Street SE (CPD 18-1550)
Commissioners noted the house has new wood windows that are an appropriate
replication of the original windows. Based on a review of the historic photograph,
Commissioners observed the chimney was shortened. Commissioners also noted the
new addition, currently under construction, is an appropriate addition. All agreed the
integrity of the setting, design, location and materials have been well maintained.
Commissioner Swalling moved, seconded by Commissioner Newmann, to
recommend approval of the property located at 2418 Otis Street to be
included in the Olympia Heritage Register. The motion carried by the
following vote:
Aye: 3 - Commissioner Miller, Commissioner Newmann and Commissioner

After discussion and deliberation, the Commissioners agreed the property not be
included in the Olympia Heritage Register. The building's historical integrity has been
compromised significantly. Original windows have been replaced with vinyl windows; the
front door has been replaced with a fiberglass door; the siding has been replaced with a
wider lap siding; a carport has been added to the building; and brick wainscoting has
been added around the building envelope. Lastly, the historic significance of persons or
groups identified with the property is not significant enough to warrant placement on the
Olympia Heritage Register.
Commissioner Swalling moved, seconded by Commissioner Newmann, to
recommend denial of inclusion of the property located at 2419 Otis Street in
the Olympia Heritage Register. The motion carried by the following vote.
Aye: 3 - Commissioner Miller, Commissioner Newmann and Commissioner
Swalling
Excused: 3 - Chair Kelly, Commissioner Harkness and Commissioner Vann
