<br />STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: CHAPIN PARK <br />II. EXISTING STRUCTURES <br />[…] <br />C. WINDOWS AND DOORS <br />Window and door frames are in most cases wood and vary depending upon the style of the home. Many are double-hung windows with <br />wood trim and sills. Brick structures have stone sills and brick lintels. In some cases where aluminum siding has been applied, the window <br />and door trim has been covered. About half of the structures in the district have aluminum storm windows; the other half have wood storm <br />windows. <br />Required <br />Original windows and doors shall be retained including sashes, lintels, sills, shutters, decorative glass, pediments, hoods and hardware. <br />When deteriorated beyond repair, they shall be replaced with units and trim resembling the original. <br />Recommended <br />Wood storm windows and doors painted or finished to match the original should be used but should not damage existing frames. If new <br />sashes or doors are installed, the existing or original materials, design and hardware should be used. When metal storm doors are used, <br />they should be painted, anodized or coated to match the existing. When awnings are used, they should be of canvas material. <br /> <br /> <br />SITE VISIT REPORT: <br />Inspector Ross Van Overberghe and (then) Specialist Adam Toering visited the property on May 28th, 2020 to <br />discuss potential projects and assess window conditions. The retrofitted windows exhibited ‘gas’ failure, as the <br />seals of the windows were failing as the wood expanded and contracted. Some windows exhibited cracked meeting <br />rails where the locks had not had their screws pre-drilled when installed, leading to the rails breaking/cracking. This <br />visit followed e-mail correspondence between the property owner and Administrator Elicia Feasel regarding the <br />application process. <br /> <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval for the replacement of the proposed window with an <br />Andersen 100 series window, as the garage addition is considered a later / secondary addition that has been <br />extensively modified. <br /> <br />Prepared by <br />Adam Toering, Historic Preservation Administrator
