Subject:[EXTERNAL] Extending our virtual meeting period
Hi Karen,
Given our ongoing COVID‐19 “Safer at Home” recommendation from the State, I think it would be prudent for us to
continue to hold meetings virtually for the foreseeable future. Why don’t we set June 2021 as a cut off point to revisit
this, with the option to revisit the issue sooner if somehow a vaccine is found and quickly disseminated early next year,
and the Safer at Home recommendation is lifted. I know that P&Z is holding a mixed meeting soon, so I think we should
be open to that should the need arise.
So, to summarize: Let’s plan to continue our virtual LPC meetings until June 2021 with the understanding that, should
the need arise, we would be willing to consider an alternative option on a one‐off basis. Given that the members of the
LPC seem to feel that our virtual meetings have been going well, I don’t foresee this happening. But I would like to be
flexible should an applicant or appellant feel the need for an in‐person setting.
Thanks!
‐ Meg

The Quarry at Watermark Project Development Plan, Landmark Preservation Commission
review.
I live in the Hill Pond on Spring Creek Subdivision that abuts the property where The Quarry at
Watermark project is proposed. I believe that I have a personal interest in the project because
I will experience a substantial detriment different in kind from that experienced by the general
public. Additionally, a number of my neighbors are communicating with City regarding the project
and there is the potential for bias on my part that could affect my professional responsibilities.

Staff is tasked with reviewing projects and, in cases where the project can be approved without

a SHPO report under Chapter 14, Article IV of the City’s Municipal Code. This item is a report of all
such review decisions since the last regular meeting of the Commission.
Staff Report
The Commission did not require a staff report, nor were there any questions or discussion.
3. 126 S. WHITCOMB ST: APPEAL OF STAFF DECISION ON DESIGN REVIEW (CONTINUANCE
FROM OCTOBER 2020)
DESCRIPTION: This item is a continuance from October’s Regular Meeting. The item is to
consider the appeal of a staff design review decision for 126. S. Whitcomb
Street. The applicant is proposing demolition of the historic 1932 garage and
replacement with a new 1.5 story garage on its location. Staff denied the
request on August 25, 2020, and the owner filed an appeal on August 26,
2020. Staff decisions may be appealed to the Landmark Preservation
Commission.
APPLICANT: Tara Gaffney (Property Owner)
Mr. Murray recused himself from the discussion of this item due to a conflict of interest.
Staff Report
Mr. Bertolini presented the staff report noting the location of the property and discussing the proposed
project to demolish the 1932 garage building and construct a new 1.5-story garage in the same location.
He reminded the Commission of its role to determine the status of the garage and whether the project
meets the Secretary of the Interior standards. He noted staff originally denied this project finding the
garage was a contributing resource; therefore, demolition would not meet standards.
Mr. Bertolini discussed the issues that led to the continuation of this item, including which secondary
structures in the landmark district contributed to the history and significance of the district, which
unfortunately was not made clear in the 2013 landmark district nomination. He stated staff engaged
Mary Humstone of Humstone Consulting to provide a report on the topic.
Mr. Bertolini noted other properties in the district have gone through garage demolition projects;
however, those structures were not found to be contributing to the landmark district.
Applicant Presentation
Ms. Gaffney gave a brief presentation noting the pandemic is driving the desire for this space, which
will ultimately be historical.

Public Input

Commission Questions
Chair Dunn asked Mary Humstone, consultant, to comment on her report on this property, particularly
related to how outbuildings contribute to the district. Ms. Humstone replied outbuildings contribute to
the overall understanding of the properties, and garages specifically represent a large change in
American society in the first part of the 21st century. She stated garages are an important piece of a
district and should be considered along with primary residences.
Mr. Rose asked Ms. Humstone about the dates of the house and the garage noting the garage was
built during the depression era which tells a story of its own. Ms. Humstone agreed and noted there
were few entire houses being built during the depression, just garages and additions.
Commission Discussion
Chair Dunn asked the Commission to weigh in on whether the garage is contributing.
Mr. Rose stated that he believes the garage is a contributing structure to the Whitcomb District and the
property and any effort to improve its overall architectural quality may be a mistake as it does speak to
the time it was built.
Ms. Wallace agreed and stated it is important to show the more vernacular style of the garage.
Mr. Knierim concurred as well.
Ms. Nelsen commented on the other garages that Ms. Humstone's report found to be contributing and
stated it is important to stabilize the structure but opposed demolishing it or modifying it in any significant
way.
Chair Dunn asked whether the Commission needs to vote on whether the garage is a contributing
resource to the District. Mr. Yatabe indicated the Commission should vote on it.
Ms. Michell and Ms. Bredehoft agreed the garage is a contributing structure.
Mr. Rose moved that the Landmark Preservation Commission determines that the garage
structure at 126 South Whitcomb Street is determined to be a contributing resource to the
Whitcomb Street Landmark District.
Ms. Nelsen seconded. The motion passed 7-1, with Mr. Bello dissenting.
Commission Discussion
Ms. Bredehoft requested additional information regarding the approved removal of another garage on
the block. Mr. Bertolini replied the main house was found to be contributing despite the 1994 second
story addition, but only insofar as it reflected the overall development patterns of the district; therefore,
the demolition and replacement of the garage was deemed to not have a significant effect on the historic
district.
Karen McWilliams, Historic Planning Manager, noted the aforementioned property was not designated
for architecture and both the main structure and garage had been significantly altered at the time of the
district formation.
Chair Dunn suggested reviewing each standard.
Standard 1
Chair Dunn noted the property will retain its residential use.
Ms. Bredehoft commented on the need for a new garage to meet setback standards whereas the
existing garage does not, thereby affecting spatial relationships.
Chair Dunn noted the demolition and reconstruction of the garage is not a minimal change.
Mr. Bertolini clarified that staff looked at the whole property, not just the garage.
ITEM 1, ATTACHMENT 1
Packet Pg. 8
DRAFTLandmark Preservation Commission Page 4 December 16, 2020
Ms. Nelsen agreed the property will retain residential use; however, the proposed building would have
additional uses.
Standard 2
Chair Dunn commented on losing the distinctive material of the garage.
Standard 3
Ms. Nelsen stated, contrary to staff's analysis, she believes the proposed garage seeks to mimic the
house and does create a false sense of history.
Mr. Knierim agreed the new structure would change the story and not exhibit the physical record of its
time.
Ms. Wallace agreed the proposed garage looks like a miniature version of the house and it therefore
does not meet this standard.
Mr. Rose agreed the proposed garage is more contemporary.
Standard 4
Ms. Nelsen agreed with staff’s analysis that the garage is significant in its own right.
Standard 5
Chair Dunn pointed out that demolition would not preserve distinctive materials, features, finishes and
construction techniques.
Ms. Nelsen commented on the simplicity in materials and craftsmanship being valuable for the
structure.
Standard 6
No comments.
Standard 7 & 8
Not applicable.
Standard 9
Chair Dunn commented on the proposed garage creating a false sense of history as it is not
differentiated enough from the style of the house.
Standard 10
Chair Dunn stated destroying the garage would damage its integrity.
Overall Comments:
Ms. Nelsen stated the proposal does not meet the standards; therefore, a Certificate of Appropriateness
would not be warranted. She stated there may be other options that could help the applicant meet her
needs.
Commission Deliberation
Ms. Wallace moved that the Landmark Preservation Commission deny a Certificate of
Appropriateness for the proposed project, according to the standards outlined in Section 14,
Article IV of the Fort Collins Municipal Code, based on the finding that it does not comply with
the Secretary of Interior Standards 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9 and 10.
Mr. Knierim seconded. The motion passed 8-0. [**Secretary’s note: Mr. Bello abstained which is
counted as an affirmative vote, per Mr. Yatabe.].
Ms. Bredehoft suggested the possibility of adding on to the existing garage. Chair Dunn noted no
construction could occur on top of the undergrounded ditch but stated there may be a possibility for a
second garage or an addition to the rear of the house.
ITEM 1, ATTACHMENT 1
Packet Pg. 9
DRAFTLandmark Preservation Commission Page 5 December 16, 2020
Ms. Nelsen and Chair Dunn mentioned several possibilities that may help the applicant.
Mr. Rose stated there is more potential for using the available land behind the garage without having a
visual impact from the front of the property. He suggested not adding onto the rear of the house.
Ms. Gaffney asked if there is an existing Certificate of Appropriateness for the existing plans to stabilize
and provide a six-foot addition to the current garage. Mr. Bertolini replied those plans were developed
with the design assistance grant for the previous owners and were not ever approved; however, that
would be a much quicker approval process. He noted Ms. Gaffney would need a full construction set
of drawings for submittal.
Ms. Gaffney thanked the Commission members for their time and consideration.
[Secretary’s Note: The Commission took a short break. Mr. Murray rejoined the meeting, and a
roll call was taken upon reconvening to ensure all members were present.]
Mr. Yatabe explained to the Commission members that an abstention is treated as an affirmative vote.
Chair Dunn asked about the garage door being part of the record of the hearing. Mr. Yatabe replied it
is part of the record; however, staff would be evaluating a new application should the applicant move
forward with different plans.
4. 140 N MCKINLEY AVENUE (ROBERT AND ORPHA BUXTON HOUSE AND ATTACHED GARAGE)
– REAR ADDITION – CONCEPTUAL LANDMARK DESIGN REVIEW
DESCRIPTION: This item is to provide a conceptual review of a proposed rear addition to the
City Landmark at 140 N. McKinley Avenue, the Robert and Orpha Buxton
House & Attached Garage. The owner is seeking initial feedback regarding
their concept designs and their consistency with the U.S. Secretary of the
Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation prior to commissioning construction
drawings and seeking final approval from the LPC.
APPLICANT: Casey Churchill and Shannon Altenhofen (Property Owners)
Staff Report
Mr. Bertolini presented the staff report stating this is a conceptual review of a proposed rear addition to
the property at 140 North McKinley, which is a City landmark. He noted the Commission is being asked
to review what the property owners have provided thus far and provide feedback to assist in the
development of detailed plans that will follow preservation standards. He noted this project will come
before the Commission seeking a Certificate of Appropriateness.
Mr. Bertolini discussed the history of the property and its 1998 landmark nomination and designation.
He stated the proposed project is a rear addition to provide additional bedroom space and a finished
basement. He noted the massing of the addition is completely behind the historic home and the addition
is differentiated. He stated staff's initial analysis of the concept plans is that they are consistent with
the Secretary of the Interior standards for rehabilitation noting the plans meet the four main criteria
considered with additions to historic buildings: compatible, distinguishable, reversible, and subordinate.
He noted that while the addition is fairly large for a house of this type, the design should be
complimented.
Mr. Bertolini stated he does not have a firm response from Zoning yet regarding the floor area
requirements; however, it appears they should be compliant in looking at the Neighborhood
Conservation District requirements as the basement space will not count against the floor area
requirements.
Applicant Presentation
Mr. Churchill did not have a formal presentation but discussed his ownership history of the property
and desire for the addition to make the space livable for his family. He discussed the reasons for the
proposed design to ensure the integrity of the front structure is maintained.
Public Input
None.

DRAFTLandmark Preservation Commission Page 6 December 16, 2020
Commission Questions and Discussion
Chair Dunn asked if they have explored the possibility of digging out the crawl space. Mr. Churchill
replied the expense of that was not feasible.
Mr. Bello stated this is a reasonable approach that provides a minimal impact to the existing home.
Mr. Rose commented on the need for delineation between the existing home and addition suggesting
a change in siding width.
Ms. Nelsen asked about the treatment of the exterior corners and how the interior corners would resolve
with the new siding meeting the old.
Mr. Murray also commented on the typical profiles of metal corners of this time and stated using the
more standard straight corners could be a good way to differentiate the addition.
Ms. Nelsen commented on the size of the addition and stated it is done in a way to minimize negative
impacts. She stated a hip roof would help minimize the massing.
Chair Dunn mentioned the state's preference that additions are not more than 33% of the size of the
original house. She questioned whether allowing this large of an addition would prevent the owners
from accessing state tax credits. Mr. Bertolini replied that while 33% is a general rule of thumb, there
is no hard and fast size requirement, and the owners would still have access to tax credits and
incentives, though most of the cost of this project would not qualify.
Ms. Wallace stated she was concerned about the size of the addition and questioned whether the
Commission would have considered the property to be eligible for historic designation if it came before
them after having the addition. She expressed concern the addition may diminish the integrity of the
property.
Chair Dunn stated she is conflicted on the proposed size of the addition, though it is well hidden. She
also questioned whether the Commission would landmark the property if it came before them with the
addition. She commented on the tax credits being an asset that goes with the property and questioned
whether this addition would remove that asset.
Mr. Murray noted this addition has limited visual impact from the front of the property. He suggested
the possibility of a hybrid situation in placing some of the square footage under the existing house to
reduce the square footage on the first floor.
Chair Dunn summarized the members' comments stating there is some concern about the addition
size, but it is generally acceptable. She asked about the windows. Mr. Churchill replied the plan is to
mimic the windows that are in the rest of the house.
Chair Dunn stated the window openings seem similar to the house. Ms. Nelsen agreed the window
openings look similar but are distinguishable. She stated the existing versus new is clear in the
fenestration.
Mr. Rose stated the wall penetrations are of the same scale though the new windows appear to be
casement rather than double-hung. He supported keeping the overall scale and size of window
openings similar to each other.
Chair Dunn requested input as to whether the addition is adequately differentiated and screened from
public views by non-vegetation features.
Ms. Bredehoft stated she has no concerns about the visibility of the addition and commended the
proposed design.
Mr. Bello stated a hip roof would help with visibility.
Ms. Nelsen stated the design is going in the right direction; however, the addition may be more visible
from the front elevation roofline than the analysis makes it seem. She suggested there may be a way
to improve the roofline by breaking up the roof forms.
Chair Dunn requested input on egress windows.
Ms. Nelsen stated it might be better not to see them from the front of the house.
Chair Dunn commented on adding space under the house being the best solution for these types of
situations.

5. 711 PETERSON, THE W.E. BOYD RESIDENCE (ADDITION) – DESIGN REVIEW
DESCRIPTION: The owner is seeking to construct an addition to this contributing property in
the Laurel School National Register Historic District (NCM Zone District).
APPLICANT: Richard Sadowsk, Kim Dickson (owners); Kim Morton (design representative)
Staff Report
Ms. Bzdek presented the staff report noting the role of the Commission is to review the draft report,
provide additional comments regarding how the project does or does not meet the standards, and what
effects the project might have on the property's contributing status to the historic district. She provided
information on the property's location and history and outlined the proposed project to add a main floor
bedroom and bathroom allowing the owners to age in place. She stated the proposed design would
demolish a section of the north wall and construct the new 223-square-foot addition on the north
elevation. Additionally, a new gravel walk that would circumnavigate the north side of the addition is
also being proposed.
Ms. Bzdek outlined the Commission's questions from the work session, including a request for
explanation about the decision-making process that led to siting the addition in this location, a fuller
explanation of the design inspiration and its relationship to the original building, what alterations would
be needed to accommodate the addition, more detail about the material dimensions, and whether the
decorative shingling would remain in place.

Ms. Morton, design representative, introduced herself and the property owners. Mr. Sadowske spoke
to the Commission about his history with the property and his goals for the addition noting it would allow
for him and his wife to age in place with a first story bedroom and bathroom. He discussed the reasons
for locating the addition where it is proposed citing the view to the backyard and potential future garage
access from the alley. He discussed the importance of alley access for the property.
Ms. Morton provided further details about the proposed addition design. She noted the two-track drive
does not continue the full length of the driveway to the garage.
Public Input
None.
Commission Questions and Discussion
Mr. Murray asked if the applicant has considered making the upstairs bedrooms accessible. Ms. Morton
replied the staircase is quite small and steep and retrofitting that for a motorized chair would be difficult.
She noted the existing bathroom is quite small and would be difficult for accessibility.
Ms. Nelsen asked about the proposed cantilevered areas and how they relate to the existing house.
Ms. Morton replied the goal was to minimize the addition and work within setback constraints. She
stated the cantilever allows for a workable bathroom that keeps the large window intact.
Ms. Nelsen asked if there is a precedent for cantilevers in the neighborhood. Ms. Morton replied the
intent was to have it be something unique to mark the addition as being new.
Mr. Murray mentioned the four categories of consideration for addition per the Secretary of Interior
standards: compatibility, distinguishability, reversibility, and subordination. He stated the addition is
subordinate and compatible and can be designed to be distinguishable but questioned whether it is
reversible.
Chair Dunn stated the size of the addition is quite small; however, it is highly visible from the front of
the home and hides the garage so therefore may not be considered subordinate. She stated the
location of the addition is her main concern.
Mr. Murray agreed the addition blocking the garage is a problem with the design.
Ms. Nelsen commented on the proposed cantilever being attention-drawing and not necessarily
compatible with the existing house.
Chair Dunn stated the vertical elements on either side of the cantilever portion are what stands out to
her.

DRAFTLandmark Preservation Commission Page 8 December 16, 2020
Ms. Morton noted the garage will still be visible from the north and there will still be a visual connection
between the proposed addition and the garage. She stated no one would be opposed to changing the
siding material if suggested.
Ms. Nelsen questioned whether continuing the architectural language of the house with the addition is
the correct treatment.
Ms. Bredehoft stated she would prefer the addition to have some unique treatment but be at the same
level of craftsmanship as the house.
Chair Dunn questioned whether the continuation of the horizontal line confuses the addition with being
part of the original house. She suggested carrying it over in a more modern way. Ms. Morton
concurred.
Mr. Bello questioned whether this discussion is relevant given the addition may not be appropriate at
all. Chair Dunn replied the Commission is responsible for sending a report to the SHPO as this is a
National Register property. She stated the addition can still move forward even if the Commission does
not feel it meets the Secretary of Interior standards.
Mr. Murray stated the proposed addition would not negatively affect the contributing factor of this
property.
Ms. Bzdek clarified the role of the Commission stating it should provide some summary findings
regarding the Secretary of Interior standards for any proposed work as well as a general comment
regarding the property's contribution to the historic district.
Ms. Morton clarified the addition would not be removing any existing materials.
Chair Dunn stated a more simplified gable end would help differentiate the addition.
Mr. Murray stated a hip roof could be more subordinate to the home's gable.
Chair Dunn stated having an addition with a notably different roofline than the home would detract from
the home's roofline feature.
Ms. Nelsen agreed the gable is appropriate for the addition.
Mr. Murray discussed the Secretary of Interior standards and related staff findings.
Ms. Nelsen stated there may not be a better solution to keep the house functioning for its owners in
terms of the addition's placement and general massing.
Chair Dunn stated the proposed addition is done as sensitively as it can be in terms of standard 5.
Mr. Knierim discussed the importance of differentiation in terms of standard 9.
Mr. Rose commented on the lot and house being long and narrow and stated the addition being simpler
and more clearly delineated could allow it to meet the standards.
Commission members discussed the ways in which the project does not meet the standards.
Chair Dunn stated any addition on the side of the home would not likely meet standards. She noted it
will ultimately be up to the state to determine whether the home remains a contributing property to the
district.
Mr. Murray suggested adding a comment to the motion indicating the addition would not affect the
overall integrity of the property and its contributing to the historic district.
Ms. Nelsen and Ms. Bredehoft questioned whether that determination is appropriate.
Commission Deliberation
Mr. Bello moved that the Landmark Preservation Commission find that the proposed plans and
specifications for the alterations to the W.E. Boyd Residence at 711 Peterson Street as
presented, do not meet the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic
Properties, that our findings shall be conveyed to the owner, and shall be filed for potential
transmittal to the Colorado State Historic Preservation Officer regarding the property’s historic
status.
Ms. Nelsen seconded.
ITEM 1, ATTACHMENT 1
Packet Pg. 13
DRAFTLandmark Preservation Commission Page 9 December 16, 2020
Mr. Murray questioned whether the intent of the motion would make the property non-contributing.
Chair Dunn replied that has not been the intent of similar motions in the past.
Mr. Rose noted the applicants have indicated these plans are conceptual and suggested a clearer
delineation between the existing home and the addition could allow the home to meet the standards
and still contribute to the district.
Ms. Nelsen agreed the project does have the potential to meet the standards; however, it does not as
proposed, which is outlined in the motion.
Mr. Bello and Chair Dunn noted the proposed addition would still block the garage.
Chair Dunn stated voting on this letter does not suggest the applicants could not return with a different
design; however, it would still allow them to move forward.
The motion passed 8-1, with Mr. Rose dissenting.
Chair Dunn requested staff arrange for someone from the state to come to a future work session to
discuss this process in more detail.
6. CITY OF FORT COLLINS HOUSING STRATEGIC PLAN UPDATE
DESCRIPTION: For the Commission’s consideration at this meeting, City staff members will
provide a presentation on the Housing Strategic Plan outlining progress to
date, public engagement feedback, work with consultant Root Policy
Research, and outcomes from Council’s Ad Hoc Housing Committee.
Staff Report
Ms. Bzdek introduced the item and introduced Meaghan Overton, Senior City Planner.
Ms. Overton discussed the Housing Strategic Plan process that has moved quickly through public
outreach, strategy identification and evaluation, and drafting. She noted the Plan is set to be considered
by Council in February for first reading. Ms. Overton discussed the vision for the Plan: that everyone
has healthy, stable housing they can afford.
Ms. Overton detailed the public outreach process and resulting input around housing challenges. She
also discussed the list of strategies that have been identified and the draft criteria for evaluating those
strategies. She commented on the goals of Council's Ad Hoc Housing Committee consisting of
Councilmembers Gorgol, Cunniff, and Stephens.
Ms. Overton mentioned the six topics the Commission may want to discuss: conducting a displacement
or gentrification analysis, considering a demolition tax or fee as a revenue stream for affordable
housing, removing barriers to the development of accessory dwelling units, revising occupancy limits
and family definitions, Land Use Code changes, and enhancing programs that support home
rehabilitation of existing building stock.
Mr. Bello suggested an examination of design standards that increase home construction prices. Ms.
Overton replied that was one of the driving factors behind the Land Use Code audit.
Chair Dunn commented on older housing typically being turned into multi-unit dwellings and on the
possibility of placing accessory dwelling units in large lots in non-Old Town areas. She also mentioned
the connection between housing affordability and transportation which affects gentrification. She noted
occupancy limits negatively affect affordability.
Ms. Nelsen commended the staff work on this topic.
Ms. Overton noted the hope is that Council will adopt a Plan with clear priorities and metrics and a
community summit is planned for the spring to begin implementation.
Chair Dunn commented on the benefits of a demolition tax.

PROJECT NAME
THE QUARRY AT WATERMARK –DEVELOPMENT REVIEW
STAFF
Maren Bzdek, Senior Historic Preservation Planner
PROJECT INFORMATION
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Proposed development at Shields and Hobbit Streets of 326 multi-family
dwelling units and 10,000 square feet of commercial space. The site is
undeveloped. The northeast portion of the site plan, containing three
buildings, is within the historic influence area and subject to the design
compatibility requirements of Section 3.4.7 of the land use code. The
application is subject to a Type 2 Review, for which the decision maker will
be the Planning and Zoning Board.
APPLICANT: North Spring Creek Properties, LLC; Russ Lee, Ripley Design, Inc.
LPC’S ROLE IN REVIEW PROCESS: Provide recommendation to the Planning and Zoning Board regarding the
proposed new construction in the historic influence area near Sheely Drive Historic District (designated in 2000),
relative to compliance with Section 3.4.7 of the Fort Collins Land Use Code.
BACKGROUND:
The proposed development’s northeastern section is within a historic influence area resulting from proximity to
the Sheely Drive Historic District, a local landmark district of midcentury residential properties. The applicant is
currently preparing for hearing with the Planning and Zoning Board and has participated in two neighborhood
meetings to date regarding the proposed development. At the first meeting, comments included requests for
additional buffering and design compatibility on the eastern edge of the development. The applicant team met
with City staff to review the compatibility requirements in 3.4.7, and those revisions were presented at a
second neighborhood meeting and were received positively by the participating residents from the adjoining
Sheely neighborhood.
PROJECT SUMMARY:
•MMN – Medium Density Mixed Use Neighborhood
•NC -- Neighborhood Commercial (6 acres, southwest)
•326 multi-family dwelling units; 1-story and 2-story on eastern edge
•10,000 square feet of commercial space
•553 parking spaces
•Amenities (southeast)
•Natural Habitat Buffer Zones (east and south)
•Historic Influence Area (northeast): 3 two-family buildings (1-story ranch style)
Packet Pg. 18
Agenda Item 3
Updated 1-20-21
Item 3, Page 2
AREA OF ADJACENCY SUMMARY:
The “area of adjacency” for the purpose of historic review is Sheely Drive Historic District, northeast of the
proposed development. Due to the large scale of the development and in accordance with Section 3.4.7(B) of the
land use code, the design compatibility requirements must be applied only to the “historic influence area” (green)
established by the overlap of the 200-foot buffer zones (red) around the development site and the Sheely Drive
Historic District.
UPDATED INFORMATION – COMMISSION WORK SESSION REQUESTS
The following information that is relevant to the evaluation of compliance with Section 3.4.7 has been added to the
agenda packet:
•Comparative information about design and pattern of fenestration in the Sheely Historic District (applicant
exhibit added as supplementary document)
•Comparative information about the average height and width of residences in the Sheely Historic District
(applicant exhibit added as supplementary document)
•Sample motions for a recommendation to the decision maker (added to this staff report)
The following information has been added for your information only. This information is not relevant to the
application of 3.4.7 standards to the project.
•Neighborhood meeting notes (attached as supplemental document)
•A question about the reference to the Wallenberg Drive right-of-way (applicant can share info at meeting)

REVIEW CRITERIA AND INITIAL STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT:
Land Use Code (LUC) Section 3.4.7, Historic and Cultural Resources contains the applicable standards for
new buildings, where designated or eligible historic landmarks or historic districts are part of the development site
or surrounding neighborhood context.

Massing
and
Building
Articulation
1.New construction shall be similar in width or, if larger, be
articulated into massing reflective of the mass and scale of historic
resources on the development site, abutting, or across a side
alley.
Key Questions:
How well does the project reflect the typical width of properties in the area
of adjacency, and the abutting property to the east in particular?
To confirm compliance with this standard, applicant has provided
additional information about building dimensions relative to typical building
width in the historic district. Using three examples, the applicant shows
estimated building heights and widths (lengths) as follows:
•1600 Sheely: 10 feet high (to ridge); 100 feet long (at roof)
•1608 Sheely: 12 feet high (to ridge); 85 feet long (at roof)
•1609 Sheely: 14 feet high (to ridge); 76 feet long (at roof)
•Proposed 1-story duplex buildings: 16 feet high (to ridge); 77 feet
long (at roof)
Staff finds that the proposal meets this standard calling for similar building
width and height relative to the buildings in the historic district.

Key Questions:
Do the proposed materials for the 1-story residences (fiber cement lap
siding, fiber cement board and batten siding, stone veneer, and asphalt
shingles) meet this standard?
Discussion:
The applicant notes that many Sheely Drive homes feature a solid
masonry base with a lighter top of horizontal lap siding. Material palette of
the historic residences is primary in neutral and natural colors, with some
use of contrasting accent colors. Staff finds the proposed design meets
this standard.

2 Introduction In 1943, Lieutenant Colonel Arthur C. Sheely returned to Fort Collins to find things not quite as he left them. Deployed in February 1942 to serve during World War II, Sheely remarked on the changes that had occurred in his home town in his short absence, and more changes were coming still. Between 1940-1960, Fort Collins’s population more than doubled from 12,251 to 25,027.2 The expansion of Colorado A&M into Colorado State University and the development sparked by the Federal Highway Acts of 1944 and 1956 in part drew people to the “Choice City.” To accommodate this influx of residents, construction surged to quickly create new standardized housing communities, such as Reclamation Village and the Circle Drive Neighborhood. However, postwar prosperity created a different niche of housing demand from upper-middle class residents, many of whom desired more than a “cookie cut-ter” home. The Sheely Drive neighborhood emerged from this context in 1953. Now known as the Sheely Drive Landmark District (designated in 2000), this neighborhood features home designs that integrate modern tastes, ambitions, and architectural features while embracing the natural environment and the tight-knit character that makes Fort Collins distinct.“Gosh, things are different.” — Arthur Sheely, 19431 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 89
3 Historic Context “Mr. Ben Olds, we owe him a lot of favors.” — Inez Romero3 Although Inez Romero, who built the adobe Romero House (a Fort Collins landmark) with her husband, John, was referring to Ben Olds’s generosity toward her husband in the above expression of thanks, a similar gratefulness could be extended to Olds for his role in platting the distinctive Sheely Drive neighborhood. When developer Ben Olds platted the Sheely Addition in 1953, American attitudes vacillated between postwar optimism and Cold War anxiety. These opposite feelings affected patterns of events at the national, state, and local levels. In the United States, the postwar period was a time of optimism and confidence; America had survived and won World War II. Soldiers returning from war sought stability of home and work. The national government accommodated this need by passing or expanding some legislation. The Servicemen’s Readjustment Act of 1944, also known as the GI Bill, gave veterans funds to attend college, providing them with training they might need to reintegrate into a postwar economy and prevent another depression. The National Housing Act of 1934 created the Federal Housing Administration; after WWII ended, the FHA and the GI Bill together expanded the accessibility of homeownership for some veterans by federally insuring home loans, resulting in very low-interest rates for mortgages. As populations boomed, moving to the open spaces of the West “became synonymous with achieving the American Dream.”4 The Federal-Aid Highway Acts of 1944 and 1956 tasked state highway departments to develop 40,000 of interregional roads. This produced new circulation patterns throughout the nation and sparked much new development. ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 90
4 However, not all Americans experienced postwar prosperity equally. Racist undercurrents behind policies like redlining created a geography of segregation. Across America, the Home Owners’ Loan Corporation “graded” neighborhood risk for mortgage lenders; race was a large factor in these assessments. Minority neighborhoods received red/high-risk grades, which discouraged investment. Furthermore, the housing developments that were being built typically included housing exclusions against minorities. The economic and social inequity that minorities experienced led to calls for civil rights reform, the echoes of which have reverberated for generations. In Colorado, the postwar period was one of growth. The population increased by 32.5% in the 1950s as people moved west and families grew.5 Colorado may have attracted so many new residents because its economy benefited from defense spending during the war and after, during the Cold War. For example, during the Cold War, the North American Air Defense Command (NORAD) and the Rocky Flats Plant were both created in Colorado. The state was also home to facilities pivotal in the development of the first Titan intercontinental ballistic missiles.6 In response to the burgeoning demand for residences, developers started construction on new standardized housing developments using mass-produced products, standard designs, and new materials. The Atlas-E missile was part of the nation’s nuclear deterrent force starting in 1961. After Atlas technology became obsolete in 1965, this missile site northwest of Fort Collins, CO was decommissioned and the missile was removed.

5 Historic Context Servicemen returning home to Fort Collins found their town changing as the Cold War began to leave its impact and as the population increased and diversified. During the Cold War, Fort Collins was given the moniker “Choice City.” This nickname referred to the fact that Fort Collins was the chosen evacuation site for Denverites in the event of a nuclear attack on “the second Washington” based on estimated fallout drift and existing transportation routes out of Denver. Immediately following the war, the enrollment at Fort Collins’s Colorado State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts (Colorado A&M) tripled. To compete with the USSR during the Cold War, the college increased its emphasis on mathematics, engineering, and science. Students who graduated from the school often decided to stay in Fort Collins, and veterans also moved to the town with their families in increasing numbers.8 The once rural, sleepy college town became a thriving city with a respected university. This created an urgent need for housing. Standardized housing developments like the Circle Drive neighborhood accommodated this need. However, demographic changes also brought economic diversity to the city. An upper-middle class emerged with different consumer tastes than other residents and different residential aspirations. ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 92
6 Historic Context By the time Arthur Sheely returned home permanently from military service in 1946, he had significant ambitions for his family and business. Sheely merged his auto company with his former competitor, Harry Andrews. He sold his house on Mountain Avenue and invested in his business, Sheely-Andrews Motors. Andrews retired by 1950, according to City Directories, so Sheely assumed their combined customer base and eventually rebranded as the Sheely Motor Company.9 With his business taking off, Sheely purchased forty acres of land off of Prospect Street from Carl W. and Pauline Birkey on March 23, 1951. He soon sold to Olds and Redd Construction Company, owned by Ben Olds and B. G. Redd. Olds and Redd platted the Sheely Addition on August 26, 1953, creating six lots of on the west side of Sheely Drive. A part of the remaining land was subdivided June 11, 1954 into twelve more lots, five on the east side of Sheely Drive.10 “Larimer County and Fort Collins City Peace Officers with Their Cars” in front of Art Sheely’s garage at 326-330 S. College Ave. (Photo taken by Mark Miller Studio, 1939)11 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 93
7 The land’s topography affected the layout of the neighborhood and the type of houses built in the area. Low-profile houses followed the natural contours of the land, and architects oriented homes to take advantage of scenic views. Unlike typical homes of the era that were constructed on graded, flat lots, odd-numbered homes were constructed on the top of a ridge, many featuring walkout basements, and the street itself is curved, breaking from the usual grid-pattern. The choice of lampposts over street lights protects the view of the night sky. Passive-solar architectural elements like sun screens or design choices like the orientation of windows work to naturally control the home’s interior climate— a cutting edge design choice.12 The most prominent style in the neighborhood is the custom Ranch. Owners often worked with architects and commissioned design plans to create their own distinctive home. Building materials included wood, stucco, brick, stone, and glass. Houses were often one room deep and had an “L” or “U” shape to surround a patio or other landscape element. Although the homes in the Sheely Drive neighborhood were often oriented toward nature, they did not eschew modern technologies or materials either. For example, the rise of the automobile’s significance after World War II affected the design of many houses on Sheely Drive. Driveways were large and garages or carports were integral to a home’s design rather than being disguised or hidden. The prominence of garages in the neighborhood suggested the affluence of the residents. Modern materials, like cast artificial stone, exterior-grade plywood, or plastic laminate, were integrated into home designs as well, and other materials’ uses were reimagined, like the installation of ceramic tile window sills rather than wood.13 Historic Context ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 94
8 Ranch-Style Architecture “This type of home is not as much a style as it is an expression of our modern standard of living.” — The Rhodes Agency on “The House of Tomorrow,” 195514 The Ranch style draws elements from the International, Prairie, and Usonian styles. The International style, often called “the architecture of the machine age,” emerged in the wake of World War I as a manifestation of rejection of the old order and a turn toward modernity. International style buildings emphasize modern materials like concrete, steel, glass, and glass blocks. Pioneered by architect Frank Lloyd Wright, the Prairie style is sometimes regarded as the first uniquely American architectural style. These buildings evoke an overall horizontal feeling. The materials used in construction tend to be regionally appropriate. The Usonian style emerged as a reaction to the modern necessity for affordable middle-class housing with a simple design. Smaller and favoring natural materials like wood, stone, or concrete block, Usonian houses tend to be more economical than sprawling Prairie-style homes or International-style structures made of modern materials. These homes also tend to meld into the landscape.15 1509 Westview Ave.– Like some of the houses on Sheely Drive, this example of Modern Movements architecture has Usonian influences, including a large sandstone chimney, a façade window wall, horizontal orientation, and natural interior elements.16 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 95
9 Ranch-Style Architecture Ranch-style homes gained popularity by the 1940s during the postwar construction boom. By the 1950s, ranches were prolific in the United States. From 1955 to 1960, nine out of ten new houses constructed were in the Ranch style.18 Industrial building techniques allowed for mass housing design and construction in suburban neighborhood developments. The sites of ranches were usually graded, stripped of natural vegetation, and replanted with grass and shrubs.19 These one-story houses tend to have a low profile with horizontal emphasis, a low-pitched roof with wide overhanging eaves, a minimal front porch, picture windows, a rear porch or patio, and an attached garage integral to the home. Some ranches feature decorative, non-functional shutters, but many of these houses lack ornamentation in general. Rather than emphasizing the front of the house or street, the backyard is the focus of Ranch-style homes. Reflective of this tendency, these houses sometimes have smaller windows in the front and larger windows in the back.20 65 Circle Dr.– This Ranch-style house was built in 1946 by Harry G. Worsham Constructors. Like many of the houses in the Sheely Drive neighborhood, this house has an elongated, asymmetrical façade.17 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 96
10 Design elements of Ranch-style architecture found in the homes of the Sheely Drive neighborhood include: The fireplace as a central organizational element, typical of Frank Lloyd Wright's concept of the hearth as the heart of the home Long, low, ground-hugging design that responds to and integrates into natural surroundings Long and low, partial-height exterior walls extending from the house Large, overhanging eaves that emphasize horizontal lines and help control interior climate Sun screens such as louvers or lattices Decks that reinforce the design philosophy of the blurring of inside and outside Interior planters also reinforce the blurring of inside/outside Large expanses of windows, sometimes forming entire walls, which create a seamless flow from inside to outside and reflect site orientation and its associated solar energy Open floor plans that create spaces with more universal use and entertainment orientation21 Ranch-Style Architecture ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 97
11 Ranch-Style Architecture Unlike some other neighborhoods of Ranch-style “cookie-cutter” houses, the Sheely Drive neighborhood features many custom homes. The original residents of Sheely Drive, who built their homes between 1953 and 1960, predominantly belonged to the upper-middle class. These individuals had the means to work closely with architects to design distinctive, modern homes that stepped away from traditional styles. These homes worked with the area’s natural topography and included innovative features like passive solar design elements. In itself, each house in this landmark district is architecturally significant, but when seen as part of the overall neighborhood, displaying the same social, economic, and design theories, each house becomes part of a unique example of affluent development in Fort Collins and the social attitudes of the postwar period.

12 Sheely Drive Homes “Without an architecture of our own, we have no soul of our own civilization.” —Frank Lloyd Wright23 1600 Sheely Dr. — Ben Olds House24 This house is significant because of its association with Ben Olds and as a clear representation of a Ranch-style residence, an architectural style popular in America during the 1950s and 1960s. Ben Olds, who platted the Sheely Addition in 1953, bought the lot for 1600 Sheely Drive on Sept. 28, 1959 and built the house in 1960. Olds was a developer and co-owned Old & Redd Construction Company with B.G. Redd. He worked on the Circle Drive housing development for the Columbia Savings and Loan of Denver and was also the developer of the Mantz Addi-tion. His company built many of the houses in the Sheely Addi-tion as well. Additionally, the layout, construction, materials, design, and stylistic features of the Ben Olds House all exemplify the Ranch style. Many ranch-style homes emphasize the backyard as a leisure space. Reportedly, the Ben Olds House boasts one of the first home swimming pools in the city. The rectangular-shaped, in-ground pool was built in the Esther Williams pattern. Local anecdotes indicate that Fort Collins High School students used to take swimming lessons in the pool at this residence. 1600 Sheely Dr.– The very low-pitched roof of the Ben Olds House features exposed rafter tails and purlin construction with wide overhanging eaves.25 1 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 99
13 11601 Sheely Dr. — Mittry-Young House The Mittry family built the house at 1601 Sheely Drive in 1953. K. S. Mittry owned Mittry Construction and Transportation at 416 Linden St. He was the contractor who built the storm sewer for Colorado A&M in 1952 along with a portion of the Fort Collins storm sewer system on College Avenue. He worked on the Big Thompson Project and Carter Lake pressure tunnel as well. The Mittry-Young house was designed by Don Goff. In 1954, Goff was a home designer with Fred Harsch Lumber Company but soon after began his own business, Don Goff Designs. The Mittry-Young House exhibits stylistic influences of both the International and Prairie Schools of design. For instance, the two-sided fireplace located at the intersection of the three wings of this home’s Y-shaped floorplan evokes Wright’s concept of the “hearth as the heart of the home.” Another design choice influ-enced by Wright is the blurring of indoor and outdoor spaces; this can be seen in the use of stone in both the exterior walks and the kitchen and dining area floors as well as in the interior stairway. This house also features modern materials, such as steel casement windows, stucco over concrete block, glazed-ceramic window sills, neon accent lighting, and glass block, which are all associated with the International Movement. Sheely Drive Homes1601 Sheely Dr.– Most of the Mittry-Young House is tucked away behind lush, mature landscaping to the right. 2 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 100
14 Sheely Drive Homes 11604 Sheely Dr. — Sherwood House Ormand and Margaret Sherwood purchased the property at 1604 Sheely Drive on January 8, 1955. They built their house that same year. Margaret Sherwood worked as a teacher. Ormand Sherwood was a realtor for Rhodes Realty and co-owned the Valley Block Company, a local concrete block manufacturer. He sought to promote the use of Valley Block Company materials in the Sheely Drive neighborhood. Postwar prosperity allowed new home designs to break away from traditional housing forms. Prospective home owners were able to afford more than what utilitarian design could offer. Leisure and entertainment became important considerations in designing the houses of the Sheely neighborhood. Innovations in travel and communication technologies, like print or television, expanded Fort Collins residents’ knowledge of design and construction to a global scale. 1604 Sheely Drive reflects this context of modern design and social ideas. This Ranch-style house responds to and is integrated into the natural surroundings, hugging the ground. Outside and inside seamlessly flow through the large expanses of windows. The progressive residential design of 1604 Sheely Drive implements new materials, and materials that were once found only in commercial design. 1604 Sheely Dr.– The Sherwood House features a carport on the south side of the property (right side of image). 3 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 101
15 11605 Sheely Dr. — Moyer House Gerald and LaVila Moyer purchased the property at 1605 Sheely Drive on September 18, 1953 and built their house between 1953 and 1954. Gerald worked as a dentist. The Moyer House is an excellent example of high-style Ranch architecture in Fort Collins. Additionally, reflecting its Cold War context, an interesting feature of the Moyer House is the remains of a fallout shelter. The Moyer House demonstrates many of the design elements associated with Ranch-style architecture. Its low profile and low-pitched roof with wide overhanging eaves, boxed underneath with plywood, are characteristic of the Ranch style. There is a sandstone-colored brick veneer on the lower half of the southern third of the house with aluminum siding above. The brick veneer in the middle of the façade extends from grade to eaves. The northern section of the house features an aluminum-sided garage addition. Evocative of the International style, the minimalist entry is inset under a low-pitched, overhanging roof and features multiple light fixtures along the eaves. The entry separates the two different brick veneered sections. The front door has three vertical windows and a large, ringed brass plate around the handle. The sliding glass doors on the rear elevation open onto the large backyard with a spectacular view of the mountains. Sheely Drive Homes1605 Sheely Dr.– The Moyer House features modern materials, like glass block. 4 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 102
16 Sheely Drive Homes 11608 Sheely Dr. — Arthur Sheely House Arthur and Margaret Sheely purchased their property on October 15, 1954 and built their home the following year. Arthur Sheely was a partner in Sheely-Andrews Motor Company at 330 S. College Ave. He was also active in the Republican Party, serving as the Colorado Republican chairman from 1941-47. He co-chaired the Eisenhower-for-president campaign in Colorado in 1952, and he was a national committeeman for the Republican Party from 1956-1960. Local legend states that Arthur Sheely once served dinner to President Eisenhower in his Sheely Drive home. This property incorporates Colonial decorative elements like shutters and diamond-shaped panes of glass in the front door, typical of Ranch-style houses. The porch light fixture and the bathroom window feature similar motifs. A small, non-functional red sandstone wall extends past the end of the house to the north; called “Wright walls” this type of design element is associated with Frank Lloyd Wright. Scalloped siding in the gable ends is another typical feature of this style. This house has several corner windows composed of a large, fixed-pane window paired with a thinner casement. The Arthur Sheely House also features a number of pocket doors, creating a more open plan when desired. 1608 Sheely Dr.– The prominent chimney of the Arthur Sheely House is made of red sandstone. 5 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 103
17 Sheely Drive Homes11609 Sheely Dr. — Wells House The property at 1609 Sheely Drive was purchased by W. D. and Jennie Holley. W. D. was a professor of horticulture at Colorado A&M. The Holleys sold to O. Rex and Dorothy Wells on September 8, 1956 and built their house in 1957. Rex Wells was an attorney who specialized in water law. He helped codify city ordinances during a special council that convened in 1955. Additionally, he helped establish rural domestic water districts in the areas around Fort Collins. Dorothy Wells was a professor of Home Economics at Colorado A&M and also volunteered with the Avery House and Fort Collins Museum. Dorothy Wells also once worked as an assistant to a Dean and instructor at Colorado A&M. The Wells Residence at 1609 Sheely Drive is significant for its embodiment of the Ranch style of architecture, one of several important and popular post-World War II housing styles. Mrs. Wells found an architectural design she liked in an issue of Better Homes and Gardens and had the design of her and Rex’s home patterned after it. The only differences between the pattern Mrs. Wells found and the actual residence built at 1609 Sheely Drive were the reduction in the size of the kitchen and the increase in size of the dining room. This asymmetrical Ranch residence is a rectangular, one-story structure with a side-gabled, wood-shingled roof with wide overhanging eaves. 1609 Sheely Dr.– The Wells House’s rear deck has a roof designed to cast patterns of light and shadow. 6 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 104
18 Sheely Drive Homes 11612 Sheely Dr. — Dwight Ghent House The property at 1612 Sheely Drive changed hands several times before a house was built. Ben and Marie Brack purchased this property on August 11, 1954, and then sold to Arthur Sheely on April 13, 1955. Sheely sold to Sam Day on April 25, 1955, and Day finally sold to Dwight and Amy Ghent September 2, 1955. The Ghents built their house in 1956. Dwight Ghent was Vice President of Ghent Motor Co. He served as chairman of the Chamber of Commerce Roads Committee in 1953 and director of the Chamber of Commerce in 1954. He was also president of the Fort Collins Automobile Dealers Association in 1953. This post-World War II residence is an L-shaped, cross-gabled, single-story structure situated on a corner lot. This home was designed in the Ranch style. The wood-shingled roof is very low pitched, a characteristic of the Ranch style. The red-brick walls have board-and-batten detailing above the bay window, in the gable ends, and in the pent roof gable. This home exhibits several examples of the use of new materials and design in residential architecture, including a ground-to-ceiling glass-block window, the use of a vertical panel of decorative art glass as a sidelight, picture windows, steel casement windows, and sliding glass doors. 1612 Sheely Dr.– The Dwight Ghent House features a floor-to-ceiling glass block window. 7 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 105
19 Sheely Drive Homes 11613 Sheely Dr. — Galyardt-Puleston House William J. and Roberta S. Galyardt purchased this property on October 15, 1953 and built their house between 1954 and 1955. William Galyardt was a partner in the Galyardt-Harvey Insurance Agency at 149 Sylvan Ct. He became president of the Fort Collins Chamber of Commerce in 1953. He was also active in his church, serving as president and Colorado District Official for St. John’s Lutheran Church. Roberta was also a member of St. John’s Lutheran and was active in the Women’s Auxiliary. She was a member of the Fort Collins Symphony and the Fort Collins Country Club as well. This one-story house was designed by architect William Robb and was built by Victor Deines in 1954. The Galyardt-Puleston House at 1613 Sheely Drive is an excellent example of the Ranch style. With its daylight basement, rambling roof line, and use of local materials, this house is representative of the care taken by architects and builders to fit residences into the surrounding terrain of this neighborhood. The interior features several built-in, solid-wood cabinets in the living room, dining room kitchen, laundry, and den. The rooms are all spacious, with an open floor plan. The living room’s large windows overlook the garden and offer stunning views of the mountains. 1613 Sheely Dr.– The south side of the Galyardt-Puleston House features an exterior red-brick stairway leading down to the patio.8 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 106
20 Sheely Drive Homes 11617 Sheely Dr. — McCluskey House On May 11, 1954, Robert and Margaret McCluskey purchased the property at 1617 Sheely Drive, and they built their home by the following year. Robert McCluskey was the owner of Poudre Valley Creamery. This property contributes to the architecture and design philosophy of the neighborhood. Overall, the neighborhood reflects the prosperity of post-World War II Fort Collins as well as the design and material innovations of the time. A Ranch-style residence, 1617 Sheely Drive is constructed of pale-gray, non-standard-dimension stone-faced brick. The brick detailing is minimalistic, with row lock coursing at sills and wall caps. There are also several brick walls at the front and rear elevations. This house has a brick and wood-beam carport is located on the north side. The shallow-pitched roof has eaves with broad overhangs. The rear elevation features a walk-out basement, and the upper floor level opens to a raised deck with asymmetrically spaced horizontal railings. Characteristic of many Ranches, this house emphasizes horizontality and takes advantage of the natural site conditions. 1617 Sheely Dr.– The McCluskey House is nestled in a setting of flourishing plants and mature trees. 9 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 107
21 Sheely Drive Homes11645 Sheely Dr. — Shawver House The property at 1645 Sheely Drive was purchased by Caspar D. and Ella Shawver on June 8, 1954 and construction began the same year. C. D. Shawver was the president of the Collinado Drug Company at 1220 S. College Ave. His wife, Ella, was the secretary/treasurer of the same company. This house has a symmetrical massing design, but conveys a sense of asymmetry through its details. On the façade, there is a bay window on the north half of the elevation. The placement of the entry, to the north side of the center gable, contributes to the sense of asymmetry, creating a large, open area with one side of the gable cantilevered over this entry. On the north side of the house, there is a stone fireplace. Louvered shutters adorn the façade’s center window. The rear of the house has a walkout design. The garage is incorporated into the lower level of the house; this was a new design element that allowed cars to actually be brought inside the house, as opposed to the more common attached or detached garages. 1645 Sheely Dr.– The Shawver House uses ashlar sandstone below the centered gable. 10 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 108
22 Sheely Drive Homes 11700 Sheely Dr. — Lincoln Mueller House Lincoln A. and Dorothy Mueller purchased the property at 1700 Sheely Drive in October 1954. Lincoln Mueller was a forester at Rocky Mountain Forest and Range Experiment Station and also helped formulate forestry policies. He is also credited with much of the developments in wood technology that led to the development of plywood. The single-story, Ranch-style house at 1700 Sheely Drive is constructed of modular red brick and has an asymmetrical design. The roof has two cross gables at either end the house, one over the garage and the other over the living room. The roof uses wood shakes and the roof eaves have deep overhangs. At the center of the façade, a large, horizontal fixed window is flanked by operable, steel casement windows. Paired, steel casement windows appear elsewhere on the house. There are large, full-height fixed windows and a sliding door on the rear elevation. A brick fireplace is also centered on the rear elevation. A frame canopy protects a concrete patio, creating an outdoor leisure space typical of Ranch homes. 1700 Sheely Dr.– The horizontality of the Lincoln-Mueller House is characteristic of ranch-style architecture. 11 ITEM 3, ATTACHMENT 4Packet Pg. 109
23 Conclusion “Men may come and men may go, but I stay here forever.” — Arthur Sheely26 Although Arthur Sheely’s high school classmates may have attributed the above quote to him in jest, it seems appropriate when applied to the Fort Collins landmark district named in his honor. City Council designated the Sheely Drive Landmark District at the recommendation of the Landmark Preservation Commission February 15, 2000 (1600, 1601, 1604, 1605, 1608, 1609, 1612, 1613, 1617, 1645, and 1700 Sheely Drive ). This district is significant for its buildings’ “innovative architecture,” such as passive solar design elements, “their historical association with several prominent Fort Collins business and civic leaders,” such as Arthur Sheely, and “for their portrayal of the social, economic, and technological changes occurring in Fort Collins and Colorado following World War II.”27 As a landmark district, alterations to these buildings are reviewed based on the Secretary of Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation, ensuring the preservation of the significant history and character of these properties for the community.

PROJECT NAME
MAGNOLIA DWELLINGS – DEVELOPMENT REVIEW
STAFF
Maren Bzdek, Senior Historic Preservation Planner
PROJECT INFORMATION
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Proposed redevelopment of 335 E Magnolia, a single-family residence, to
construct a four-unit multifamily building. Development site is in the Laurel
School National Register Historic District. The existing zoning is
Neighborhood Conservation, Medium Density (NCM), and the decision
maker for this Type 2 Review will be the Planning and Zoning Board.
OWNER/APPLICANT: Owner: 335 Magnolia LLC (Contact: Jordan Obermann); Applicant: Russell +
Mills (Shelley LaMastra); alm2s (Ian Shuff)
LPC’S ROLE IN REVIEW PROCESS: Provide conceptual review comments regarding the proposed new
construction, relative to compliance with Section 3.4.7(E) Table 1 of the Fort Collins Land Use Code.
BACKGROUND:
The applicant has submitted a Round 1 PDP application for the proposed Magnolia Dwellings project and has
participated in the conceptual review process with City staff. As a presubmittal requirement for the proposed
project, City staff contracted with Tatanka Historical Associates (Ron Sladek) to evaluate the existing dwelling
at 335 E Magnolia. Based on the property’s lack of significance and integrity, Mr. Sladek found the property not
to be eligible for Fort Collins Landmark designation, and also noted that it should not be considering
contributing to the National Register district.
PROJECT SUMMARY:
In order to redevelop this site, the applicant proposes to demolish the existing residence at 335 E Magnolia and
construct a four-unit multifamily building.
AREA OF ADJACENCY SUMMARY:
The property is in the Laurel School National Register Historic District, with nineteen contributing properties to that
district within 200 feet of the development site. Two of those properties, 401 Peterson and 405 Peterson, are
immediately abutting to the east and therefore of primary concern regarding design compatibility. The existing
residence on the site will be demolished and is not part of the area of adjacency due to the 2019 survey findings.
UPDATED INFORMATION – COMMISSION WORK SESSION REQUESTS
The following information that is relevant to the evaluation of compliance with Section 3.4.7 has been added to the
agenda packet:

(applicant exhibit to be provided at meeting)
•Response from applicant re: roofline design and how it responds to area of adjacency (applicant exhibit)
•Addition of information about second abutting property at 405 Peterson (staff presentation)
•Information about 327 E Magnolia apartments (constructed in 1972; not yet 50 years old, therefore not a
candidate for evaluation as potential historic resource)
•Sample motions for a recommendation to the decision maker (added to this staff report)
The following information has been added for your information only. This information is not relevant to the
application of 3.4.7 standards to the project.
•Neighborhood meeting notes (attached as supplemental document)
•Request to provide more information on how the design addresses neighboring property’s privacy
concerns (applicant exhibit)
REVIEW CRITERIA AND INITIAL STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT:
Land Use Code (LUC) Section 3.4.7, Historic and Cultural Resources contains the applicable standards for
new buildings, where designated or eligible historic landmarks or historic districts are part of the development site
or surrounding neighborhood context.

Articulation
1. New construction shall be similar in width or, if larger, be
articulated into massing reflective of the mass and scale of historic
resources on the development site, abutting, or across a side
alley.
Key Questions:
How well does the project reflect the typical width of properties in the area
of adjacency, and the abutting property to the east in particular?
What is the width of the front elevation of the abutting contributing property
at 401 Peterson, and what is the comparative width of the front elevation of
the new construction?
In general, what is the average width of buildings along the block in the
area of adjacency?

Articulation
2.In all zone districts, stepbacks must be located on new buildings to
create gradual massing transitions at the same height or one story
above the height of historic resources on the development site,
abutting, or across a side alley. Additionally, in the Downtown zone
district, the widest portions of stepbacks required in the Downtown
zone district stepback standard shall be on building portions
closest to historic resources.
Key Questions:
Do the proposed stepback locations or equivalent massing strategy meet
the code standard relative to the closest historic resources in the area of
adjacency?
Discussion:
Stepbacks for this project are required on the east elevation that abuts two
identified contributing properties to the Laurel School National Register
District, 401 and 405 Peterson. The apartment buildings immediately to the
west were not evaluated as a potential historic resource because the
property is not yet 50 years old (constructed in 1972), and thus the
stepback requirement does not apply on that elevation. The proposed
massing and stepbacks meet this requirement.

3.The lower story facades until any stepback (required or otherwise)
must be constructed of authentic, durable, high quality materials
(brick, stone, glass, terra cotta, stucco (non-EIFS), precast
concrete, wood, cast iron, architectural metal) installed to industry
standards.
Discussion:
The proposed materials of fiber cement lap siding, stone veneer, and
aluminum clad wood windows comply with this standard.

4.New construction shall reference one or more of the predominate
material(s) on historic resources on the development site, abutting,
or across a side alley, by using at least two of the following to
select the primary material(s) for any one to three story building, or
the lower story facades until any stepbacks (required or
otherwise): 1) type; 2) scale; 3) color; 4) three-dimensionality; 5)
pattern.
Discussion:
The proposed materials reference the lap siding of 401 Peterson in type,
scale, dimension, and pattern. The proposed board and batten siding is
not drawn from the area of adjacency.
TBD
Fenestration 5.Use at least one of the following: 1) similar window pattern; 2)
similar window proportion of height to width; 3) similar solid-to-void
pattern as found on historic resources on the development site,
abutting, or across a side alley.
Key Questions:
Do the windows on the new construction meet this standard, particularly in
the most visible locations?
Staff finds that the proposed design uses a similar solid-to-void pattern as
found on historic resources in the area of adjacency, as well as similar
proportions and patterns.

Details
6.Use select horizontal or vertical reference lines or elements (such
as rooflines, cornices, and bell courses) to relate the new
construction to historic resources on the development site,
abutting, or across a side alley.
Discussion:
The primary consideration here is whether the rooflines and porch roofs,
which draw from the wider area of adjacency rather than the abutting
properties, are also sufficiently compatible with the abutting properties at
401 and 405 Peterson.

North Wall (front): The façade of the house is asymmetrical, with a front-facing
projecting gable on the east and a projecting enclosure on the west. These two
projections frame a non-original open porch constructed with a wood plank
floor and three square posts supporting a shed roof. The front entrance is at
the porch on the primary wall of the building, and this holds a non-historic panel
door along with a storm door. Flanking the entry are two windows. The one to
the east is a one-over-one double-hung sash window and to the west is a
narrow two-over-two double-hung sash window. The front-facing projection on
the east end of the façade holds a narrow two-over-two double-hung sash
window, with non-original shutters fixed to the wall. At the peak of the gable
end wall above is a small louvered attic vent.
East Wall (side): This side wall holds no entries into the house. Three windows
are present there, one of which appears to be a two-light sliding window. The
second appears to be a one-over-one double-hung sash window, and the third
toward the rear appears to be a pair of one-over-one double-hung sash
windows.
South Wall (rear): The rear wall of the house holds the building’s only other
entrances, both of them off a non-historic open wood deck. One of these
contains a non-historic panel door with nine lights. The other has a historic
wood panel door with a single light. To the east is a pair of one-over-one
double-hung sash windows with wood frames. A small louvered attic vent is in
the upper gable end wall.
West Wall (side): This side wall holds no entries into the house. On the
basement level is a small window set in a metal-lined well. Two windows are
present on the main wall of the house, both of them two-over-two double-hung
sash windows with wood frames.
22. Architectural Style / Building Type: Gabled Ell
23. Landscaping or Special Setting Features: This residence is located on the south
side of Magnolia St., two properties west of Peterson St. The house faces north
onto a small yard planted with grass and flower gardens, and bisected by a
flagstone sidewalk. A tree lawn is found along the street frontage. The chain-
link fenced backyard occupies half of the rear area of the lot, with open ground
beyond to the alley. Part of the fenced yard is planted with grass and the rest is
unpaved ground with trees on the west and a fenced vegetable garden in the
southeast corner. Historic residences surround the property, along with a large
1970s apartment building on the adjacent lot to the west.
24. Associated Buildings, Features or Objects: Shed – This small wood frame building
with a footprint of about 8’ x 10’ is located in the backyard southeast of the
house. Facing toward the north, its north wall holds a pair of wood swinging
doors. The building does not appear to be historic and is constructed with
wood panel siding and a gambrel roof.

House (ca. 1902-1906) – Archival documentation shows that this house was built
sometime between 1902 and 1906. Fire insurance maps indicate that it included
open porches on the front and back from around the time it was built.
According to historic records, the original front porch was demolished in 1948
and rebuilt the following year with low walls along the front and a projecting
enclosure on the west. The low walls are now gone. The original narrow
clapboard siding was replaced with wide siding boards between 1948 and 1969,
along with the fixed shutters on the facade. The rear porch was enclosed and
the house extended toward the rear between 1948 and 1969.
Shed (ca. 1990) – This small building dates from sometime around 1990.

35. Historical background: Throughout its early years from the late 1800s to the early
1920s, the property now known as 335 E. Magnolia St. was part of Lot 1 in Block
144 of the original Fort Collins townsite. By 1894, Lot 1 was owned by Robert
Walsh, an Irish immigrant who was farming in the Fort Collins area by the mid-
1880s. He was also a businessman and during the 1890s appears to have
resided with his family in the house on the southwest corner of Magnolia Street
and Peterson Street (this has since been replaced). The western half of the lot
was vacant yard.
In July 1899, Walsh arranged to sell the property to prominent Fort Collins
farmer, businessman and property investor Samuel H. Clammer for $1,050.
Clammer is unlikely to have lived in the house and instead quit-claimed his
ownership back to Robert Walsh in May 1900 for a payment of $1,000. One week
later, Walsh sold Lot 1 to Joseph A. Kern, about whom nothing is known. He
sold the property in January 1902 to Frederick Gross, who may have been his
brother-in-law, for $1,300. This transfer launched the property into a new phase
of its history.
Frederick Gross was born in Prussia in 1840 and immigrated to the United
States in 1862. After a short stay in New York City, he traveled west to
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where he was employed as a blacksmith for twelve
years. He married Anna Brost in 1869 and they started a family in Milwaukee. In
1875, they moved to northern Colorado, where for three years Gross worked as
a farmhand for his brother-in-law, Lewis Kern. In 1878, he purchased two
adjacent 80-acre tracts of land in the Harmony District south of Fort Collins and
over the following years established a successful farm. This remained the
family home through the end of the century.
Sometime between 1894 and 1906, the house on the southwest corner of
Magnolia and Peterson was demolished and the east half of the lot remained
vacant until the years following World War II. The house in the west half of the
lot appears to have been constructed after the property had been acquired by
Frederick Gross, dating the house to the period between 1902 and 1906. City
directories show that two families lived at this address between around 1903
and 1908, both evidently renting the property from Frederick Gross. The first
occupants were horse breeder Addison S. Carner and his wife Serena. They
were followed by farm laborer and Lindell Mill watchman William F. Wittenbrink
and his wife Minnie.
Anna Gross died in April 1908 and exactly two years later Frederick married
Martha Manson. A native of Ohio, she was 24 years younger than her new
husband and this was also her second marriage. Frederick and Martha initially
lived in a rented home on Laporte Avenue before moving into the house at 335
E. Magnolia St., where they resided from around 1911 to 1920. Martha was a
member of the Loyal Temperance Legion, and in September 1915 the Fort
Collins Courier noted that the group held their monthly meeting in the house.

Frederick and Martha advertised the sale of Lot 1, consisting of the house and
adjacent vacant ground to the east, in March 1919. However, it did not sell at
that time. Instead, the following month he transferred the property to Martha
and in May 1920 they were divorced. After that, she began advertising to rent
the house, which included furnished rooms and a large garden. Martha also
sought a renter for a barn on the lot, which she advertised could hold four cars
or a shop. In December 1920, the vacant ground in the east half of the lot was
used for the sale of stove wood and Christmas trees.
In September 1920, Martha signed an agreement to sell the house to teamster
Herman Lundvall and his wife Verna, who had arranged for a series of payments
to be made. They kept horses on the property and in June 1921 advertised in
the Fort Collins Courier for two horses that had strayed. The following month,
in July 1921, Martha was committed to the Colorado State Hospital for the
Insane in Pueblo, where she remained the rest of her life. Following their
divorce, Frederick moved into the Linden Hotel in downtown Fort Collins and
lived there until his death in 1927. He was buried in Grandview Cemetery.
In May 1923, almost two years after she was sent to Pueblo, Martha’s estate
administrator sold the west half of Lot 1 to Fort Collins insurance agent Edwin
A. Schlichter and real estate agent William P. Withrow. This was the first time
Lot 1 was divided in two and the partners clearly purchased the property as an
investment. According to the conservator’s deed and other documents, Herman
and Verna Lundvall resided there through 1922 or early 1923 and then made
plans to leave Fort Collins. They assigned their interest in the purchase
contract to Schlichter and Withrow, who agreed to pay the remaining balance
due to the estate.
Schlichter and Withrow held onto the property at 335 E. Magnolia St. for just
three days before selling it to Ira Dwight Allen and his wife Carolyn Edith. Ira
was born in 1859 in New York and around 1885 married Carolyn, who was an
immigrant from Canada. They arrived in Fort Collins by the mid-1910s, where he
operated a livery barn and express delivery service. After purchasing the house
at 335 E. Magnolia St. in May 1923, they resided there through at least 1940, and
this essentially served as their retirement home. Ira died in 1942 and was buried
in Grandview Cemetery. Carolyn died in 1953 and was buried next to her
husband.
Although they would continue to live in the house for several more years, in
July 1934 Ira and Carolyn sold the property to August C. Kluver. August and his
wife Mary lived a few doors to the west at 323 E. Magnolia St., and owned the
house under study from 1934 to 1946. No evidence was found that they ever
lived there. August died in June 1945 and one year later, in May 1946, his estate
sold the property to Robert and Margaret Kenworthy for $3,800. They in turn
sold it in September 1947 to tire serviceman Carl Hoffmaster and his wife Ann.
The Hoffmasters held onto the house for just three months before selling it in
December 1947 to Elmer and Nancy Shepherd.

Born in Iowa in 1881, Elmer Shepherd married Nancy Campbell in 1904 and the
couple farmed for many years in the vicinity of McCook, Nebraska. They moved
to Fort Collins in 1943, where Elmer worked as a janitor at Colorado A & M.
After purchasing the house at 335 E. Magnolia St. in 1947, they remained there
until 1957. Nancy died in Fort Collins in 1963 and was buried in McCook’s
Riverview Cemetery. Elmer joined her there following his death in 1963.
The Shepherds sold the house in February 1957 to Clarence and Delila
Jacobsen, who had moved to Fort Collins from Iowa sometime earlier that
decade. Clarence was a self-employed carpenter and they lived in the house
until August 1960, when they sold the property to Eugene and Grace Fischer.
Eugene worked as a high school teacher and the couple resided in the house for
just two years. Around November 1962, they sold it to Kenneth and Olive Clay.
Kenneth was a mechanic at A1 Auto in Fort Collins. In September 1968, they
sold the house to Arthur and Nancy Eckdahl. The Eckdahls remained there
through 1972, and Arthur was employed as a fireman and mailman.

VI. Significance
37. Local landmark designation:
Applicable Fort Collins Criteria (Fort Collins Municipal Code, Chapter 14, Section 14-5)
A. Events: Associated with events that have made a recognizable
contribution to the broad patterns of the history of the community, State or
Nation (a specific event or pattern of events)
B. Persons/Groups: Associated with the lives of persons or groups of persons
recognizable in the history of the community, State or Nation whose
specific contributions to that history can be identified and documented
C. Design/Construction: Embodies the identifiable characteristics of a type,
period, or method of construction; represents the work of a craftsman or
architect whose work is distinguishable from others by its characteristic
style and quality; possesses high artistic values or design concepts; or part
of a recognizable and distinguished group of properties
D. Information potential: Has yielded, or may be likely to yield, information
important in prehistory or history
X Does not meet any of the above Fort Collins designation criteria
Analysis of Fort Collins Significance: In Fort Collins, a property may be eligible
for local designation even when it is found to be ineligible for the more stringent
State and National Registers of Historic Places. In this case, the property at 335
E. Magnolia St. is determined to be ineligible for individual designation as a City
of Fort Collins landmark under any of the criteria. It simply does not meet the
historical or architectural standards.
In addition, the house has been altered by a number of changes that have
combined to damage its architectural integrity even though it retains some
aspects of integrity such as location and setting. Most importantly, these
changes included replacement of the original clapboard siding with wider
fiberboards, along with alterations to the front porch that changed the character
of the house. Although this work was done between 1949 and 1969, it has left
the building’s original architecture greatly changed and no longer a good
example of the style. There are much better examples of the style in Fort
Collins. For the same reasons, the house is no longer a contributing element of
the National Register-listed Laurel School Historic District.

38. Applicable National Register Criteria:
A. Associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the
broad pattern of our history
B. Associated with the lives of persons significant in our past
C. Embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of
construction, or represents the work of a master, or possesses high artistic
values, or represents a significant and distinguishable entity whose
components may lack individual distinction
D. Has yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in history or
prehistory
Qualifies under Criteria Considerations A through G
X Does not meet any of the above National Register criteria
39. Area(s) of significance: Not Applicable
40. Period of significance: Not Applicable
41. Level of significance: National No State No Local No
42. Statement of significance: Based upon the extensive archival research and field
documentation completed for this project, this property was found to have been
developed between 1902 and 1906, during a period of economic and
neighborhood expansion in Fort Collins. It was one of many houses, ranging
from modest to upscale, that were built around that time along E. Magnolia St.
This property does not appear to be eligible for the NRHP or SRHP under
Criterion A because it was not found to have been adequately associated with
an important historic event or pattern of events. Owned by a series of families
with modest backgrounds, the property also does not meet the standard for
eligibility under Criterion B.
In relation to Criterion C, the house retains some elements of its early twentieth
century style and detailing. However, it was substantially altered during the
period between 1948 and 1969. Although these would be considered historic
alterations, they resulted in negative changes to its architectural character and
there are certainly better examples of the style in Fort Collins. Because of this,
the property does not convey an adequate enough sense of its original historic
architecture, including materials and design, to qualify as eligible for the NRHP
or SRHP under Criterion C. There is no indication that it might be eligible under
Criterion D. The house is determined to be non-contributing to the National
Register-listed Laurel School Historic District.

43. Assessment of historic physical integrity related to significance: The small wood
frame house on this property was constructed between 1902 and 1906, and over
the following decades appears to have remained largely unaltered. In 1948-
1949, the building was remodeled when the front porch was removed and
rebuilt, complete with a low wall, or closed rail, along the front and a projecting
enclosure on the west. Sometime between 1949 and 1969, the house’s original
clapboard siding was removed and replaced with wide fiberboard siding along
with fixed shutters on the front window. The brick chimney was also removed
and a second west-facing entrance from the front porch closed. These
alterations greatly changed the house’s historic appearance.
While the house is in its original location and continues to stand among
residences of similar age, the adjacent property to the west was redeveloped
with a large apartment building around the early to mid-1970s. This sits very
close to the house’s west property line and encroaches upon the historic home.
To the east are three residential buildings dating from the 1950s or early 1960s.
Consequently, the aspect of setting has been diminished. The house on this
site retains some of its original features, including its asymmetrical façade,
intersecting gables, and several early double-hung sash windows. Yet it
exhibits an altered degree of integrity in the areas of design and feeling. In
addition, the aspects of materials and workmanship are diminished due to the
described changes to its front porch and wall cladding.
Overall, this property retains a very modest degree of integrity that challenges
its ability to clearly convey its origins in the early twentieth century and its
association with its early owners. Consequently, its integrity fails to support
NRHP or SRHP eligibility.

PROJECT NAME
359 LINDEN (GINGER AND BAKER) – SUNSHADE ADDITION
STAFF
Maren Bzdek, Senior Historic Preservation Planner
PROJECT INFORMATION
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This is a request for the addition of an upper patio enclosure on the
northwest corner of the historic building at 359 Linden Street (Ginger and
Baker).
APPLICANT: Chris Aronson (VFLA); Jack and Ginger Graham (Owners)
LPC’S ROLE IN REVIEW PROCESS: Provide a recommendation to the decision maker, regarding compliance
with Section 3.4.7 of the Land Use Code, for a Minor Amendment application to construct a shade structure
addition on the north elevation ground floor patio.
BACKGROUND:
Originally the Poudre Elevator Company, the mill and grain elevator more recently occupied by Feeders Supply
and now by Ginger and Baker was constructed in 1910. The location was considered strategic with proximity to
railroad tracks of the Colorado and Southern Railway line to allow for loading and unloading of goods to and from
the train. The building featured a retail store, two and one-half story grain elevator, hay warehouse and coal
storage. The stepped parapets, gable roof, limited windows, and head-house have been, and continue to be the
building’s character-defining historic features. Between approximately 1917 and 1949 four subsequent additions
were successively added on to the rear of the mill along Willow Street. In 1944, stucco was added to the exterior.
Feeders Supply (the mill, grain elevator and hay warehouse) was listed on the National Register of Historic Places
in 1978 as a contributing property to the Old Town District.
In 2013, the four rear additions were determined to have no historic significance and were removed. In 2015, the
current owners, Jack and Ginger Graham, received approval for an application to construct a two-story addition to
the building and rehabilitate the historic structure to accommodate a new use as restaurant and retail space. In
2020, the LPC provided approval for the addition of a sunshade structure on the lower patio (north elevation).
PROJECT SUMMARY: This application calls for the enclosure of the upper patio on the northwest corner of the
building. The structure is composed of painted steel columns (black), corrugated metal roofing, a skylight system,
and aluminum bifolding windows. The applicant has provided a full set of iterative designs that were considered
before arriving at the final proposed design solution, in order to provide the Commission with a better
understanding of why those alternatives were rejected in favor of the current design.
AREA OF ADJACENCY SUMMARY:
The “area of adjacency” for the purpose of this historic review is the historic building itself at 359 Linden Street.
While there are other historic resources within 200 feet, the relatively limited scope and size of this proposed
alteration and the fact that it is being added to a historic resource requires analysis of this alteration under the SOI
Standards, rather than a broader design compatibility comparison with other historic structures on nearby parcels.

Item 5, Page 2
UPDATED INFORMATION – COMMISSION WORK SESSION REQUESTS
The following information that is relevant to the evaluation of compliance with Section 3.4.7 has been added to the
agenda packet:
• Roof plan (applicant will provide at meeting)
• Will the new space be conditioned? (Yes, it will have HVAC)
• How will the new construction meet the existing building? (applicant will provide at meeting)
• Could it be removed? (Not easily, but technically it could be removed.)
• Information about the overframed space (it is voided space)
• Are there structural impacts to the first floor building below? (No, the structure will be connected to the
interior steel columns and steel belly band.)
• Were there historic portions of the building in this area that were removed for the 2015 project? (No)
• Was there a parapet around the top of the first floor, historically? (No)
• Is the glass translucent? (Yes, clear and not tinted)
• Why has the applicant proposed a different product on the second floor location? (The existing structural
conditions don’t allow the prefab sunshade system, and the system is not recommended for second floor
location.)
REVIEW CRITERIA AND INITIAL STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT:
Land Use Code (LUC) Section 3.4.7 (D)(2): “Proposed alterations to any building, site, structure, or object
located on the development site that is not a Fort Collins landmark but is designated on the Colorado State
Register of Historic Properties, either individually or contributing to a district, or the National Register of Historic
Places, either individually or contributing to a district, must comply with the design review requirements in
Chapter 14, Article III, of the Fort Collins Municipal Code. The applicant must obtain a report pursuant to
Chapter 14 regarding all proposed alterations before receiving a Landmark Preservation Commission
recommendation pursuant to below Subsection (F). Additionally, to the maximum extent feasible, the
development plan and building design shall provide for the preservation and adaptive use of any such building,
site, structure, or object.”

SOI #1
A property will be used as it was historically or be given a new use that requires
minimal change to its distinctive materials, features, spaces, and spatial
relationships.
N/A
SOI #2
The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The removal of
distinctive materials or alteration of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that
characterize a property will be avoided.
The 2015 alterations to this property created a mixed environment of highly differentiated
new construction and sensitive rehabilitation of the existing primary historic building, which
did also include the addition of some modern construction with the north elevation patios at
the upper and lower levels. In 2020, the LPC also approved the sunshade structure on the
lower north patio. As with that 2020 alteration, the question is whether the addition of the
enclosure on the northwest patio would lead to loss of the property’s overall historic
character and distinctive features and spaces.

SOI #9 New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction shall not destroy
historic materials that characterize the property. The new work shall be
differentiated from the old and shall be compatible with the massing, size, scale,
and architectural features to protect the historic integrity of the property and its
environment.
Design compatibility in terms of the visual impact on the historic structure,
considered also as an additional alteration to the property along with the 2015 and
2020 alterations, is the primary consideration for this particular project.
The alteration is relatively minor compared to the large addition on the south and
the enclosure is on a side/rear portion of the building. However, the corner
location of the building presents a challenge in terms of making this alteration
more prominent and visible.
The new work is differentiated from the original design.
The enclosure will have a greater impact on the historic character when the bifold
windows are closed, at which time the structure will function and feel more like a
small addition.
