Overview: At the recent Fair Haven Historic Preservation Commission meeting, the commission approved a modification for a construction project on Normandy Avenue, which involved converting an attic window into a recessed balcony. The decision came amid discussions about architectural style and neighborhood consistency. The architect, representing homeowner Rhett Federo, argued that the alteration was a minor adjustment and necessary to comply with permit variance requirements. The balcony, designed to offer river views, sparked a debate among commission members over its compatibility with the house’s existing architecture. Ultimately, a suggestion to incorporate a smaller arch detail to blend with the residence’s gable was accepted, and the modification was unanimously approved.
