Jeffers & Co. Sponsors: THE CHAIR Mr. Tim Askin said that the application is to demolish utility connectors and install new windows in blank areas and where sky bridges were located. The locations and proportions are generally acceptable. There will also be possible new entrances on Vel Phillips and a third floor area built out. Rooftop mechanicals and screening will be removed. There will be 3 new entrances on the ground floor, which shouldn't have too much impact on the character. Staff recommends approval with conditions, including prohibiting fiberglass windows and adding metal clad windows to match the existing windows. Staff does not support the stucco as proposed as it was not originally stucco. He does not feel this product is a quality product. Staff also recommends returning to the commission for further work and to deny synthetic stucco and fiberglass stucco. Applicants present, but not able to be heard via the videomeeting. A motion was made by Matt Jarosz, seconded by Sally Peltz, that this Resolution be HELD IN COMMITTEE.

Lake Drive, in the North Point North Historic District, for Anna Timms. Sponsors: THE CHAIR Mr. Tim Askin said the proposal is to add a second story to a sun porch to add a master bathroom. Staff doesn't feel the application drawings are adequate for commission approval and the project does not comport with the district guidelines as it alters roof lines, encloses a porch and is visible from the public right of way.

Geraghty House at 2422-2424 W. Kilbourn Ave. in the 4th Ald. District. Sponsors: THE CHAIR Ms. Carlen Hatala said the nomination was done by James Dieter, a neighbor. The house was built in 1889. At one point in time, in 1925, the Klu Klux Klan owned a house next to the house and a hospital acquired the house to serve as housing for nurses upon the passing of Mr. Geraghty. This house was part of an explosion of hospitals on the near west side, excellent example of the architect style and the work of a prominent architect.
