Records indicate the southern half of the lot has been vacant in perpetuity and has been associated with the home at 1214 Maple since its construction in the mid-1890s. The proposed area of subdivision has not been improved and contains no structu res nor significant landscape features. One additional double -lot exists atthe far north portion of the block.

As such, the proposed subdivision has a diminutive impact on integrity of setting. (b) Provide the location and design of new structures and objects that are visually compatible with the landmark or sites, buildings, structures, and objects in the district; and Separate plans for construction of a single-family home at 1210 Maple have been provided and are under review by the Commission.
