421 Gibbs Ave garage reconstruction with primary suite
Description
A hidden, quirky house gets a primary suite above its garage, with the roofline raised about 5.5-6 feet; the applicant dropped the front-entry redesign and agreed to multiple material conditions.
Impact summary
One commissioner pressed on the addition's massing, but the revisions carried the vote; the house is largely invisible from public ways.
