Description: Review of design revisions since previous approval of renovation of existing Contributing and Non-Contributing rated one and two-story mixed-use buildings.

Previous ARC Recommendations:

10/19/2021: The ARC voted to recommend conceptual approval with the details to be worked out at the Staff level. The ARC agreed that the 6-over-2 windows proposed at the new construction infill are more of a Craftsman style and are too suggestive of an early 20th century design. The ARC recommended the applicant consider either a 1-over-1 or 2-over-2 window at these locations instead. The ARC also noted that the 1950s photo documentation for replacing the bracket-supported awning over the second-floor balcony with a post-supported system was not necessarily definitive. The ARC agreed that the overall look of the post-supported balcony appears more like a rear dependency rather than a main structure at a prominent corner and recommended the applicant consider the bracket-supported approach instead.

Previous Commission Actions:
