PROJECT NARRATIVE - "
The enclosed drawings summarize the extent of the
proposed renovation to this home on Main Gore Drive in
East Vail""
This historic home is a well-preserved example of classic,
european-inspired ski town architecture and one of the
few remaining modest original East Vail homes.""
The upper photo on the left shows the NE corner of the
building as viewed from the driveway just off Main Gore
Drive. Snow sheds directly onto the north deck and over
the entry. The lower photograph shows the home from
the Southeast. ""
The idea of this renovation is to, as modestly as possible,
increase the usability and safety of the home without
fundamentally altering its character. The owner wishes to
add a covered exterior porch at the entry, as snow sheds
directly onto the deck and front door. Additionally, the
deck rails are in need of replacement, and they desire to
add a stairway at the SW corner of the existing deck."
