Permit #: 25-06050-HDLC
Description: Demolition of more than 50% of the roof and wall structure at a Contributing rated, one-story, single-family residential building.
Staff Recommendations:
FEMA survey research indicates that 8510 Cohn was constructed some time between 1895-1905. The single shotgun retains it's original massing with two rear additions. The proposed renovation seeks to remove the two rear additions and add a camelback addition roughly two rooms back from the front wall of the building. The total amount of roof demolition is 57%. The Guidelines for full control districts recommends camelback additions start at least two rooms back and removal of more than 50% of the roof is approvable. Staff recommends approval of the demolition of more than 50% of the roof structure.
Recommendation: Approve
