Title
Northeast Residential Historic District. Certificate of Appropriateness for window and garage door replacement at 416 NE 10th Avenue.
Petition HP-17-64. Tyler Sterrett, owner. Application for Certificate of Appropriateness for window and garage door replacement. Located at 416 NE 10th Avenue. The property is contributing to the Northeast Residential Historic District.
Explanation
The existing house is a 1957 one-story masonry structure with hip roof. The lot (10318-000-000) is .24 acres in size and is zoned RSF-3, single-family residential. The existing windows are aluminum and jalousie, often ganged in twos or threes. The proposal is to replace the existing windows with vinyl and pvc fixed, casement and slider windows, to match the existing ganged configurations of the windows. The existing garage doors are metal and do not operate. The proposal is to replace with Haas 2410 segmented garage doors with windows.
Replacing jalousies and aluminum windows has become fairly standard due to the poor thermal performance of both elements. As the new windows aim to retain the ganged character of the existing windows, Staff finds the replacements appropriate. Staff does not find the existing garage doors to be a character-defining feature of the house. Staff finds the proposed doors a compatible contemporary design.
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of HP-17-64.
