Description: Massing approval of the renovation and camelback addition of existing building and new construction of a 980 SF second primary structure at a Contributing rated, one-story, single-family residential building.

Previous ARC Recommendations:

1/17/23: The ARC voted to conceptual approval of massing for your application.

• The sides of the addition should be weatherboards to visually tie it to the shotgun. The camelback with the balcony and terrace to remain stucco.

• The terrace rail, and recessed balcony side materiality can be lighter in nature with the suggestion of screening.

• Once materiality is explored the application should be placed on the ARC agenda.

12/20/22: The ARC voted to defer your application for additional review. The ARC agreed that:

• The first scheme presented is preferable to the two stand alone buildings.

• Renovating a single story, single bay shotgun to a 3 story building is overwhelming.

• Multiple building/addition massing iterations should be explored to address neighboring buildings.

• A meeting with you and HDLC Staff should occur prior to the next ARC submission.

11/15/22: The ARC voted to defer your application for additional review. The ARC agreed that:

• The massing of the 3 story addition is not appropriate contextually with respect to the existing 1 story shotgun.

• The camel back should be at least 2 rooms back at the existing building.

• Three stories may not be appropriate for the size of the lot.

• A 3D model with street views will help show design and intent.
