918-924 Mainstreet
Proposed Action .
Staff recommends approval of a Conditional Use Permit for the
renovation of 918-924 Mainstreet and 3 ,5 ,7 10th Avenue South .
This action will allow the applicant to renovate these buildings for
retail and residential uses .
The Commission unanimously approved the Conditional Use Permit to
renovate 918-924 Mainstreet and 3-5-7 10th Avenue South .
Overview.
918-924 Mainstreet and 3 ,5 ,7 10th Avenue South is currently owned by
the HRA . Most of this block was purchased by the HRA in 1984 for
redevelopment . Since the purchase of these buildings , the City has
been attempting to redevelop the entire block . However , attempts to
redevelop the whole bloek as one pro�ect have been unsuccessful so the
"-' City now is in the process of redeveloping each building individually .
918-924 is the second building on the block to be rehabilitated . Last
month Marcus Corporation was approved to redevelop 906-908 Mainstreet .
The HRA is selling the property under a redevelopment agreement . The
building is being renovated under the Downtown Hopkins Design
Guidelines which are enclosed .
Ed Stiele appeared before the Commision and reviewed his plans on the
renovation . He stated that brick would be added to 3-5-7 lOth Avenue
South . There was very little discussion on this item . The Commission
noted that they had approved other renovations in the downtown in the
past and that this project should be approved .
Issues to be Considered .
o Is this renovation consistent with the City' s
redevelopment plans?

DOWNTOWN HOPKINS DESIGN CULDELINES
FACADE STANDARDS: The recommended general design staadards for structures
and sites in dountoan Nopkins are as folloas:
1. Facade sta�dards apply to building fronts and exposed sides and
rear walls.
2. The distinguishing original qualities or character of a building
and its site� uhere still ia existence� should not be destroyed�
� removed or al[ered.
3. All building structures and sites should be recognized as products
of their own time and it is the intent of these standards to pre-
serve, as nearly as possible, the architectural features of such
time. However. changes vhich are evidence of the history and develop-
ment of a building� structure or site and its environment, shall be
preserved, uhen possible. if those changes have acquired a recognized
and respected significance of their o�+n.
4. It is not the intent of these standards to exclude modern design or
to inhibit creative initiative. In instances vhere fai[hful restora-
tion or replication is .not practical. historically or economically
justified� remodeling may be done in a contemporary manner� sym-
pathetic vith and complimentary to the general character of the Mall.
` Such renovations or alterations should not destroy significant historical,
architectural, or cultural material. Buildings should be considered as
total units from grade to cornice line and should be designed in a vay �
that the total facade is a harmonious unit.
5. Distinctive stylistic features of a building should be preserved when-
ever possible in a condition or appearance as near as possible to their
original appearance. Deteriorated architectural features should be
repaired and restored rather than replace� vhenever possible. In the
event replacement is necessary, the aev material should match the material
being replaced in composition� design, color. tex[ure and other visual
qualfties. Repair or replacement of missing architectural features
should be based on accurate �duplications of such features Where possible
and appropriate. HoWever, nea show vindoas, lighting. hardware, details�
ornament, doors, and other elemen[s may be designed in a vay sympathetic
and complementary With the spirit and character of the building.
6. Solid. permanen[ly enclosed or covered facades vill not be approved.
All upper level vindovs should be fully exposed. �indows should be replaced
or repaired as necessary and maintained in a condition to give an
"occup�ied" look. A minimum of 40z of the area of the Cround Floor shall
be comprised as doors and/or transparent material. Doors may be solid
or opaque, or a combination of both. Opaque or translucent vindoWs or
material shall not be considered transparent.
FUNCTIONAL STANDARDS: The general sunctional staadards for structures and sites
should be as follows:
� • 1- All structural and decorative elea�ents of building fronts and sides'exposed
to vieW should be made structurally sound. Deteriorated or missing portions
should be repaired or replaced in a Workmanlike manner. All facade elements
and elements exposed to viea should be aell �aaiatained� cleaned and painted
as required. "
DESICN CUIDELINES
��
' � PAGE TWO
2. All lighting and electrical elements including viring� conduits, �uaction
boxes and all elements of inechanical equipment including pipes� ducts, air
conditioning units� should where possible� be concealed from viev. All
non-functioning elements should be removed.
3. The surface cleaning of structures must be undertaken uith the least
damaging method possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods should
not be used as these methods can unalterably damage historic building
materials such as brick.
4. Roofs: Roofs and chimneys or other auxiliary structures on the roof should
be repaired and cleaned as required. My construction visible from the
- street should be finished so as to hat-monize With other visible building
ualls. Television and radio antennae should be located in an incon-

distinguish the sign from the building surface on which it is placed.
Except as stated, structural supports shall be considered part of the
sign.
' 2. Ceneral:
a. It is not the intent of these standards to create uniformity of signage
or to inhibit creative initiative.
b. Signs should be designed and placed so as to appear an integral part of
the building design. to be consistent vith the period of the building.
to respect neighboring properties and the district in general. Signs
shall be designed aith appropriateness relative to the services of� the
establishment served.
3. Recommended Signage:
a. Signs that are determined to be an original part of the existing building
facade should be retained and maintained. A sign vill be considered to be
an "original part". if it vas included as a component of the existing facade
design and .construc[ion.
b. Primary Signs: Each Ground Floor occupant in a building should have'no more
than one sign oriented to each public right-of-way on which the premises
have frontage. Thie (these) sign(s) should identify the predoaiinant use
