The adopted design guidelines provide on pg. 29, # 13, that new outbuildings may resemble servants' quarters or carriage houses, work buildings or simple one story garages that have been historically constructed in Edgewood-Park City.
Construct new workshed in rear yard, not visible from Jefferson. Building to be 10 x 10 with stone foundation, sided in barn wood (vertically laid 1" x 4" boards of hickory or maple) with 6/12 pitch roof covered with v-groove tin, salvaged windows and planked, paired entry doors.
One story frame with weatherboard siding. Hip roof with lower cross gables, asphalt shingle covering, boxed cornice on front gable. One story one-half front porch with square wood pilasters and square wood columns, sawn wood balustrade. Double hung one over one windows. Interior offset brick chimneys. Brick foundation. Rectangular plan.
The proposed outbuilding has a gable roof of metal, vertically oriented wood siding, and a stone foundation, all appropriate for the age and historic character of the district. It is also located to the rear of the lot, and will not be visible from Jefferson Avenue.
