HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION
| ADOPTED
Minutes note: Ms. Hatala said that this project involves work on the porch. There is currently a stone porch with wood posts and a bay at the front. This type of porch was very popular for a time with no roof over the rounded end of the porch. The porch deck and cement columns are in poor condition. A full front porch was built after 1910 and a bay added probably at the same time. One of the concerns of staff is extending the roof and possibly altering an existing window. The homeowner also wants to remove an existing window on the second floor, although it is not known from which era the window is from. Staff recommends approval with conditions.
Jeff Waldorf - owner of the property - the window casing is post-World War II and he thinks the window was added in the 1960s based upon the framing and casing. The one fluted column is slowly being destroyed. There never was a roof over this portion of the porch. There are no footers on the column, which is why it is sinking. He will re-use the lannon stone exterior.
