3.0 Detailed Design Guidelines for the Princess Anne Street Historic Entrance Corridor

The Princess Anne Street corridor has developed and redeveloped in different architectural styles over time. As one travels from Route 1 toward the downtown, one generally experiences a stepping back in time from more modern styles of architecture to the Colonial styles of downtown buildings. These design guidelines promote a continuation of this stepping back in time in terms of architectural character so as to create an appropriate transition to the Historic Fredericksburg District from Route 1. Analysis of the corridor has resulted in the identification of three design character zones for the architecture and site design along the corridor (Figure 3.1‐1). These design character zones are described below and are intended to guide the character and quality of new development, redevelopment and other changes in the physical character of the corridor. Applicants are encouraged to submit plans that reflect and compliment the character and building design styles described in the design character zones. However, these guidelines are not intended to dictate any particular architectural style.

PurposeThe Fredericksburg Economic Development Authority contracted with Frazier Associates to conduct an on-site visual assessment of the Princess Anne Street Historic Corridor from Jefferson Davis Highway south to Fauquier Avenue. The assessment took place January 10 and 11, 2013. The goal of the assessment was to determine the current condition of and needed improvements to buildings and building sites along this important corridor that leads to historic downtown Fredericksburg. The information will be used to guide and prioritize efforts to make improvements along the corridor. It is important to note that any improvements will need to follow the design guidelines established for the Princess Anne Street Historic Corridor Overlay District and the plans be approved by the Fredericksburg Planning Commission.

The EDA has a 50/50 matching grant program up to a maximum grant of $10,000 for businesses or property owners seeking to renovate or restore commercial and residential building facades in the Princess Anne Street corridor. This Assessment is used as a guide by the EDA in reviewing grant applications. The grants are subject to EDA approval and the availability of grant funds is limited. For additional information, contact the Department of Economic Development and Tourism at 540-372-1216.

Methodology for Facade EvaluationThe Princess Anne Street design guidelines identify three dis-tricts: Old Route 1 Highway, Mill, and Transition districts. In contrast to the historic downtown area, individual sites play a large role in the visual perception of the corridor. In addition, the size of the site changes in relation to the district. From the Mill District north through the Old Route 1 Highway District, lots tend to be larger and have larger parking areas in propor-tion to the building footprint. From the Mill District south to the Transitional District, lots are smaller and there is a larger proportion of building footprint to site. Therefore an assess-ment was conducted on two levels – building and site.

Building character, style, and age varies greatly along the corridor. Building types range from historic houses to gas stations, period drive-thru restaurants to both small and large hotels of various styles and periods. The assessment, there-fore, was made from a perspective of maintenance and curb appeal rather than from a perspective of architectural style. In general, it was the overall appearance and maintenance of the building that was evaluated.

Sites were generally evaluated using the corridor overlay guidelines. Key elements included site access points (if the site had a parking lot), paving, screening and landscaping, lighting, and signs.

Each property was photographed and evaluated on a scale of 0 to 3 for both the site and the building. Accompanying maps and building elevation photo sheets of each block record the evaluation of each property.

The scale is as follows:

0 – No work needed

1 – Minor improvements recommended

2 – Moderate improvements recommended

3 – Major improvements recommended

FindingsApproximately 91 properties were assessed along the Princess Anne corridor.

Of the total sites evaluated, 29 or 32% fell into Category 3 for which major improvements are recommended. Thirty-eight (38) or 42% fell into Categories 1 and 2 suggesting minor and moderate improvements are needed. Twenty-four (24) properties were Category 0 requiring no site improvements.

Of the buildings assessed on the 91 properties, only one was considered a Category 3 due to apparent structural issues. Forty-eight (48) buildings (over 50%) ranked a Category 1 or 2 requiring minor or moderate improvements. Forty-two (42) properties ranked a Category 0 for building improvements, however, some of these properties had no building on the site.

Clearly, site improvements that meet the Design Guidelines, could go a long way toward enhancing the visual appeal of Princess Anne Street. Most properties could benefit from simple spring-cleaning and a little attention to curb appeal such as fresh paint.

Suggested Scope of Property

Improvements and CostsSite ImprovementsBecause the size of sites vary drastically along the corridor it was difficult to assign a cost to the various categories of recommended improvements. Instead, levels of improvements are suggested for various components of site improvements in the accompanying chart.

Budget numbers for sample site improvements:

Demolition of asphalt: $1/sf

Concrete curb: $10/lf

Topsoil and seed: $2/sf

Tree: $1300 ea

Small flowering tree: $300 ea

Shrubs (4’): $60/ea

Shrubs (3 gal): $40/ea

Perennials: $8-30 ea

Bulbs: $1/ea

Annuals: $2.50+/flat

Mulch: $5/sq yard

Stamped, Stained and Sealed Asphalt: $4-6/sf

Fencing: $10-20/lf depending on height and material

New monument style signs: $900-1500 ea

Building ImprovementsThe majority of building improvements in the assessment relate to basic painting, repairs, removal of abandoned signs, addition of awnings, and new signage (Category 1 and 2). There are cases where, if an owner so desired, major upgrades could be made to a building, completely changing its character and appearance. In general, the buildings were not graded according to this kind of improvement. One sample project, Little Tire, however does give a good example of this kind of upgrade. (See Section IV)

Next StepsBased on this assessment, three properties were chosen to illustrate potential property improvements. The drawings of these projects are included in this report.

An additional project by Herlong Associates is also included as an example of potential improvements.

Featured BuildingsDrawings were prepared for the following buildings and are included in Section IV of this report:

1409-1419 Princess Anne Street – The site is a Category 3/Buildings are a Categories 2 and 1.

1623 Princess Anne Street and Lot – The site is a Category 3/Building is Category 1.

1901 Princess Anne (Herlong Associates) – The site is Category 3/Building is Category 2.

2415 Princess Anne (Little Tire) – The site is a Category 3/Building is a Category 1 (Note, the owner is planning a building improvement that is more aligned with Category 3.

SIGNS Attractively designed and sized signs contribute to the positive image of a business and the corridor.

c. Individually-attached, metal or wood sign letters to sign panel option above. Ensure letter height to be 3-1/2” to 4” shorter than height of frieze panel and centered.

5. Provide new directional sign for parking lot. coordinate materials, finishes and letter-style with new building signs. Ensure surrounding landscaping will not obscure sign.

6. grade existing gravel lot for slope. Provide new asphalt installation. Stripe for new parking spaces. Verify compliance of parking lot with VDOT and city of Fredericksburg zoning code.

7. Screen mechanical equipment and loading areas with painted wood or metal fences with less than 2” spaces between verticals.
