Applicable Guidelines
Edgewood-Park City Design Guidelines, adopted by the Knoxville City Council on July 29, 1997.
See Guidelines- WINDOWS
- 1. Reuse original windows. It will be much less expensive and much better historically to retain the
- original windows.
- 2. Storm windows are often considered when a homeowner wants to increase the heating and
- cooling efficiency of a building. Interior storm windows that cannot be seen from the street
- might be a better alternative to exterior storm windows. If exterior storm windows are used,
- they can be wood, or color clad metal to match the building's trim. Exterior storm windows shall
- only be used if they do not damage or obscure the original windows and frames.
- 3. If replacement windows are necessary, they must be the same overall size as the originals, with
- the same pane division, and the same muntin style and exterior depth, width and profile. Thermal
- sash windows that use false muntins are not acceptable.
- DOORS
- 1. Entry features which must be preserved include sidelights and tranwms, fan light windows, entablatures
- and original doors. All add character to the structures in the historic district.
- 2. It may be appropriate to design or construct a new entrance if the historic one is missing. Any
- restoration shall be based on historical, pictorial and physical documentation and be compatible
- with the historic character of the building.
- 3. A replacement entrance must not create a false historic appearance. A new entrance shall be
- compatible in size, scale, materials and color.
- 5. Service or rear entrances shall not be altered to make them appear more formal by adding paneled
- doors, fanlights or sidelights.
- 6. Secondary entrances shall be compatible with the originals in size, scale and materials.
