So sad...no approval even after adding architectural details to break up the mass of the second story's front facade. However, this time around, the city included a picture of what they would like:
- add corbels (an example) to the right and left upper story windows such that the roofs slope downwards there. We had gables there before.
- lower the gable of the middle upper story window
- add a gable over the front door
- remove the gable above the garage
Every change they propose is to draw the eyes downward so that the house won't look too large in the neighborhood. The only thing I can be grateful for is that they didn't ask us to change the interior floorplan. =/
