TO: Historic Landmark Commission
FROM: Demi Laney, Planner I
SUBJECT: A request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to replace, reduce and enclose
windows to a house.
FILE: CA -3098
STAFF REPORT
Iden Broussard, property owner, replaced and reduced four windows and enclosed two windows
to his house located at 2220 Pecos Street without the benefit of a CA. Mr. Broussard requests to
keep those changes, per your approval. The front window has been reduced in size and now
contains a six over six profile. Along the left side of the house, two windows have been enclosed
and three have been reduced in size with a six over six profile. The shutters have also been
removed from the house. The original front window was a two over two profile and larger in
size. The windows along the left side of the house varied in size. Please refer to the picture in
your packet for the original appearance of the house.
This house is categorized as a National Folk house. The original larger front window and
windows along the left side of the house appear to be more appropriate for National Folk house
in accordance with photos demonstrated in A Field Guide to American Houses (McAlester et al.,
pg. 93). The examples listed in the book all display the front windows to be of larger size, but do
reveal that shutters are not typical of this style home.
Staff recommends denial for all window enclosures and reductions. Staff does recommend
approval to allow the removal of shutters conditional to painting the exposed siding to match the
rest of the house and installation of trim to match original.
The house is not listed in the SPARE survey.
Exhibits are attached.
