46 Housatonic Street is another example, I think. Both new buildings went through HDC review, approval and ZBA approval and fit in nicely with the existing fabric and massing of the village today.  They each have some details that mimic actual historic buildings nearby.

Hi Chris,

50 Church Street in Lenox is a nice example. While the actual historic building was demolished, the new building fits in very well.

Subject: [MassHistPres] Infill and Additions in Local Historic Districts


I am looking for some recent examples of new construction or additions in a local historic district. These could be examples that met the local historic design guidelines and were approved or ones where there were some challenging aspects to the design review process, resulting in a denial or modification of the design.

Overall, just looking for some new construction or addition examples that are good for discussing the design review process with a local commission.
