AHRB approves garage addition at 72 North Mountain Drive with conditions
Summary
The board granted architectural/historic approval for a garage addition and related exterior work at 72 North Mountain Drive, subject to the plan set dated 06/16/2026 and listed conditions; building and engineering staff reported no outstanding objections.
The Dobbs Ferry AHRB voted to approve architectural and historic review for an addition over the existing garage at 72 North Mountain Drive, subject to conditions and the referenced plan set dated 06/16/2026.
Architect Chris Boyer of Michael Lewis Architects presented the application, which calls for a one‑story garage addition with a guest suite above, kitchen reconfiguration and several window and door replacements. He described materials to match existing siding and roofing and said proposed window frames would be a dark bronze color to match existing openings.
Board members raised design questions about window styles and roof pitch; one member called the proposed approach “a little jarring” but others noted extensive screening and limited public visibility. The building department reported no structural objections and engineering staff indicated no outstanding technical issues.
The board adopted a resolution granting approval subject to the conditions listed in the motion and the plan set dated 06/16/2026. The architect thanked the board and said the team would proceed with the next steps.
