Walls are of stretcher bond dark brick and shingle siding. The shallowly sloped roof has wide eaves and brackets support- ing the soffit with exposed rafter tails. The windows are 1/1 double hung. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: The applicant has requested approval to: 1) Repair of the existing water table, siding, and masonry in kind. The 10’ water table (currently exposed concrete block) to be coated with a new stucco, and existing stucco on rear second story wing also to be repaired in kind. Masonry to be restored with bricks original to the home. The approximate third of siding that is missing from the rear of the house to be replaced with in-kind cedar shingles painted to match. 2) Construct a rear porch approximately 6’ deep by 12’ long (see attached designs), and shift the exiting rear door by three feet to acommodate a more spatious kitchen layout. Structure to be wood with concrete piers faced with masonry brick, hollow core fiberglass columns, and Trex decking. STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: Porches: Pages 17-18 SITE VISIT REPORT: N/A STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The proposed repairs to the water table, siding, and masonry are sound ave- nues of repair using appropriate materials. The design and footprint of the proposed porch is in keeping with the massing and scale of a rear porch, and Staff feels that the proposed designs are sympathetic to the existing home and neighborhood. Staff is favorable to either design (Proposal Version 1 or Proposal Version 2). Given the infor- mation provided prior to this public hearing, Staff makes a FAVORABLE RECOMMENDATION.

The first is in- kind repair of the existing water table, siding, and masonry. The masonry will be restored with salvaged bricks that are original to the home. Approximately one-third of the rear siding is missing; this will be replaced with in-kind cedar shingles painted to match that are on average 5 ½” wide with an exposure of 9 ½". An existing rear door is situated in the center of the existing kitchen layout, to accommodate a more functional spatial kitchen layout the rear door will be shifted by three feet, see drawn elevation depicted in a dashed line for the existing door. The 10' water table (currently exposed concrete block) will be parged with a new stucco. The stucco on the rear 2nd story wing will be repaired in kind as well. The second phase will be the re-construction of a rear porch approximately 6' deep by 12' long. Demolition of an existing rear wing conducted before the relocation uncovered an original rear porch shed roof that was later extended (c. 1945). This along with other evidence on the rear wall indicated a porch existed in generally the same location as the new intended proposal, as can be seen in the attached photograph figure (1). The design is not a one-for-one replacement of the previous addition but is still done in a style that is appropriate to the character of the home. The design utilizes craftsman motifs that occur around the exterior of the home such as exposed rafters, beadboard soffit, and pilaster proportions, see figure (2). The design also pulls on elements featured around the neighborhood, particularly the side porch shed roof on house 605 Portage Ave, South Bend, IN 46616, see figure (3). The construction of the porch will consist of a primary wood structure, that is supported on the front corners with concrete piers that are faced with masonry brick that either has been salvaged from the existing supply or is sourced to closely match. 3 KH, $20.00 IOU from previous extra payment, Indiana Landmarks 4/17/2025 Above the two piers a pair of hollow core fiberglass tapered columns with a (base width of 16", and a top width of 12") will support an (8" x 8" x 12') cedar beam. The floor will be a fir tongue and groove which will be paired with an exposed tongue and groove open rafter ceiling. The roof will be clad in architectural shingles to match the main body of the house. The main house roof is proposed to be refinished in new architectural shingles in a wood tone - specific manufacturer and color to be presented to staff at a later time.
