       Cordova Street, known as Whispering Waters, is significant under Criterion
       "C" for designation as a landmark (Pasadena Municipal Code Section
       17.62.040) because the property is a good intact example of the work of
       developer Lionel V. Mayell (under the title Lionel Mayell Enterprises), who
       pioneered the development of own-your-own apartments in California during
       the mid-twentieth century, and because it embodies the distinctive
       characteristics of the modern garden-apartment property type as applied to a
       modified mid-rise apartment building, and because of the incorporation of the
       unique water feature as a landscape element;      
       (3) Approve the designation of the property at 1000 East Cordova Street as
       a landmark;

       Designation for 1000 East Cordova Street, Pasadena, California; and

       September 17, 2007, at a noticed public hearing, the Historic Preservation
       Commission voted unanimously to recommend approval of the designation of
