HomeMy WebLinkAboutFEEDER SUPPLY - PDP - PDP130012 - CORRESPONDENCE -Why are these labeled as 'compact'? The modification request includes reference to the
compact stalls, but doesn't give specifics as to the percentage of stalls, or for that matter, it's
not clear what the request is for since no Code section references are included. Also, the
justification for the modification needs to more clearly explain how any of the modification
standards in Sec. 2.8.2(H) are met.

The massing, set back, and height of the mill building addition appear to be appropriate,
meeting the Secretary of the Interior Standards. Architectural detailing, including materials and
stylistic elements, are not consistent with the era of the Old Town Historic District and the River
District. The mill addition has a more Neo-Classical appearance, based upon its detailing,
which should be changed to better reflect the Early 20th Century Commercial and Industrial
architecture of the Historic District.

As currently proposed, staff has concerns about the height, setback and step -back of the

advantage of the design and land planning expertise of the Landmark Preservation
Commission through the Commission's Design Review Subcommittee and through
Complimentary Reviews before the entire Commission. It is likely that other configurations for
the apartment building could be developed that will address the concerns of height, set -back,
etc., to create a better relationship between the two buildings.

As with the Mill addition, the apartment building feature Neo-Classical elements that are not
typical for the District's 20th Century Commercial and Industrial architecture, and these should
be removed. These include the quoining, the dentils, the ocular window and the pitched roof
of the tower element. Again, staff strongly recommends the use of the Design Review
Subcommittee to refine these elements.

04/19/2013: The buildings overall appear to be fairly consistent with the River District character.
In general historic River District architecture is characterized by simple brick patterns and
limited detailing. There are a couple details on the elevations which need to be addressed to
comply with 3.4.7 (F)(2): 1) A stone or brick base is needed on the Mill Building addition (grey
brick/stucco building). 2) Buildings in the River District do not have trim and corner blocks.
Please remove this detail from the mill building addition. 3) Consider replacing the half round
window from the mill building addition. 4) Willow Street building: Remove quions (a Georgian
architectural feature), which is also not found in River District, nor Fort Collins architecture.
