Recommendation

The Commission regrets that original wood window sashes, in good condition, at the front and north facades of this historic structure, part of a row of five houses dating from 1889, were replaced without a permit with fiberglass windows with full screens contrary to the previous recommendation of 18 September 2009 that the windows be retained and repaired as necessary. See attached previous Recommendation (OG 09-315). Recommend AGAINST issuance of permit for existing fiberglass window sashes which would remove the original historic wood windows and replace them with new windows whose character, material and detailing are not appropriate to the building and the historic district.
