STAFF REPORT
CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A
CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS
Date: 12 January 2011
Application Number: 2011-0105
Property Location: 216-218 West Washington
Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Late Gothic Revival/1929/Austin&Shambleau
Property Owner: Hebard&Uebard
District Designation: Local Landmark/DTSB Multiple Resource National Register District
Rating: Outstanding
DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: South Bend's first "skyscraper" and the only building of its kind in
South Bend that also illustrates the influence of the Chicago Tribune Tower competition. The 12 storey Gothic
structure is faced with terra cotta and marble on the north and east facades and brick on the west and south. The
first two floors of the structure are treated as its base. The main entrance on the Washington street faced, which
extends the height of both floors is a round -arched opening. The doorway has a bronze spandrel topped with
Gothic motifs and a diamond paned window in the tripartite round arch of the tympanum. The third floor acts as a
transitional floor from the base to the Bier -and -spandrel construction of the upper floors with a perpendicular style,
false arcaded logia. The 10"' and 11 floors from the capital of the building: gargoyles are located on three
comers of the 10' floor, the 11 and 12" floors are setback with chamfered comers; and a crenellat6d roof tops the
building.
ALTERATIONS: The terra cotta on the east side of the building has been compromised by changes in
signage over the years. The Commission has always mandated to previous owners that the signs be
attached to the building in the mortar joints. This mandate was not followed in the past.
APPLICATION ITEMS: Installation of new single faced 3'X 81 X 4" thick aluminum sign with Push
Thru Acrylic copy, internal LED illumination
DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Hebard & Hebard have engaged Vanadco Signs to'create and
install a sign for Hebard and Hebard Architects. It will be an all aluminum cabinet and face panel. The routed
aluminum face will have 5/8" thick clear acrylic push through lettering with a white and red 3M translucent 2nd
surface applied vinyl. The YX 8" X 4" sign will have interior white LED illumination. The sign will be installed
with anchors through grout joints; existing electrical conduit left from previous tenant will be utilized.
STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:
F. Signs
No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the structure. Billboards and super graphics
will also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be permitted per business.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval as the proposed sign follows the Group
B Standards for signage.

CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A
CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS
Date: 20 January 2011
Application Number_ : 2011-0120
Property Location: 503 N. Lafayette Blvd.
Architectural Style/Date/Architect or ..Builder: Vernacular -Gable Front/1900
Property Owner: Burton, Raquel
Landmark or District Designation: Chapin Park NRD/LHD
Rating: Non-contributing
DESCRIPTION OF S'T'RUCTURE/ SITE : Vernacular 2 storey gable front single family residence with
wood framed rectangular plan on concrete foundation, parge coated.
ALTERATIONS: Vinyl siding. Replacement 6.16 double hung windows. Glass block windows on South
side. Shutters added to windows. Metal awning over entry doors. Concrete stairs leading into front entry
door. The front entry door and storm door do not appear to be original to the house. Tree removal in rear
and changes to front landscaping approved With COA 2010-0401.
APPLICATION ITEMS: Replace existing entry door (hollow core, wooden) with a galvanized steel
entry door for safety and security purposes as well as energy/insulation loss. Description attached.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT:, Homeowner proposes to remove the older wood front
entry door that has three horizontal windows, one of which is boarded in, and replace it with a solid six
panel steel security door.
STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:
C. '4'INDOWS AND DOORS
Window and door frames are in most cases wood and vary depending upon the style of the home. Many are
doublehung windows with wood trim and sills. Brick structures have stone sills and brick lintels. In some
cases where aluminum siding has been'applied, the window and door trim has been covered. About half of
the structures in the district have aluminum storm windows; the other half have wood storm windows.
Required
Original windows and doors shall be retained including sashes, lintels, sills, shutters, decorative glass,
pediments, hoods and hardware. When deteriorated beyond repair, they shall be replaced with units and
trim resembling the original. Casement windows adapted the English tradition of using wrought iron
casements with leaded comes for residential use. Rolled steel casements (either single, as shown, or paired)
were popular in the 1920s for Cottage -style residences and Gothic -style campus architecture. More
streamlined casements were popular in the 1930s .for institutional and small industrial buildings.
Recommended
Wood storm windows and doors painted or finished to match the original should be used but should not
damage eXisting frames. If new sashes or doors are installed, the existing or original materials, design and
hardware should be used. When metal storm doors are used, they should be painted, anodized or coated to
match the existing. NN'hen awnings are used, they should be of canvas material.
Prohibited
Original doors, windows and hardware shall not be discarded when they can be restored and reused in
place. New window and door openings, which would alter the scale and proportion of the building may not
be introduced. Inappropriate new window and door features such as metal, vinyl or fiberglass awnings,
hoods or aluminum insulating glass combinations that require removal of original windows and doors, shall
not be installed.
Not Recommended
Fake shutters that would detract from the existing character or appearance of the building should not be
used.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the replacement of the wood door with
windows with a solid steel six panel security door. The current door is probably not original to the house
because it is a hollow core door.

Descrintion of Prolect-Entry Door Renlarement
The entry door of my home, 503 N. Lafayette Blvd Is a wooden hollow core door with a thin
glass window at eye level (See Exhibits A and B). The strength of the door, along with the window
placement and locking system would allow for an easy entry Into the home by a burglar or anyone
forcing entry Into the home. All someone would have to do would be to break the very thin glass
window and put their arm in through that opening to unlock the door from the inside (See Exhibit C).
The lack of insulation allows for air to easily pass through the entryway, and I have to close off my
entryway foyer from the remaining house in the winter to keep the cool air from entering the living
areas (See Exhibits D and E), I would like to replace the door with a simply designed 6 -panel galvanized
steel entry door. This door has a one piece Polystyrene core, which provides much needed insulation.
The galvanized steel is rust and corrosion resistant and will not rot or become warped as the wood in
the existing entry door has begun to do in spots (See Exhibit F). The door comes with weatherstripping
and adjustable seal. This door is energy star compliant. The frame of the pre -hung door is wooden.. A
detailed description, photo, and specifications of the door are attached.

STAFF REPORT
CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A
CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS
Date: 12 January 2011
Application Number: 2011-0105
Property Location: 216-218 West Washington
Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Late Gothic Revival/1929/Austin&Shambleau
Property Owner: Hebard&Hebard
District Designation: Local Landmark/DTSB Multiple Resource National Register District
Rating: Outstanding
DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: South Bend's first "skyscraper' and the only building of its kind in
South Bend that also illustrates the influence of the Chicago Tribune Tower competition. The 12 storey Gothic
structure is faced with tensa cotta and marble on the north and east facades and brick on the west and south. The first
two floors of the structure are treated as its base. The main entrance on the Washington street faced, which extends the
height of both floors is a round -arched opening. The doorway has a bronze spandrel topped with Gothic motifs and a
diamond paned window in the tripartite round arch of the tympanum. The third floor acts as a transitional floor from
the base to the pier -and -spandrel construction of the upper floors with a perpendicular style, false arcaded loggia. The
I Uh and 11`h floors from the capital of the building: gargoyles are located on three comers of the 10h floor, the 1 I and
12`h floors are set back with chamfered comers; and a crenellated roof tops the building.
ALTERATIONS: The terra cotta on the east side of the building has been compromised by changes in signage over
the years. The Commission has always mandated to previous owners that the signs be attached to the building in the
mortar joints. This mandate was not followed in the past.
APPLICATION ITEMS: Installation of new single faced 3' X 8'X 4" thick aluminum sign with Push Thru Acrylic
copy, internal LED illumination
DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Hebard & Hebard have engaged Vanadco Signs to create and install
a sign for Hebard and Hebard Architects. It will be an all aluminum cabinet and face panel. The routed aluminum face
will have 5/8" thick clear acrylic push through lettering with a white and red 3M translucent 2nd surface applied vinyl.
The 3'X 8" X 4" sign will have interior white LED illumination. The sign will be installed with anchors through grout
joints; existing electrical conduit left from previous tenant will be utilized.
STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:
F. Signs
No neon or flashing signs will be permitted unless they are original to the structure. Billboards and super graphics will
also be disallowed. Only one appropriate identifying sign will be permitted per business.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval as the proposed sign follows the Group B Standards
for signage.
On a motion by Lynn Patrick with a second by Linda Riley to accept application as
submitted with a modification that contractor will use the existing holes to mount sign as
well as patch the additional holes with patch to be as closely matching as possible.
Vote: 5-0
COA 2011-0105 was approved with conditions.
STAFF REPORT
CONCERNING APPLICATION FOR A
CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS
Date: 20 January 2011
Application Number: 2011-0120
Property Location: 503 N. Lafayette Blvd.
Architectural Style/Date/Architect or Builder: Vernacular -Gable Front/1900
Property Owner: Burton, Raquel
Landmark or District Designation: Chapin Park NRD/LHD
Rating: Non-contributing
DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURE/ SITE: Vernacular 2 storey gable front single family residence with wood
framed rectangular plan on concrete foundation, parge coated.
ALTERATIONS: Vinyl siding. Replacement 6/6 double hung windows. Glass block windows on South side.
Shutters added to windows. Metal awning over entry doors. Concrete stairs leading into front entry door. The front
entry door and storm door do not appear to be original to the house. Tree removal in rear and changes to front
landscaping approved with COA 2010-0401.
APPLICATION ITEMS: Replace existing entry door (hollow core, wooden) with a galvanized steel entry door for
safety and security purposes as well as energy/insulation loss. Description attached.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Homeowner proposes to remove the older wood front entry door that
has three horizontal windows, one of which is boarded in, and replace it with a solid six panel steel security door.
STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:
C. WINDOWS AND DOORS
Window and door frames are in most cases wood and vary depending upon the style of the home. Many are
doublehung windows with wood trim and sills. Brick structures have stone sills and brick lintels. In some cases where
aluminum siding has been applied, the window and door trim has been covered. About half of the structures in the
district have aluminum storm windows; the other half have wood storm windows.
Required
Original windows and doors shall be retained including sashes, lintels, sills, shutters, decorative glass, pediments,
hoods and hardware. When deteriorated beyond repair, they shall be replaced with units and trim resembling the
original. Casement windows adapted the English tradition of using wrought iron casements with leaded cames for
residential use. Rolled steel casements (either single, as shown, or paired) were popular in the 1920s for Cottage -style
residences and Gothic -style campus architecture. More streamlined casements were popular in the 1930s for
institutional and small industrial buildings.
Recommended
Wood storm windows and doors painted or finished to match the original should be used but should not damage
existing frames. If new sashes or doors are installed, the existing or original materials, design and hardware should be
used. When metal storm doors are used, they should be painted, anodized or coated to match the existing. When
awnings are used, they should be of canvas material.
Prohibited
Original doors, windows and hardware shall not be discarded when they can be restored and reused in place. New
window and door openings, which would alter the scale and proportion of the building may not be introduced.
Inappropriate new window and door features such as metal, vinyl or fiberglass awnings, hoods or aluminum insulating
glass combinations that require removal of original windows and doors, shall not be installed.
Not Recommended
Fake shutters that would detract from the existing character or appearance of the building should not be used.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the replacement of the wood door with windows
with a solid steel six panel security door. The current door is probably not original to the house because it is a hollow
core door.
On a motion by Linda Riley to approve with a second by Jerry Niezgodski
Vote: 5-0
COA 2011-0120 was approved with a unanimous vote.
