Summary

The commission granted a certificate of appropriateness for a rear addition that connects an existing garage to the residence at 4919 Morse Avenue; owner Kate Gorski said the work will be largely invisible from the street.

The Appearance Commission approved a certificate of appropriateness for a rear addition at 4919 Morse Avenue, a project presented by property owner Kate Gorski that connects a stand-alone garage to the house and adds a mudroom and family room.

Gorski told the panel the design is intended to be unobtrusive: "Nothing that we're doing is visible from the street," she said, noting the roof changes and materials will be coordinated to match the existing house. Commissioners expressed general support and moved to approve the application as presented; the motion passed by roll call.

The approval covers exterior aesthetic changes only; building permits and inspections remain required.
