Additions- Revision to previously approved rear addition to modify proposed roofline. Addition was approved in August 2020 (8-K-20-HZ), with a hipped standing-seam metal roof. Current proposal does not involve any modifications to footprint, design, or exterior elevations of new addition. New roof will feature a low-sloped, membrane roof with a parapet wall and a linear metal scupper. Roof design will still feature painted wood corbels (to correspond with existing house) immediately below parapet. Parapet will extend along all three elevations of new addition.

Applicable Guidelines
Old North Knoxville Design Guidelines, adopted by the Knoxville City Council on November 25, 2004.
See Guidelines- L. Additions
- 1. Locate exterior additions at the rear of or on an inconspicuous side of a historic building, limiting the size and scale in relationship to the historic building, and using appropriate proportions.
- 2. Design new additions so that it is 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. Additions shall be distinguishable from the historic building, but shall be compatible in terms of mass, materials, size, texture, and scale. Additions shall be designed so they can be removed without destroying the form of the historic building.
- 4. New additions should not be visible from streets.
- 6. Do not cause a loss of historic character through a new addition.
