Preservation Standards AND Guidelines August 1, 2012 3.3 PORCHES, CANOPIES, PORTE-COCHERES & BALCONIES POLICY: Historic porches, canopies, porte-cocheres and balconies are important features and are often the dominant characteristic of a building. These features that are visible from the public right-of-way should not be altered. DESIGN JUSTIFICATION: Front porches and canopies connect a building to its context by orientating the primary entrance to the street. The various components of porches, canopies, porte-cocheres, and balconies, including steps, railings and columns, provide scale and detail to historic buildings. SUSTAINABILITY JUSTIFICATION: Porches, canopies, and porte-cocheres protect entrances, provide shade, and enhance a building‟s energy efficiency. MAINTENANCE: ACTIONS THAT DO NOT REQUIRE REVIEW 3.3.1: Maintaining porches, canopies, porte-cocheres and balconies, preserves and sustains their embodied energy and eliminates the need for replacement with new resources. 3.3.2: Preserve existing historic front porches, canopies, porte-cocheres, balconies, and their components because they are character-defining features of a building. 3.3.3: Ordinary maintenance and repair such as cleaning, painting, and making minor repairs through replacement in kind with like materials is encouraged and does not require review as long as less than 50% of an element or feature on any one side of the building is replaced. 3.3.4: Preserve historic components of porches including steps, ceiling, flooring, railings and columns. The recessed arcaded porch (229 NW 31st Street, left) and the gable front porch on this bungalow (709 NW 27th Street, right) are character-defining features and should be preserved.
