Applicable Guidelines
Fourth and Gill Design Guidelines, adopted by the Knoxville City Council on April 20, 1999 and June 29, 1999.
See Guidelines- NEW ADDITIONS (all 4th and Gill Design Guidelines may apply)
- Recommendations:
- 1. Locate attached exterior additions at the rear or on an inconspicuous side of a historic building, limiting the size and scale in relationship to the historic building.
- 2. Design new additions in a manner that makes clear what is historic and what is new.
- 3. Consider the attached exterior addition both in terms of the new use and the appearance of other buildings in the Historic district. Design for the new work may be contemporary or may reference design motifs from the historic buildings. In either case, it should always be clearly differentiated from the historic building and be compatible in terms of mass, materials, size, texture, scale, relationship of solids to voids, and color.
- 4. Place new additions, such as balconies or solar greenhouses, on non-character-defining elevations, and limit the size and scale in relationship to the historic building.
- 7. New work should not appear to be as old as the historic building. Do not duplicate the exact form, material, style,and detailing of the historic building in the new addition.
- 8. New additions should not cause a lessening or loss of historic character, including the historic building's design, materials, workmanship, location, or setting.
- ENTRANCES
- 1. Entry features that should be preserved include sidelights and
- transoms of plain, patterned, beveled or stained glass, fan light
- windows, entablatures, and the original doors. All add character
- to the structures within the Fourth and Gill Historic District.
- 5. Determine if a storm door will be instrumental to saving energy.
- If a storm door is used, it should have a color-clad frame and a
- full view glass, or be designed to respect the original entry door.
- Security doors should follow the same guidelines .
- 7. Missing doors should be replaced with new doors appropriate
- for the style and period of the building. In replacing missing
- original doors, replacement doors should mimic doors typical
- for that architectural style, including materials, glazing, and pane
- configuration. Solid six-panel or flush wood or steel design doors
- should only be used for entrances not visible from the public
- street. "Decorator" designed doors available from wholesale
- hardware stores are usually not appropriate for the architectural
- styles of the Fourth & Gill Historic District.
