Heart of Knoxville Infill Housing Design Guidelines

- 9. Additions
  - - In making an addition, exterior covering and roof materials, doors, and windows, should be selected like those original to the house.
  - - Additions should be made to the rear or side of the house. Taller additions should be made to the rear of the house to keep the original scale of the front façade consistent with other houses on the block.
  - - The roofline and roofing materials should complement the original house.
