Webster Groves board approves renovation at 117 E. Cedar Ave.
Summary
The Webster Groves Architectural Review Board approved interior renovations and dormers at 117 East Cedar Avenue after a public hearing; the board said revisions addressed earlier requests and the original front window and existing chimney will remain.
The Webster Groves Architectural Review Board approved interior renovations and dormers at 117 East Cedar Avenue during its June 19 meeting after a public hearing and no substantive objections from board members.
The action matters because the board confirmed that previously requested design changes — notably preservation of the original front window and retention of the existing chimney — were included in the resubmittal, preserving the primary façade elements the board had emphasized in earlier review.
Board members said the revisions had addressed prior concerns. Bob Buckman, Architectural Review Board member, said the board "really had no comments" after reviewing the revisions and thanked the applicant for the changes. An on‑line participant identified only as Axton joined the public hearing; no other public comments were recorded.
The board took a formal vote and approved the project as submitted. City staff indicated there were no outstanding conditions tied to the board's approval for this submission.
The approval clears the applicant to proceed with the project subject to standard city permitting steps; no other follow-up items or special reporting requirements were noted on the record.
The Architectural Review Board continued its meeting with additional project reviews and scheduled its next session for July 3.
