MEMORANDUM To: Aspen Historic Preservation Committee From: Amy Amidon, Historic Preservation Officer Re: 420 E. Main Street, Conceptual Development Date: August 25, 1993 SUMMARY: The applicant requests conceptual approval to expand an existing non-historic office building in the Commercial Core Historic District. The new portion of the structure and the existing building will be faced with brick and sandstone in order to create a uniform facade. APPLICANT: Ron Garfield, represented by Kim Weil of Bill Poss and Associates. LOCATION: 420 E. Main Street, east 1/2 of Lot L and all of Lots M, N, 0, P, Q, R and S, Block 86. SITE, AREA AND BULK INFORMATION: See attachment provided by applicant. ADDITIONAL COMMISSION REVIEWS: Expansion of office space requires GMQS allotment approval. In order to apply for this year's GMP competition (deadline- Sept. 15), this project must receive Conceptual Development approval from HPC. Development Review Standards Section 7-601 of the Aspen Land Use Regulations defines the four Standards for Development Review. All four of these Standards must be met in order for the HPC to grant approval for the proposal. Please see the applicant' s response to the Standards and conceptual drawings (attached.) 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... Response: There are no historic structures on this block, but several landmarked buildings surround the parcel. This proposal respects the materials, scale and block-like massing common to the Commercial Core District. In addition, the building is set directly against the sidewalk and features large storefront .. windows as are encouraged in the Design Guidelines. On the south facade, the building appears to step up in height towards the courthouse. 2. Standard: The proposed development reflects and is consistent with the character of the neighborhood of the parcel proposed for development. Response: The applicant has made an effort to address the potential for increased pedestrian activity in this area. While Main Street and the Commercial Core in general have a lot of pedestrian traffic, the area from Galena Street east seems to be less lively. This is an important corner as it is located near several public buildings, a park and the parking garage. A visually interesting building which offers retail and office space could be the sort of anchor needed to reinforce the character of this neighborhood. 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 on adjacent parcels. Response: The building draws architectural elements from the surrounding historic buildings without directly imitating them or competing visually with them, and offers some unique details of its own to further distinguish "old" from "new. " 4. Standard: The proposed developement enhances or does not diminish or detract from the architectural integrity of a designated historic structure or part thereof. Response: No historic structure is directly impacted by this proposal. ALTERNATIVES: The HPC may consider any of the following alternatives: 1) Conceptual approval as proposed, finding that the Development Review Standards have been met. 2) Conceptual approval with conditions, to be met at Final. 3) Table action and continue the public hearing to a date certain, allowing the applicant time to revise the proposal to meet the Development Review Standards. 4) Deny Conceptual Development approval, finding that the Development Review Standards have not been met. .. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends HPC grant conceptual approval for the project as submitted. Additional Comments: - 2-.

Galena Plaza will be located on the southeast corner of the Central Bank property and includes the existing small office building located there. Our opinion is that this project should be categorized as an 'expansion or erection of a structure wherein the increase in floor area of the structure is more than 250 square feet". Located on the northwest corner of Galena and Main Streets, the property lies on the edge of the commercial core. There are no historic structures on the property. However, two designated structures, the Pitkin County Courthouse and the rectory of St. Mary's church are located across Galena to the east and south east respectively. The remainder of the neighborhood contains the Local's Corner service station and commercial development, Central Bank, the parking plaza, the recently completed library and the Pitkin County Jail. Presently, the property is underutilized. The office building contains only a temporary tenant. Our feeling is the Galena Plaza project will bring life to neighborhood and strengthen the Galena Street corridor as part of the Aspen Area Dil . ~ and associates GALENA PLAZA August 13, 1993 Page two Community Plan's transportation element. The design of the project was carefully planned to create a building which is interesting but low keyed. A building which did not detract from or try to replicate its historic neighbors. Instead, we feel we have created a project that compliments the variety of uses and architecture in the neighborhood. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project is an expansion and remodel of the existing office building. Expansion will take place to both the east and north. In addition, a second floor will be added. Maximum building height will be approximately 30 feet. This is below both the maximum height limit for the CC zone and height of the courthouse. In addition, the southwest corner of the building will step down to relate the height of the bank building. Principal materials will be brick and sandstone. Storefronts will be made of metal. Street level entries are recessed from the building line. The southeast corner of the project is clipped with a quarter round bay above. On the upper level, there is a mixture of traditionally proportioned metal clad double hung windows and larger metal frame windows. The building contains a varied mix of stone and brick trim elements. Parapets will hide the mechanical equipment. In addition to the renovation of the building, the courtyard will also be upgraded. The railroad tie walls will be removed and replaced. New stairs will also be built. REVIEW STANDARDS 1. Compatibility in character with historic structure. As previously mentioned, the neighborhood has two designated structures, the courthouse and the catholic rectory. Since the rectory is shrouded behind trees and hedges, the courthouse is the major landmark in the neighborhood. Our proposal is compatible in character with the courthouse for a number of reasons. Dil . ~ and associates GALENA PLAZA August 13, 1993 Page three First, the use of brick and sandstone as principle materials allows Galena Plaza to have a presence in the neighborhood without detracting from the courthouse. Second, the traditionally proportioned windows on the east end of the upper level allow this project to participate in and not disturb the rhythms created by similar windows in the courthouse. Third, the use of brick and sandstone banding give the project a more horizontal appearance similar to that at the courthouse. Finally, the concentration of stone at the base gives the project a sold foundation like that of the courthouse. 2. Compatibility in character with the neighborhood. As described before, this is a very diverse neighborhood, both functionally and architecturally. Our goal with this project was to create a structure that was interesting on its own without detracting from any other structure. Three elements were used to achieve this goal. First, since brick and stone are the principle materials, the building fits in with the neighborhood. A building of almost any other material would call too much attention to itself. Second, by stepping the height, we were able to make a transition from the two story bank building to the three story courthouse. Finally, as mentioned previously, the windows on the east end of the upper level were designed to be compatible with the courthouse. The remaining windows on the upper level are a more contemporary version of traditional proportions so that they relate to a broader range of the surrounding neighborhood as well as the courthouse. 3. Enhances or does not diminish the cultural value of historic structures. Since most of the uses in the neighborhood are of a destination type, this area does not enjoy the same amount of pedestrian traffic as other areas of the downtown core. Our hope is this project and its tenants will draw people to the area so that more people will experience the cultural value of the neighborhood. In this case that value exists in the enlightenment of Aspen's history as evidenced by the courthouse and the rectory. Also, any additional pedestrian activity in the area may help the parking plaza become better utilized. Dil . ~ and associates GALENA PLAZA August 13, 1993 Page four 4. Conclusion. In closing, we feel we created an attractive and compatible building. One that will be an asset to the designated structures and the entire neighborhood. Please review our submission package and contact me if you have any questions or require any additional information. We look forward to your committee's review on August 25, 1993.

Historic Preservation Committee Minutes of August 25, 1993 420 E. MAIN - CONCEPTUAL DEVELOPMENT - PUBLIC HEARING Bill Poss stepped down Don chaired Amy: This is an application to extend the existing building at 420 E. Main and is a non-historic office building in the commercial core historic district. This application will also follow under GMQS allotment approval and again they also need conceptual by September 15th. I have recommended approval. Kim Weil, architect: We are only dealing with the little building that the phone company used to use. Then the bank used it and the temporary tenant is Mr. Hines. We are expanding it to the north and to the east and proposing a third floor which is actually a second floor above grade for office and retail use. We would reface the existing building. I have also presented the affidavit of mailing. We wanted to step up a little to bring in the relationship to the court house and are under the height limit. We are around 30 feet. We got traditional with the window proportions. Don opened the public hearing. No comments from the public. Amy: What color are the metal store fronts going to be? Kim: We have not determined that but it will be in the color palate associated with the core. We are looking at steel store fronts. Sunny Vann: The property is being condominiumized. The apartment building will be used for affordable housing. We will do cash in lieu for parking. Karen: What is the height of the parapet? Kim: 3 feet and have the ability to enlarge it if we have too for the sole purpose of hiding equipment. Donnelley Erdman closed the public hearing. MOTION: Roger made the motion that HPC grant conceptual approval for 420 E. Main Street as submitted and proposed; second by Linda. All in favor, motion carries. MOTION: Don made the motion to adjourn; second by Karen. Meeting adjourned at 9:00 p.m. Kathleen J. Strickland, Chief Deputy Clerk 13 -Â· .. Lowell Meyer I 1 A, 517 W. North Street Aspen, CO 81611 AUG -3.. August 2, 1994 Ms. Amy Amidon Director of Historic Preservation City of Aspen 130 S. Galena Aspen, CO 81611 RE: Galena Plaza - HPC Conceptual Approval Extension Dear Ms. Amidon: Please consider this letter a formal request for a six month extension of the HPC conceptual approval for Galena Plaza. This approval was originally granted on August 25, 1993, and will expire on August 24, 1994. A six month extension of this approval would expire on February 25,1995. Since receiving our conceptual approval and GMQS allocation, we have been concentrating on the rehabilitation of the existing apartment building. To date, we have refurbished the interiors, removed the asbestos, upgraded the electrical systems, brought the exterior rail up to code and painted the exterior of the building. We are now ready to focus on the commercial side of the project. We are requesting the six month extension in order to give us ample time to design and prepare our contract documents. We anticipate commencing construction next spring. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, 31.42Â»40 Lowell Meyer . DJ- 60 MEMORANDUM TO: Aspen Historic Preservation Committee FROM: Amy Amidon, Historic Preservation Officer RE: 420 E. Main Street- Extension of conceptual approval DATE: August 10, 1994 Under Section 7-601-3(c), an "application for a final development plan must be filed within one year of the date of approval of a conceptual development plan. Unless an extension is granted by the HPC, failure to file such an application shall render null and void the approval of a conceptual development plan previously granted by the HPC." At this time, the applicants for the proposed development at 420 E. Main Street request a six month extension of their conceptual approval. The project originally received conceptual approval on August 25, 1993 by a vote of 6-0. The applicants intend to begin construction in Spring 1995.
