HEMA-2025-03 – The A.L. Glines House (1804 N. Greenleaf Street) September 23, 2025 Page 3 • Gable vents • High-pitched cross gable and hipped roof • Bay window • Exterior and interior chimneys The garage was converted to a living space at an unknown date. It displays a concrete slab foundation, rectangular floor plan, wood frame, horizontal wood board wall cladding, flat roof, and simple parapet. Double carriage doors are located on the east elevation. Accordion doors span the north and west elevations. An unpermitted pergola is located on the north elevation. Character defining features of the garage include the north façade parapet and double carriage doors on the east façade. Project Description The project applicants are proposing a series of modifications to add a rear second story addition to the residence, including the construction of a new roof and upper walls and interior remodeling to create new interior living space, in addition to legalizing an unpermitted upper-story bathroom addition. Construction of the new addition will produce a gabled rear roof with asphalt shingles supported by stucco -clad walls flush with the planes of the existing walls. All proposed windows will include wood sashes and f eature hung and awning operability. Finally, work proposed for the detached garage will legalize unpermitted alterations. In consultation with staff, the applicant and project architect have made certain changes to the project as originally proposed in order to ensure the project will be consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards (SOIS). Although the project originally proposed the inclusion of new vinyl windows on the proposed addition and retention of vinyl windows where they exist, the project was modified to replace all proposed and existing vinyl windows with hung and casement wood-sash windows generally consistent with the materials, size, and operability of the historical windows on the second story. Staff initially recommended a two-to-three-foot setback to ensure the exterior form of the addition will be differentiated from the historic building. The project applicant stated this would not be recommended because such a setback would reduce the interior plan of the addition by four to six feet in total in three directions. Structurally, the setback would require introducing new footings, steel columns and beams, which would reduce the useable interior of the ground-floor spaces and would not be economically feasible relative to a potential return on the investment. In coordination with staff , the applicants and project architect agreed, as an alternative to a setback, to retain and/or restore the historical eave-line molding, which will differentiate the new and old construction. Exterior work on the residence is described in more detail below. Alterations to the primary east façade would include: None Historic Resources Commission 228 9/23/2025
