APPLICABLE WOODSON TERRACE HISTORIC DISTRICT DESIGN GUIDELINES 1.2.2 General Principles - Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather than replaced whenever possible. In the event replacement is necessary, the new material should match the material being replaced in composition, design, color, texture, and other visual qualities. L2.3 Architectural Features - Original features should be retained if at all possible, The replacement of irreparable features should be with close visual approximations of the originals. The replacement of missing original features should be based on accurate duplication, or should be close visual approximations of the originals based on historic, physical, or pictorial documentation. Architectural features of any period or style not original to the building should not be introduced, If artificial siding materials are used, soffits, eaves, and porch ceilings should not be concealed. 1.3.3 Guidelines for New Construction 1.3.3.8 Additions to Existine Buildingq New additions to existing buildings should be kept to a minimum and should be compatible in scale, materials, and texture; additions should not be visually jarring or contrasting. Additions to the front of a building should be consistent with the architectural style of the existing structure. Additions may be located to the rear of existing buildings in ways which do not disturb the public façades, The creation ofan addition through enclosure ofa front façade porch is inappropriate and should be avoided. 1.5 DEMOLITION 1.5.1 Definition: The tearing down of a building. 1.5.2 General Principles Since the purpose of historic zoning is to protect historic properties, the demolition of a building which contributes historically or architecturally to the character and significance ofthe district is inappropriate and should be avoided. 1.5.3 Guidelines 1.5.3.1 Demolition is Inappropriate: o If a building is of such architectural or historical interest and value that its removal would be detrimental to the public interest; o If a building is of such old or uncommon design and materials that it could not be reproduced or be reproduced without great difficulty and expense; or ¡ If its proposed replacement would make a less positive visual contribution to the district, or would be visually incompatible. 1.5.3.2 Demolition is Appropriate: o If a building has lost its architectural and historical integrity and importance and its removal will not result in a more negative, less appropriate visual effect on the district; o Ifa building does not contribute to the historical or architectural character and importance ofthe district and its removal will result in a more positive, appropriate visual effect on the district. ANALYSIS Applicant requests approval of a Certificate of Appropriateness for the demolition of a porch and a deck to be replaced with an enclosed pantry and deck, located in the rear of the existing house. The property is located at 355 E. Eastland Street and within the Woodson Tenace Historic District. This property is cunently zoned Residential-l0 (R10) with an Hl historic zoning overlay (Rl0, Hl). Historícal Døtu The property contains a one-and-a-half story dwelling that was constructed in 1936 according to the Tax Assessor's Office and Sanborn Insurance Maps of Gallatin. The dwelling consists of painted brick with a front-facing gabled porch with three (3) arches, an asphalt-shingled roofl, and two (2) gabled dormers. A back enclosed porch and open deck were added to the residence at some point. The date of origin is not known, but they don't appear to be original to the house. Exístíng ønd Proposed Porch/Deck The applicant is requesting a Certificate of Appropdateness in order to demolish the existing porch and deck and replace them with an enclosed pantry and new deck. The deck is in various states of deterioration and is due for a remodel/replacement. The existing back porch will be replaced with a pantry for the kitchen and will include a new block foundation with a stone façade and handi-siding. The pantry will be painted to match the house and trim colors. The existing deck will be removed and replaced with a new deck with a slanted metal roof and railings consisting of aluminum spindles. The new deck will meet the lO-foot side yard setback. The existing deck is only eight (8) feet from the property line. Both additions will be on the rear of the existing house and will have minimal impact on the view of the house from the street. The General Principles of the Woodson Terrace Historic District Design Guidelines state that ooin the event replacement is necessary, the new material should match the material being replaced in composition, design, color, texture, and other visible qualities". Additionally, the guidelines further elaborate that "Additions may be located to the rear of existing buildings in wayS which do not disturb the public façades." Staff believes that the homeowners have taken the necessary measures to preserve the existing historic home. The new additions will not increase the overall footprint of the house or be visible from the street, will complement the existing home, and will provide a safer structure for the homeowner to use. Staff believes that the replacements will make a positive visual contribution to the property and the historic district overall. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of a Certificate of Appropriateness for the demolition of a porch and a deck to be replaced with an enclosed pantry and deck at 355 E. Eastland Street with the following conditions: 1. The deck shall meet all current setback requirements, including the 10-foot side yard. 2. The applicant shall acquire a permit from the Codes Department if required. Untitled Map Legend rVrite a description for your map. ç 355 E Easfland St  WOODSOT{ TERRACE HISTORIC I"¡TSTRICT Gallatin" Tennessee DATE: q.f ADDRESS OF PROPERTY : 3 Sf Eo if Ëu*t lo nJ TAX N{AP: il1 ** €" PARCEL NO.: ,7 ^l PROPERTY OIAINER: I)o .r iJ a r.J- Ro.., ß fQ(4) rl DESCRIPTiON OF PROPERTY )- + ¡ iì. fi -î. 2'2- AÏTACHIJIE.NT  R r ¡v, I rl- -t- I lrr F.- p ( tô l- ¡- ! \ ) JI \ ¡ l'l I fì ,\l tl I 14 ñ- l I I { I- < I I b J tn \ )l I I ( ir -t \l t' À Þ_ á-I* ï. ñs G Þ { t-l tti l: I R-. 4 \ I x () P *t ! c .ç I 6 ê, /¿ -l ) ( å ! st 1 t\ 'l ,], a { 4 Jo L I \ tl K) 5 ( ¡ hr r'l Ð t. ñ N ¡î' I Ul I c) b L4 + li *l J) n fi l* ¡..- l¡r I I I ç i- .t) I I \, b ¡ n t- b ñ, 4 I o -'-f- \h Ë; I -l I >l C) I q liI --"1 J. i if Ê I \ (l - = [Tl -l \ z. l c t1 -| l\ ì t I n ì'-) ô '.Ë ü: .,1 I x l l ù ()J tf *fi J I ,rr) rl I I i I ¡) ' r-l r=f ù -Er 0 5 ¡n :l |= t I /r ) rl \ 0 ) lìl T !: T J ¡ I I ì o ) C J) c t I Õ T + \ì È ' I ur :u Ò ¡ft h l- 'I h-r .4Tl¡¡ p  {-^r ò, tN v) R!3u Rt uGf{ .çt nÊ.Nc:E @' 3IJ-F, E*srta-at ITE F¿ d,,rl I (o'Lau" I I i'I--.'
