Applicable Guidelines
Edgewood-Park City Design Guidelines, adopted by the Knoxville City Council on July 29, 1997.
See Guidelines- Roofs
- 1. Replacement roofs must copy the shape and pitch of original roofs, and the soffit, fascia, and trim detail between roof and wall should mimic the original.
- 3. Repair or replace roof details (chimneys, roof cresting, and other unique roof features). Use some of these details in designing new buildings.
- Wall Coverings
- 2. Replacement siding, trim, and patterned shingles shall duplicate the original.
- 7. An entire wooden feature that is too deteriorated to repair or completely missing must be replaced in-kind. If features are replaced, the materials they are made from shall be compatible with the original in size and scale. Replacement parts must be based on historical, pictorial, and physical documentation. If documentation does not exist, a new sympathetically designed feature would be better than a hypothetical "old" one.
- Masonry
- 2. Identify and preserve masonry features that define the historic character of the building, including walls, railing, columns and piers, etc.
- 3. Replace an entire masonry feature that is too deteriorated to repair. Use the remaining physical evidence to guide the new work, and to match new to old.
