Watson House. 121 W. Bleeker. Asoen. Colorado Site Location: Block 58, Part of Lot C, Lot D, and Part of Lot E, City of Aspen 6000 s.f. (60'x100') Site Size: Zone: R-6 Medium Density Residential BACKGROUND Dr. and Mrs. Edward Watson were granted a Rear Yard Setback Variance In September 1991 to permit the construction of a 1 car garage at their house located at 121 W. Bleeker. Aller completion of construction of the garage it became evident that the Watson's children and their friends were gaining access to the garage roof from a window in the upper level of the east end of their adjacent playhouse. (The children were going onto the roof to retrieve balls, Frisbees, etc.) In addition, the upper level of the playhouse is remote from the main house as it is connected only by lower level breezeway, and it was feared that in case of fire the children would require egress from their upper level play area. This added to the need to make the garage roof safe and able to be exited. Hence the safety rail and circular stair were erected in June of 1993. VARIANCE REQUEST This variance is respectfully requested as it would pennit a rail and stair that are not only necessary from a safety standpoint but also present minimal visual impact. (Please see attached photographs.) The rail is constructed of one inch steel tubing and stainless steel cables and is therefore difficult at best to see, and the circular stair is in fact located behind the garage to make it Impossible to see from any public viewpoint -`7-EL jASPEN October 12, 1993 To Whom It May Concern: I am writing this in regards to the fence on top of the garage of the Watson residence at 121 W. Bleeker . Neither the Management nor the Hotel guests have any complaints against the fence. The comments I have heard have all been favorable.

Aspen, Co. 81611 Re: Garage Railing Diane: Please pass along this letter to the proper authorities . We feel that the garage railing is not at all architecturally disturbing to the neighborhood; on the contrary, it reminds us of the widows' walk so often seen on true Victorians . Furthermore, as our children play with yours, the added safety feature should outweigh any concerns of the committee objecting; particularly since the rail is not really visible from the street .
