make even the most basic contributions to the camp work, In spite of his condition, he continued to belleve himself simply exhausted by the stress and misfortune that seemed to have engulfed his life,
Eventually the situation grew sufficiently bad for Purcell to seek medical attention. Reluctantly persuaded by friends to see a doctor In 1930, Purcell was discovered to have advanced tuberculosis, Closing his practice and retiring with a sense of failure from the new life he had worked to make for himself, Purcell faced a dark and uncertain future, Rl!Sl!ARCH COURTESY MARK HAMMONS

PURCELL AND ELMSLIE, 1913-1921
==::::!I PORTRAIT of the Purcell family in LAKE PLACE, JHE EDNA S, PYRCELL RESIDENCE circa 1914 By 1913 the work of the Purcell firm had reached a peak in creative and commercial success. The continuity of architectural development by the office was summarized that year in a profusely illustrated issue of the Western Architect, specially designed by the architects themselves, and twice again In numbers of the magazine that followed in 1915. Their building reputation was secure in a considerable number of elegantly distinct expressions of the organic philosophy and prospects pointed toward increasing business.
About halfway through the course of the Purcell partnerships, however, events foreshadowed a change.
George Feick, who did not completely share the intense dedication of Purcell and Elmslie to the new architecture, had been ill at ease with the innovative techniques used by his partners. Increasingly work that would normally have been his responsibility was subcontracted to outside engineers. Since his practical training put him at a disadvantage in meeting the needs of the office and his personality was essentially more conservative than that of the other principals, Feick left in 1913 to rejoin his father's business in Sandusky, Ohio,
Under the new name of Purcell & Elmslie, the partnership entered a period marked by a diversity of challenging projects. Residential work continued to be an Important element in the business of the firm, but the office also produced a variety of designs for commercial and public buildings, churches, factories, and landscaping. Although the skill to deal with the special factors Inherent In many of these schemes was rooted in their previous experience, the architects were often able to even further explore their inventiveness. Still faced with an uncomprehending public, however, many especially experimental forms were fated to remain unbuilt. One of the most forward looking of these projects was a bandstand pavlllon designed for the small, largely Scandinavian Minnesota town of Litchfield. George Elmslie envisioned a structure cast in concrete whose covering roof was mounted on a single supporting stem, a concept that was too radical for a town still questioning the need to hire an architect at all.
Other imaginative solutions failed to because of external influences upon clients. When the MINNEAPOLIS WoMEN's CLua decided to add a theater to their building, the fundamental problem was the cramped size of the available lot. Purcell & Elmslie discarded the aged idea of a proscenium in favor of a thrust platform around which 225 seats were efficiently tiered In sharply rising arcs. The adroit and unconventional arrangement was abruptly dismissed because of an unfortunate but otherwise unrecorded remark made to Ella G. Winter, the dub president, by someone associated with the Purcell & Elmslie office. In another instance, which was typical of several residential projects, plans for a dwelling for C. A. Wheelock of Fargo, North Dakota, had to be set aside because the client encountered financial difficulties.
Two other elegantly conceived projects were disappointments in ironically opposite ways. Intrigued by the opportunity to examine the functional needs of a factory, Purcell proceeded with studies for the project until he discovered that the fast talking client for whom his office had prepared plans for the speculative Gusto Cigarette Company in 1914 was a con artist. A commission for whose loss Purcell blamed his own aesthetic enthusiasm was the Palmer Cantin! residence project [6) also of 1914. For once, the Purcell & Elmslie office was carried away by the delight of a novel design that was far beyond the means of the client to construct. On other occasions, though, such complexity was desired by the client, as with the second Josephine Crane Bradley residence in Madison, Wisconsin, Unconventional heating and cooling systems, the latest labor saving domestic machinery, and special built In cabinets were Included to automate housekeeping chores as fully as possible. The details of the cabinetry alone were sufficiently complex to https://oraanica.ora/pewoo6.htm 1/~

keep "Team" drafter Lawrence A. Fournier at work on the required drawings for more than a month, personally directed by Josephine Bradley.
At the times when George Elmslie was fully committed to other projects, Purcell was on his own. He often used such opportunities to try architectural forms that did not often appear in work by the firm. A large and complex residence for Louis Heitman in Helena, Montana, for example, was built in 1916 using a steep pitched roof one of Purcell's favorite elements. The house was finished with redwood panels and other rich decorative materials obtained from the John S. Bradsteet Company, and the interior decoration developed to a fine degree of detall, including dining room furniture and a fireplace mural executed by designer Harry Rubins. The Heitman house was one of several that evolved over a period of years through several revised schemes, before being finalized and built.
The firm also returned to embellish houses done earlier. In 1914, the simple windows and fixtures of the Charles A. Purcell residence were replaced with elaborate leaded glass and sawed wood designed by Elmslie. A new screened porch was added to the the Edna s.
Purcell house, together with additional interior decoration and a new set of dining room furniture, and similar changes were made In the Catherine Gray house. With the rising popularity of the automobile, clients requested that the firm design garages for their properties, and in the case of the E. S. Hoyt residence in Red Wing, Minnesota, the outbuilding was joined to the main structure by a dramatically framed breezeway.
Because of his Involvement with Christian Science, Purcell often pursued prospects with these churches. He felt the special service requirements for Christian Science assemblies were an Ideal challenge for which he offered an organic solution. Although no results beyond preliminary consultatlons came of most such contacts, his firm prepared alternate schemes for the Third Christian Science Church in Minneapolis. Accessibility and circulation for those attending services were among the chief difficulties, as well as the problem of traffic noise from the busy street that fronted the site. The semi circular auditorium proposed by Purcell & Elmslle met these considerations with an intimate and friendly plan made economically attractive by an efficient structural technique, but divisions within the church membership prevented the project from being realized.
The three buildings that Purcell & Elmslie did for firms selling Edison phonograph machines were high points in their commercial design. Consisting of large scale alterations for a new facade and completely new Interior architecture, the plans for the Edison shop owned by Henry B. Babson in Chicago introduced a recessed front to draw passersby in from the sidewalk. Carefully placed display windows were Intended to entice the customer within the store, where the integrated treatment of furniture, light fixtures, and other decorations created a unified merchandising space. From time to time, Elmslie designed instrument panels or whole cases to replace the awkwardly styled factory made cabinets. Other comparable Edison Shops were built in Kansas City, San Francisco, and Minneapolis.
Although the firm was never able to realize a commission for a library, school, or hotel, the architects did preliminary work for several such projects, The design of the Welcome Inn for George Hermann, the local contractor who built the First National Bank in Rhinelander, Wisconsin, anticipated revolutionary changes in merchandising attitudes later commonplace in hotels. The design was aimed at forming a homelike atmosphere In which restaurant areas for formal and casual dining were segregated and providing dlrect access to the coffee shop from the street. Purcell & Elmslie were confident enough in the approach to provide for later multiple story expansion, but the new ideas were too great a departure from the expectations of the client.
A few smaller buildings that served community purposes were built in rural areas. The Jump River Town Hall of 1915 was intended to be a multipurpose meeting place for a Wisconsin lumber town. The the low, horizontal appearance of the Interlocking board and batten siding recalled the logging camps from which the town had come Into being. The Kasson, Minnesota, Municipal Building, uilt in 1916 included a library, post office, rooms for service clubs, police department and jail in a small two story plus basement structure.
The only expression of the organlcally based architecture In a major public building occurred in the Woodbury County Court House completed in Sioux City, Iowa in 1916. William L. Steele, an architect who had developed a strong friendship with George Elmslie while working in the Sullivan office, was originally granted the commission for the new court house based on his submission of a bland neoclassical design. Once the contract was in hand, however, he disregarded the approved plans and told his supporters on the county board they could get better than they had bargained for. Steele asked George Elmslie to develop a design that expressed the wealth of the agricultural region and the populist character of the people who would be served by the building. Despite opposition from several quarters, including a limestone vendors' association, disgruntled politicians, and public Incomprehension, the Elmslie concept was accepted, in part because the structure used large quantities of locally manufactured brick, most of the construction money would be spent in the city, and praise for the radical design from highly respected visitors.
Designed through debilitating overwork by Elmslie, the the functional organization of the court house was enriched with vast quantities of polychrome terracotta leaded glass, mosaics, and metalwork. While Purcell did not participate directly in the design process, he was responslble for coordinating the work of contributing artists. Since the fee asked by Gutzon Borglum was more than available for a sculptor, Purcell engaged Alphonso Ianelli, a former student of Borglum who had just opened his own studio in Chicago. For a frugal thirty five hundred dollars Ianelli executed massive frieze groups symbolizing democratic forms of justice to surmount the principal entrances and whimsically added cow and buffalo heads over the alleyway service dock. On wide, overhanging balconies surrounding the artificially lit, glass domed lobby, artist John W. Norton painted murals to represent the Elysian richness of the countryside.
By the time the Woodbury County Court House was completed America was on the verge of entering World War I. With architectural commissions at a near standstill and wishing to make some contribution to the national defense effort, Purcell made a decision that would temporarily lead him away from his primary career and ultimately end In unpleasant lltlgations. In 1915 through contacts of his wife's family, Purcell had met Charles 0. Alexander, the president of the Alexander Brothers Leather Belting Company of Philadelphia and a man who seemed sympathetic to the progressive movement. Since the production of leather belts that connected pullies on factory machinery was a priority industry and met Purcell's desire to do something for the war effort, he was encouraged to work for the company in the dual capacities of architect and advertising manager. The various Alexander Brothers concerns were rapidly expanding to include several other leather belting manufacturers under the umbrella name of the International Leather Belting Corporation. In 1916 Purcell sold his properties in Minneapolis and moved his family to Philadelphia. https:/lorganica.org/pewgp6.htm ?/"l

' As advertising manager for Alexander Brothers, Purcell supervised the yearly production of a broad range of promotional materials, including posters, calendars, brochures, labels, malltng cards, and stationery. From 1916 until his resignation In 1919, he applied the principles of organic design in a systematized and coordinated series of campaigns to sell Alexander products. Using artwork and Graphkal Designs commissioned from some of the finest artists of the progressive movement, such as Charles S. Chapman, Charles Livingston Bull, and John W. Norton, the Purcell presentations prophetically anticipated artistic trends in postwar decades.
Architectural work seemed to be plentiful, both for the company and C. 0. Alexander personally. Shortly after Purcell assumed his duties, Alexander decided to remodel the executive and general offices of his headquarters, Including clerical departments, a library, and the executive dining room. Purcell & Elmslie considered the requirements of the business operations and designed a functional system of office divisions and furnishings. Chairs were wall mounted to swing away from the desk when not in use, numerous pieces of furniture and lighting fixtures were comml,ssioned to coordinate with the new interior finish, and decoration of the executive area included murals by John W. Norton.
The most Important of the architectural designs for Alexander Brothers was a standardized factory plan that was intended to be built In three locations. Only two units, those in Chicago and New Haven, were constructed. The International Leather and Belting Corporation factories were among the first industrlat buildings In America to express their utilltarlan function with such philosophical conviction. Using steel roof framing anchored in pier buttressed brick end walls, the architects dismissed intervening side wall supports to leave a continuous 130 foot breadth of wlndow. The human needs of the worker were further considered in carefully developed machinery layouts.
The firm designed two unbuilt projects for C. o. Atexander personally, but completed some alterations at his summer residence in Squam Lake, New Hampshire. The first scheme, a large residence for a site in Philadelphia, was begun by Purcell shortly after his first meeting with the company president but had to be abandoned at the onset of the war. Detailed plans were prepared for a large Institutional church building or Young Men's Christian Association (Y.M.C.A.), which C. 0. Alexander was to have contributed to a mission In Slang Tan, China, but that project ultimately fell through when the Alexander companies went bankrupt.
Sometime before the failure of Alexander Brothers was evident, however, Purcell realJzed his first impressions had failed to recognize the true character of his employer, whom he now understood to be autocratic, ruthless, dishonest, and vain. His involvement with C.
O. Alexander became extremely distasteful, and he resigned after compleUng his duties for the 1919 advertlzlng campaign. Although he attempted to leave on cordial terms, Purcell was eventually forced to sue to recover architectural fees due Purcell & Elmslie as well as his own salary, thus endowing his three year stay with a bitterness and personal disappointment that would remain with him for years.
Purcell briefly considered returning to Minnesota to resume his private practice, but the changing climate of public taste in architecture had effectively ended the progressive period and undermined his happiness and business as an architect. Equally as important, he felt a strong need for a new beginning for his family. The once nurturing climate of the Midwest seemed to have turned against his fortunes. Purcell began to think the time had come for a new beginning in a different part of the country.

MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA : : CHICAGO, ILLINOJS
PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA : : PORTLAND, OREGON
A profound change in the way Purcell developed as an architect occurred at the beginning of the fourth year of his professional practlce. Although George Grant Elmslie had occasionally helped Purcell in his work since 1903, these contributions were more of a suggestive guidance than a determinant role in problem solving. Purcell had contfnued to Increase his own design faculties at a balanced pace by remaining responsible for every phase of a project. Even If Elmslie was avallable as a consultant, Purcell still separately faced the myriad creative and practical details to be met in the process of bringing a building to life.
GEORGE GAANT ELMSLJE, CIRCA 1912
During the last months of 1909 events brought the two men together once more in a daily working relationship, As chief drafter for Louis Sullivan, Elmslie had for years done much of the designing himself, receiving only a weekly salary and having no financial capital of his own. When Sullivan could no longer pay Elmslie because of declining business fortunes, Elmslie was forced to find a more reliable situation. For some time Purcell and Elmslie had talked of working together, and the time was right. By 1910 Elmslie had left the Sullivan office and moved to Minneapolis as a full partner in Purcell, Feick & Elmslie.
With the arrival of Elmslie, Purcell was exposed to an advanced creative method that had been seasoned for fifteen years in the presence of the founding master, Louis Sullivan, His slow, careful progress in developing architectural understanding was interrupted by the need to assimilate the rapid and voluminous flow of sophisticated expressions that Elmslie produced, and at times Purcell was unable to wholly digest the new forms at once. The two men spent many hours in deep discussion of the means and ends of organic design, and their frank and intimate communication resulted in a synergistic creativity that balanced their respective strengths and weaknesses,
The division of labor in the office was structured to accomodate an increased volume of business, With his natural, poetic facility for composition, Elmslie assumed much of the creative work of formulating designs. Given his bent for structural details, George Feick was In charge of the writing of specifications and, later, engineering. Between the two specializations of his partners, Purcell was responsible for managing the flow of the work between client, office, and contractors. Part of his management role meant guiding Elmslie into practical and economic solutions more in line with client needs. As George Feick grew more uncomfortable with the experimental forms produced by the firm, Purcell often had to articulate the technical elements of the designs into contractors' specifications.
George Elmslie brought important business contacts that resulted in a growing number of commissions from former Sullivan clients, such as Henry B. Babson, Carl K. Bennett, and Charles R. Crane and Crane's daughter and son in law, the Harold C. Bradleys. George Feick followed leads for projects In his hometown and also handled sundry small buildings for friends and acquaintances. Purcell continued to develop productive friendships with men who lived in small towns throughout the Midwest, which created a network of sympathizers who kept the firm advised of potential jobs.
Education of the public about the meaning and purposes of "function and form" architecture remained a task to be performed for many potential clients, and sometimes Purcell succeeded too well. For example, he lost the commission for St. Paul's Methodist Episcopal Church in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, through being overly enthusiastic about Louis Sullivan who, still practicing, was a competitor https:/lorqanica.ora/pewap5.htm 1/~

to whom the builder subsequently turned. On another occasion, drawings for the proposed First National Bank at Mankato, Minnesota, were left for further study with a thrifty client who was fully convinced of the organic cause. Shortly afterwards, a competitor not known for innovative work landed the job by underbidding with a design that Purcell regarded as an outright transcription of his firm's presentation.
During this time, Purcell used other means to spread the message of the new architecture. He regularly delivered addresses to a variety of groups, including architectural clubs, social meetings, and conventions of contractors and materials suppliers. To reach a wider audience, he published essays In progressive magazines. These writings advanced the argument that Americans needed to abandon historically derived building forms and encouraged the use of materials native to the site of the building. He also profiled other architects participating in the movement. George Elmslie was co author on some of these publlcations, especially the important "The Statics and Dynamics of Architecture," which was the principal expression of their design philosophy.
The three years of the Purcell, Feick & Elmslie partnership saw the completion of many sensitive expressions of functional architecture, particularly a series of important banks and houses. During this time the architects attained mastery in the enrichment of their buildings with polychrome terracotta, leaded glass, and sawed wood. All of these elements depended on talented artisans like modeler Christian Schneider and window maker Edward L. Sharretts for translation from graphic drawing to material form Mosaics, furniture, carpets, and draperies were included where budgets allowed, as were specially designed electrical fixtures and experimental air conditioning systems. Murals, sculpture, and other works were commissioned from artists such as Albert Fleury, John W. Norton, and Charles Livingston Bull.
The principal commercial work of the firm took form in a number of small town banks. These buildings were usually intended to provide financial and other services to the broad areas of dairy and farmland that centered around a small town. Such a banking Institution was often a small business whose democratic foundations were expressed by the relations between banker and depositor.
As an organic architect, Purcell saw that this condition needed to be expressed architecturally. In the Exchange State Bank at Grand Meadow, Minnesota [71, for example, the conventional metal wickets that separated teller from customer were removed, bringlng the working relationship Into greater harmony with the Midwestern egalitarian spirit.
The small banks came to share a number of distinct features. Interior light was Introduced through wide, opalescent leaded glass windows that prevented glare and obviated the need for unsightly roller shades. Delicate stenciling emphasized the plain plaster surfaces of the walls, which were unified through an Integrated system of wood trim. The exterior structure enclosed the functional simplicity of the internal arrangements with straightfoward geometric planes composed of brick, terra cotta, and stone. Squared stone spars flush with the wall allowed the thickness of the masonry to serve as window reveals, and similarly placed terminal coursework eliminated the applied ornament of a false cornice. These and other elements combined to make the building a creative expression of modern American life, rather than the illusion of a Greek temple or Roman bath.
Almost all commissions for the small banks came to the firm through the efforts of men who were convinced of the rightness of the Purcell, Feick & Elmslie view of architecture and who were often instrumental in persuading others to see the light. In some circumstances this was a difficult task. O. F. Recker, the vice president of the First National Bank at Rhlnelander, Wlsconsln, overcame the dubious faith of his board of directors to begin construction of the radlcally different yet elegantly economical floor plan proposed by the architects but ultimately suffered the loss of a shareholder who rebelled at physical proof of the revolutionary approach.
Others like Elgar Greening at Grand Meadow and 0. G. Dale of the Madison State Bank in Madison, Minnesota, had greater ease In fulfilling their desire to commission the Purcell firm but were surprised at the astonished reactions of those who came to see the buildings.
Another friend of the firm, H. C. Garvin, was responsible for their finest commercial building, the Merchant's National Bank at Winona, Minnesota. The opaque windows, which had appeared in earlier banks, expanded to vast planes of leaded glass filling open space carried underneath massive steel girders that were boldly cast pier and lintel fashion across the street facing facades of roman brick. Both neutral and color glazed terra cotta ornament enunciated the balance of tensions within the structure, with the entrance surmounted by a symbolic eagle centered on the axis of the front wall. Inside the banking room two great murals majestically placed on the upper half of the rear and side walls reflected the agricultural character of the river valley, and the spacious cube shaped main room was lit by symmetrically placed groups of light standards that thrust toward a richly colored skylight. Chairs and other furniture were designed to match the architectural elements, and the round doorway to the bank vault was encircled with an halo of glass mosaic.
In the development of their ideas for both commercial and institutional work, Purcell, Feick & Elmslie created a substantial group of buildings that were direct statements of their beliefs in organic architecture. These works were scattered across the countryside of nearly every midwestern state and most held a central position in the life of the communities where they had been built. Although the functions were similar in purpose, each one was unique to its place and a special celebration of the character and life of the people who had raised it. As a whole, these buildings were a successful combination of the immaterial understanding of organic philosophy and the practlcal demands of the physical world in a totally fresh and uniquely American point of view.
Residential designs by the Purcell, Feick & Elmslie office attained similar degrees of accomplishment. Like the banks, these houses embraced the character and living customs of the client in a dynamic design process based on the same democratically Inspired principles. Financial limitations were a principal concern in the evolution of projects, but the firm often eloquently transcended such constraints to produce dwellings that expressed domestically the unique American vitality that was the source of their inspiration.
The needs of clients with smaller means were met by individualized variations in the compact, open plan houses whose concept the architects continued to refine. The influence of George Elmslie led to a more versatile interplay between architectonic relationships, first reflected In the A. B. C. Dodd residence built In 1910 for a relative of Purcell In Charles City, Iowa, and further shown in the Harold E. Hineline residence completed the same year in Minneapolis, Minnesota. A surprising number of such commissions would eventually come from ordinary people who did personal business with Purcell, such as his piano tuner C. T. Backus.
More elaborate houses allowed a greater artistic freedom, including the incorporation of sawed wood panels, extensive stencil work, leaded glass, and other graceful decorations. The range of possibilities within this category of residential designs was seen in a number of houses erected near inlets of Lake of the Isles in Minneapolis. The size of the project, however, was not always an indication of the cost. In some cases, such as the Oscar Owre and the E. C. TIiiotson residences, the designs could be enhanced in https://organica .org/pewgp5.htm ?/'l.

detail because the clients were able to pay for finer building materials and more decorative craftsmanship. Even though able to make use of their full palette of ornamental techniques in the larger E. L. Powers residence of 1910 because the client was well to do, the architects discovered that cost determination for cubic footage was more dependent on compositional simplicity than mere size. In all their domestic designs the firm sought to strike a balance that enclosed the necessary amount of space but also established an individual creative character through ornamental enrichment, which resulted in a more complete expression of the idea underlying the house.
The house in which Purcell, Fefck, and ElmsHe achieved the fullest and most articulate expression of their abilities was the Edna S.
Purcell residence built in 1913. Built on a very narrow lot, the dwelllng was set back to the rear of the property to avoid the crushing alignment of adjacent houses and to create a compensating sense of depth. Morning sunlight striking a reflecting pool on the eastern front of the house was refracted through a seven by twenty eight foot breadth of beveled, leaded glass windows to shimmer as an aurora upon the tented ceiling of the sunken Hving room. Split level IMng areas on the first floor were integrated through a segmented stairway. From the entryway, steps descended easily to the living room and rose upward to the open dining area aligned directly above the living room. On the second floor were the bedrooms and maid's quarters. Cleverly functional built in cabinetry and furniture, myriad stencil patterns, embroidered cheviot draperies, and specially designed light fixtures executed by metalsmith Robert Jarvie worked together to bring a sense of wholeness to all elements of the space. Artworks incorporated into or acquired for the residence by Purcell Included paintings by Lawton S. Parker, Albert Fleury, and Charles Livingston Bull and sculpture by Richard Bock.
A series of twelve commissions for the Woods Hole, Massachusetts, estate of millionaire Charles R. Crane began In 1910 with alterations to the original 1880s vintage main house. Further work over the next three years Included cottages, stables, a greenhouse, a boathouse, and similar outbuildings, The greatest challenge of the Crane estate projects was the summer residence built for Josephine Crane Bradley, Crane's daughter. The radical deslgn of the house wholly matched a spectacular site on the end of a thin peninsula jutting into the Atlantic Ocean. The Bradley Bungalow, as the house came to be called, began as a notion on the part of Charles Crane to buy an inexpensive prefabricated cabin. A talk with Purcell, however, made him consider the many deficiencies and inconveniences in the idea. Once the actual requirements had been more carefully articulated, the final plans for the house included four principal bedrooms, three baths, and two wide sleepJng porches and servants' rooms, as well as the necessary utility areas. The symmetry of the cruciform two story layout centered upon a massive chimney whose raised hearth faced the sea along the ttp of the penlsula through a semi circular bow of leaded glass windows.
During these years of success, personal events brought substantial changes to the lives of both Purcell and Elmslie. In March 1913 George Elmslle left Minneapolis and returned to Chicago where he opened a second Purcell, Feick & Elmslie office. Profoundly affected by the death of his wife a year earlier, Elmslle hoped to regain a sense of equlnbrium by reinstating his daily routine in comfortably famillar surroundings. On a happier note, Edna and WllUam Purcell adopted two young boys, James In 1911 and Douglas in 1913.
Together with Catherine Gray, the Purcell family continued to vacation at Island Lake each year and took several cross country trips.
Purcell accepted the practice of Christian Science as a logical parallel to his philosophically progressive ideals, an involvement fostered largely through the encouragement of his wife. On the whole, Purcetl saw the expansion of activity that came about during this perlod as a cause for optimism. His life and work happily underway, prospects for the future looked bright.

MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA : : CHICAGO, ILLINOIS
PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA : : PORTLAND, OREGON
The period of his first professional partnership was a time of beginnings for Purcell. During these years he relocated his home, married, and began the development of his skills in handllng his business. His father settled a large sum of money on him as part of his Inheritance, marking his financial independence. With ample resources, a natural interest and sensitivity toward others, and a zealous commitment to the precepts of progressive architecture, Purcell entered into the idealistic pursuit of his vocation.
Early in 1907, Purcell and George Feick took the northbound train from Chicago Into the sub zero winter of Minnesota. After arriving in Minneapolis they took rooms in a boardinghouse, rented an office on the tenth floor of the New York Life Building, and malled out engraved cards announcing the new architectural partnership of Purcell & Feick. For the next two and a half years, they worked to establish their credentials as earnest practitioners of the Sullivan derived "function and form," or organic, architecture.
The dedication of Purcell & Feick to a new and commercially unaccepted practice made securing work even more difficult for the fledgling office. The principles underlying proposed designs often had to be explained to potential clients, a process that took time and depended on an open mindedness not always present. The lack of many completed buildings as examples to demonstrate the effectiveness of their approach was another handicap to gaining commissions that took time to overcome. During their first year the architects recorded only twelve entries on their accounting system of which seven were for unrealized projects, alterations to existing structures, or Insignificant consultations.
Throughout these early years Purcell continued to develop his personal and professional relationship with George Grant Elmslie.
When In Chicago, Purcell would always visit the Sullivan offices in the Auditorium tower to see his friend and look at the work on the drafting tables. Elmslie gladly consulted on Purcell's architectural problems and encouraged him to read books by Edward Carpenter and others. This exposure to the mature and inspired abilities of Elmslie served to challenge as well as to support his work, and on occasion Purcell tested his own skills by keeping projects isolated from his mentor.

Other significant personal relationships also originated during this time. In December 1908 he married Edna Summy, a Wellesley graduate whose father owned a music publishing business In Chicago. The couple honeymooned in the snow covered forest at Island Lake and, when they returned, shared a house with Catherine Gray, who came to Minneapolis to be near her grandson. During 1908 Purcell made the acquaintance of Minnesota architect John Jager, who became a lifelong friend who shared Purcell's interests In architecture and art. This growing sense of family of especially important to Purcell, who often felt frustrated with and even alienated from the many people to failed to respond to the message of organic architectural philosophy.
Many early business relations sprang from contacts with friends of his father or grandfather, such as H. C. Garvin of Winona, Minnesota. Like several small town supporters of Purcell & Feick, Garvin believed in the same philosophy that motivated Purcell and worked to deliver other customers to the firm and provided his own commissions. This growing network of small town businessmen, especially bankers, would eventually broaden opportunities for commissions in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and the Dakotas. From contacts in his home town of Sandusky, George Feick, Jr., brought business to the office from Ohio, particularly speculative houses and an office building done for his father, a construction contractor.

THRl!:1! VIEWS OP LAKE OP THE ISLES, MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA, circa 1910• Wllll•m Gray Purcell, photographer The residential work of the tlrm began with a house built In 1907 by Purcell for his own use and later named in honor of his grandmother, the CATHERINE GRAY RESIDENCE. A~er a frustrating and time consuming FIRST ATTEMPT that failed to yield any useful results, Purcell tlied anew by consulting with George Elmslle on a plan that Integrated, among other aspects of the composition, a lot with a lake view and the desire for a detached pavilion porch. Purcell used an Initial sketch by Elmslie to compose the elevations and to articulate conscientiously a structural technique that addressed his philosophical concerns about the functional use of matelials.
Several significant features refined In many later designs made their first appearance in the Catherine Gray house. The use of a tented ceiling and outwardly opening casement windows were elements that would be used consistently. A new system of interior wood trim was developed to emphasize the enclosing sense of the walls, rather than the tradltlonally accentuated openings of windows and doors. The fireplace for the house was built with a raised hearth, another important element that would be carried forward to other work. One of the disadvantages found In this design and representing a problem that would often to be encountered In the future was the economic need to incorporate pre existing furniture In the new building. The design of such older pieces almost always seen to affected negatively the values of the architecture.
The firm furthered their Ideas about residential design through submissions to various competitions and the practical experience gained by doing alterations. In March 1908 the F. W. Bird Company, a manufacturer of paper building materials, sponsored a competition to demonstrate the variety of uses to which their products could be applied. Purcell & Feick entered a design that employed the Bird Company building papers to enclose an open floor plan In a structurally Innovative fashion. Although the judges selected a traditional design in preference to the Purcell & Feick entry, the effort of the firm to work with an open plan was the beginning of a series of similar residences built by the Purcell partnerships over the next decade.
A month after the Bird Company competition the firm met their first would be home owner, Minneapolitan Arthur Jones who wanted to remodel a small barn into a residence. An open floor plan similar to the Bird design was devised that also featured an unconventional window treatment. Pleased with the results and hopeful of getting some favorable publicity, Purcell & Feick made a study for a similar house that they wanted to appear in the Ladies Home Journal. The plan accomplished the feat of including five well proportioned bedrooms in a two story plus attic house measuring only twenty two by thirty feet, but whether the design was actually submitted for publication is unknown. Such experiments came to yield practical results. Although the plan for the Journal was never actually constructed, a cottage based in part on the design was built for J. D. R. Steven in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, during the spring of 1909, The harmonious arrangement of the Steven cottage so pleased the owner that when a second, larger and more formal house was required, Purcell & Feick got the commission.
Another early problem considered by the architects was the integration of modern mechanical conveniences into both residential and commercial design. Devices such as refrigerators were necessary to modern kitchens, and housing plans often had to accommodate the growing presence of the automobile in American life. For example, the 1907 plans for an unbuilt group of duplexes residence in Winona, Minnesota, included a large garage for each living unit. Purcell believed the new mechanical accoutrements for living both deserved and required equally as poetic expression in design as did the more basic requirements of human shelter, a conviction bolstered by his enthusiastic response in 1908 to The Voice of the Machines by Gerald Stanley Lee.
The first Purcell & Feick dwelllng whose plan included a garage was built for Purcell's father in River Forest, Illinois, In 1909. Purcell had trouble finding a solution for the house within the imposed economic limits and came to regard his unaided completion of the design for the Charles A. Purcell residence as a point of honor. Relying solely on his own ideas, Purcell completed the residence and a slightly self conscious garage for a total of $15,500, including the lot. Earlier in 1908 the firm had built what Purcell regarded as the first garage In Minneapolis designed specifically for the service of automobiles. Featuring several Innovative elements, the Motor Inn was done for Henry Goosman, who had for many years maintained a thriving livery business, The wide, round entrance door opened through a special electrohydraulic lift mechanism, and a novel sidewalk-like ledge that served as an interior curb within the building https://organica.org/pewgp4.htm

was also useful as a handy area for tools and temporary storage. Inside the office, a graduated horizontal wood trim effected a streamlined wall treatment, the whole design reflecting the sense of movement and change that was the experience of the automobile.
The two churches built during the partnership of Purcell & Feick represented diametrically opposed attitudes on the part of the different clients who commissioned them. As architects who were convinced practitioners of the Sullivan philosophy, the demands of the rector and vestry of Christ Church In Eau Claire, Wisconsin, posed something of a dilemma. The prosperous lumbermen who comprised the building committee made clear their preference for a traditional approach. Unable to lead their cllents toward new and unfamiliar forms, Purcell and Feick decided to give the congregation a simple but clearly historically inspired structure that at least had the honesty of using genuine masonry walls and wooden roof trusses uncluttered by obscuring ornament.
A completely different situation occurred with the Stewart Memorial Church of 1909. The church elders were persuaded that a nontraditional design, a cube shaped church with a flat roof and missing the customary steeple, was the most economical to build as well as being a better statement of modern Protestant practice. Since the assembly could not afford to complete both the sanctuary and a Sunday school wing at the same time, wall sized sliding doors that would later open Into flanking auditorium space to be located in the unbullt section were temporarily covered as exterior walls. In his first publfcatlon written to argue for an honest American building art, Purcell expounded upon the functionalist qualities of the design In an article entitled "Expressions In Church Architecture," which appeared in the successor magazine to his grandfather's weekly, The Interior.
Sometimes commissions were lost despite the best educational efforts of the firm, and even when the client was willing to listen, Purcell was not always successful in his attempts to overcome the common taste for revivalist forms. Some clients were simply unwilling to change their minds about what constituted the appropriate appearance of a building. Purcell recommended to one group of potential bank builders that they visit the Farmers' National Bank just then being completed In Owatonna, Minnesota, but the richness and radlcal composition of the Sullivan bank disturbed more than enlightened them. To convey an understanding of the Integrated concepts on which Purcell & Feick based their proposal for the First National Bank in Winona, Minnesota, the firm resorted to a plaster model for which, Purcell dlscovered, the clients had even less of an affinity.
On other projects, Purcell discovered that the clients either did not know what they needed or actually wanted something totally different from what they had said, For example, In designing a house for the wealthy E. C. Warner that would have overlooked Lake Calhoun in Minneapolis, Purcell took seriously the financlal limit of forty thousand dollars. He approached the project intent on creating a comfortable and practical living space without making arbitrary decisions for the client and, as a guide to possible square footage, he wrote to Louis Sullivan requesting plans for the Bradley and Babson residences, which had cost similar amounts. Purcell prepared a series of large presentation drawings that allowed for a participation in the design process that Mr, Warner was disinclined to enjoy. The commission went to a competitor who presented an inflexible design with all details already fixed, and the ultimate expense of the residence was much more than the client had originally expressed the desire to spend.
As he would later express In many of his writing and correspondence, the disappointments and the successes of his architectural practice were considered by Purcell as landmarks in the vallant battle to an Indigenous American architecture. In the first two years of their work, the firm of Purcell & Feick had made a successful beginning In carrying on that struggle. During that time he had also established a social life with people who shared his values. Surrounded by supportive famlly, friends, and associates, Purcell was eager for the challenges that lay ahead and filled with hope that the best was yet to come.

Portrait of William Gray Purcell, 1906
t'ltl
IJD
Back home in Oak Park, Illinois, WIiiiam Gray Purcell went looking for a position from which he could learn the rudiments of an active architectural practice. Surrounded once more by the progressive, democratic architecture of the Midwest, the spirit of his quest toward an Indigenous, wholly American building art was freshty renewed. Although Purcell considered applying to Frank Lloyd Wright, his father did not approve. Instead, Purcell took a clerking position with Ezra E. Roberts, a stable and prosperous architect of whom Charles A. Purcell thought well.
Respectable though Roberts was, his office was not very active. Purcell found himself with time to lament the uninspiring contents of the architectural periodkals and compose personal letters on the office typewriter. The situation soon changed for the better, however, when Purcell attended a dinner party at the Oak Park home of George Simpson, an old friend of his grandfather. Present at the gathering was George Grant Elmslie, then the chief drafter for Louis Sullivan. The two men liked one another immediately, not least because of their shared interest ,n progressive architecture. When Purcell complained of his situation with Roberts, Elmslie offered to secure Purcell a position in the Sullivan office.
The five months from August to December 1903 that Purcell spent in the Sullivan offices were the best possible fulfillment of his wish. In the rooms that the Sullivan practJice occupied high atop the tower of the great Auditorium Building, completed by Adler & Sullivan in 1889, Purcell was exposed directly to the originator and the princlpal practitioner of the architectural philosophy to he was dedicated. His experiences in talklng with Sullivan or observing his interactions with other draftsmen as he moved among the drafting tables stayed with Purcell as a source of inspiration for the rest of his life.
Sullivan, however, had entered the decline of his fortunes, and there was not a great deal of work to be done in the office. Purcell drafted a lock plate and doorknob for one project and also delineated a landscaping plan for his employer's summer residence in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. With time available to talk and study what work was passing through the office, Purcell and George Elmslie became fast frrends. Elmslie attempted to instruct Purcell in the fine art of delineating the Sullivan ornament, and Purcell practiced on a design for a public library that was later published in The Brickbuilder. By the end of the year, though, it was clear there was insufficient work for Purcell.

For his next employment, Purcell decided to venture to the West Coast by way of an extended journey through the southwestern United States. He eventually arrived at Los Angeles, where two of his aunts lived, and applied for work at the office of Myron Hunt, but there was no opening. On the recommendation of those with whom he interviewed, Purcell left southern California for San Francisco. Hired by John Galen Howard, Purcell became clerk of the works for the construction of California Hall, being built on the University of California campus at Berkeley. While he did not think much of the design of the structure, his stay in the area exposed Purcell to the work of Bernard Maybeck, who he came to admire. As could be expected with someone who had grown up around the play of light and water, he also noticed the pleasant manner in that bay windows on numerous houses reflected a functional response through house construction to the relationship between the hilly geography and the ocean views.
In 1905 Purcell moved farther up the coast to Seattle, Washington, where he worked for several months in the office of A. Warren Gould. Purcell's father, who disliked the Pacific Northwest and was afraid of the effects of the weather on the health of his son, offered to send him on a year long tour of Europe. Accepting the offer, he contacted his former classmate, George Feick, Jr., and two men agreed to meet in New York. Before leaving for the rendevouz, Purcell spent ten days in Chicago that included a visit with George Elmslie. Elmslie showed Purcell a magazine illustrating the work of a progressive Dutch architect, H. P. Berlage, and encouraged him to meet the man if he could.
By April 1906 Purcell and Feick had crossed the ocean and were greeted upon their landing at Naples, Italy, by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, which heightened their appreciation of visiting the ruins of Pompei. After seeing the sights of Florence and Venice, they traveled across Greece to Constantinople and by June had returned to western Europe. Although appreciative of the architectural relics that surrounded him, Purcell was also keen to seek out the best contemporary design as well. He remembered the suggestion made by Elmslie and stopped in Holland to visit the architect Berlage, who received him warmly and the two established a longlasting friendship. Although short of cash Purcell was also successful in his efforts to reach Scandinavia, where he met progressive architects Ferdinand Boberg and M. Nyrop. These contacts added to his growing desire to commence his own work and shortly after returning to the United States, Purcell moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota, to open an office in partnership with George Feick, Jr.

CORNELL, 1899-1903
___ Portrait of William Gray Purcell, circa 1900
Although Purcell left for the College of Architecture at the Ithaca, New York, campus of Cornell University with high hopes, his experiences there were less exciting than anticipated. He packed along many personal memorabilia, since this was the first time he had ever lived away from home. His room in a plaln but comfortable boarding house was filled with guns and animal skins from Island Lake and souvenirs from his graduation from Oak Park High School. Purcell also brought a variety of musical Instruments, several cameras, and an eagerness to get on with the education that would enable him to practice as a professional architect. ~t~
!~ ~ ' . .
=======eJ· Study for Oak Park State Bank, 1901
Unfortunately for his enthusiasm, he soon found himself bored with the curriculum. The kind of architecture being taught at Cornell had little to do with the exciting buildings Purcell had seen being built In the Midwest. Although Cornell possessed a reputation as one of the newest and most advanced universities in the country, Purcell found himself spending long hours over drafting boards drawing Neo-classical designs based on Greek and Roman examples. His teachers thought lightly, if at all, of the buildings that had inspired him back In Chicago, Instead, the curriculum taught him traditfonal Beaux Arts composition. Purcell had a hard time discussing the organic philosophy that fascinated him, and found that the books he wanted to read, such as those of John Ruskin, were not to be found in the library.
Purcell made as good a time as possible of his college years by participating in numerous extra curricular activities. During his freshman year, he ran in track events and was proud of tying a world's record. In his sophomore and junior years he joined the campus Masque Players and Glee Club, as well as cultivated his sketching technique. He frequently attended concerts, recitals, and other entertainments, often in the company of his new friend, classmate George Feick, Jr. All the tickets and programs, handbills and other memorabilia of these attractions, together with many photographs Purcell took of the Cornell campus and vldnity, were carefully collected and pasted in a large scrapbook.
In the summer of 1901, Purcell received his first opportunity to do professional work in the architectural field. His grandfather had traveled through the South during 1898 and was appalled by the poverty he had witnessed there. In Kowaliga, Alabama, Gray met William E, Benson, a black man whose Industry had enabled him to triumph over the oppression of the sharecropper economic https:/lorganica.org/pewgp2.htm 1/?

,,. system. The editor wrote an article about the Alabaman for The Interior, and subsequently stayed in touch. When Benson said he wanted to use his money to build a new community for a group of poor families, Gray suggested that his grandson, who was studying to be an architect, was likely to have some useful ideas. Benson wrote to Purcell, and arranged to have him come to Kowaliga.
The first week of his visit, Purcell surveyed the land and discussed the requirements of the project with William Benson and his employees. He produced a sketches for a number of simple wooden frame dwellings, and suggested an arrangement for a small store and other community services. Halfway through his stay, however, the work was interrupted by an Incident of racial violence. Many poor white people in the county where Benson llved were jealous of his land and possessions, During one hot summer night a lynching occurred nearby and shortly afterwards the mob appeared at Benson's door. Benson cautioned Purcell to remain Inside and out of sight, for the vigilantes milling about might take action against a white man found staying with blacks.
Although Purcell returned to Cornell filled with Ideas for the development, Benson continued to be uncertain of what he ought to do.
Correspondence and sketches were exchanged for several months, but eventually nothing was realized of the prototype community.
Despite the lack of practical results, Purcell decided to call the trip his first professional consultation, for which he received payment of fifty dollars.
During his third year of studies, Purcell entered the Andrew D. White Competition of 1902, sponsored and judged by the American ambassador to Germany. The design that he submitted was laughed at by others preparing their own entries, for the drawings featured no classical ornament and the ptan was strictly organized according to the minimal requirements of the program. To the astonishment of his faculty and classmates, Purcell distinguished himself by wjnning first prize.
Shortly after his triumph at the School of Architecture Purcell undertook the sad task of designing a monument stone for his grandfather, who died in 1901. W. C. Gray had served as the official photographer of the Third Alaskan Reindeer Expedition of 1899 that sailed on the U.S.S. Revenue Cutter Bear. The cramped conditions on board the shlp and the arduous, lengthy journey weakened the health of the seventy year old man, who had to leave the company part way through the voyage. Gray never fully recovered from the arduous effort of the trip, although his enthusiastic descriptions and large collection of photographs convinced his son In law to take William and Ralph Purcell to Alaska in 1900. The stral'ghtforward, unadorned design of the Memorial Stone for W. C. Gray was In sharp contrast to the typically ornate funerary monuments of the time, and next to the monument was placed a a pine tree transplanted from Island Lake. The last year of hfs attendance at Cornell was uneventful, and Purcell graduated in the spring of 1903. Catherine Gray came to the commencement with her companion Annie Zeigler [SJ, who had agreed to remain with W. C.
Gray's widow at his dying request and would do so for the next thirty years. Once the ceremony was over Purcell packed his scrapbooks and diploma, bade goodbye to his roommates, and returned to Chicago ready to find an architect with whom he could apprentice.

Archivist and historian Mark Hammons characterized the partnership of Purcell and Elmslie: "Elmslie assumed charge of design and plann;ng in the Purcell, Feick & Elmslie office and developed a relationship with Purcell that was In some ways ironically similar to the role that he had performed for Sullivan. Though brillianUy creative, ElmsUe often lacked a practical sense of the economic constraints of a project and sometimes became unreallsUcally extravagant. Purcell was able to guide Elmslle toward more feasible solutions and could successfully relate the concepts behind the innovative forms to clients and craftsmen alike. Together the two men balanced the abl!llies of one another and formed one of the most artistically sensitive and productive practices among the progressive archilects." (See Mark Hammons, Biographical Noles: George Grant Elmslie (1869-1952) (hnp://www.organlca.org/pegge1 .him), accessed 06/17/2015.) Fotlowlng his break with Elmslle (1869-1952), Purcell opened his own practice In Portland, OR, 1922; In the 1930s, He designed a handful of residences In Southam CA, In association with the Portland, OR, architect, James Van Evera Bailey {http://pcad.lib.washington.edu/person/1843/) (190J.1980). Due to his diagnosis of tuberculosis In 1930, Purcell worked only intermittently after 1931. During Purcell's career in Minneapolis, he became one of the most successful architects to work In Iha Prairie Style, building extensively across the states of MN and WI.

Purcell relocated frequently during his life, llvlng in both the Midwest and on the Pacific Coast. Bom In Willmette, IL, (or Winnetka, IL, the records are not clear) Purcell, grew up In his grandparents' household In Oak Park, IL, near the studio of Frank Lloyd Wright. In 1906, Purcell Indicated on a US Passport application a home address of 319 North Kenilworth Avenue, Oak Park, IL. Blessed with a wealthy family, Puroell could travel comfortably, end became something of a vagabond in his working career, settling in Chicago, IL, Los Angeles, CA, San Francisco, CA, Seattle, WA, Mlnneapo~s. MN, Portland, OR, and Pasadena, CA. Following the dissolution of his Minneapolis partnership of PurceD and Elmslle, Purcell moved to the West Coast, wor1dng In OR from about 1925 until 1930. A diagnosis of tuberculosis forced him to move to a dry desert climate In CA in the early 1930s. Following his 1935 release from a tuberculosis sanatorium, he moved to Pasadena, where he would build an estate he named "Westwinds." William Gray Purcell spent the remainder or his life in Southern CA, dying in Los Angeles at the age of 84.

His mother was Anna Cora Gray Purcell (http:Jlwww.findagrave.com/cgl-bln/fg,cgl?page=gr&GRld=143668195) (1861-1914). Anna and Charles lived, early In their married life, with her father, William Cunningham Gray (http:ltwww.findagrave.com/cgi-blnffg .cgi?page=gr&GRfd=68342241) (1830-1901 ), and mother, Anna Catherine Garns Gray (1836-1934).

Unified Vision > The Collection > William Gray Purcell and George Grant Elmslle Purcell and Elmslie received more commissions than
any other firm of progressive architects after Frank
Lloyd Wright. The partnership began when two Cornell
architecture school classmates, William Gray Purcell
and George Feick, Jr., opened a practice in Minneapolis in 1907. Purcell had been raised in the Chicago suburb
of Oak Park, Illinois, and worked for a short time with Louis Sullivan's chief designer, George Grant Elmslie,
in Sullivan's studio. In 1909 Elmslie's twenty-year
employment with Sullivan came to an end, and Purcell
encouraged him to join the Minneapolis partnership.
While Feick left the group in 1913, the firm of Purcell and Elmslie continued until 1921.
Purcell and Felck's architecture is marked by buildings rarely accompanied by decoration beyond
opportunities afforded by building materials. Elmslie's entry into the partnership brought an added complexity of composition and ornamental design, tying their work more directly to Louis Sullivan's decorative tradition. Purcell contributed an imaginative sense of space and the Ideal of developing a better living environment for the middle class, quickly establishing a national reputation for the firm.
Purcell and Elmslie's architecture is characterized by open floor plans with the hearth as a focal point, versatile rooms that served multiple functions, custom designed built-in and free-standing furniture, and large bands of windows to take advantage of the light at various time of day. Consistent organic schemes of ornament inside and out helped unify the design.
The Edna S. Purcell Residence (now the Purcell-Cutts House, owned by The Minneapolis Institute of Arts), built for Purcell and his family, combined all these elements into a successful design for modern living. see obi~>

Mr Purcell---W~ll you please make notes, and sketches, and such, and I will pick up in the morning, without aiecusion. I have a very bad cold, sneeZi:\'}g, and blowing, and em no fit guest for any,pne, · especialy Ba,nning confines.
Note that I changed Oecily•s bath layout just a little bit. Room did not permit the.tub to go along-the back wall--Added a_small closet to the bed room using the worthless end of ~he bath closet--Put in a door to a little hall, .a B R door directly into the living room ie not eo good, I tbtmk. Aleo got in the H W tank closet. Have to keep him with us waerewwr we go. I forgot to-say, winds vecy·otten blow sand an4 rubbish all over Palm Spring•, when-the houses have to be closed.up tight. Ther~tor;,1 would hesitate to have an,open ge,ra,ge. iJbe. doors·, huilt up on the job, hardware and sanging run tl.O, "included 1n the estimate.
Mr ~gatt •ante 850 for the use of his Pino_rete form ms.chine -and equipmen.t (I did ·not put this item in the _estimate) I doubt very much that the•e would be aey econoncy-.on such a small order, and woull obvi-ously have to be charged to e~cation, amu~emcmt, or ·lu~.
I believe ·that the cement block is the most economical,-the smaller we·get. 'l'h~ wall would not be of equal desirability, of course. lft1at"cha thinkt
I eliminated cement floor in the garage, The soil there is course s~d, probably ·could be mixed a bit withloam,-boarded and be o K. ~Not in eetimate. ) _ ·
Note the inter•or ,board partitions. Saves,
I put in a small wood closet by the fireplace, which would run up to about -shelf h•ight in the coat closet, and then be covered over for space in the coat closet.
'!be pllui now looks very good to me, with many advantag-ee over the origiaal. Probably a better organization than the ;one I produced.
Tell Oecily I know when I•m licked.
Stil~ a bit more money than I would like to see it, but not a tat estilllate, I am 8l re. Tb.ere are several equinne to do it for this.
H~wever, I believe that'it could be held to this, but I know there ie no room to get careless.
r•m feeling terribleJ darn colds! Havn1t had one for ages. I picked it up from the plumbe·r when I went in night before last to talk a.bout borrowing cement eq~ipment. The whole family were just as I am now.
And I was just in the right shape to catch it, with two days past with not the best of-----
So I will drop by in the morning.

Dear Mr. Purcell:

JOHIII A. ARMSTRONG
V1e11: PRe::1J1P1t.NT
We have your recent note and will be glad to
supply you with Palms for use at Palm Springs. We are
planning to make one of our first truck deliveries to
Palm Springs about October 1st and shall be glad to in clude an order of material for you on that delivery.
The Pindo Palm an Ornamental Date Palm d
extremely well in Palm Sprin d the Coe osa
has been planted to some extent. However, the Cocos
plumosa is not very happy at Palm Springs, due to the
extreme summer heat which it does not seem to stand
well. Of course, most of the fan type Palms do quite
well there, and these~trtr.mtnr;-:ba.-a,,s!..c:dition to the Cal- ifornia Fan Palm, th alm d the Blue Palm.
These are botanically Kb~n..,a.a.J,w~--Jiᴥ+.e:k a edulis and Ery- thea armata. They are slower gro ypes but are
very effective at Palm Springs.
The Ornamental Date Palms are available in a
variety of sizes, ranging from gallon containers to
balled, field grown plants and small boxed specimens
which we do not list in our Catalog. If you· will let
us know the quantity of these Palms that you will be
using, we will be glad to quote you a special price on
them. The Pindo Palm or Cocos australis does quite
well at Palm Springs and we have plants as indicated in our Catalog. In addition to the rates listed in our
Catalog, we will be glad to quote you special prices
on larger quantities.
Yours very truly,

Description:
(Describe
resource
and
Its
major
elements
. Include
design,
materials,
cond
ition,
alterations,
size,
setting
, and
boundaries)
Though
altered,
the
recidence
at
252
E:ist
Ocotlllo,
designed
in
1933
by
Prairie
School
architect
William
Gray
Purcell
as
his
own
property,
still
conveys
its
original
massing,
proportion,
and
overall
feeling.
This
residence
is
significant
as
one
of
the
first
buildings
in
Palm
Springs
to
be
built
in
the
Modernist
trad
ition
with
the
emphasis
on
simple
cubic
forms
and
minimal
ornament,
but
tailored
to
the
desert
locale.
Though
strongly
horizontal,
the
design
of
this
single-story
res
idence
is
based
on
the
concept
of
graduated
cubic
forms,
highest
at
the
center,
creating
a stepped
roofline.
Generally
rectangular
in
plan
, the
house
has
a slightly
irregular
footprint
with
a courtyard
at
the
rear.
The
original
three-sided
courtyard
at
the
rear
has
been
altered
as
part
of
the
patio
has
been
enclosed
.
The
house
incorporates
elements
of
Palm
Springs
resident
ial
architecture,
which
are
now
ubiquitous,
but
at
the
time
this
house
was
built
were
innovative
. These
elements
include:
flat,
horizontal
overhangs
over
steel-framed
windows,
a flat
roof,
strong
horizontals,
corner
windows,
and
the
dominant
rectangular
element
that
often
corresponds
lo
a
chimney.
The
house
was
originally
built
to
include
a roof
terrace
. At
present,
the
exterior
walls
are
stucco
. The
original
exterior
materials,
brick
and
wood,
gave
a more
textured
appearance
. The
entrance,
below
a
flat
overhang,
is
located
off
center
of
the
main
south-facing
elevation.
The
garage
originally
used
by
Purcell
as
a
studio
has
been
altered
by
a sliding
glass
door
replacement
in
the
original
door
opening.
The
building
has
a fair
level
of
integrity
and
retains
a large
amount
of
historic
fabric
including
steel
casement
windows
. A
solid
low
masonry
fence
fronts
the
property
and
landscaping
is
in
keeping
with
desert
themes
.
