Panel approves Prospect Street window replacements with condition on grille type
Summary
The commission approved replacement windows at Prospect Street provided the new windows use simulated divided lights (SDL) rather than grills between glass (GBG), to maintain consistency with recent approvals in the district.
The Groton Historic District Commission approved a certificate of appropriateness for replacement windows at Prospect Street with a condition: the new windows must use simulated divided lights (SDL) rather than grills set between panes.
Rob Woolley, presenting the application, said the two replacement windows were on the non-street side and "they're gonna look exactly the same" as the originals; he said the replacement would not change exterior trim and that the homeowner had already stained a like-for-like section. Commissioners discussed whether the grills between glass matched prior approvals and concluded that SDLs are the district standard for consistency.
The motion to approve carried after a second and roll-call vote; the commission recorded the approval with the SDL condition.
