Reroof single-family dwelling with a metal roof (B)
Petition HP-20-105. Alejandro & Camille Pauly, owners. Certificate of Appropriateness to reroof an existing single-family dwelling with a metal roof. Located at 300 NE 10th Avenue. This building is a contributing structure to the Northeast Residential Historic District.
Project Description
The existing single-family dwelling is a one-story early Ranch style house with a hipped roof form and a horizontality characteristic of the style.

The work involved renailing the decking to meet building code requirements, building up the flat section of the roof, replacing the drip edges, sealing all of the penetrations, installation of the underlayment, and installing the panels. The roof has already been installed. The applicants submitted a Certificate of Appropriateness application for the proposal to be heard at the December Historic Preservation Board meeting.
