Board approves rear addition at 29 5th Avenue after clearing partial‑demolition question
Architect Randy Kelly (S16) presented removal of a 1979 two‑story rear addition at 29 5th Avenue and a proposal for a single‑story rear addition, screen porch and patio. The board determined the 1979 addition was not historically significant and approved demolition under the applicable UDO and 6 NYCRR exemptions.

The board reviewed elevations and materials — standing seam metal roof for additions, Marvin Ultimate (aluminum‑clad wood) windows for new work and slate repair on the historic portions — and supported the design with routine administrative follow‑ups for precise heights and slate matching. The board said the addition should read as subservient and distinct from the historic primary structure.
