The square structure has a cross-gable roof with composition shingles,horizontal sliding windows, vinyl windows, and the exterior is clad in stucco. Other Resources.Resources identified as adjacent to the project area included a segment of the Atchison,Topeka and the Santa Fe Railroad, a segment of the Tidewater-Southern Railroad, the 1912 electric distribution lines along McHenry Avenue/Escalon Avenue,a 1948 trailer court at 1666 McHenry Avenue,and the 1930s;residences at 1606-1610, 1616 McHenry Avenue.None of these resources were determined to be considered eligible for listing in either the NRNP or California Registers. Landscape elements/Trees. An olive tree was identified within the proposed project area, in front of the residence at 2700 McHenry Avenue. This tree is not part of the row of eucalyptus trees surrounding the residence at 2700 McHenry Avenue,and no reference to the specific tree could be identified through archival research. Tidewater-Southern Railroad.The tracks of the Tidewater-Southern Railway (now Union Pacific)run through the western section of Escalon,paralleling McHenry Avenue on the west.The tracks consist of steel track laid on wood ties. All associated railroad buildings have been demolished,and previous evaluations determined that the segment of the Tidewater Southern line has lost its integrity,and is therefore not considered eligible for listing in either the NRHP or California Registers.
