All buildings sit on a foundation. The way
in which that is visually expressed is a design feature which can
affect compatibility.
New construction should reflect the prevailing
sense of foundation height on contiguous historic buildings.
-
Avoid high walk-ups if surrounding buildings
are cottages raised only two or three steps off the ground.
-
Avoid designs which appear to hug the ground
if surrounding buildings are raised on high foundations.
