Staff Review
Application for a Certificate of Appropriateness
June 12, 2013
ADDRESS OF PROPERTY:
621 East Tremont Avenue, Dilworth Local Historic District
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
Second-story Addition
OWNER:
Angela Cardone
APPLICANT:
Angela Cardone
HDC 2013-068
Details of Proposed Request
This is a c. 1915 house that is located mid-block on Tremont. It is one story and to be completely transformed
by adding a second story. New elements include two steep gables on the front – one for the second floor and
the other as an entry element with a swoop on one side. A shed dormer will be added to side of new primary
front facing gable. Many new design elements and new materials will be introduced. The Commission Deferred
the application due lack of sufficient information regarding the context of the street and the immediate context.
Also an approvable application would be a little more modest.

Staff Analysis
Though materials and details and style elements shown are appropriate to several of the Local Historic Districts,
it will be up to the Commission to determine if THIS transformation is appropriate to this particular location and
to this particular house.
