Applicable Guidelines
Fourth and Gill Design Guidelines, adopted by the Knoxville City Council on April 20, 1999 and June 29, 1999.
See Guidelines- WINDOWS
- 7. It can be appropriate to design and install additional windows on the rear or another secondary elevation. The designs should be compatible with the overall design of the building.
- 8. Historic windows should not be blocked in. If ceilings have been dropped, provide a setback of the ceiling to allow for the full height of the original window openings. Do not cut across an existing window with a new floor or ceiling, so that the outside appearance of the window is changed.
- 10. Security bars should only be used on windows that are not visible from public streets, and should be designed to be appropriate with the architecture and design period of the building where they are to be installed.
