Adjournment MEMORANDUM DATE: MAY 10 , 1990 TO: HISTORIC PRESERVATION BOARD FROM: PAT CAYCE SUBJECT: AGENDA REPORT FOR HPB MEETING THURSDAY MAY 17, 1990 1 . Roll Call 2 . COA 8-109 60 Marine Way, The Anchorage, Dennis Nagel, President of the Condominium Association. Replace glass enclosure on second story front porch with clear vinyl and white aluminum frames . Replace window on second floor, east end of building. Repair or replace sign on south east corner of building. Originally the upstairs porch was enclosed only by the roof and railing. Some years ago, in order to afford more living space for the second story apartments, the porch was enclosed with plate glass and aluminum tracks . Due to age and weathering this enclosure is in danger of collapsing. The plate glass is heavy and cumbersome to slide on the tracks. The applicant is requesting approval to install clear vinyl sliding panels to be supported by white enameled aluminum frames . This vinyl is similar to that used on boats and on the rear windows of convertibles . Mr. Nagel has told me that you cannot tell the difference between the vinyl and glass until you touch it. He will bring a sample to the meeting. I spoke with the contractor, Mr. Van of Delray Windows, he told me that the vinyl panels will be screened and that the finished appearance is that of a screened porch. Unfortunately there is nowhere in the area, according to Mr. Van, that we could view the finished product. I am totally unfamiliar with this window treatment and have never seen it used. I hope that some of you have seen it in place and can make informed comments. The east window on the second floor is rotted and leaking. The applicant requests permission to install a similar window. In the application Mr. Nagel states "repair/replace the window and surrounding frame to cure the leaking. Our intention is to save what we can of the original parts and replace and/or replicate what we can' t" . However, the spec sheet included with the COA clearly shows an aluminum window. The sign is to be repaired or replaced in the same style and size. 3 . COA 8-108 234 S. Ocean Blvd. , Harold Kurlan, Owner. Presented by Mark Little, Bright Image Signs, Authorized Agent. This request is for a double sign with the panels at a 45 degree angle. Each panel is 5 ' x 4 ' and 7 ' above ground. It will be made of plywood and mounted on 3 4" x 6" posts. Sign is to be located at the corner of AlA and Nassau Street. 4 . COA 8-058A Continuation. 503 N.E. 2nd Avenue, Gerald Kunze, Owner. Mr. Kunze came before the HPB in June, 1989 for COA approval. He is proposing some changes to the approved plans. I am enclosing both the old and the new plans so that you can compare. On the west elevation he plans to close the front door with a semicircular wall of glass block and a slightly elevated roof line. He proposes to glass block the window to the left of the door. On the East elevation he originally planned to construct a ramp in front of the double doors (entrance to office) . He is now planning to add a covered porch with substantial pillars and an elevated roof line over the ramp. The decorative horizontal bands above the windows are to be cement with a faux marble finish. Some of what looks to be glass block on the drawings is actually tile. I have indicated this on the drawings. The tile to be used is gold metallic finish and the glass block would be tinted gold.I have asked Mr. Kunze to bring samples of both tile and glass block. I suggested to the applicant that he use colorless glass block and substitute the tile for a painted, boarder type panel, beneath the windows and on the columns or else leave them alone. The original COA gave approval for a 6 ' tall fence on the north and east property lines. However, no approval was given for the short fence that has been erected on the west (N.E. 2nd Ave. ) side of the lot. • 5 . COA 8-088 Continuation. 798 N.E. 2nd Avenue. Dr. William Domeyer, Owner. Consider and make a recommendation the the City Commission regarding the applicant' s request for a waiver of hedge and curbing requirements. Dr. Domeyer wants to eliminate the hedge and curb stop requirements. Stan Weedon will fill you in on this at the meeting. 6 . COA 8-110 401 N.E. 2nd Avenue, Charles Goodson, Owner or Fred Wyckoff, Authorized Agent. Install garage doors on building facing N.E. 4th Street. The owner of the building was given a code violation notice on March 22 , 1990 for faulty wiring and rotted wood on the framework for the garage openings. He is asking for approval to install garage doors in both empty openings. Recommend that the doors should be made of wood and match the existing doors to the east. I spoke with Jerry Sanzone and found that the City cannot require the applicant to put doors on the garage. The applicant does not know this and I didn' t tell him. I feel that the door replacement will have a positive effect on the appearance of the N.E. 4th St facade of the building. 7. Discussion of "House of the Month Award Banner" Alice Finst has suggested that an awards program be set up within the historic districts to give recognition to the outstanding rehab of the month.
