HPC12-07, 963 Canton St., Ceviche/Mikka Orrick
Body
Item Summary:
Applicant is requesting a Ceritificate of Appropriateness for an after-the-fact approval of roof structures on rear addition.
Staff Report:
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the two small shed roof overhangs.
Staff recommends denial of the outdoor curtains on the top, north, east, and south sides of the rear roof deck.
Issue
The applicant's proposal is for two types of roof structures on the rear addition. The first includes two small shed roof overhangs against the west wall. They are made out of silver corrugated metal and overhang approximately 30". The southernmost overhang measures 26" long and the northernmost overhang measures 9' long. These overhangs were installed to protect audio and television equipment.
The second roof structure is constructed out of cable wire and curtains, of varying sizes and colors, which surround the top, north, east, and south sides of the rear roof deck. The curtains are made of outdoor fabric and were installed to provide shade for patrons dining outside.
The applicant installed these roof structures without HPC approval and is coming before the HPC for an after-the-fact Certificate of Appropriateness.
History
The structure located at 963 Canton Street was constructed in 1930 according to the Fulton County Tax Digest. The 2001 Historic Properties Survey classified the property as "Historic" with an estimated date of construction from 1940-1949.
The structure is an example of a one story commercial building constructed in the 1930's. The building has large plate glass display windows with a simple entrance and shed roof awning.
In 2010, the HPC approved a rear addition that provided an additional 340 square feet of interior space and a rooftop deck for outdoor dining (HP10-35). At the time of approval, the only structure that accompanied the roof deck was a metal fence enclosure.
