When deteriorated beyond repair, they shall be replaced with units and trim resembling the original. Recommended Wood frame storm windows and doors painted 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.

Not Recommended Awnings, hoods, and fake shutters made of metal, vinyl, or fiberglass should not be used if they would detract from the existing character or appearance of the building. SITE VISIT REPORT: Most windows have broken glass. All windows will need to be re-glazed and repainted. Windows are a mix of 6 over 1 cottage style, 1 over 1 double hung and 12 light swing-out. No evidence of rot in sashes, jambs or sills. Wood is solid. Many of the double hung windows have ropes in tact and are operational. Windows are in good candidates for restoration and maintenance. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends denial for replacement and suggests restoration of original wood windows.
