FROM: Amy Amidon, Historic Preservation Officer RE: 107 Juan Street- Relocation, PUBLIC HEARING DATE: February 23, 1994 SUMMARY: This project involves on-site relocation of a Victorian miner's cottage (listed on the Inventory) and the creation of six affordable housing units. The Housing Authority and HPC have worked closely together td determine an appropriate redevelopment plan for this parcel. Worksessions were held on September 8, 1993 and January 26, 1994. HPC is now being asked to approve relocation of the historic structure. NOTE: A second strubture 00 the property is to be demolished. This structure fs not included on the Inventory. APPLICANT: Aspen/Pitkin Housing, Authority. Gibson and Reno are the project architects. LOCATION: 107 Juan Street, Lots 3,4,5 and 6, Block 11, Eames Addition to the City and Townsite *of Aspen. PROCEDURE FOR REVIEW:. Under Section 7-602 of the Aspen Land Use Code, no relocation of any structure included in the Inventory of Historic Sites and Structures of the City of Aspen, established pursuant to section 7-709, shall be permitted unless the relocation is approved by the HPC because it meets the standards of section 7-602(D). Section 7-602(D): Standards for Review of Relocation 1. Standard: The structure cannot be rehabilitated or reused on its original site to ·provide for any reasonable beneficial use of the property. Response: The structure has been vacant for a number of years. The Housing Authority wishes to incorporate it into an affordable housing developm?nt, and proposes to relocate the historic building appr6ximately 15 feet to the north and 20 feet to the west in order to make the best use of the land. 2. Standard: The relocation activity is demonstrated to be the best preservation method for the character and integrity of the structure, and the historic integrity ' of the existing neighborhood and adjacent structure will not be diminished due to the reloGation. . L Response: The proposed location for the historic structure maintains the building's original orientation and allows it to remain a prominent feature of this neighborhood. 107 Juan Street is the only extant Victorian structure from the Eames Addition, which once contained more than fifty houses. Today, most of the buildings in this neighborhood are condominiums, although a few smaller houses and some skier chalet style architecture remain, especially around Juan Street. The Housing Authority ptoposes to' locate the Victorian structure close to the existing small homes in order to provide a gentle transition .between them and the new affordable housing units. In response to HPC comments, an addition is no longer being proposed for the historic structure.· The committee has expressed a desire to see the Victorian preserved in its existing appearance. Staff suggests that some thought should still be given to whether or 'not the porch element on the historic building is appropriate. After researching historic maps from the·late 1800's and early 1900's, staff has determined that this house has never had a porch. Although porches are generally encouraged and this porch visually connects the historic resource to the new structures, :this is an addition of an unoriginal feature to the main facade of the building. Also in response to HPC comments, the applicants have changed the massing of the boilding immediately east of the histdric structure and have oriented the entrance for that building to the street. The Housing Authority is still trying to determine whether the entrance to the underground parking can be limited to one lane. 3. Standard: The structure has been demonstrated to be capable of withstanding the physical impacts of -the relocation and re-siting. A structural report shall be submitted by a licensed engineer demonstrating the soundness of the structure ·proposed for relocation. Response: Due to financial and time constraints, the applicant has requested that the structural report be made a condition of approval. Staff recommends that the HPC include that conditioh in their decision. No building permit will be issued until .this report is submitted· to' the Planning Department. 4. Standard: A relocation plan shall be submitted, including .posting a bond or other f inancial security. with the engineering.department, as approved by the HPC, to insure the safe relocation, :preservation and repair (if required) Of the strricture, site preparation and infrastructure connections. The·receiving site shall be prepared in advance of the physical relocation. - Response: The Housing Authority has requested that the relocation plan and bond also be made conditions of approval. Staff recommends HPC include this condition in their decision. No building permit will be issued until the relocation plan and .bond are submitted to the Planning Department. HPC should set a value for the bond at this meeting. 5. Standard: The receiving site is-compatible in nature to the structure or structures proposed to be moved, the character of the neighborhood is consistent with the architectural integrity of the structure, and the location of the historic structure would not diminish the integrity or character of the neighborhood of the receiving site. An acceptance letter from the property owner of the receiving site shall be submitted. Response: This project involves an on-site relocation of an historic structure, therefore staff finds that there will not be a negative impact on the dharacter of the neighborhood. ALTERNATIVES: The HPC may. consider any of the following actions: 1) Approve the relocation application as submitted. 2) Approve the relocation application with conditions. 3) Deny the relocation application, finding that it does not meet the relocation standards. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that HPC.approve the relocation of 107 Juan Street with the followin* conditions: 1. Before applying for a building permit, the applicant Will submit a structural report from a licensed engineer, demonstrating the soundness of the structure and describing any structural bracing that will be necessary during the relocation. 2. Before applying for a building permit, the applicant will provide a relocation plan which f shows how the receiving site will be prepared, and will secure a bond (value to be set by HPC) to insure safe relocation of the building. 3. The applicant should limit the width of the underground garage opening-to one lane, if this is found to meet safety standards. 4. The applicant should not construct a front porch on the historic resource. PUBLIC NOTICE RE: 107 JUAN STREET SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a public hearing will be held on Wednesday, February 23, 1994, at a meeting to begin at 5:00 pm before the Aspen Historic Preservation Committee in the second floor meeting room, City Hall, 130 S. Galena Street, Aspen, Colorado, to consider an application submitted by the Aspen/Pitkin Housing Authority requesting approval for the on-site relocation of the historic building at 107 Juan Street as part of an Affordable Housing Project. The property is located on Lots 3-6, Block 11, Eames Addition to the City and Townsite of Aspen. For further information, contact Amy Amidon at the Aspen Pitkin Planning Office, 130 S.

Development under this plan included restoration of the barn and salt shed, reconstruction of the cupola on the barn, construction of display areas and a deck and landscaping treatments. Aspen Historical Society has been advised by their museum consultant that the bathrooms, which were to be built inside the barn, must be relocated for circulation and security reasons. The Society is therefore requesting HPC approval to locate the bathrooms under the existing lean-to on the south side of the building. In addition, the Society would like to install two work sinks next to the bathrooms and a bathroom and worksink inside of the salt shed. No changes to the salt shed will-be visible from the exterior of the building. This property is an Aspen Landmark and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. APPLICANT: The Aspen Historical Society, represented by Graeme Means. LOCATION: 40180 Highway 82, Marolt Open Space. See attached legal description. Development Review Standards 1. Standard: The proposed development is compatible in character with designated historic structures located on the parcel and with development on adjacent parcels when· the subject site is in an H, Historic Overlay District or is adjacent to an Historic Landmark. For Historic Landmarks where proposed development would extend into front yard, side yard and rear yard setbacks, extend intd the minimum distance between buildings on the lot or exceed the allowed floor areas, HPC shall find that such variation is more compatible in character with the historic landmark, than would be development in accord with dimensional requirements. Response: The proposed development is lochted under an existing lean-to which is open along the south wall. The bathrooms are to be covered with vertical siding, which should match the siding used to reconstruct the cupola. In an effort to minimize the visual impact of the bathrooms on the historic structure, staff suggests that they be redesigned slightly. Under the original approval for this work in 1991, the Building Department determined that one bathroom could serve as both the women's room and as a unisex handicapped accessible bathroom, and the men's room could be of standard size. Therefore, in the plans which are before HPC at this time, the proposed men's room could become the women's/ handicapped accessible bathroom and the·proposed women's room could be changed into a smaller men's room. This would decrease the overall length of the bathroom addition by approximately three feet .and the bathroom wall would no longer cover part of the second story window. Staff finds that the worksinks adjacent to the bathrooms are a visible intrusion and should be located inside of the existing structures. Perhaps the one sink which is being placed inside of the salt shed would be sufficient. 2. Standard: The proposed development reflects and is consistent with the character of the neighborhood of the.parcel proposed for development. Response: This area is intended to be used.as public open space and as a museum for the interpretation of mining and ranching history. The Society must provide bathrooms for their visitors and should do so in a way which causes the least impact on the historic structures as well as on the site as a whole. 3. Standard: The proposed development enhances or does not detract from the cultural value of designated historic structures located on the parcel proposed for development or adjacent parcels. Response: Given that the bathrooms must be located outside of the barn, the proposed location seems to have less impact on the cultural value of this site than would construction of an "outhouse" building. 4. Standard: The proposed development enhances or does not diminish or detract from the architectural integrity of a designated historic structure or part thereof. Response: The proposed bathrooms are fraestanding· from the historic structure. Staff finds that there should be no mechanical connection between the historic building and the bathroom walls and that no historic building materials should be damaged by this new construction. The lean-to is apparently not original to the structure, but should be considered historically significant, nonetheless. ALTERNATIVES: The HPC may consider any Of the following alternatives: 1) Approve the Minor development application as submitted. 2) Approve the Minor development application with conditions to be met prior to issuance of a building permit. 3) Table the proposal, allowing the applicant additional time for restudy (specific recommendations should be offered.) 4) Deny the application, finding that the Design Review Standards have not been met. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends HPC approve the application, with the condition that the bathroom dimensions are reduced as described and the worksinks are placed inside one of the structures.

Galena Aspen, CO 81611 Dear Amy and HPC Members, On behalf of the Aspen Historical Society, I would like to request a hearing before the HPC for an amendment to our previous HPC approval for the Holden-Marolt Museum Project. The changes we would like to make involve moving the toilet facilities from inside the barn to underneath the south overhang. Our museum consultant has strongly recommended removing the toilets from the barn in order to facilitate circulation and security. Upon reviewing this change, we feel that it works much better with our operating plan and makes the facilities more accessible. The toilet facilities would be set back nine feet from the edge of the overhang and we feel they would have only a minimal visual impact on the structure. Furthermore, they will be introduced into a portion of the building which is a later addition to the original building. We understand that we are on the agenda for 23 February to review this matter. Please call if you have any questions.

The basement will be accessed by extending the existing interior staircase in the south west corner of the building. In order to meet safety codes, a second exit must be created on the opposite end of the basement. The applicants have stated that it would not be possible to use the existing interior staircase in the north east corner of the building as this second egress. This solution appears to be cost prohibitive and would require substantial redesign of the existing staircase. The City has determined, therefore, that an exterior stair should be constructed on the east side of the building. The proposed stair is meant to be functional and also to be a pleasant area which allows additional light into the basement. The City is also proposing a large lightwell on the south side of the building. The lightwell will be covered with a decorative metal grate. In addition, the City plans to open up the bricked-in window on the south facade and insert a new window. No window has been specified at this time; staff will bring several options back to HPC in the near future. City Hall is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is an Aspen Landmark. As the Colorado Historical Society holds a preservation covenant on the exterior of the building, HPC's recommendation will be forwarded to them for final approval. APPLICANT: The City of Aspen, represented by Cris Caruso, City Engineer and Raul Gawrys, architect. LOCATION: 130 S. Galena Street, Lots K,L and M, Block 93, City and Townsite of Aspen. Development Review Standards 1. Standard: The proposed development is compatible in character with designated historic structures located on the parcel and with development on adjacent parcels when the subject site is in an H, Historic Overlay District or is adjacent to an Historic Landmark. For Historic Landmarks where proposed development would extend into front yard, side yard and rear yard setbacks, extend into the minimum distance between buildings on the lot or exceed the allowed floor areas, HPC shall find that such variation is more compatible in character with the historic landmark, than would be development in accord with dimensional requirements. Response: Original exterior stairways and lightwells can be found on historic buildings throughout the Commercial Core. (See the Elks Building, the Independence Building and the Wheeler Opera House for examples.) Staff finds that adding a stair and a lightwell to Armory Hall is not out of character with the building or the neighborhood. Staff also recognizes that this is a National Register structure and that it sits in the only city block in Aspen which contains only 19th century structures. City Hall is a very prominent building and is easily visible from all four sides. In order to be compatible with this important historic structure and to limit the impact on the existing park and sidewalk, staff recommends that the size of the staircase and lightwell should be minimized as much as possible. By decreasing the overall opening into the basement slightly, relocating the entrance opening to the far right and decreasing the width of the lowest part of the stairs, the staircase length could be decreased by at least several feet. The applicants have indicated that the stairwell will be built with colored concrete, to soften it's appearance. If possible (for structural reasons,) the basement wall should be built of brick which matches the dimensions and color of the historic brick. Mortar samples should be taken and the new wall constructed with a mortar compatible in strength and color to that of the original structure. If the wall must be built of concrete, the face brick and mortar should be compatible with the historic brick and should be set on an even plane with the existing wall. (Note: the existing infill brick above the steel lintel is not considered compatible to the historic building. New brick should be laid in the same pattern as the historic building.) Windows installed at the basement level should be double hung, similar in dimensions to the historic windows and made of wood. Staff finds that the lightwell will not be intrusive, but, at 17 feet, is too large. The exposed wall and windows in this lightwell should follow the same guidelines as specified for the basement entrance. 2. Standard: The proposed development reflects and is consistent with the character of the neighborhood of the parcel proposed for development. Response: The proposed elements are in character with the Commercial Core. 3. Standard: The proposed development enhances or does not detract from the cultural value of designated historic structures located on the parcel proposed for development or adjacent parcels. Response: If the visual impacts of the new staircase can be minimized as described under standard 1, staff finds that the cultural value of this structure will not be diminished. 4. Standard: The proposed development enhances or does not diminish or detract from the architectural integrity of a designated historic structure or part thereof. Response: Original building materials will not be affected by this proposal, as most of the work will be new construction. Extreme care should be taken to protect the historic structure during construction. ALTERNATIVES: The HPC may consider any of the following alternatives: 1) Approve the application as submitted. 2) Approve the application with conditions to be met prior to issuance of a building permit. 3) Table the proposal to allow the applicant time for restudy (specific recommendations should be offered. 4) Deny the application, finding that the Design Review Standards have not been met. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that HPC table the application, and provide the applicant with the following direction: 1. The applicant should decrease the size (length) of the lightwell opening on the south facade. 2. The applicant should decrease the overall size of the stairwell entrance. 3. HPC must review exact descriptions or samples of the brick, mortar, windows, doors, railing and grate before issuance Of a building permit. e a . 2 ''11. C , .,.410, le·-•.,1..

Alleys are very important transportation ways in Aspen, but are generally used only as a service areas and not recognized as potential areas for pedestrian and retail activity. In the immercial core, alleys could have small "backdoor" shops and 1 fes. This could be a good location for "neighborhood commer·cial" businesses, which would offer bas'ic services and goods. In residential areas, the Cottage Infill Plogram encourages the development of affordable housing .in the form of small outbuildings along the alleys. Staff will present photographs of existing alleyscapes at the meeting. RESOLUTION NO. 94-1 RESOLUTION OF THE ASPEN HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMITTEE RECOMMENDING TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF ASPEN, COLORADO, ADOPTION OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE HISTORIC DISTRICT AND HISTORIC LANDMARK DEVELOPMENT GUIDELINES WHEREAS, the Historic Preservation Committee of Aspen, Colorado (hereinafter "HPC") created the "Historic District and Historic Landmark Development Guidelines" in 1986-1987; and WHEREAS, City Council adopted the "Historic District and Historic Landmark Development Guidelines" through Resolution No. 88-2; and WHEREAS, the guidelines were intended to increase community awareness of the historic character of Aspen and to illustrate concepts of compatibility to owners of historic structures and structures within historic districts; and WHEREAS, the HPC has generally found the guidelines to be effective and of value in carrying out the powers and duties assigned to this committee; and WHEREAS, the HPC has determined that the existing guidelines do not provide sufficient direction for development which occurs on the roofs of commercial buildings, including mechanical equipment, satellite dishes, skylights and other such appurtenances; and WHEREAS, the Aspen Area Community Plan recommended amending the guidelines to encourage compatible roof-top activities in the commercial districts. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Historic Preservation Committee: Section 1 That it recommends that City Council adopt the following amendment, adding new language to the "Historic District and Historic Landmark Development Guidelines:" Chapter IV. Commercial Buildings- Renovation and Restoration HVAC equipment, satellite dishes, skylights, antennae, solar collectors and other such appurtanences should be minimized on historic structures. When installed, these objects should be screened from view at the street level and should also be unobtrusive when viewed from above. Rooftop equipment should not be located on roof slopes which are visible from the streets. Place this equipment behind existing building elements when possible, such as parapet walls. pediments or chimnevs, or, in some cases, consider enclosing the element with a structure of similar color and materials as the rest of the building. All equipment shall be painted to match the color of the roof, so that it will fade out. Historic building materials should not be damaged or obscured by the installation of these objects. Chapter V. Commercial Buildings- New Construction HVAC equipment, satellite dishes, skylights, antennae, fire escapes, solar collectors and other such appurtenances should be anticipated at the start of a project and planned as part of the overall design of a new building. Their size and number should be minimized. Use architectural elements to screen equipment or, whenever possible, incorporate these objects into the interior spaces of the building. Rooftop elements should not be visible from the street and should also be unobtrusive when viewed from above. Paint all equipment to match the color of the roof.
