  • Architectural Styles/Types
    Architectural Findings Summary of Architectural Trends 1940‐70 National architectural trends are evident within the survey area. The breakdown of mid‐20th‐ century styles and building types in the Architectural Findings section gives more detail about the Dayton metropolitan area’s built environment and its place within national architectural developments. In American Architecture: An Illustrated Encyclopedia, Cyril Harris defines Modern architecture as “A loosely applied term, used since the late 19th century, for buildings, in any of number of styles, in which emphasis in design is placed on functionalism, rationalism, and up‐to‐date methods of construction; in contrast with architectural styles based on historical precedents and traditional ways of building. Often includes Art Deco, Art Moderne, Bauhaus, Contemporary style, International Style, Organic architecture, and Streamline Moderne.” (Harris 217) The debate over traditional styles versus those without historic precedent had been occurring within the architectural community since the late 19th century when Louis Sullivan declared that form should follow function and Frank Lloyd Wright argued for a purely American expression of design that eschewed European influence. In 1940, as America was about to enter the middle decades of the 20th century, architects battled over the merits of traditional versus modern design. Both the traditional Period Revival, or conservative styles, and the early 20th‐century Modern styles lingered into the 1940s. Period revival styles, popular for decades, could still be found on commercial, governmental, institutional, and residential buildings. Among these styles were the Colonial Revival and its multiple variations, the Tudor Revival, and the Neo‐Classical Revival. As the century progressed, the Colonial Revival in particular would remain popular, used as ornament for Cape Cod and Ranch houses, apartment buildings, and commercial buildings.

  • Roof Overhang and Building Coverage
    M E M O R A N D U M To: Development Services staff From: Matthew Seubert for Tina Axelrad, Zoning Administrator Date: May 24, 2018 (Revised: 5/14/2020) Re: Denver Zoning Code Clarification — Roof Overhang and Building Coverage Summary This memo provides a written clarification that addresses the following related questions: • At what point is an eave or roof overhang so large that it is considered the roof of a partially enclosed structure? • When does a roof overhang count towards building coverage? In general, and as explained below, a Roof Overhang or Eave that is 3’ or less does not count towards building coverage. A Roof Overhang of 3’ or less may be permitted to encroach into required Setbacks, depending on the zone district and the allowed setback encroachments. A Roof Overhang in excess of 3’ is considered a roof of a Partially Enclosed Structure and counts towards allowed building coverage of the Zone Lot. Discussion – Code Analysis Relevant DZC sections include Sections 4.3.7.4.B.1 and similar provisions in the DZC, Articles 3-9, which specify requirements for setback encroachments. For example, Gutters and Roof Overhangs are permitted to encroach up to 3’ into the Primary and Side Street Setback area in all E Zone Districts, because they are considered minor architectural elements that do not negate the intent of setbacks remaining open to the sky. The Rule of Measurement (ROM) (DZC 13.1.5.13) for Building Coverage, Gross Area of Footprint, states: For purposes of building coverage, ‘gross area of footprint’ shall include: 1.

  • CARPORT INTEGRITY POLICY Arizona State Historic Preservation Office
    CARPORT INTEGRITY POLICY Arizona State Historic Preservation Office Prepared by Jason Fox and R. Brooks Jeffery Preservation Studies University of Arizona Adopted October 2005 Purpose In 2004, the staff of the Arizona State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and the members of the Arizona Historic Sites Review Committee (HSRC) reviewed the proposed Winterhaven Historic District (Tucson) National Register nomination in which the discussion of integrity was often focused on how the carport, an integral component of ranch style house type, has been modified over the 50+ years of the subdivision. SHPO staff and the HSRC disagreed with the preparers’ evaluation of carport integrity as applied to the proposed Winterhaven Historic District. The preparers were graduate students from a University of Arizona Preservation Studies class under the direction of R. Brooks Jeffery. The preparers took a purist stance that defined criteria for carport integrity as having no modifications to its original form and function. The SHPO staff and the HSRC then recommended that a more thorough study of carports be conducted by the preparers with the purpose of providing a spectrum of options for carport integrity, evaluation criteria, and recommendations to SHPO staff and the HSRC as a policy to guide evaluation of future nominations where the integrity of carports in ranch style house types is at issue. Jason Fox, one of the graduate students in the Preservation Studies program who worked on the original nomination, and Jeffery then completed a draft Carport Integrity Policy for review by SHPO staff and HSRC. The policy presented three scenarios and recommended the third that stated, “All residences with compatible carport garage conversions and compatible enclosures into habitable space are considered contributors.” This policy recommendation was approved for adoption by a unanimous vote by the HSRC in October 2005.
