PROPERTY ADDRESS:
1701 Park Road
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
New Construction
OWNER:
RAM Construction
APPLICANT:
RAM Construction
Application for a Certificate of Appropriateness
Date: September 10, 2014
The application was continued in August for more information regarding the front porch roof design,
dimensions of the house footprint and other site plan dimensions and additional setback information.
Details of Proposed Request
Existing Conditions
The existing parcel is vacant. The surrounding context is a variety of single family structures and two multifamily structures. Building heights range between 1 and 2 stories. The topography slopes downward gradually
from East Boulevard.
Proposal
The proposal is a 2 story single family dwelling, approximately 29’ in height from finished floor elevation (FFE) to
the ridge. The design features include a front porch with gable and hip roof that reflects the roof design of the
primary structure, a ‘porte cohere’ with heated space on the second level, exposed rafter tails, eave brackets, 3
over 1 windows, cedar shake and horizontal wood siding, and stone on the foundation and chimney. The
proposed setback is consistent with 1709 Park Road (right).
Revised Proposal – August 13, 2014
1. Setbacks – The proposed setback is approximately 62’7” from right of way (ROW). The adjacent
properties are approx. 65’ and 60’ from ROW.
2. Fenestration – Cross sections and window detail notes have been provided on the plans. Windows to be
wooden double hung.
3. Details – Sections for porch column and beam, brackets and hand rails have been provided.
Revised Proposal – September 10, 2014
1. Setbacks – Site plan shows setback relative to adjacent structures.
2. Porch Roof – The front porch roof has been redesigned to match the front gable.
3. Dimensions – Dimensions of the house footprint have been added.
Policy & Design Guidelines
New construction in Local Historic Districts has an obligation to blend in with the historic character and scale of
the Local Historic District in which it is located. Designs for infill projects and other new construction within
designated Local Historic Districts must be designed with the surroundings in mind. The Historic District
Commission will not specify a particular architectural style or design for new construction projects. The scale,
mass and size of a building are often far more important than the decorative details applied. However, well
1
designed stylistic and decorative elements, as well as building materials and landscaping, can give new
construction projects the attributes necessary to blend in with the district, while creating a distinctive character
for the building. New construction projects in Local Historic Districts must be appropriate to their surroundings.
The Historic District Commission will review the building details for all new construction as part of their
evaluation of new construction project proposals.
All New Construction Projects Will Be Evaluated
For Compatibility By The Following Criteria
1. Size
the relationship of the project to its site
2. Scale
the relationship of the building to those around it
3. Massing
the relationship of the building’s various parts to each other
4. Fenestration
the placement, style and materials of windows and doors
5. Rhythm
the relationship of fenestration, recesses and projections
6. Setback
in relation to setback of immediate surroundings
7. Materials
proper historic materials or approved substitutes
8. Context
the overall relationship of the project to its surroundings
9. Landscaping as a tool to soften and blend the project with the district
Staff Analysis
The Commission will determine if the project meets the unresolved design guidelines.
