BACKGROUND:
recommendation
Christy Cabassa is requesting conceptual approval for exterior changes and additions to the main structure. This review request is for aesthetic design elements only. These modifications include the addition of porches, a change to some windows and doors, and a rear addition. Research into the original structure shows that this house was moved from 123 E. Gregory Street in 1978 due to interstate construction. Based on historic aerials, Sanborn Fire Insurance maps, newspaper articles and microfilm inspection reports, the house appears to have gone through a number of changes and was listed as “unsafe” by the city in 1977 before it’s move. A historic structure analysis by the University of West Florida Historic Trust is included.
Please find attached all relevant documentation for your review.
