Preliminary planning was halted at the time administrative delay was established for preparation of the Growth Management Plan. Recently City Council decided to permit projects to proceed through various procedures including HPC review. This project has been reviewed by P&Z for approval to encorach slightly into the view plane. The proposal is for the addition of a second floor to the Aspen Grove Building and the redesign of the ground floor facade. The applicants have met with the Planning Office for interpretation of the design review guidelines and to present preliminary drawings for comment and subsequent revisions. Planning Office comments on the proposal are as follows: 1. The front facade that is closest to the street conforms with the design guidelines from the stand point of materials, scale (massing) and the vertical orientation of second floor windows. Two of the windows on the West front facade open into the exterior staircase while the other two windows serve the second floor interior. As such, the two windows above the staircase tend to make a false architectural statement, and if they are glazed they will be difficult to clean once they become dirty. 2. The first setback on the East side of the building' s front facade is "L" shaped with three windows on the second floor that do not visually relate well with the fenestrations on the ground level. Particularly, questionable is the decision to locate the corner of the upper level directly above and centered on the door opening below. One solution to solve this problem as well as the first comment would be to set back the second floor facades from the ground level facades. This would also preserve the existing spacial experience along this block of Cooper Street that has major historic .. Page 2 Continued structures anchoring each end of the block and seperated by a one-story quieter architectural statement. The applicants, however, may be able to develop other solutions to this situation. 3. The colored pencil drawings indicate the general color scheme of the complex, but it is recommended that samples of the brick, metal trim and paint swatches be submitted for review before final approval. 4. The overall appearance of the building makes a complete visual statement given the restrictions of the view plane and objective of preserving the garden. It is recommended that any future expansion be restricted from public view and located beneath the existing structure. Final approval should restrict future enclosure of the balcony in glass or other material. 5. Any future canvas or other type awnings that may be installed on the second level balcony shall be subject to review by the HPC and, if penetrating the view plane, by the P & Z. 6. Final plans submitted to HPC should indicate the location and technique for signage. The intent of this criteria is to prevent the clutter of signs that can often occur on buildings that house numerous establishments. 7. The parapet that is set back from the facades of the building do not contribute to the visual quality or functional aspects of the building. It is recommended that it be removed in order to further reduce the massing appearance of the structure. In conclusion, the Planning Office recommends proceeding on to the public hearing and final review by the HPC. .. 1 WleneRSTUBE j** 12(SIAURAnt 3* aspen ~,~~~7 Birkwood Associates Box 3421 Aspen, Co., 81611 May 7, 1976 The plan for the remodelling of the property at 519 East Cooper Street in Aspen has been studied in great detail by us. . We find the projected building to be in very good proportion and most suitable to the needs of our business and the com- fort and convenience of our customers. The proposal to keep the garden, and to conserve the beautiful trees so that the open space and charm of the courtyard will be enhanced , is greatly appreciated, since we have spent a great deal of our own time and money and talent in making this area one of the pleasant places in Aspen. We are also pleased with the idea of complementing the old look of the Independence building which is one of the more prestigious buildings in Aspen and deserves to be respected. In other words, we are entirely in agreement with your pro- posal, and believe that it will be a fine addition to the Aspen scene, and to the enhancement of mijoyment of both our guests and our fellow Aspenites.

We are also pleased that the majority - Â·Â·---LKG~6~M of the increased space will be occupied by existing, prominent bussinesses.

Not only will it's facade become consistent with the other buildings around it, creating the only totally Victorian block in Aspen, I feel the garden will also be improved, as well as being more visible.
