ADJOURN MEMORANDUM To: Aspen Historic Preservation Committee From: Roxanne Eflin, Historic Preservation Planner Re: Landmark Designation and Minor Development: 132 W. Main, Asia parcel (Tabled from April 11, 1990) Date: May 9, 1990 LOCATION: 132 W. Main, Lots K, L, M., N and the West half of Lot 0, Block 58, City and Townsite of Aspen APPLICANT: Steve and Lily Ko APPLICANT'S REQUEST: Landmark Designation for the entire parcel in order to take advantage of the incentives offered a designated landmark. The parcel consists of 132 W. Main (previously designated), 122 W. Main, which has now been moved forward on the lot and attached to 132 W. Main, and the vacant parcel to the east of the structure. The applicant is also requesting Minor Development approval for the alterations proposed to the historic structure: stair and entry addition to northeast corner of structure, handicapped ramp and dormer. A few windows are also proposed to be replaced. PREVIOUS HPC ACTION: This item was reviewed by the HPC for Landmark Designation on April 11, 1990, and tabled at the request of the applicant until this date. The applicant states they submitted an applicant for Minor Development which was to be reviewed by the HPC also on April 11, however, staff did not receive it for memo preparation purposes (which may have been the fault of the Planning office). The Minor Development application is being reviewed at this meeting. Last fall, the HPC granted Final Development approval for a two- story detached infill structure. PROCEDURE FOR REVIEW: Landmark designation is a three-step process, requiring recommendations from both HPC and P&Z (public hearing at P&Z level), then first and second reading (public hearing at Final reading) Of the designation ordinance by Council. Minor Development is a one-step process, requiring no public hearing. HISTORIC LANDMARK DESIGNATION STANDARDS: The Standards for Landmark Designation are found in Section 7-702(A) of the Land Use Code. Any structure or site that meets one (1) or' more of the standards may be designated as a Historic Landmark. A. Historic Importance. The structure or site is a principal or secondary structure or site commonly identified or associated with a person or an event of historical significance of the cultural, social or political history of Aspen, the State of Colorado, or the United States. Response: 132 W. Main, the c.1888 George Moser House, was designated in the 1970's. 122 W. Main, referred to as the c. 1888 Jason Freeman House, has not yet been designated. No information on the Freeman's or exist to meet the criteria in Standard #1. No information has been received on the vacant lot to substantiate Standard #1 criteria. B. Architectural Importance: The structure or site reflects an architectural style that is unique, distinct or of traditional Aspen character. Response: While both cottages have been changed substantially over the years, particularly in the early 80's when they were joined, we find that they still represent the miner's cottage style architecture common in Aspen. The vacant lot does not meet this standard. C. Architectural Importance: The structure or site embodies the distinguishing characteristics of a significant or unique architectural type or specimen. Response: The Planning Office finds this standard is not met. D. Architectural Importance: The structure is a significant work of an architect whose individual work has influenced the character of Aspen. Response: The Planning Office finds this standard is not met. E. Neighborhood Character: The structure or site is a significant component of an historically significant neighborhood and the preservation of the structure or site is important for the maintenance of that neighborhood character. Response: The Planning Office feels that the preservation of the two cottages is critical to the context of the Main Street Historic District. Previously, the HPC granted Final Development approval for a detached infill structure on the parcel. The applicant's need for office allocation is obvious, however, we feel that 2 designation of the parcel to bypass the GMQS competition is not the intent of the designation provisions of the code. Another argument can be made that the community is not getting a "preservation project" from this designation request. To staff's knowledge, no plans have been made to renovate and clean up the existing historic cottage " comp 1 ex " . F. Community Character: The structure or site is critical to the preservation of the character of the Aspen community because of its relationship in terms of size, location and architectural similarity to other structures or sites of historical or architectural importance. Response: We find that the two cottages meet this standard, however the vacant parcel does not. ------ MINOR DEVELOPMENT: Staff finds that adding more to this already confusing complex of historic cottages and additions does not enhance the character of the structure. We do, however, understand the need for these changes in making the structure more functional for dwelling units. The only significant element we disagree with is the handicapped ramp off the sidewalk leading to the new east entry. The HPC has reviewed handicapped ramps in the past for historic structures along Main Street, and have stated that these are to access the structure from the rear (alley), and are not to appear from Main Street. The remaining elements are designed compatibly and are relatively small in scale. In general, however, we do not support the idea of more added to this complex, without a master plan for significant exterior changes. DESIGNATION DISCUSSION: It would appear from the last designation review (Lily Reid) that the HPC should revisit the intent of this standard, specifically the meaning of the word "site" when making this determination. The preservation of a vacant lot does not meet the intent of this standard, in our opinion. The Planning Office maintains that "site" is defined as the land immediately associated with the historic structure, visually and/or historically. The applicant discussed the historic development of these three 3 lots at the April 11 meeting, producing copies of historic assessor documents to support the case that there were three detached structure, one per lot, in c. 1890. To consider designation, the current integrity of the site is analvzed. If no historic resource remains, and the "site" is void of any significance as simply a "site", i.e. battlefield, etc., then landmark status cannot be granted based on what "used to be there". SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION: In discussion with the HPC, the applicant's principal reasons to pursue landmark designation for the entire parcel are timing and exemption from Growth Management (allocation). The Planning Department feels that it is not appropriate to use the landmark designation mechanism in this way, believing that a negative precedent will be set. In other similar cases, we are recommending designation for a portion of the larger parcel immediately associated with the historic resource (i.e. 17 Queen Street, 801 E. Hyman). The Planning Office supports Landmark Designation for the remaining non-designated historic cottage (122 W. Main), however, NOT the vacant parcel. We find that the remainder of the parcel does not meet the criteria for Landmark Designation, as stated above. The incentives program has been specifically developed to aid in the preservation, rehabilitation and adaptive use of historic and significant structures that have received landmark designation in Aspen. The Planning Office feels that the entire parcel does not meet the standards to be eligible for designation. The Planning Office wiil work with the applicant should they wish to pursue sponsoring a code amendment to revise the office quota allocation. We are in support of the new office space/structure proposed. RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Office's recommendation for landmark designation remains the same as stated in the April 11 memo: The HPC recommend Landmark Designation for the remaining portion of the parcel containing a historic structure. We recommend that the applicant define the legal description of the lots associated with the historic cottage-complex and submit same to the Planning Office prior to scheduling this item for review by the Planning and Zoning Commission. We further recommend approval for the minor development proposal, subject to the removal of the handicapped ramp off the front of the parcel, and redesigned to the rear. memo.pz.309eh 4 ATTACHMENT 3 1. The proposed development mainly involves renovations to the interior spaces of the building. The proposal, as shown on the attached plans, makes changes to the utilization of space, interior stairways, and flow of traffic. The only exterior changes are minor ones that will not, individually or considered as a whole, have a significant effect on the character of the existing building. The exterior will be repaired, refurbished, or repainted as necessary using materials consistent with the existing ones. There will be a new stairwayon the Northeast corner providing access to the employee units on the second floor. A handicapped access ramp will be added on the East side of the building leading to the ground floor. A dormer with windows will be added on the East side of the second story to provide 'light and ventilation to the employee units. 2. All building materials will either be the same (wherever possible) as the existing materials or materials closely compatible with them. 3. A scale drawing is provided. 4. The minor changes proposed should have no appreciable impact on the character of the building or of the neighborhood. The interior remodeling will maintain the present style. The exterior changes are all minor ones which do not materially increase the actual .or apparent mass of the structure. All of the changes are ' ' located on the East side of the building where they will be barely visible from viewers beyond the property itself, particularly from either Main or First Street. MEMORANDUM , , A ) TO: Aspen Historic Preservation Committee From: Roxanne Eflin, Planning Office Re: Conceptual Development: 409 E. Hopkins, the Alpine Bank parcel, Public Hearing Date: May 9, 1990 --------- LOCATION: 409 E. Hopkins, Lots D, E, and F, Block 88, City and Townsite of Aspen, Colorado APPLICANT: Alpine Bank, on behalf Of Laura Donnelley, represented by Bill Poss and Associates APPLICANT'S REQUEST: Conceptual Development approval for the construction of a new three-story mixed-use infill structure between the National Register Brand Building and the National Register Collins Block/addition. The structure is proposed for single use commercial on the main floor, free market and deed restricted affordable housing on the second floor, and free market on the third. An auto lift is proposed off the alley, accessing below grade parking for the free market units and commercial space. Six affordable studio units are proposed for the second floor, incorporating the previously approved Lane Parcel units. A 15' setback is proposed, creating 15% open space (10% is proposed to be mitigated with cash-in-lieu). Plaza landscaping similar to the Pitkin Center is proposed for this space. The applicant is further requesting the demolition of all improvements currently on the parcel, however, an application for demolition has not been submitted to the Planning Office. Conceptual Development approval is required prior to the submittal of a Growth Management Application to the Planning Office. ZONING: CC, "H" Historic Overlay District ~ SITE, hAREA AND BULK CHARACTERISTICS: Due to GMQS competition \forthcoming (application deadline is June 1), the applicant has not-/kuppl:Led the Planning Office with FAR f igures for HPC' s review. Therefore, the HPC is basically asked to give conceptual development approval on the facade and alley elevation. Please refer to staff's recommendation for an additional review of the parcel as a whole following complete GMQS application submission in June. EXISTING CONDITIONS: A number of uses currently exist on this parcel, which are all slated for removal: One story Alpine Bank building (non-historic) Sculpture Garden (waterfall and Meadow in the Sky sculpture) Garden seating area for the Smuggler Land Office restaurant Note: Staff suggests that the applicant sponsor a code amendment changing Section 7-602 D. of the Land Use Regulations, adding paragraph #6 to include an "Exemption" clause for non-historic, non-significant structures within a historic district for demolition or relocation. PROBLEM DISCUSSION: The applicable Guidelines are found in Section IV. Commercial Buildings - New Construction beginning on page 35. The Development review standards are found in Section 7-601 of the Land Use Code, and are reviewed below (staff's comments follow): 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 a Historic Landmark... Response: The Guidelines state: " In all new commercial construction, compatibility to adjacent building types should be considered. Broad-scale characteristics such as the range of the building heights and their alignment at the sidewalk should be studied. At the same time, the designer should recognize fine-grained aspects such as facade composition and decoration." "The intent of the design guidelines for infill construction is to identify the elements most critical to the character of the historic commercial area and to insure that these elements are incorporated into new designs." Staff finds that these general characteristics have been considered by the applicant, however, the following issues must be considered when reviewing and analyzing the compatibility of this infill project: 1. Setback: The guidelines state "Plazas or courts that break the continuity of the facade alignment should be avoided. Maintain the general alignment of facades at the sidewalk edge. In some cases a courtyard may be considered if it has an active function or gives desired relief for the purpose of allowing a historic 2 landmark to stand out more prominently." The HPC should consider this 15' setback carefully, utilizing the model to test whether a straight streetedge alignment or varying depths of setback are appropriate. It appears at this conceptual stage that some depth of setback is appropriate for the purpose of allowing the two corner landmarks to stand out. The 1904 Sanborn Insurance Map section attached indicates this parcel was never fully built out to street edge, therefore, historic precedence has not been set.-1, 2. C Alignment and Rhythm of Facade Details: We find the 4<general patterns of the facades blend well, with the following exceptions: . ,% r K KI.LJ I / j_Lft,t ' a) Storefront bulkhead panel appears too narrow. b) Main floor flanking entrance doors appear too "residential"; these need to relate better to the commercial character of the facade and district. c) Second floor too narrow/thin; appears out of balance with the two adjacent structures. The banding between the 2nd and 3rd floors appears too heavy and out of scale. d) Second floor windows servicing the stair tower on each end are extremely narrow and appear incompatible. e) The parapet is much too heavily articulated. The center ridge of the pediment measures 421, exceeding maximum allowable. The roof edge is not subordinate to flanking landmarks, and appears too high and overwhelming in relation to the historic landmarks on the block. f) The proposed building and awning materials appear compatible (red brick, sandstone, wood trim and windows, acrylic/canvas awning. 3. Massing: Infill construction within the district is critical to review in respect the characteristics of neighboring historic structures. Two National Register structures flank the subject parcel proposed. The proposal appears to meet the massing criteria guidelines, however, staff and members of the Planning 3 Office feel further study is warranted to consider stepping back the third floor mass from both the street edge and the one-story Collins Block infill. Staff has yet to see this approach successfully designed in the core, however, we feel that this must be innovatively considered and demonstrated to the HPC. It would appear that the relief a third floor step back could create would be a positive design solution to both the street and the adjacent structures. Staff feels strongly that the HPC should carefully consider this stepback approach before further review of the facade. Other public comments staff has received on the proposal has focused on the structure being "too big", "too high" and "too massive three stories high with no break or stepback". The steep canyon created between the west elevation of the proposed structure and the adjacent building (Collins infill) is extreme. As the Collins Block parcel is nearly maximized in FAR, it is highly unlikely that an additional story will be constructed onto the infill building. Therefore, staff recommends that a softening of this canyon effect be considered in a massing step back. 4. Storefronts: The proposal appears to meet the storefront guidelines, however, we are recommending further study and the submittal of more detailed storefront plans to determine exact proportions and detailing. 5. Windows and Openings: Wood windows are proposed, which meet the guidelines. The spacing pattern of the opening presents a very symmetrical facade, however, the relation of the proposed second and third floor openings to the Brand and Collins Block appear slightly incompatible, and should be studied carefully. The windows appear squat in relation to their historic neighbors. The facade's second and third floor may benefit from slightly taller windows. The south elevation (alley) windows bear no relation to the facade. The first and second floor windows appear deeply recessed, and the third floor is primarily transparent (for views of the mountain). Staff feels the alley elevation should attempt to relate somewhat to the character Of the facade. This may be accomplished with a change in window style alone. 4 - 6. Materials: Brick, sandstone and wood are proposed, which meet the guidelines. Staff is supportive of this combination on this block, however, we recommend that the use of sandstone be very subordinate and less ornate than the existing structures on that block, including the new Collins infill building. Canvas/acrylic awnings are proposed, which are characteristic in the district. 7. Signage: This has not been discussed, and should be clarified at Final. 2. Standard: The proposed development reflects and is consistent with the character of the neighborhood of the parcel proposed for development. Response: The applicant states that the Hotel Jerome viewplane is unaffected in this proposal due to the steep angle of the corridor. Staff's comments under Standard #1 also deal with Neighborhood Standard #2. 3. Standard: The proposed development enhances or does not detract from the cultural value of designated historic structure located on the parcel proposed for development or adjacent parcels. Response: We find that there is argument as to the impact this size infill structure will have on the cultural value of the two adjacent National Register structures. In order to not detract from their value to the community, these must remain prominent and pure of integrity without an overshadowing building encroaching onto their visual and historic sense of place in the district. The development of a plaza/entry may add to the cultural value of the district. Landscaping and surface treatments should be carefully considered by both the applicant and the HPC. 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: No designated structures exist on this parcel, therefore this standard does not apply. ALTERNATIVES: The HPC may consider the following alternatives: 1. Approve the Conceptual Development as submitted 41 3. Approve the Conceptual Development with conditions, to be met at Final Development review, such as 4. Table action to a da '-3 specific, to allow the applicant further time to St :dy the proposal and revise the setback, massing, height, parapet and second floor fenestration. 5. Deny Conceptual Development approval finding that the application does not meet the development review standards. 1 / / /RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Office recommends that the HPC ~ table conceptual development approval to a date certain, to allow the applicant further time to study the proposal and revise the C C 1.-C setback, massing, height, parapet and second floor fenestration, 4 4 and submit a completed application requesting demolition of the ~ C & existing improvements on the parcel. No conceptual approval may ~ i~ be granted for the redevelopment of the parcel without the HPC,1 s / treview and approval of a demolition or relocation application. C «/ d --433-7 -- Staff recommends that the applicant sponsor a code amendment changing Section 7-602 D. of the Land Use Regulations, adding paragraph #6 to include an "Exemption" clause for non-historic, non-significant structures within a historic district for demolition or relocation. The Planning Office further recommends that the HPC review the entire proposal once the GMQS application has been submitted in June. The preposal as submitted is vague regarding the Lane Parcel affordable dwelling units' incorporation into the Alpine Bank structure; the complete program/building must be reviewed by the HPC to determine complete compatibility within the district. memo.hpc.409eh.2 6 F e}.1 B Ek-2 *GO- r. 27· 841 ..17;,3837*ma.* If~t:£7~1:3~~- ~ 605 EAST MAIN STREET ASPEN, COLORADO81611 TEL: (303) 925-4755 April 30, 1990 Roxanne Eflin Aspen/Pitkin Planning Office 130 S Galena Aspen, CO 81611 APR 0 1990 Re: Alpine Bank Dear Roxanne: Please accept the revised HPC Submittal drawings for the above referenced project. We feel this design better addresses both the review standards and the HPC guidelines. Review Standards: A. The proposed bank is still set back approximately fifteen feet from the property line. We feel this location allows the designated structures on each side to remain prominent. A strong sense of compatibility is displayed by the essentially straight street facade. In addition, the strong horizontal lines created by details and awnings on the Brand Building and the Collins Block are carried through on the Alpine Bank. We have also included some vertical pilasters which are very prevalentonthe Brand Building. Finally, the materials to be used on the Alpine Bank are brick and stone with wood windows, doors and storefronts. These materials are identical in concept to those on the neighboring landmarks. Our intent is to use these materials in such a way that the new Alpine Bank will compliment rather than detract, or compete with its neighbors.

With respect to height, the top of the parapet is 39'81' above existing grade. As you know, the height limit in the CC Zone is 40'0". A number of buildings directly across the alley from this project approach the limit. For that reason, we feel we are not only compatible, but it is essential that we achieve this height to look over neighboring buildings and have a view to the mountains. In addition, our proposed solution is only - approximately 4 feet above the Brand Building and 7 feet above the Collins Block. It is importantto note that the historic portions of the Collins Block are separated from the proposed bank by a one story structure which we feel acts as a buffer between the two buildings. With respect to massing, we have decided it is most appropriate to present a 3 story facade rather than to hold the third floor back from the front edge. If the third floor were to be held back, it would still be visible and have a 'wedding cake' appearance not in keeping with the HPC guidelines. C. The cultural value of the landmarks on the adjacent parcels derives itself from the use of the structures. In both cases, those uses are residential over commercial space. Since our uses are identical, there should be no detraction and quite possibly an enhancement to the cultural value of the immediate neighborhood. D. Review Standard D does not apply to this project. Roxanne, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call. Finally, we will have a model for the meeting on the 9th of May; and a study model is now in our office if you want to review in preparation of your memo.

AICP Land Planning and Design May 3, 1990 Ms. Roxanne Eflin Aspen Pitkin Planning Offjce 130 South Galena Aspen co 81611 Dear Roxanne: As we discussed last night, I raised the issue of programmatic information for the Alpine Bank at our meeting this morning. The problem we discussed was the fact that not only is our program not finalized, but also if we provide a detailed breakdown of square footages for public discussion, it puts our project at a disadvantage to any C-1 projects which may be planning to come in for a commercial allocation. As you know, such projects are not subject to public review prior to GMQS competition. Having said that, I can report that we are planning a project in the neighborhood of 18,000 to 20,000 square feet of FAR floor area which will include both commercial and residential square footage as well as affordable housing. We are taking into account the bui.ldout previously approved for not only the Lane Parcel but also for the Collins Block parcel to assure that we do not violate the floor area limitations for the various properties; in addition, we want to be sure that we maintain the prior commitments for affordable housing on the Lane Parcel. I hope this information will suffice for the HPC's conceptual review of the project. Sincerely, .//A , .~tuf~//0 /' .Joseph Wells, AICP JW/b 130 Midland Park Place, Number Fl Aspen.
