ARC grants certificate of appropriateness for new house at 2910 N. Central in Tampa Heights with conditions
Summary
The commission granted a Certificate of Appropriateness for a proposed new single‑family residence at 2910 N. Central Avenue in the Tampa Heights Historic District, subject to conditions clarifying gutter material, mechanical screening, trash storage and door hardware.
Architect Salvador Rodriguez presented plans for a new single‑family house at 2910 North Central Avenue in the Tampa Heights Historic District (ARC25‑0000555). He described a bungalow‑style design with a 20‑foot front setback, brick‑veneer piers, hardy board siding, a shingle roof, a 26‑inch elevated front porch, and a two‑car carport sited to preserve a street tree where feasible.
Staff (Elaine Lund) found the submission consistent with the Tampa Heights design guidelines provided specific conditions were met. Commissioners questioned mechanical screening, fascia/soffit details, trash can placement and the muntin arrangement for windows; Rodriguez responded that mechanical units would be screened, gutters would be half‑round metal and hardy siding is acceptable for new construction in the district.
The ARC voted to grant a Certificate of Appropriateness with conditions requiring clarified gutter material, mechanical screening and a specified trash‑can location and door hardware. The applicant acknowledged the conditions and staff will verify final details before issuing final approvals.
