Re: 624 Rock Street
Dear Mike:
Enclosed herewith please find the following:
1. An application for Certificate of Appropriateness,
filled out as you requested;
2. Copies of notices signed by Sommers Matthews, on
behalf of Catherine Matthews, and the pastor of the First
Luthern Church acknowledging receipt of the notices; as you are
aware, I am the other property owner, and Tom Johnson, the
other property owner, will be with me at the hearing; and
3. My certification that notice has been given to all
property owners.
In addition, also enclosed are a description of the work to
be done and photographs of the subject property.
I am thus assuming that I have met all requirements for the
projected hearing on January 13, 1983, at 4 p.m., and the
hearing will proceed as scheduled.
As always, your assistance is deeply appreciated and let me
know other information you may need.
Sincerely yours,
4��

Enclosures
Applicant desires to repair and restore the front porch at
624 Rock Street to a safe and sound condition. The materials
used will be similar to existing materials and will include
wood columns, wood joists, and a wood framework around the top
part of the porch. A substantive change will occur, however,
in that the concrete slab forming the roof of the porch will be
replaced by wood, which will in turn be either waterproofed or
covered with rooting or similar material necessary for water-
proofing. This new material should not be visible from street
level.
Applicant further expects to correct existing settling of
the south side of the porch by removing part of the brickwork
enclosing the crawl space under the porch and, by use of shims,
joists, cribbing or similar work, correcting the existing slope
of the porch and eliminating further settling. This work, as
stated above, will require the removal of brickwork, including
that enclosing part of the current crawl space. This brickwork
will be replaced with other brick similar in form and substance
to blend in with the existing tacaae.
Applicant further contemplates that the second story sur-
face of the porch will be available for sunbathing and similar
activities by the occupants of 624 Rock Street.
