SUBJECT: Request for a certificate of appropriateness to approve a new exterior staircase to
the second floor.
FILE: CA-2714
STAFF REPORT
Staff recommends approval with the following condition:
1. All exposed wood be painted to match the trim of the house.
Michael Keener has improved the attic space of his home at 2205 North Street. Due to
the lack of space inside the house, he has created an exterior staircase to provide access to
the new living space. This new staircase is visible from North Street and 6th Street, and
therefore requires approval by the Historic Landmark Commission.
The house is listed in the 1990 SPARE Beaumont Survey. SPARE states that the house was
built c. 1925. The house is listed as a fine example of upper middle class housing built after
the second Spindletop boom.
Exhibits are attached.
