(4) Multi-Family Residential Building Design and Materials <br /> (A) Fagades <br /> (i) All residential buildings must be designed with common elements <br /> including but not limited to clearly defined front doors/entries, <br /> front porches articulated rooflines, and balanced/symmetrical <br /> fenestration on the primary fagade. <br /> (ii) Residential buildings that have identifiable architectural styles <br /> must incorporate elements and details that remain consistent with <br /> that style. <br /> (iii) Non-contextual facades that do not relate to the street, adjacent <br /> properties, and the general neighborhood character are prohibited. <br /> (iv) Unarticulated, Modern Style building facades are prohibited. <br /> (v) Front building facades must be oriented toward, and parallel to, all <br /> primary street frontages including corner lots. <br /> (vi) Building designs that create blank wall conditions facing primary <br /> or secondary streets are prohibited. <br /> (vii) The front door(s) must be a prominent and welcoming feature on <br /> the front facade of the house and must face the primary street <br /> frontage. Building designs that create blank wall conditions facing <br /> the street or orient front doors so that they are not visible from the <br /> street are prohibited. <br /> (viii) Primary entries and windows, rather than garage doors, must be the <br /> dominant elements of the front facade. <br /> (ix) Street-facing facades of attached buildings must incorporate <br /> horizontal bays or vertical articulation to create a smaller, and <br /> more individualized building image. <br /> Such facades must maintain a rhythm of smaller buildings <br /> consistent with the surrounding neighborhood. <br /> (x) Interesting architectural details and features are encouraged to <br /> provide layers of interest and variety. <br /> (Xi) Garage doors must face alleys or be oriented away from the <br /> primary street frontage. <br /> 16 <br />
