Attachment to Certificate of Appropriateness For: 230East Navarre St. South Bend, Indiana 46601 Meeting Date: June 16, 2014 The windows at 230 East Navarre St. have suffered years of neglect. As evidenced not all windows on the porch addition on the east side of the home were exposed as they were covered with aluminum siding at some point years ago. These windows are being replaced with vinyl double hung windows with pane glass in each sash (8 windows in total) The picture windows on the front of the home are bowing. When looking at them it is obvious they were changed to picture windows at some point years ago, as the trim work surrounding the windows was filled in with wood to cover the holes where the double -hung trim work spilt the window opening into two. The bottom sash is the wrong size for the west facing dining room window The small window in the kitchen on the rear south west side of the home is missing most it's frame and is covered with plexi -glass. A lot of the windows in the home are missing sills, ropes, hardware, etc. The home has no storm windows. The back window in the middle of the upper story on the south side of the home hangs so high, from the interior it is unreachable from the staircase, too high to see out of, and looks basically out of place from the interior. I am proposing that all windows be replaced with white vinyl that will replicate the existing windows but provide for the same architectural effects with pane glass top sash. The window in the staircase will be a larger window with pane glass top and bottom sashes The front picture windows will be pane glass top sash double hung windows to fit each opening The fence will be of wood material and will not extend into the from yard of the home, but only from the east front corner going east to the property line and then on the west side of the home between the garage and home with a gate in that opening and square top trellis at the gate perimeters. Removal of sidewalk and steps at the east side of the property heading south into the backyard and replace with dirt/sod Replace any existing sidewalks in same location and driveway
