To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
However, alterations or construction on top of historic buildings (most Category I and II buildings) will not be permitted, especially on those that reinforce a row with a consistent roof line or roof type on a street/block. With all rooftop additions, direct and oblique views should be taken into consideration, especially when it is a vertical extension of the facade. How the building facade meets the sky as seen from the street, neighboring buildings, and open space should be examined. When c...reating a vertical extension to an existing facade, up to the 80' height limit, it is important to consider the: o Composition of the base, middle, and top of a building; the new addition should not strip existing parapet and cornice detailing, but instead incorporate this into the new design. o Existing visual rhythms and proportional systems which should be incorporated into the addition. o Appropriate solid/void ratios which should be used to complement the existing building. In the case of a vertical extension to the facade, the height of the addition should depend on the average height of the cornice lines within the block and the proportions of the existing building.
