WHEREAS, the building is of interest as a prominent part of early develop-
ment in downtown Lubbock. Built in 1928 in the Original Town, this commercial
building was continuously in use for more than 50 years. Furniture dealers,
office supply, and the USO have occupied the structure during its existence;
and
·WHEREAS, characteristic of one of many dynamic, enterprising business
persons associated with the early years of Lubbock, Norton Baker represents an
example of the keen interest of the citizens of early Lubbock who created an
aggressive business climate that persists today, as well as showing respect for
the value and beauty of the built environment; and
WHEREAS, the building was constructed by J.B. Maxey, a prominent con-
tractor in early Lubbock. Some of the other structures on which J.B. Maxey was
the builder were St. Paul of the Plains Episcopal Church, K. Carter School, the
First National Bank Building, and the President's home on the Texas Tech campus
and
WHEREAS, as redevelopment of the central business district continues,
distinct structures such as the Baker Building will become the nucleus for
adaptive or continuous use of the building stock in downtown Lubbock. Such
examples are necessary to attract and encourage other such activities; and
WHEREAS, the Urban Design and Historic Preservation Commission for the
City of Lubbock is of the opinion that the Baker Building, 1211 13th Street,
should be preserved as part of our heritage for future generations and that the
Baker Building owner and tenants should be recognized for their fine work in
preserving that building by making it a historic landmark of the City of
Lubbock; and
WHEREAS, the proposed changes in zoning as hereinafter made have been duly
presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission for its recommendation which
was received by the City Council and, after due consideration, the City Council
finds that due to changed conditions, it would be expedient and in the interest
of the public health, morals, and general welfare to make those proposed
changes in zoning; and
WHEREAS, all conditions precedent required by law for a valid amendment to
the Zoning Ordinance and Map have been fully complied with, as well as giving
notices in compliance with Section 26 of Ordinance No. 7084, as well as notices
provided in Article 1011f, Vernon's Annotated Civil Statutes, amended in 1961,
and notice was duly published in the Lubbock Morning Avalanche-Journal more
than fifteen (15) days prior to the date of the public hearing before the City
Council on such proposed amendment, and the public hearing according to said
notice was duly held in the City Council Room on the second floor of the City
Hall, Lubbock, Texas, at which time persons appeared in support of the pro-
posal; and, after said hearing, it was by the City Council determined that it
