          significant under Criterion c for designation as a landmark (Pasadena
          Municipal Code Section 17.62.040 B) because it is an intact example of
          the distinctive characteristics of Art-Moderne Style applied to a small-scale
          commercial building;
          (3)  Approve the designation of the property at 1855 East Colorado
