Applicable Guidelines
Old North Knoxville Design Guidelines, adopted by the Knoxville City Council on November 25, 2004.
See Guidelines- M. Auxiliary or Outbuildings (excerpt ) (Any and all Design Guidelines may apply)
- HISTORIC CHARACTERISTICS
- Auxiliary or outbuildngs were often used in Old North Knoxville, although many of them have
- deteriorated or been destroyed over the years. Typical outbuildings would have included carriage
- houses, barns outhouses or servants' quarters, often more than one story stall and built with
- steeply pitched gable roofs or combined gable and shed roofs, with weatherboard or board
- and batten wall covering. Smaller work sheds were also located in the neighborhood. New
- houses in the district might have had garages, with the same roof shapes and wall coverings,
- or with wall coverings that matched the primary building on the lot. Many garages and
- outbuildings in Old North Knoxville are of later construction, and are not contributing buildings.
- Consult the property descriptions in the Historic Designation Report if you question whether
- an outbuilding is contributing.

- face the street shall mimic carriage house
- doors from an era consistent with the
