little apparent conversion. Others became apartment buildings requiring separate entrances. Some smaller houses were elevated in order to create basement living spaces or garages. Wartime housing demands and limited construction material meant these conversions were often economically beneficial for property owners, and as middle-class families left the neighborhood, property investors often purchased vacant homes and converted them for tenants. Because the neighborhood was unrestricted, it was available to nonwhites, whose population in the central city was growing in response to employment demands in Sacramento’s industrial areas. Conversion in this form does not necessarily damage the historic integrity of a property within the district, because this conversion demonstrates part of the neighborhood’s history within context. Context Statements as a Method of Analysis in Boulevard Park Expanded use of historic context statements within a district should not allow unlimited license to include modified properties within a district, or expand a district to the point where demonstrating significance requires convoluted explanations of neighborhood history. National Register nominations undergo review at several levels. Historic context statements must be properly supported, defensible, and based on established criteria with identifiable sources. They are the foundation of a nomination’s eligibility, but they are not a substitute for a complete and thorough description, clear statements of significance, and defined criteria of eligibility and criteria considerations. Nominations lacking these elements are unlikely to receive support or approval by state or federal authorities. Eligibility based on social context still requires sufficient integrity for interpretation and comprehension of the resource within that applicable context. 44
Properly established historic context statements provide a useful tool for the preservation professional and researcher as a means to represent the history of historic districts beyond the scope of earlier narratives. The limitations of National Register criteria, and the framework of the National Register program, have created a specialized method of historical analysis in the form of the historic context statement. This method has not remained static, as both the methods of academic history and historic preservation have progressed. In the case of Boulevard Park, the subject property demonstrates eligibility for the National Register under Criterion A within the contexts of streetcar suburb development and City Beautiful neighborhood design, with a period of significance of 1905-1946. The National Register documentation in Appendix B includes description of the district and statements of significance to clarify the points made above. 45
