ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REPORT 5.1 Date: February 15, 2018 To: Design Review Board & Historic Design Review Committee From: David Crompton, Principal Planner RE: 375 Hartz Avenue Xavier-DeSousa
Building DEV16-0103 ______________________________________________________________________________ Building Permit review for a previously approved Development Plan to allow exterior
façade improvements to the front elevation; construction of a 1,721 +/-square foot second story addition; a 195 +/-square foot deck at the rear of the building; a 45 +/-square foot addition
to the rear ground floor; and a 35 +/-square foot trash room to the existing historic building. The front elevation will be restored by removing the rock wainscot and replacing it
with steel trowel stucco, and the historic glass panels across the upper front elevation will be uncovered and restored as original. The applicant is proposing to replace the front
door. The replacement front door should be wood and in-keeping with the historical historical character. A cloth black awning is proposed for the front elevation. Included in the
packet is information from the applicant regarding the historic use/design of awnings. Colors and materials will be presented at the meeting.

little over the course of history. Records dating back to ancient Egypt and S-yria make note of woven mats that shaded market stalls and homes. In the Roman Empire, large retractable
fabric awnings sheltered the seating areas oi amphitheatres and stadiums, inclucling the Coliseum. The Roman poet Lucretius, in 50 8.C., likened thunder to the sound that " linen-awning

Operable Awnings. In the second half of the 19th century, manuf actured operabie awnings grer+' in popularity (FiS. 6). i)reviously, most awnings had fixed frames-the primar)' wav to
retract the covering was to roll it rrp the rafters b1'hand. Operable systems for both storefront ancl lvindorr awnings had extension arms that were hinged where they joined the facade.
The arms rvere lowered to proiect the arn'ning or raised to retract the an,rring using simple rope ancl pulley arrangements. Because the canvas remainect attached to the Éramert'ork,
retractable awnings allowed a more flexible approach to sliading-shopkeepers and ou'ners could incrementaliv adjust the amount of awning coverage dependin¡;
upon the u'eather conditions. When the sun came out from behind clouds, the awnirrg could be deployed with ease. In case of sudden storms, olvners could quicklv retract the arvning against
the builcling wall n'here it was protected from wind gusts. But the early operable an'nings had theìr own dra.wbacks. When retracted, the covering on early operable awnings bunched up
against the building facade where it was stili partially exposed to inclement lr'eather. (In fact, cleterioratiollwas often accelerated as rnoisture pooled in the fabric folds.) Also,
the retracted fabric often obscurec'l a þortion of the windovv or door opening and unless it n'as folded carefulì1', presented an unkempt appearance. ---.+. Figure b. A )9th century

for alternatives. Shortly after World War II, a vinyl plastic coating that increased fade and water resistance r¡'as first applied to the canvas. By the 1960s, vinyì resins, acrvlic

I a'h¡nings. Altì-rough the 1950s ancl 1960s san' the end of tl-re canvas alvning's ubiquitl,on Main Street, it remainecl a mocierately poprrlar feature of residentìai architecturc.
New materials and ieclurologies such as lateral arm operators, acrylic fabric, and alunrinum kept the aw,nin¡; relevant to the postvvar ranch house and afforded an economical way to
update older structures. Colorful arvnings helped sriburbal dr,r'ellers distinguish their homes from other, similar; moclels in the neighborhood. Awnings Today Toclay, awnings come in
a varietv of shapes, sizes, frames ancl fabrics. Fixecl, quarter-round, back-lit awnings lvith broad faces featr,rring company narnes, logos, phone numbers, and street addresses fr¡nction
more as signs than sunshades. Restaurants and othe¡ commercial clrains use illutnirrated awnirrgs witlr rratiurrally recognized brand graphics and stripe and color patterns to attract
customers along suburban strips. The triangular shed hame shape has enjoyecl a resurgence of popularity in recent years, in many cases playing ofi nostalgia for the traditional awning.
Relativell'nerv "staple-in" awnings with a shed shape are commonlr. used on neh'commercial construction. This system has a welded f¡ame of extruded aluminum with a slot on the outer
edge. The fabric covering is pulled taut, and the ends are secured in the groove with galvanized steel staples. A vinyl trim bead covers the groove, protecting the fabric edges and providing
a flush appearance. Apart from the strip mall, awnings are a-lso reappearing in historic business dist¡icts and residential neighborhoods. In these locations, ne\^' ar,r'nings typically
feature fixed frames or operating lateral arms--both differing little from the awnings of one hundred v ea¡s before. Fixed-frarne awnings have frames made of either aluminum or light-gauge
galvanized or zinc-I'i'¡ttrt I4. I'itt vtur> ¡.itt:¡ \.\'orlti lVn¡ Il snt¡' litt ¡t'ttít'sltrt'ad nilttltti¡tti -a ^1.....:... ... -..-..:-... Ì-.1¡. UI ItLlItIIlt! tt¡It /{ri'¡í¡Ii¡15

awnings found in historic commercial districts r,r'ere primariiy those with historic frames and hardware that had survived to the present. But new lateral-arm aw.nings n'ith pon'dercoated
aluminum frames are an increasingly common choice for building owners who want the convenience of an operable system. Soiution-dved acrylics and acrylic-coated polyestercotton blended
fabrics are often usecl to replicate historic awning coverings. These relatively new materials resemble canvas in appearance and texture, yet offer greater strength and durability. Because
acrylics are woven (with the süipes and colors woven clirectly into the fabric rather than painted on the surface), they are durable and a1lon'light to filter through while keãping heat
out. They dry quickly, thereby reducing damage caused by mildew, and contain a LIV inhibitor that further reduces sunlight damage. Poly-cotton fabrics coated with a thin acrylic layer
that repels dirt and resists abrasion are also used. Both acrylic and polycotton fabrics do not stretch or sfuink like t¡aditional canvas so they are generally easier to measure, cut,
and install. Preserving Existing Historic Awnings lf awnings already exist on a historic building, they should be evaluated to determine whether they are appropriate to the age, style,
and scale of the building, using the crite¡ia identified below. Backlit awnings and dome awnings are usually inappropriate for 19th century and other historic buildings, while aluminum
awnings may be perfectly compatible with buildings from the 1950 or 60s (Fig. 15). The time is appróaching when some aluminum awnings may even be considerecl appropriate to older buildings,
iJ the awnings formed part of an updated storefront, or are central features of ¿n intact postrvar refashionin¡; of the building's exterior (Fig. 1fi).

to rr,'eathering and cleterioration and harclr,r'are is exposed to the elements, some alvnings may be bevond repair. Depending on the circumstances, ner,v an'nings may replace deteriorated
existing awnings in kinci or be instalied where awnings were once in place as seen in pictorial or physical documentation. In other instanceq they may be ner,r'ly irstalled n'here no
awning previously existed, provided they are compatible with the historic building. Whatever the ci¡eumstances, it is important to select an appropriate awning shape, material, frame
dimensions, signage (if any), and placement on the facade. If the condition of a historically appropriate existing awning is beyond repait it shsuld be used as the basis for selecting
a replacement. When a historic awning is rnissing, owners should first look for evidence of a previous awning irstallation. Evidence can be either physical or documentary. The existencc
of surviving hardwa¡e-rollers and arms, gearboxes, clamps and c¡ther fasteners--or signs that hardware was once in place, such as bolt holes or recessed roller boxes-are the most likely
forms of physical evidence (Fig. 17). Storefront remodeling projects often uncover concealed and disused awning hardware that can either be repaired or at least suggest what type of
awning was formerly in place. This is especially true for awnings that had an operating rod, gearboxes, and perhaps motorsconcealed in recesses within the building wall. Protected from
the elements, these items are lfüely to survive in repairable condition. Sometimes physical evidence of earlier au.nings can be found in the basement or upper floors where hardware and
even old coverings may have been stored after being removed from the facade. Clamps, fasteners, and bolt holes in an exterìor wall can rt'r,eal the position, type and dimension-s of

system when applied to new constructiolr. Historic awnin¡;s, howeveq, were either retractable or built with a covering laced onto a frame. Both fo¡ms had a fair amount of give in the

awnin¡;s rvere traditionally installed only where necessary. Windor,v awnings were most commonlv found on building elevations ll'ith southem exposures in the no¡them areas of the United
States and on elevalir:ns with both northern ancl southern exposures in the southem United States, They were also forrnd on east and n'est elevations, and sometimes just on selective
rvindows. Retractable awnings were originally more comnÌon in northern climates H,here alvnings required a clditional protection from extreme rveather conditions. The design of a particular
commercial building influenced the placement of its awnings, Some storefronts with traditional glass transoms had the awning placed below the transom, others, had the awning installed
above the transom. On both commercial and residential buildingg awnings were only wide enough to cover the window openings that they sheltered; a single awning rarely covered two o¡
more bays (fig. 21). On storefronts, they were not higher up on the building facade than was necessary to shade the entrance and display window. Thus, it is important Figure 19, Simple

character of tlte buílding. Today creating large lettered signs on a new an'ning as part of a rehabilitation project requires special care and is not appropriate in all cases. Used long
before any local signage control, historic examples of such lettering often reflected the character of a district, u'ith more upscale retail areas, for example, being more reserved than
wholesale dlstricts. Contemporary awning lettering can add visual interest and commercial identity but should be designed in keeping with the historic character of a building and its
historic district. Figure 26. Tlrc green and lturgundy stri¡tes that decorate these pctrch numings t'otnple¡nent tlu' rnatchitrg shutters and brick facaLlt. designs embellished building

tc¡dav as vve'll. Awning and Canopy Regulation Because commercial awnings often extend into the public right-of-way, municipal building departments usualiy regulate their use. Regulations
specify construction type (materials and di¡rensions of Éraming members, the use of.flame-retardant fabrics), minimum height above the sidewalk (usually between seven a¡d ten feet),
minimum distance between the proiecting edge and the curb (usually between one and two feet), and maximum projection from the building wall. Such regulations are meant to ensure that
awnings are securely built, do not pose a threat to pedestrians, and åJ IJ &J Color. As in the past, variety in awning color is an appropriate characteristic when reintroducing awnings
in historic districts. Since the l9th century awnings have featured a range of different ..,tripe pabterns and an extensive color palette (Fig. 26). These Iiyeh', even whimsical. *lrrrrlngs
