Staff Review
HDC 2014-072
LOCAL HISTORIC DISTRICT:
Wesley Heights
PROPERTY ADDRESS:
409 Grandin Road
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
Addition
OWNER:
Todd Calamita
APPLICANT:
Chris Scorsone
Application for a Certificate of Appropriateness
Date: May 21, 2014
Details of Proposed Request
Existing Conditions
The existing home was built in 1927 and listed as a contributing structure in the Wesley Heights National
Register. It is a one story bungalow with a combination front and side gabled roof. Porch supports are wood
posts standing on stone piers. The chimney exterior is also stone.
Proposal
The proposal is a second floor addition and expansion to the rear and sides. New exterior finishes and details
will match existing. The chimney will be raised per code requirements. The existing window in the front porch
will be replaced with an entry door, the existing side facing entry door will be closed. The window arrangement
on the side and rear elevations and roof design reflect changes to the interior.
Policy & Design Guidelines for Additions (p. 36)
Additions to existing structures in Local Historic Districts have a responsibility to complement the original
structure. Additions should reflect the design, scale and architectural style of the original structure. The
following guidelines are intended to encourage addition designs that are compatible with the existing structure,
while not fully mimicking the original design.
1
2.
Additions must respect the original character of the property, but must be distinguishable from
the original construction.
3.
All additions to the front or side of existing properties must be of a design that is sensitive to the
character and massing of the existing structure.
4.
Additions to the front or side of existing structures that are substantially visible from a street must
go before the full Commission.
Windows and Doors (p. 26)
4.
Ideally, window and door openings cannot be reduced or enlarged in size. When approved,
alterations to window and door openings must remain in proper proportion to the overall design
of the building.
5.
All newly installed and replacement windows must have proper trim that recognizes historic
precedent on the building and its context.
Staff Analysis
The proposal meets the applicable guidelines for Additions. However, the Commission shall determine if the
level of proposed exterior alterations makes the property non-contributing.
