Historic Review for Brewery Square (Economy Advertising Company & Union Brewery)
District: NA
dassification: Local Landmark
The applicant, Iowa Oty Press Otizen, is requesting approval for a proposed alteration project at Brewery
Square (123 N Linn Street), two Iowa Oty Local Landmarks. The project consists of the installation of three
signs on the building.

Staff' Comments
Brewery Square is comprised of two local historic landmarks, the Economy Advertising Company building at
119-123 N Linn St and the Union Brewery at 127 - 131 N Linn Street and 221 - 227 E Market Street. The
Economy Advertising Company building is a simple architectural design sometimes referred to as a
"Commercial Brick" or "Modem-Broad Front" style. The Union Brewery is a two story Italianate
commercial building, with a comer entrance.
The applicant is proposing to install three signs on the second floor of the building. Sign # 1 is located on the
southern portion of the east f~ade, between the bottom of the second story windows and the first story
awning. This sign is proposed to be cut out metal letters that spell out "Iowa Oty Press Otizen". The letters
will be backlit at night. Signs # 2 & # 3 are located on the northeast comer of the building, one on the north
fa<;:ade and one on the east f~ade. These signs are proposed to be rectangular wooden signs with the PC
Media logo. The signs will be externally lit from above by a goose neck light.
The Iowa Oty Historic Preservation Guidelines do not address signage and commercial buildings. When this
is the case, the Commission must consult the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation. In
general, the standards say that alterations should be compatible with the historic architecture of the building
and should use historic materials.
In Staff's opinion, sign # 1 (southern portion of east f~ade) is of a scale, location, and material that is
appropriate for the building. However, Staff believes that there is something amiss about signs # 2 & # 3.
While the material and scale seem appropriate, these signs do not appear to be compatible with the historic
character of the building. Staff did a mockup of a few alternative options for these signs. The first simply
changes the background color from white to cream. The second eliminates the light fixture. In staff's
opinion, these changes allow the signs to blend with the historic character of the building.
/recommended NotIon
Move to approve a Certificate of Appropriateness for the project at 123 N Linn Street as presented in the
application with the following conditions:
· The background color of the wooden signs being a cream color, similar to the background color on
the La James signage on the first level of the building
· The lighting for the light being incorporated into the soffits of the building, rather than a gooseneck
light fixture

Historic Review for 904 Bowery Street
District: Governor Lucas Street Conservation District
dassification: Contributing
The applicant, UniverOty Neighborhood Partnership, is requesting approval for a proposed alteration project
at 904 Bowery Street, a contributing property in the Governor Lucas Street Conservation District. The
project consists of alterations to the garage door, replacement of the side/front door, and shortening of a
window in the kitchen.
March 10,2011
Applicable Regulations and Guidelines:

4.3 Doors

Stq!7Comments
This house is highly concealed from street view by trees. It is of a simple vernacular design. The main
entrance faces to the east, not onto the street.
The applicant is proposing three projects that affect the exterior of the property. The first is the removal of
the basement garage door. There is not a fire separation between the garage area and the rest of the house,
thus using this space as a garage would be dangerous to the inhabitants of the house. The applicant would
like to keep a pedestrian door entrance to the basement in this location and has presented two alternatives.
The guidelines recommend that the size, shape, and location of foundation openings be retained. In Staff's
opinion the foundation garage opening is a defining architectural feature of this home and marks a point in
history. Staff feels that the appearance of a garage opening should be maintained and that both options
provided by the applicant would be appropriate.
The other projects include replacement of the side/ front door and removal of a window and replacing with a
shorter window in order to facilitate a kitchen remodel. The applicant has not decided on a specific door but
is looking at a simply designed door with a half light.
The guidelines allow for the replacement of windows and doors, but in general recommends for new
windows and doors to retain the size of the existing windows unless required for egress. However, the
Commission has approved window alterations when necessary to improve functionality. In order to improve
the appearance and desirability of this house, a kitchen remodel is proposed, thus the applicant is proposing a
shorter window to allow for a counter to be installed.
In Staff's opinion, the changes to the windows and doors are compatible with the historic nature of this
house, provided the doors and windows are replaced with ones that match the nature of the house. Given
that the changes window and side/ front door are not on the street facing elevation, the impact to the historic
integrity will be minimal.
/recommended NotIon
Move to approve a Certificate of Appropriateness for the project at 904 Bowery Street as presented in the
application with the following conditions:
· The applicant having the option to use either alternative for the foundation opening;
· The final door specifications to be approved by Staff; and
· The new window retaining the appearance of the historic windows and being either solid wood or
metal clad solid wood.

CITY OF IOWA CITY
MEMORANDUM
Date:
March 2, 2011
To:
Christina Kuecker, Associate Planner
From:
David Powers, Housing Rehabilitation Specialist
904 Bowery
Re:
The home at 904 Bowery has been purchased through the City's UniverCity Neighborhood
Partnership for rehab and resale as affordable owner occupied housing.
This home will have foundation stabilization and grading work done with some service walks
being redone, HVAC improvements, kitchen, and plaster repairs made as well as refinishing of
all the hardwood floors in the home.
On the exterior the soffits and fascia will be repaired, scraped, and repainted. All repairs will
match the existing trim and crown details. The overhead door that opens onto Governor St
needs to be addressed and there are two proposals for this opening. Currently the door opens
into part of the basement without any fire separation between this space and the rest of the
home. It cannot legally be used as a garage and it makes the basement very cold and prone to
intrusion by mice and other animals.
We will replace both the front and back doors with relatively simply designed ~ and % lite
paneled doors.
While working with the kitchen designer drawing the new layout for the cabinets and appliances
in the small kitchen, we found that the best design for working with our limited space required us
to change the size of one window on the north side wall of the home to allow for cabinets and
countertops beneath it. The window would be reduced in height approximately six inches. The
new window will match the existing window in appearance.
All materials would be subject to your review and approval and we request the Historic
Preservation Commission's approval for our plan.

HISTORIC PRESER V A nON COMMISSION
FEBRUARY 10,2011
EMMA J. HARV AT HALL
PRELIMINARY
MEMBERS PRESENT: Kent Ackerson, Esther Baker, Thomas Baldridge, Andrew Litton, David McMahon,
Alicia Trimble, Frank Wagner
MEMBERS ABSENT: William Downing, Pam Michaud, Ginalie Swaim, Dana Thomann
ST AFF PRESENT: Christina Kuecker
OTHERS PRESENT: Jewell Amos, Tracy Barkalow, Richard Carlson, Kevin Shannon
RECOMMEND A nONS TO COUNCIL: (become effective only after separate Council action)
None.
CALL TO ORDER:
Chairperson Trimble called the meeting to order at 6:00 p.m.
PUBLIC DISCUSSION OF ANYTHING NOT ON THE AGENDA;
Carlson said that he works in the south of Burlington Street area that has now been designated Riverfront Crossings.
He said he has not heard anything about a historic survey of this area, although it has been a year or two since
people have been pushing redevelopment of the area. Carlson said he would like to know what the status is of
evaluating the historic fabric of what is remaining in that neighborhood.
Kuecker said the Commission has applied twice for grants to survey that area but has not received those grants. She
said that nothing has really been done since then. Kuecker said that as she has time, she selects buildings in that area
and researches them so that the effort is kind of piecemeal at this time.
Carlson stated that piecemeal would have worked a few years ago, but as there is a current push for redevelopment,
he would really like to see something more than that. He said that he is on the State Nomination Review Committee
that reviews the CLG grant applications, so he knows why the 2006 and 2007 applications were not funded. Carlson
said that in 2007 he offered to write the application so that it would be more conducive to the nomination board for
approval but was not taken up on his offer.
Carlson said that he would really like to see something done here. He said that he would still like to help out in any
way he can in writing an application for a CLG or HRDP grant.
Baldridge said that as the City is starting to focus on that area, it would be appropriate for the Commission to at least
try to identify buildings that should remain. Wagner said that he has wondered about the School District
Administration Building and what will happen to that building.
Helen Burford said that about at least one if not two preliminary studies of this location have been done. Kuecker
said the Commission has not decided to apply for grants for any other areas, so this might be a year to try again for
that area.
CONSENT AGENDA:
CERTIFICATES OF APPROPRIATENESS:
Kuecker said that both of the projects meet the qualifications as stated in the handbook, and staff recommends
approval.
Historic Preservation Commission

710 Clark Street. Kuecker said this is a demolition of a garage on the rear of the property and the rebuilding of a
new garage. She said the new garage meets all the Historic Preservation Handbook requirements for a new garage in
a conservation district.
735 Dearborn Street. Kuecker stated that this project involves the removal of two windows and a door and
installation of a sliding glass door in the location of the windows, with siding over the door opening. She said this is
on the rear of a property in a conservation district. Kuecker said staff recommends approval provided the new door
is trimmed to match the existing windows and door trim on the house and that the siding matches the existing siding.
MOTION: Baker moved to approve the consent agenda for 710 Clark Street and 735 Dearborn Street as
recommended, with the stipulation for 735 Dearborn Street that the new door is trimmed to match the
existing windows and door trim on the house and that the siding matches the existing siding. McMahon
seconded the motion. The motion carried on a vote of 7-0 (Downilll!. Michaud. Swaim. and Thomann absent).
Kuecker gave the owners of 710 Clark Street and 735 Dearborn Street, instructions for proceeding with the project,
including the requirements for both a demolition permit and a building permit.
CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS:
837 Maggard Street.
Kuecker said this application is to make an amendment to the previously approved certificate of appropriateness for
this property. She stated that in May, the Commission approved the removal of the existing siding on the house and
the installation of a three- to five-inch reveal, smooth-faced fiber cement board lap siding with a minimum four-inch
trim around all windows and doors.
Kuecker said the applicant began this siding replacement project with a six-inch reveal, textured fiber cement board,
and lap siding with three and one-half inch trim around the door and would now like to amend the previously
approved certificate to allow for the material used. She said that the requirements that the Commission gave for the
siding are common when looking at siding replacement, because a three- to five-inch reveal, smooth-faced, is most
historically accurate and closest to the historic wood siding that would have been used. Kuecker said the reason for
the smooth face requirement is because the textured fiber cement board often gives a faux wood appearance. She
added that historic trim was often a minimum of four inches.
Kuecker said that, in staffs opinion, the requirements of the original certificate of appropriateness were not
incongruent with previous approvals by the Commission and are supported by the Siding section of the Handbook.
She said that without documentation that the original siding on the house was anything different than that, she did
not see a reason to change that previous approval.
Barkalow, the owner of the property, distributed some photographs showing that the siding that is on there is much
narrower than the existing siding that was there when he bought the property. He said he bought the stock hardi-
board siding but did not realize that there is a difference between smooth versus textured siding.
Barkalow said that the existing asbestos siding is not smooth in texture either, and it is also a lot wider than what he
has put on there. He said the intent is to pretty this property up, and it would be very expensive now to tear the
siding off another time and put back on something else. Barkalow said he would like to have the certificate amended
to get this done. He said he intends to side the rest of the house to match. Barkalow said he needs to get this section
complete to satisfy a rental permit, and that is why he is asking for an amendment. He said he thinks this looks a lot
better and that the hardi-board will blend in quite nicely in the neighborhood here.
Wagner referred to the photographs and asked if this is the only part that has been done so far. Barkalow confirmed
this. He said that this was an error on his part, in that he did not fax the information over to the contractor's desk at
the Menard's dealer. Barkalow said that to replace this, he would have to get all new material and start over. He said
that he did not think one could tell the difference from the street between the smooth or textured or the half inch
difference around the trim.

February 10, 2011

Baker said that, as in previous cases like this one, her concem is always the precedent that would be set. She said
that every time the Commission lets something like this get by, the next person does whatever he wants to, because
he thinks he can go to the Commission afterwards and ask for an amendment of the original agreement. Baker said it
weakens what the Commission is trying to do.
Kuecker added that when work has been done, the Commission is supposed to evaluate the application as if the
work had not happened and this was a fresh application. She said the Commission should look at this application
and ask if they would approve installation of a six-inch reveal, textured fiber cement board with three and one-half
inch trim at all for this property. Kuecker said that they Commission should contemplate if the handbook would
allow the approval of this. Wagner said that he felt that the answer was no. Wagner said that Menard's does not sell
Hardi-board, which is a brand name, but they do sell a smooth, fiber cement board of the proper dimensions.
MOTION: McMahon moved to approve an application for a certificate of appropriateness for 837 Maggard
Street to amend the previous certificate to allow for the installation of a three- to five-inch reveal, smooth-
faced fiber cement board lap siding with a minimum four-inch trim around all windows and doors. Ackerson
seconded the motion. The motion failed on a vote of 0-7 (Downin2. Michaud. Swaim. and Thomann absent).
CONSIDERATION OF MINUTES FOR JANUARY 13,2011.
MOTION: McMahon moved to approve the minutes of the Historic Preservation Commission's January 13, 2011
meeting, as written. Wagner seconded the motion. The motion carried on a vote of 7-0 (Downing, Michaud, Swaim,
and Thomann absent).
OTHER:
Kuecker said that the property at 904 Bowery was recently purchased by the University Neighborhood Partnership.
She said there is a garage door that enters off of Governor Street, and this cannot function as a garage, because it
goes right into the basement.
Kuecker said the question is what to do with this. She said that right now the door is rotted on the bottom so that
critters and water get in. Kuecker said the owners would like to make it weather tight and actually don't want to
have this be a garage because of the problems it would cause for the living space. She said they would like to keep
this as a pedestrian door. Kuecker said that completely removing the door is probably not an option, because it is an
architectural feature that would be in character with the house. She added that this is a conservation district.
Kuecker said the Partnership is asking for the opinion of the Commission. She said the owners don't want to allow
cars to pull in there, because any exhaust would go into the living space, nor do they intend to finish the basement.
Kuecker said the door has to be replaced, however.
Ackerson asked if they want it to look like the present door. Kuecker said she feels that would be the most
appropriate, so that one can still see that that was at one time a garage door.
Wagner said one possibility would be to build a wall- fill it in as a wall with insulation, but the exterior would still
look like a garage door. He said it could have a pedestrian door that blends in. Baker suggested that one idea would
be to take a look at some of the old Moffitt houses to see what kind of solutions or approaches have been taken
there.
Baldridge asked if the Commission needed to take a position on whether or not the owners can build a wall that
would be appropriate. Kuecker said that the Partnership is looking for is ideas from the Commission that would be
something the Commission could approve. She said the Partnership would then investigate the ideas to come up
with the best solution. Baldridge asked if the Commission could then give approval for a significant wall to be put
up, with an outside fayade to make it look like a garage door.
Kuecker said the University Neighborhood Partnership has several other things with this house that need to come
before the Commission and is just looking for ideas now. Baldridge asked if, in terms of the conservation district
Historic Preservation Commission
February 10,2011

guidelines, there is any reason the Commission would be prevented from approving a permanent wall to be built.
Kuecker confirmed that there is not.
The consensus of the Commission was to suggest a wall here.
The Commission discussed the potential for the property at the southwest comer of Linn and Fairchild Streets and
the former Shelter House on Gilbert Street, as well as the property behind the former Shelter House.
