Historic commission approves siding replacement at 1530 Bridal Road with staff conditions
Summary
The commission approved a certificate of appropriateness for 1530 Bridal Road to replace damaged siding with smooth cementitious siding (3–4 inch reveal target) and to replace/repair windows, conditioned on staff approval of final product selection, trim dimensions and window details.
The Columbus Historic Resources Commission voted Nov. 20 to approve a certificate of appropriateness for siding and associated window work at 1530 Bridal Road, subject to specific conditions for product reveal, trim detailing and staff review of shop drawings.
Staff recommended replacement siding that closely matches the home’s original narrow reveal (3–4 inches exposure) and asked the applicant to document head, jamb and sill trim dimensions so staff can confirm a like‑for‑like visual outcome. The applicant (owner Henry Harned) said interior water damage and a family timing concern motivated urgency; the contractor indicated some manufacturers can deliver a smaller reveal but supply quantities may require staggered installation.
The commission endorsed staff guidance and moved to approve COA 25012191530 with the condition that the applicant work with staff to confirm the siding reveal, window dimensions and trim profiles; staff was delegated authority to administratively approve the final product so long as it matches the documented details discussed at the hearing.
The approval allows the owner to move forward contingent on staff verification of the specified trim and siding reveal; no changes to signature leaded‑glass windows were approved.
