Board approves as-built roof deck at 1618 Shoreline Drive after design revisions
Loading...
Summary
The board approved project design and final approval for an as-built third-story roof deck at 1618 Shoreline Drive after the applicant revised railings and added pilasters to better match the house’s Spanish-Mediterranean character.
The Single-Family Design Board approved project design and final approval for an as-built third-story roof deck at 1618 Shoreline Drive following design revisions that introduced wrought-iron railings and stucco pilasters to better integrate the deck with the house.
Designer Brian Zant described the revised approach: curved wrought-iron railing with half-inch round posts and minimal top rail, plus stucco pilasters that provide architectural endpoints and help integrate two deck levels on the property. The applicant said the roof decks are intended for casual use and not large parties. Board members discussed pilaster placement and constructability details; several members said they supported the revised design while noting minor constructability adjustments (pilaster head detail) to be clarified in the drawings.
The board voted to approve project design and final approval with the condition that the rails meet the flat part of the pilaster below any curved nosing to provide a reveal. Staff announced the 10-calendar-day appeal period and instructed the applicant on next steps for building and safety submittal.
