To:Heritage Preservation Commission Item Type: Report and Recommendation From:Emily Bodeker, Assistant City Planner Item Activity: Subject:Certificate Of Appropriateness: 4531 Bruce Avenue Action CITY OF EDINA 4801 West 50th Street Edina, MN 55424 www.edinamn.gov ACTION REQUESTED: Approve the certificate of appropriateness for 4531 Bruce Avenue for changes to the front façade. INTRODUCTION: The subject property, 4531 Bruce Avenue is located at the northeast corner of Bruce Avenue and Bridge Street. The home is a two-story colonial revival style, built in 1934. The Certificate of Appropriateness request entails additions to the home that are visible from Bridge Street. The project includes two additions to the Bridge street façade of the existing home. One proposed addition is to the second floor above an existing first floor porch, the second is a one stall garage addition adjacent to the existing attached two stall garage. Both of the proposed additions will match the existing materials of the home. ATTACHMENTS: Description Staff Report Vogel Memo Applicant Submittal Aerial Map July 9, 2019 Heritage Preservation Commission Emily Bodeker, Assistant City Planner Certificate of Appropriateness: 4531Bruce Avenue-Changes to Street Facing Facades Information / Background: The subject property, 4531 Bruce Avenue is located at the northeast corner of Bruce Avenue and Bridge Street. The home is a two-story colonial revival style, built in 1934. The Certificate of Appropriateness request entails additions to the home that are visible from Bridge Street. The project includes two additions to the Bridge street façade of the existing home. One proposed addition is to the second floor above an existing first floor porch, the second is a one stall garage addition adjacent to the existing attached two stall garage. Both of the proposed additions will match the existing materials of the existing house. The proposed additions and project meets all of the City’s setbacks, alternate setbacks, lot coverage, and zoning requirements of the City’s code. Primary Issues: The proposed building addition will be visible one of the street facades of the subject property which is why this project requires a Certificate of Appropriateness. The District plan of treatment recommends rehabilitation as the most appropriate treatment for historic homes in the Country Club District. The general standards outlined in the plan of treatment allow for the construction of structural additions provided the new work is architecturally compatible with the historic house and other historic homes in the neighborhood. STAFF REPORT Page 2 Preservation Consultant Robert Vogel’s Comments: “The subject property is a two-story Colonial revival style residence built in 1934. A large flat-roofed rear addition was built in 1986 (before COAs were required for new construction). The house is not individually eligible for heritage landmark designation but contributes to the historic significance and integrity of the district as a whole and is therefore considered a heritage preservation resource. The owner proposed to construct two small structural additions. By ordinance, COAs are required for new construction in the Country Club District. Although the district plan of treatment does not provide specific guidelines for design review of structural additions, the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties (the required basis for COA decisions) include guidelines for applying the general standards for rehabilitation to these types of projects. In my professional opinion, the proposed additions would be appropriate because the addition built in 1986 has not acquired historic significance in its own right, therefore no significant historic architectural features will be altered or destroyed. As defined in the city’s preservation ordinance, rehabilitation can include alterations so long as the new work preserves those portions of a property which are significant to its historical and architectural values. Based on the plans presented with the COA application, neither addition will substantially alter the scale, proportions and massing of the existing house. Because they will be located on a secondary elevation, the proposed alterations will have minimal impact on the historic character of the district as a whole. The project narrative indicates the new work will be visually compatible with the architectural character of the 1934 house. Therefore, I recommend approval of the COA.” Staff Recommendation & Findings: Staff concurs with Consultant Vogel’s evaluation of the proposed plans for the addition at 4531 Bruce Avenue, also recommending approval of the Certificate of Appropriateness request. Findings supporting the recommendation include: • The plans provided with subject request clearly illustrate the scale and scope of the proposed projects. • The proposed addition would not detract with the historic character of the house. • The information provided supporting the subject Certificate of Appropriateness meets the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance and the Country Club District Plan of Treatment. Conditions for approval: • The plans presented MEMORANDUM TO: Emily Bodeker, Assistant City Planner FROM: Robert Vogel, Preservation Planning Consultant DATE: June 24, 2019 SUBJECT: COA for 4531 Bruce Avenue I have reviewed the plans and supporting documents provided in relation to the COA application for alteration of the house located at 4531 Bruce Avenue in the Country Club District. The subject property is a two-story Colonial Revival style residence built in 1934. A large flat- roofed rear addition was built in 1986 (before COAs were required for new construction). The house is not individually eligible for heritage landmark designation but contributes to the historic significance and integrity of the district as a whole and is therefore considered a heritage preservation resource. The owner proposes to construct two small structural additions. By ordinance, COAs are required for new construction in the Country Club District.
