PS -06 -023 Applicant: City of South Miami Location: 6925 SW 63rd Court AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA, RELATING TO A REQUEST TO AMEND THE OFFICIAL ZONING MAP OF THE CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE BY DESIGNATING A SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL BUELDING LOCATED AT 6925 SW 63rd COURT AS AN HISTORIC SITE AND BY PLACEMENT OF AN HISTORIC PRESERVATION OVERLAY ZONE (HP-OV) OVER THE EXISTING ZONING USE DISTRICT FOR THIS PROPERTY; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. SUMMARY The Historic Preservation Board at its July 31, 2006 meeting reviewed an historic designation report for the a single family residence located at 6925 SW .63 Court. Following a public hearing, the Board adopted a motion recommending that this building be designated an historic site. The Land Development Code provides that an historic designation recommendation must be enacted as a zone map change. The "HP -OV" Historic Preservation Overlay zoning district is super - imposed as an overlay over the existing underlying use zone. The procedures in the LDC requires the Planning Board to hold a public hearing on all designations recommended by the Historic Preservation Board. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS The current LDC provides the following regulations on the historic designation process (Section 20- 5.17(E)): "(E) Planning Board Review, (1) Following a favorable recornniendation by the Historic Preservation Board, a proposed designation shall be implemented by the adoption of an "HP --OV" Historic Preservation Overlay zone for the property setforth in the historic designation report. LDC HP -OV Rezoning September 14, 2006 (2) (2) The Planning Board shall determine if the designation is compatible with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan, and if the proposed historic site and/or district regulations would change any existing zoning district regulations such as, for example, permitted use, height, floor area ratio, yard setbacks or off-street parking.

" 6925 SW 63 Court The historic designation of the home located at 6925 SW 63 Court was requested by the property owner. The single family home was built in 1926 and is a classic example of the small -scale Mediterranean Revival style cottages that were enormously popular during the Real Estate Boom phenomenon of the 1920s. The home features many of the hallmarks of the style including its masonry construction; variation in the height and pitch of the roof slopes, the creation of an exterior walled courtyard, the use of a clay barrel file for the roofing material, the use of a round arch as a recurring architectural element; and the employment of a loggia as a method to allow covered access to the outside. The historic name of the residence is based upon the name of the earliest recorded property owner who was Jesse Elon Whitsit. The designation of an historic site requires that the Historic Preservation Board approve a Designation Report which sets forth the history of the building and the architectural significance. Attached to this staff report is the Desi ation Re ort which was approved by the Board at its July 31, 2006 meeting by a vote of 4 ayes d nays. The report contains a detailed history of the building and includes photographs. The attached designation report describes the significance of the properties (pp.5, 6,7). STAFF OBSERVATIONS (1) The designation report and the procedures followed by the Historic Preservation Board are in accordance with the current LDC regulations governing historic site /district designations. (2) The designation of historic sites is compatible with several Future Land Use Element goals and objectives contained in the Comprehensive Plan: Objective 1.2 Preserve historic resources„ by_ experiencing no demolition or reconfiguration of specified resources ........... (3) The alteration, renovation, remodeling, or landscape change affecting the exterior of a designated historic building will require. special approval in the form of a "certificate of appropriateness" (COA). This approval requires a review by the Historic Preservation. Board and final approval by the City Commission. The Designation Report contains a section entitled Design Review Guidelines (pp.8 -9) which establishes architectural guidelines forth(,- review of future certificates of appropriateness. (4) The proposed designation will not require charges to any of the dimensional standards or permitted uses currently .applicable to the area's RS -3, Single Family Low Density Resideniial zoning district. LDC HP -OV Rezoning September 14, 2006 (3) RECONIMENDATION. It is recommended that the historic designation and the placement of an "HP -OV" district over the existing zoning district for the building at 6925 SW 63rd Court be approved.

This home features many of the hallmarks of the style including its masonry construction; variation in the height and pitch of the roof slopes, the creation of an exterior walled courtyard, the use of a clay barrel the for the roofing material, the use of a round arch as a recurring architectural element; and the employment of a loggia as a method to allow covered access to the outside. Histo The Biscayne Engineering Company surveyed the Cocoplum Terrace plat in February 1926 for Mr. Guy Stone, President, and Mr. Harold W. Dorn, Secretary of Larkins Properties, Inc. The plat was recorded on March 5, 1926. The "L" shaped subdivision abutted the Larkins town site on the east along S.W. 62nd Avenue. Merrimac Avenue, today's S.W. 63rd Court, and the location of the subject property provided the only access south to Sunset Drive. The subdivision was platted with curving streets, creating slightly irregularly shaped lots that originally averaged 5D' x 125'. The only exceptions were the eleven lots frontng Sunset Road, intended for commercial development, which had 25 -foot frontages. Since that time, the lots in Block 6 have _been combined, With the average dimension of the lots 105'x 140'. Mr. Jesse Elon Whitsit, owned the home at least as early as 1941. He was one of the contributors to a book entitled The Elementary Principles of Physics, published around 1910. Mr. Whitset was born in 1874 and the 1930 U.S. Census lists him as residing in New York City. In 1941 he added a storage room for an artist's studio to the building at the rear of this property and in 1955 he had the barrel tile roof replaced. By 1957, the property had been sold to Mr. Carl Mayne. City of South Miami Historic Designation Report for THE JESS WHF51T RESIDENCE 6925 SW 63rdrh Court Page 5 The predominant feature of this home is the walled enclosure along the front and side property lines that creates an interior courtyard. While no definitive record for the date of its construction has been discovered, the physical evidence suggests that it was added after the main house was built, and circumstantial evidence points to the period when Mr. Whitsit owned the house. These conclusions are based on the following observations: • There are no permits for construction of the courtyard enclosure. • The walls do not comply with present front and side yard setbacks requirements, suggesting they were built before these requirements were implemented or enforced. • The construction of a storage room for an artist's studio suggests that someone with an artistic sensibility lived in the house and was the likely author of this addition. • The 1955 permit for replacement of roof tiles could refer to these structures. Contextual History: During the late 1880s, South Miami was little more than a pioneer enclave of settlers who established homesteads in the area. When Henry Flogler's Florida Fast Coast Railway built an extension from Miami to Homestead in 1904, with South Miami (then known as The Town of Larkins) as a stop along the way, the community was poised for its development. By 1917 the population of the town had reached approximately 350. By July 1918 nine plats had been filed, four of them east of the railroad and five of them to the west. Much of the land remained in agricultural use. In March 1926, sixty -nine qualified voters within the proposed corporate limits met to change the name of their town from Larkins to the City of South Miami. At that time the boundaries, which covered approximately six square miles, were: Red Road on the east; Ludlum and Palmetto Road on the west; Bird Road and Miller Road on the north, and SW 104th Street and North Kendall Drive on the south. During the 1920s all of South Florida was caught up in the frenetic activity of the Florida Land Boom. South Miami was no exception. During these flamboyant times there were several buildings of consequence constructed in South Miami including the Methodist Church and the Riviera Theater (demolished.) Residential subdivisions were platted as thousands purchased homes in the area. The subdivision of Cambridge Lawns, (a City of South Miami Historic District) that includes modestly scaled homes designed in an English Tudor or Mediterranean Revival style, was built in 1927. The Whitset House is a contemporary of the Cambridge Lawns Historic District. By 1927, the real estate boom had abruptly City of south Miami Historic Designation Repor# for THE JESS WHITSIT RESIDENCE 6925 SW 63rdih Court Page 6 ended, and the state of Florida entered into an economic depression even before the rest of the nation, when the Stock Market collapsed in 1929. In 1933 the City's population increased to 1,544 residents, but the corporate limits of the city were reduced to an area of approximately four square miles. Ill. ARCHITECTURAL DISTINCTION The residence faces west onto SW 63rd Terrace. The massing of the home is divided into three distinct parts. The northernmost bay peaks in a shallow gable roof and rises above the parapet established by the central entrance bay. The center bay steps down to form an entrance element that originally featured two round arched openings (which have since been enclosed) and is covered in a barrel tile shed roof. Immediately south of the entrance bay is a round arched porte - cochere (also subsequently enclosed), that again steps down in height and is covered with a barrel tile shed roof. A one -story garage and servant's quarters is located at the rear of the property. While there were only two existing building permits available, the physical evidence indicates subsequent additions and alterations were made to the home after its construction. In 1941 a permit was issued to Nor. Whitsit for a 9'X13' addition built onto the detached rear structure for use as a: " Store room addition to present studio- one -story high 8' X 13' ( approximate) store room -- paintings, frames, etc." Mr. Whitsit had portions of the house re- roofed in 1955, but the roof parapet walls required additional repairs in 1957 after Carl Mayne acquired the property. The porch and porte - cochere have been enclosed with glass windows and in the opening of the front wall; there is a metal awning window, a type not in existence in 1925. The structures and walls enclosing the front courtyard are also an early addition, built before setback requirements were enforced. The loggia on the south side and the storeroom on the north side abut the house are also placed directly on the property line and are accessed through the courtyard. The wall that creates the enclosed courtyard on the primary (west) elevation is also thought to be constructed after the initial construction, but still within the historic period of the house. The Mediterranean Revival style was an adaptation of centuries -old designs originating in Mediterranean countries. Hallmarks of the style include: extensive wall mass with finely designed details; walls of tinted stucco; broken planes created by the use of curves, the combination of different roof slopes, the combination of one and two -story elements, and the use of interior courtyards.

This home features many of the hallmarks of the style including its masonry construction; variation in the height and pitch of the roof slopes, the creation of an exterior walled courtyard, the use of a clay barrel tile for the roofing material, the use of a round arch as a recurring architectural element; and the employment of a loggia as a method to allow covered access to the outside. Staff noted that for this proposed historic designation the owner approached staff to designate this property. The Board commended the owner, who was not present at the meeting, for the designation request.

Planning Board Applications / Public Hearings PB -06 -023 Applicant: City of South Miami Location:. 6925 SW 63 Court AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH M "H, FLORIDA, RELATING TO A REQUEST TO AMEND THE OFFICIAL ZONING MAP OF THE CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE BY DESIGNATING A SINGLE. FAMILY RESIDENTIAL BUILDING LOCATED AT 6925 SW 63rd COURT AS AN HISTORIC SITE AND BY PLACEMENT OF AN HISTORIC PRESERVATION OVERLAY ZONE (HP -OV) OVER THE EXISTING ZONING USE DISTRICT FOR THIS PROPERTY; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Action: Mr. O'Donniley presented the staff report along with the designation report which was written by the historical resource consultants Ms. Ellen Ugucioni and Antolin Carbonell. The designation report described the history of the residence as well as the architectural significance of the building. Mr. O'Donniley briefly explained that the Historic Preservation Board at its July 31, 2006 meeting reviewed the historic designation report for the single family residence located PB Minutes September 14, 2006 Page 2 of 3 at 6925 SW 63 Court. Fallowing a public hearing the Board passed a motion recommending that the residence be designated an historic site. Staff also noted that the Land Development Code provides that an historic designation recommendation must be enacted as a zone map change. The "HP -0V" Historic Preservation Overlay zoning district is super - imposed as an overlay over the existing underlying use zone. Additionally, Mr. O'Donniley informed the Board that the historic designation of the home was requested by the property owner. The single family was built in 1926 and is a classic example of the small -scale Mediterranean Revival style cottages that was popular in the 1920s. The historic name of the residence is based upon the name of the earliest recorded property owner who was Jesse Elon Whitsit. Mr. O'Donniley provided the following staff observations: (1) The designation report and the procedures followed by the Historic Preservation Board are in accordance with the current LDC regulations governing historic site /district designations. (2) The designation of historic sites is compatible with several Future Land Use Element goals and objectives contained in the Comprehensive Plan: • Objective 1.2 Preserve historic resources by experiencing no demolition or reconfi&uration of specified resources ........." (3) The alteration, renovation, remodeling, or landscape change affecting the exterior of a designated historic building will require special approval in the form of a "certificate of appropriateness" (COA). This approval requires a review by the Historic Preservation Board and final approval by the City Commission. The Designation Report contains a section entitled Design Review Guidelines (pp.8 -9) which establishes architectural guidelines for the review of future certificates of appropriateness. (4) The proposed designation will not require changes to any of the dimensional standards or permitted uses currently applicable to the area's RS -3, Single Family Low. Density Residential zoning district. Recommendation: Staff recommended that the historic designation and the placement of an "HP -OV" district over the existing zoning district for the building at 6925 SW 63 Court be approved. Public Hearings: Chair Morton opened the public hearing. No one spoke on this item. PB Minutes September 14, 2006 Page 3 of 3 Mr. Morton closed the public hearing. Mr. Comendeiro inquired if the owner of the residence was present at this meeting. Mr. O'Donniley responded that the owner, Ms. Scalia was not able to attend but that she was in full support of the designation. Motion: Mr. Comendeiro moved to recommend approval of the designation report. Ms. Yates seconded the motion.
