MEETING
DATE: August 13, 2025
DEPARTMENT: Historic Preservation Commission
ITEM TYPE: Public Hearing
HPC 20252779 - 1076 Canton Street - Certificate of Appropriateness for the demolition of an existing historic structure, to be followed by the reconstruction of the building, using historic materials
Item Summary:
The applicants are proposing taking down the currently existing structure at 1076 Canton Street, to be rebuilt closely to the existing structure, and using as much of the existing historic materials as possible.
The applicants have submitted a structural engineer's report that, the applicants claim, states that the building cannot withstand long continued use. While the structural engineer's report itself does not go so far as to explicitly state that claim, the report does note that the damage and rot seen in the building is systemic and widespread throughout the building. The structural engineer's report does not conclude that the building cannot be restored; however, it does conclude that restoration of the current building would have a cost that "rivals" or supersedes the cost of demolishing the building and rebuilding the structure entirely.
Committee or Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommend approval with conditions for HPC 20252779. Staff recommends the following conditions:
- 1. Demolition may only occur if a reconstruction has been approved by the Historical Preservation Commission, and that any reconstruction (of the historic core of the building) approved by the Historical Preservation Commission is similar in appearance to the previously existing building;
- 2. The reuse of all original historic materials (all materials that have a reasonable chance of having been installed prior to 1975) that are not rotten, broken, or otherwise damaged beyond repair is to be required during reconstruction;
- 3. Applicants must return to the Historical Preservation Commission for a working session prior to final completion of the project and notify the Historical Preservation Commission of what elements of the building were successfully maintained; and,
- 4. Applicants must, after final completion of the project, submit elevations of the structure to the Planning & Zoning Director (or Historic District Planner) and Historical Preservation Commission Chair indicating which portions of the elevations were successfully maintained from original historic materials.

Re: HPC Design Plan Application – Ten Seventy Six Club revised design Roswell, Georgia RPA Project No. 2021112.10
The subject property is located at 1076 Canton Street, Roswell, Georgia 30075. Historically used as an event facility, the site is being redeveloped into a private club with guest cottages and a spa. The proposed project received Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) approval on August 12, 2021, with a minor revision approved on May 31, 2022. Interior demolition was subsequently approved on December 20, 2022.
During demolition, significant structural deficiencies were identified in both the original historic building and the 1990s-era addition:
Historic Structure:
A structural assessment conducted by a licensed structural engineer revealed that the original woodframe structure suffers from extensive moisture-related deterioration. The exterior wood siding is installed directly onto the wall studs without intermediary sheathing or a weather-resistant barrier. This construction method has led to substantial moisture infiltration and long-term degradation of the exterior wall framing. In many locations, studs exhibit signs of rot, biological growth, and compromised structural capacity. Additionally, the original floor framing system was found to be inadequately supported and inconsistent with modern load-bearing standards. Lateral stability of the structure is also deficient due to the absence of proper bracing or shear-resisting elements.

3.1.b
3.1.b
1990s Addition:
The 1990s addition was constructed without sheathing, and lacks continuous load paths and structural reinforcement as required by current building codes. The framing system does not meet the minimum structural performance criteria for wall rigidity or weather resistance.
Given the comprehensive nature of the structural failures, the property owner is requesting approval for full demolition of the existing structures. Salvageable architectural elements of historical significance—such as the original wood siding, the front entry door, and brick from the chimneys and foundation—will be carefully removed and preserved for reuse in the reconstruction. The historic structure will be rebuilt to replicate its original form and appearance, incorporating current codecompliant structural design and materials. The 1990s addition will be reconstructed with a similar footprint and form, incorporating minor modifications from the previously approved design, to be submitted separately.
The proposed demolition scope includes complete removal of existing roofs, walls, floor systems, and foundations.
We believe this comprehensive reconstruction will preserve the architectural legacy of the original structure while ensuring that it meets modern structural and safety standards—ultimately enhancing the historic fabric of Roswell.
Sincerely, Randall-Paulson Architects, Incorporated

Randall Paulson Architects 85 A Mill Street, Suite 200 Roswell, GA 30075 Attention: Marcus Mello, AIA
Subject: 1076 Canton St, Roswell, GA 30075 Structural Assessment
Dear Marcus:
This correspondence is intended to summarize my observations and recommendations relative to my June 6, 2025 visit to the site with you.
The purpose of this site visit was to conduct a visual assessment of the historic portion of the subject property following interior demolition activities. The area of focus was the original rectangular structure, approximately 20 feet by 46 feet in plan, located closest to Canton Street. Reported concerns included foundation instability, termite damage, missing sheathing, and insufficient roof support.
Atlanta Dallas Denver My observations were limited to what was visible. All of the interior drywall, insulation, plumbing and electrical systems had been removed. The exterior siding remained in place. The crawl space was partially visible from small holes cut into the floor and from access holes in an adjacent building foundation.
Las Vegas Orange County Phoenix Salt Lake City The building in question was reportedly built about 1880. The foundation appeared to include at least three types: stone with mortar, brick, and retrofit surface blocks. The walls were constructed with wood 2x4 wood studs (actual dimension of 2"x4") spaced at 24" o.c. There was a 4x8 (actual dimension of 4"x8") wood beam around the perimeter of the house at the floor and a 4x6 (actual dimension of 4"x6") wood beam around the perimeter of the house at the roof. The floor was framed with 2x8 joists (actual dimension of 2"x8") and the roof was framed with 2x4 rafters (actual dimension of 2"x4") spaced at 24" o.c.. The floors and roof are covered with wood planks. The exterior walls are covered with wood siding.
303 Perimeter Center North Suite 8887 Atlanta, GA 30346
The following items were noticed during my visual observation:
470.837.9838 GA@wrightengineers.com
wrightengineers.com
Framing
There are several locations throughout the structure where the framing is damaged from termites, water exposure, and fire. In Photo 1, the 4x4 corner post has been completely damaged by termites and is exposed to the exterior elements. All termite damaged framing will need to be replaced. In Photo 2, the 4x8 beam at the floor level is completely missing due to rot. This occurs at a bearing point for the studs. This rotted beam needs to be replaced. In Photo 3, the siding has completely rotted and there is a hole to the exterior of the building. All damaged siding needs to be replaced. In Photo 4, there has been a fire in the building in the past. The charred wood should be further investigated and repaired as needed.
In Photos 5, 8 and 9, the framing around the opening does not meet current code requirements. New framing will need to be added to support the gravity and wind loads on the windows.
The building does not have shear walls or moisture protection. In talking with the architect, in order to provide moisture protection, all of the exterior siding would need to be removed, the exterior walls would be sheathed with plywood, the moisture protection would be added to the
building and then the siding would be replaced. Additionally, it is anticipated that the front entry porch will be removed as part of the renovation. We anticipate finding more structural concerns when the siding and porch are removed.
We have run calculations for the roof and floor framing. Both framing systems are significantly undersized for currnet code requirements. Both the floor and the roof would need to be re-framed or significantly strengthened.
While all of the framing repairs are being done, the building will need to be shored.
Differential Settlement and Foundations
The building is showing significant signs of differential settlement. The elevation of the perimeter walls varies by several inches throughout the structure. In Photo 5, the left side of the window has dropped about 1" in just the width of the window. Additionally, in the same photo, the right side of the fireplace has dropped in elevation. In Photo 6, the differential settlement has caused the splice in the top beam to separate. In Photo 7, there is an elevation difference of the ridge line just to the left of the chimney. In Photo 8, there is noticeable elevation difference across the width of the window and a corresponding elevation difference of the beam at the floor line. In Photo 9, the elevation difference of the 4x8 beam along the floor line is evident.
Nearly all walls were experiencing significant differential settlement issues. Additionally, since the framing floor and roof framing generally span from exterior wall to exterior wall, the floors are not level and are uneven.
In our investigation of the differential settlement concerns with the building, we began looking at the foundations. The foundations appeared to be constructed with three different methods. A majority of the foundation was stone with mortar (see Photos 10 and 11). There were a few brick foundations (See Photos 12 and 13). In Photo 13, the brick pier has a significant crack and appears to be leaning out of plane. This pier needs to be repaired. In Photo 14, the brick at the bottom of the chimney is crumbling and needs to be repaired. In the past, the 1st level floor was supported by new wood framing bearing on concrete blocks placed on top of the existing soil (See Photo 15). In our observations, we did not see any anchors attaching the wood framing to the foundation system.
It is clear that the building has been experiencing differential settlement concerns for many years. It appears that at some point, an attempt was made to add supports for the floors to help resolve the concerns. Ultimately, the foundation is in need of significant repairs.
In order to correct differential settlement issue, it has been our experience that helical piers or hydraulically driven piers would need to be installed around the perimeter of the building and at interior bearing locations to support the building and to level the building. It has also been our experience that often times, the stone foundations are not adequate to span between the piers. This would mean that the building would need to be shored, the existing foundations removed, new foundations and piers (if necessary) would be installed and then the building could be anchored to the new foundation.
Conclusion
Based on my visual observations, the building is experiencing widespread and severe structural degradation, including differential settlement, framing failures, and code-deficient systems. These issues appear systemic rather than localized and raise significant concerns about the long-term viability and safety of the structure.
Due to the extent of structural damage, foundation instability, and the fact that the structure does not meet modern code requirements, rehabilitating the building to meet both safety and
performance standards would require extensive reconstruction—potentially rivaling or exceeding $\frac
$ the cost of replacement.
Thank you for the opportunity to be of service. Please contact me at my office should you have any questions or comments regarding the above. Best regards,

Staff Comments
Overview:
The applicants are proposing taking down the existing structure at 1076 Canton Street, to be rebuilt in an architectural style that mimics the existing structure using as much of the existing historic materials as possible.
The applicants have submitted a structural engineer's report that states that the building cannot withstand long term continued use. The structural engineer's report notes that the damage and rot seen in the building is systemic and widespread throughout the building. It does not conclude that the building cannot be restored; however, it does conclude that restoration of the current building would have a cost that "rivals" or supersedes the cost of demolishing the building and rebuilding the structure entirely.
The applicants' plans were submitted in June of 2025 and plan reviews were completed in July 2025.
Property History:
c.1870: The main two-story I-house portion of the existing structure is built as a single-family residence. According to conflicting sources, the home may have been built (or later owned) by Roswell's first veterinarian. The 1973 Roswell Historic Area Study suggests that the house was built c.1872.
c.1890: A rear addition is added to the building; this addition can be seen in the 1911 Sanborn map of Roswell. It does not appear this addition is still existing on the current structure.
1909: The home is purchased by Bascomb Chalmers Ball, a prominent grocery merchant on Canton Street, and begins to be occupied by himself, along with his wife, Lizzie Ball (née Gunter), and their three children, Otis, Lillian, and Cora.
According to Roswell: A Pictorial History, as well as the 1930 U.S. Census, Cora grew up to become a clerk at the Citizens Bank on Elizabeth Way, and later a stenographer. Otis grew up to become a clerk at the H.I. Weave and Company general store.
The Ball Family may be descended from Willis Ball, who designed Barrington Hall and Roswell Presbyterian Church's Historic Sanctuary, as well as contributed to the design of Bulloch Hall. The family may also be related to Hazel Ball, who co-founded the first public library in Roswell in 1947. These connections could not be confirmed at this time.
The Gunter Family of Lizzie Ball's relations were among those who designed and built the first Methodist church in Roswell, according to archivist Jeanne-Marie Roberts of the Roswell Historical Society
The house itself comes to be referred to as "The Ball House." Some sources, such as the 1973 Roswell History Area Study, suggests that the home was referred to as "Ball Place."
c.1938: At least three outbuildings are built towards the rear of the property, as found on historical aerial photographs, including some structures with similar footprint sizes of the primary house itself.
c.1960: One of the outbuildings, the furthest to the rear of the property, is presumably demolished and stops showing up on historical aerials
c.1960s: An addition is known to have been added to the home; it is unclear if this addition is on the existing structure.
c.1972: Remainder of rear outbuildings are presumably demolished and no longer clearly appear on aerial photographs.
1981: The Ball Family, specifically Cora Ball, sells the home. The family occupied the residence for a confirmed 72 years.
The house becomes adaptively reused as office space in the same year. A parking lot is added to the rear of the building, to accommodate the office space, without altering the street-facing character of the property.
1985: The house is sold to a developer, Zachary Henderson. A rezoning is applied for and approved by Mayor and Council, changing the zoning from an office-type zoning to a commercial-type zoning (RZ 53). Henderson claims at this time that the house was constructed by Cora Ball's grandfather,
presumably a member of the Ball Family, Staff have not been able to verify that to be the case.
At the time, Henderson states the building is intended to be sold to a Roswell couple for use as a restaurant.
A rear and side addition are added to the current structure.
1988: The house is included in an expansion of the Historic District (HPC 11; RZ16).
1995: The house is sold to Karl Boegner; Henderson remains a leading part of many later projects with the house.
1996 February 8: The house is approved by HPC to begin renovations to become a person public events space, with 47 parking spaces, to be known as "Founder's Hall" (HPC 02).
A zoning variance is reportedly granted on the same day, but no record of a variance approved on this date was found by Staff as of writing.
1996 February – April: The rear of the property was clear cut to expand parking to 100 standard spaces (or ~200 spaces valet parked), more than doubling the 47 spaces in then approved site plans. Developer's newsletter states that the building is attempting to be capable of 500 attendees, more than double the 125 in then approved plans.
Neighbors and the Historic Neighborhood Preservation Society begins public opposition to the Founder's Hall project. In addition to claiming that development was out-of-scope with what was approved by HPC, neighbors claim that some HPC members acted while having a conflict-of-interest, failed to issue a Certificate of Appropriateness, and approved the application without a public hearing. The approval is appealed to Mayor & Council. The appellants are represented by Jere Wood, who later became Mayor of Roswell.
1996 March 25: Boegner, in a letter given to the City and agreed upon by Wood, agrees to replant part of the vegetated buffer on the property.
1996 April 15: Mayor & Council affirm in a public meeting that the house can be used for public event space under the zoning classifications of the time. Henderson, reportedly acting as architect for the project, spoke before Mayor & Council.
1996 June 21: A Certificate of Appropriateness is issued for HPC 02.
c.1996: The original less-than-full-height entry porch is replaced with a full-façade porch, meant to be, in the words of Henderson, "reminiscent of traditional plantation architecture." As the structure was built in c.1870, during the Reconstruction period, the home likely could never have been used as a plantation home.
2005: BZA reviews a variance request to reduce a foot buffer along the north of the property to 10 feet and increase the maximum allowable floor area ratio (FAR) from 0.5 to 0.564 (BZA 23). The variance request is withdrawn. The requirements associated with this variance request are no longer in place.
2007: BZA reviews a variance request to reduce a foot buffer along the north of the property, this variance appears to have been withdrawn (BZA 33); HPC approves a white lattice screening fence, black metal lighting posts, and a gazebo (HPC 50)
2021: HPC approves redevelopment of the site as a private club/hotel, including the addition of ten guest cottages, a pool, spa, small parking deck, and the removal of non-historic porches on the primary structure (HPC 20212669)
2022: HPC Staff approves minor changes to the proposed siding, windows, and doors (HPC 20222009).
2023: An HPC administrative application is filed for a dumpster enclosure but expires due to missed payment surpassing a year (HPC 20231848).
2025 June: The current two HPC applications are submitted to the City.
Site Plan:
The property includes a 9,558 square foot two-story historical structure, with non-historic rear and side additions, sitting on 1.73 acres of land. The building also includes a basement below the non-historic additions. The existing building has a front and rear porch, both of which are non-historic and have previously been approved by HPC for demolition (HPC 20212669).
This approval by HPC (HPC 20212669) includes the addition of 10 guest cottages, a spa building, pool, cabana bar, gardens, and a small parking deck built on the rear of the property.
Architecture:
Ball House/Founder's Hall (1076 Canton Street) is a primarily wood-sided, side-gabled, I-house style home. It has two flanking brick chimneys that protrude from the form of the house on the north and south sides. The home has non-historic side and rear additions, added in 1996, which match the material appearance of the historic core of the house. A portion of the house past the initial I-house core are historical additions.
The existing building is a prime example of Greek Revival architecture in an I-House style of home. The home was originally built as a less-than-full-height-entry variant of Greek Revival structure. However, renovations to the front porch in c.1996 included the addition of a full-façade porch. The applicants have previously received HPC approval to return the porch to a historically appropriate architectural design. The roofing on the historic core of the building is side-gabled, while the roofing on the non-historic additions is partially simple-hipped and partially side-gabled.
1076 Canton Street is a relatively unique architectural style and build, while being a Reconstruction-era construction. Related examples are often, Antebellum.
The building includes a front door with a full transom window and sidelights, a common element of Greek Revival structures. However, the front door, in its current appearance, does not include a door surround and lintel. This is not entirely unheard of, Bulloch and Barrington Halls, both also examples of Greek Revival homes, also have simpler door surrounds and lintels.
The currently existing front porch has four imposing Doric square columns. While these specific columns are non-historic additions that date to the new porch's construction, the home has always had Doric square columns, just less significant in size.
The house has a present cornice line on its own, but the non-historic front porch makes it more distinctive. The cornice line includes cornice returns on the core historical portion of the house.
Ball House/Founder's Hall share similarities in architecture with a few other examples in the Historic District. Perhaps the closest example of this is 1002 Canton Street, built c.1900. 1002 Canton Street is also a primarily wood-sided side-gabled I-House, with later side and rear additions. However, while 1002 Canton Street is, arguably, also a Greek Revival, it lacks many of the details that Ball House/Founder's Hall does have. 1002 Canton lacks sidelights on its front door and only has a small half-circle transom window without a lintel. 1002 Canton also has columns that lack distinctive capital.
Analysis:
UDC
1.4.1.B – HPC has final authority to determine whether a development is consistent with the UDC Design Guidelines. HPC is free to exercise its own judgement in the application of the UDC Design Guidelines, to ensure that the spirit and intent of the guidelines are most appropriately applied to every given proposal.
13.7.11.F – Criteria for HPC to review demolitions, as written in the UDC, are in UDC 13.7.11.F. These are identical to the criteria listed in UDC Design Guidelines 5.52 and can be seen below in Staff's analysis on UDC Design Guidelines Section 5.52.
UDC 13.7.11.F also specifically states that it is HPC that must determine if a proposed demolition in the Historic District meets the criteria for demolition.
UDC Design Guidelines
Section 5.52a (and UDC 13.7.11.F.1) – Is the building or structure of such architectural or historical interest that its moving, removing, capsulating or razing would be to the detriment of the public interest?
The structure is a modified example of an "I-House" layout uncommon to the area during the period of its construction (c.1870) and is an example of Greek Revival architecture from the Reconstruction period, making it unique relative to the other Greek Revival structures in the Historic District, which tend to be antebellum. It is, therefore, of high architectural interest and notable historic interest, of which demolition would be detrimental to the continued public interest of the building.
Section 5.52b (and UDC 13.7.11.F.2) – Is the building or structure of such interest that it could be made into an historic shrine?
The building has been altered too significantly from its historical nature and has had a large majority of its interior ripped out. It, therefore, would be unlikely to serve as a historic shrine. Examples of historical shrines in the Historic District include Bulloch Hall and Smith Plantation.
Sections 5.52c (and UDC 13.7.11.F.3) – Is the building or structure of such old and unusual or uncommon design, texture and material that it could not be reproduced or be reproduced only with great difficulty?
The applicants have submitted a proposal that would recreate the building as it currently exists, with changes to the reconstruction of the non-historic portion of the building. A Staff recommended condition should be that demolition can only occur if the historical core of the structure is reconstructed as closely as possible to the original, with a plan regarding reusing original material.
Section 5.52d (and UDC 13.7.11.F.4) – Would retention of the building or structure help preserve and protect an historic place or area of historic interest in the city?
No significant recorded historical event has occurred on the property, or within the primary structure. Furthermore, the building is not extensively tied to a notable historical figure. The building is, itself, designated as a historic structure in the Historic District. However, lacking a particular historical event or person, the building cannot fully be considered a "historic place," independent of its architectural contribution to the Historic District.
Section 5.52e (and UDC 13.7.11.F.5) – Would retention of the building or structure promote the general welfare by maintaining and increasing real estate values, generating business, creating new positions, attracting tourists, students, writers, historians, artists and artisans, attracting new residents, encouraging study and interest in American history, stimulating interest and study in architecture and design, educating citizens in American culture and heritage and making the city a more attractive and desirable place in which to live?
Retention of this structure, as an occupied building, could actively promote the general welfare of Roswell, as well as maintain and improve property values, business, job positions, attract tourists, students, writers, historians, artists and artisans, and new residents; and encourage the study and teaching of American and local history, culture, and architecture.
However, the retention of this building in a way that would allow it to be safely occupied may prove overly burdensome to any potential developer or occupier. Retention of this building, if not occupied and in use, would likely prove as a detriment to these same goals. The proposed destruction and reconstruction of this building would further these goals.
Reasoning for recommendation
Staff recommend approval with conditions for this application based on the following reasons:
- Ball House/Founder's Hall satisfies several of the criteria for consideration of approval of a full demolition of an historic structure in the Historic District;
- While removal of the structure would be to the public detriment due to its uncommon architecture for its time period of construction, the building would be unlikely to serve as a historical shrine, can be rebuilt with similar architectural appearance, and does not have a known tie to a major historical person or event;
- Restoring the building to ensure its structural integrity will likely be financially burdensome to any the developer; and,
- In order for the site to be adequately used and, therefore, successfully contribute to the Historic District, demolition and reconstruction using historic materials may be the best long-term solution.

This property is subject to historic review and is considered 'historic' on the 2003 Historic Resources
Survey.
This application is approved for review by the HPC. Final Staff recommendation to HPC will most likely
use the following criteria:
-
UDC 1.4.1.B: While the criteria for an historic demolition is written into both the UDC and UDC Design
Guidelines, the HPC may determine its own interpretation for how the UDC Design Guidelines are
interpreted.
-
UDC 13.7.11.F.1 & UDC Design Guidelines 5.52a: The structure is a modified example of an ""I
House"" layout uncommon to the area during the period of its construction (c.1870) and is an example
of Greek Revival architecture from the Reconstruction period, making it unique relative to the other
Greek Revival structures in the Historic Distoric, which tend to be antebellum. It is, therefore, of high
architectural interest and notable historic interest, of which demolition would be detrimental to the
continued interest of the building.
-
UDC 13.7.11.F.2. & UDC Design Guidelines 5.52b: So far as can be found as of initial plan review, the
building does not have significant enough connections to specific historic figures or events to be made
into a historic shrine. This criteria does not restrict demolition for the property.
-
UDC 13.7.11.F.3 & UDC Design Guidelines 5.52c: The applicants have actively made a proposal that
would recreate the building relatively closely to as it currently exists. A Staff recommended condition
should be that demolition can only occur if the structure is reconstructed as closely as possible to the
original, with a minimum regarding how much must be made using original material. This criteria does
not restrict demolition for the property.
-
UDC 13.7.11.F.4 & UDC Design Guidelines 5.52d: As established, retention of the building would
preserve a designated historic structure in the Historic District. Therefore, under this criteria, demolition
would not be appropriate.
-
UDC 13.7.11.F.5 & UDC Design Guidelines 5.52e: Retention of this structure, as an occupied building,
could actively promote the general welfare of Roswell, as well as maintain and improve property values,
business, job positions; attract tourists, students, writers, historians, artists and artisans, and new
residents; and encourage the study and teaching of American and local history, culture, and
architecture. However, the retention of this building in a way that would allow it to be safely regularly
occupied may prove overly burdensome to any potential developer or occupier. Retention of this
building, if not occupied and in use, would likely prove as a detriment to these same goals. Meanwhile,
in such a scenario, the destruction and reconstruction of this building, would further these goals.
Therefore, under this criteria, demolition may be appropriate, but only if it is determined by HPC that
maintaining the building in a safe manner would be overly burdensome to a reasonable development.
-
UDC Design Guidelines 5.52: It can be reasonably argued that the structure has gone beyond the
state in which reasonable repair and restoration would save the structure. The provided engineer's
report gives the implication that such restoration is possible, but may be overly burdensome to any
potential applicant. HPC must determine if this is a reasonable cause to suggest that the building has
""lost its integrity,"" as required by the UDC Design Guidelines.

commencing work at the site (along with HPC stipulations for materials recovery and use).
2. Should HPC require the building/structure to be repaired or renovation/alteration to preserve a portion
or all of the existing building, the following will be required to be submitted with a demolition permit:
Applicants are required to submit a detailed engineering report from a Georgia license engineer on the
existing structure's ability to withstand proposed scope of work, including repairs or partial demolition.
Due to the condition of the existing building,
and need for repairs throughout, concerns for the structural
integrity of the building warrant assessment of the exiting foundation, walls, and roof structure to
withstand the extent of work required to complete the scope of work.
A certified, detailed demolition report for the project scope that depicts a phased demolition to complete
the prescribed repairs listed in the attached engineering report. The report is to also include a shoring
plan to support the existing building in place. A pre-application meeting to discuss project scope and
how to proceed will be required. Shoring plan must also show how the existing historic structure will be
supported and protected during each phase of the demolition to complete the required repair.

HPC 20252820 - 1076 Canton Street - Certificate of Appropriateness for the reconstruction of a formerly historic structure, after the demolition of the originally existing structure
Item Summary:
The applicants are proposing to demolish the existing structure at 1076 Canton Street, and rebuilt the historic core of the building as closely to the existing structure, with changes being made to the reconstruction of the non-historic additions. The applicant reports that they will be using existing historic materials, as much as possible.
Additionally, the applicants are proposing other changes to their previous August 11th, 2021 approval in HPC 20212669. An ADA-accessible cabana will be moved to the area previous approved for a pool cabana. A pool cabana and restrooms are changed into two different structures. A new landscape plan has been submitted to accommodate new building locations.
Minor changes to the approved façades and windows on the spa building are also being proposed.
Committee or Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommend approval with conditions for HPC 2025820. Staff recommends the following conditions:
1. Demolition of the building must be approved by the Historical Preservation Commission before reconstruction of the building may occur;
2. The reuse of all original historic materials (all materials that have a reasonable chance of having been installed prior to 1975) that are not rotten, broken, or otherwise damaged beyond repair is to be required;
3. Applicants must return to the Historical Preservation Commission for a working session some time prior to final completion of the project and notify the Historical Preservation Commission of what elements of the building were successfully maintained
4. Applicants must, after final completion of the project, submit elevations of the structure to the Planning & Zoning Director (or Historic District Planner) and Historical Preservation Commission Chair indicating which portions of the elevations were successfully maintained from original historic materials.
3. Raised planting beds or vertical trellises must be placed on the front wall of the ground floor of the structure, to be approved as an HPC administrative application, or a variance must be approved for the insufficient transparency on the lower level, lowering the requirement from 20% to 12%;
4. The applicant must apply for and receive approval for a variance for the reduction in the transparency on the upper level, lowering the requirement from 20% to 12%;
Agenda Item (ID # 9997)
5. Applicants must provide Staff with details of any and all structures and objects being placed in the setbacks within the proposed fenced enclosure on the South-side of the primary structure;
6. Administrative HPC approval must be obtained for the proposed wood fencing. Fencing must either be stained a shade of dark brown or painted to match the primary structure; and
7. Applicant must submit an updated lighting package and photometric plan that meets photometric maximums of 1.0 foot-candles at the property line.
Alternatively, if the Historical Preservation Commission does not approve demolition of the building, then Staff preliminarily recommends the following conditions:
1. The applicants must submit a detailed engineering report to the Chief Building Official and Historic District Planner that the building can withstand proposed scope of work;
2. The building must be inspected by the Chief Building Official can withstand partial reconstruction without demolition;
2. The applicants must adhere to any and all shoring plans and requirements issued by the Chief Building Official;

Staff Comments
Overview:
The applicants are proposing to demolish the existing structure at 1076 Canton Street and rebuild the historic core of the building as closely as possible to the existing structure, with changes being made to the reconstruction of the non-historic additions. The applicant reports that they will be using existing historic materials, as much as possible.
Additionally, the applicants are proposing additional changes to their previous August 11th , 2021, approval in HPC 20212669. An ADA-accessible cabana will be moved to the area previously approved for a pool cabana. The pool cabana and restroom structure locations have been changed. A new landscape plan has been submitted to accommodate new building locations.
Minor changes to the approved façades and windows on the spa building are also being proposed.
The applicants' plans were submitted in June of 2025 and plan reviews were completed in July 2025.
Property History:
c.1870: The main two-story I-box portion of the existing structure is built as a single-family residence. According to conflicting sources, the home may have been built (or later owned) by Roswell's first veterinarian. The 1973 Roswell Historic Area Study suggests that the house was built c.1872.
c.1890: A rear addition is added to the building; this addition can be seen in the 1911 Sanborn map of Roswell. It does not appear this addition is still existing on the current structure.
1909: The home is purchased by Bascomb Chalmers Ball, a prominent grocery merchant on Canton Street, and begins to be occupied by himself, along with his wife, Lizzie Ball (née Gunter), and their three children, Otis, Lillian, and Cora.
According to Roswell: A Pictorial History, as well as the 1930 U.S. Census, Cora grew up to become a clerk at the Citizens Bank on Elizabeth Way, and later a stenographer. Otis grew up to become a clerk at the H.I. Weave and Company general store.
The Ball Family may be descended from Willis Ball, who designed Barrington Hall and Roswell Presbyterian Church's Historic Sanctuary, as well as contributed to the design of Bulloch Hall. The family may also be related to Hazel Ball, who co-founded the first public library in Roswell in 1947. These connections could not be confirmed at this time.
The Gunter Family of Lizzie Ball's relations were among those who designed and built the first Methodist church in Roswell, according to archivist Jeanne-Marie Roberts of the Roswell Historical Society
The house itself comes to be referred to as "The Ball House." Some sources, such as the 1973 Roswell History Area Study, suggests that the home was referred to as "Ball Place."
c.1938: At least three outbuildings are built towards the rear of the property, as found on historical aerial photographs, including some structures with similar footprint sizes of the primary house itself.
c.1960: One of the outbuildings, the furthest to the rear of the property, is presumably demolished and stops showing up on historical aerials
c.1960s: An addition is known to have been added to the home; it is unclear if this addition is on the existing structure.
c.1972: Remainder of rear outbuildings are presumably demolished and stop clearly appearing on aerial photographs.
1981: The Ball Family, specifically Cora Ball, sells the home. The family occupied the residence for a confirmed 72 years.
The house becomes adaptively reused as office space in the same year. A parking lot is added to the rear of the building, in order to accommodate the office space, without altering the street-facing character of the property.
1985: The house is sold to a developer, Zachary Henderson. A rezoning is applied for and approved by
Mayor and Council, changing the zoning from an office-type zoning to a commercial-type zoning (RZ 53). Henderson claims at this time that the house was constructed by Cora Ball's grandfather, presumably a member of the Ball Family, Staff have not been able to verify that to be the case.
At the time, Henderson states the building is intended to be sold to a Roswell couple for use as a restaurant.
A rear and side addition are added to the current structure; this likely accounts for much of the existing rear/side additions of the currently existing structure.
1988: The house is included in an expansion of the Historic District (HPC 11; RZ16).
1995: The house is sold to Karl Boegner; Henderson remains a leading part of many later projects with the house.
1996 February 8: The house is approved by HPC to begin renovations to become a person public events space, with 47 parking spaces, to be known as "Founder's Hall" (HPC 02).
A zoning variance is reportedly granted on the same day, but no record of a variance approved on this date was found by Staff as of writing.
1996 February – April: The rear of the property was clear cut to expand parking to 100 standard spaces (or ~200 spaces valet parked), more than doubling the 47 spaces in then approved site plans. Developer's newsletter states that the building is attempting to be capable of 500 attendees, more than double the 125 in the then approved plans.
Neighbors and the Historic Neighborhood Preservation Society begins public opposition to the Founder's Hall project. In addition to claiming that development was out-of-scope with what was approved by HPC, neighbors claim that some HPC members acted while having a conflict-of-interest, failed to issue a Certificate of Appropriateness, and approved the application without a public hearing. The approval is appealed to Mayor & Council. The appellants are represented by Jere Wood, who later became Mayor of Roswell.
1996 March 25: Boegner, in a letter given to the City and agreed upon by Wood, agrees to replant part of the vegetated buffer on the property.
1996 April 15: Mayor & Council affirm in a public meeting that the house can be used for public event space under the zoning classifications of the time. Henderson, reportedly acting as architect for the project, spoke before Mayor & Council.
1996 June 21: A Certificate of Appropriateness is issued for HPC 02.
c.1996: The original less-than-full-height entry porch is replaced with a full-façade porch, meant to be, in the words of Henderson, "reminiscent of traditional plantation architecture." As the structure was built in c.1870, during the Reconstruction period, the home likely could never have been used as a plantation home.
2005: BZA reviews a variance request to reduce a foot buffer along the north of the property to 10 feet and increase the maximum allowable floor area ratio (FAR) from 0.5 to 0.564 (BZA 23). The variance request is withdrawn. The requirements associated with this variance request are no longer in place.
2007: BZA reviews a variance request to reduce a foot buffer along the north of the property, this variance appears to have been withdrawn (BZA 33); HPC approves a white lattice screening fence, black metal lighting posts, and a gazebo (HPC 50)
2021: HPC approves redevelopment of the site as a private club/hotel, including the addition of ten guest cottages, a pool, spa, small parking deck, and the removal of non-historic porches on the primary structure (HPC 20212669)
2022: HPC Staff approves minor changes to the proposed siding, windows, and doors (HPC 20222009).
2023: An HPC administrative application is filed for a dumpster enclosure but expires due to missed payment surpassing a year (HPC 20231848).
2025 June: The current two HPC applications are submitted to the City.
Site Plan:
The property includes a 9,558 square foot two-story historical structure, with non-historical rear and side additions, sitting on 1.73 acres of land. The building also includes a basement below the non-historic additions. The existing building has a front and rear porch, both of which are non-historic and have previously been approved by HPC for demolition (HPC 20212669).
This approval by HPC (HPC 20212669) includes the addition of 10 guest cottages, a spa building, pool, cabana bar, gardens, and a small parking deck built on the rear of the property.
Architecture:
Existing structure
Ball House/Founder's Hall (1076 Canton Street) is a primarily wood-sided side-gabled I-house style home. It has two flanking brick chimneys that protrude from the form of the house on its north and south sides. The home has non-historic side and rear additions added in 1996, which match the material appearance of the historic core of the house. A portion of the house past the initial I-house core are historical additions.
The existing building is a prime example of Greek Revival architecture in an I-House style of home. The home was originally built as a less-than-full-height-entry variant of Greek Revival structure. However, renovations to the front porch in c.1996 included the addition of a full-façade porch. The applicants have previously received HPC approval to return the porch to a historically appropriate architectural design. The roofing on the historic core of the building is side-gabled, while the roofing on the non-historic additions is partially simple-hipped and partially side-gabled. 1076 Canton Street is a relatively unique architectural style and build, while being a Reconstruction-era construction. Related examples are often Antebellum.
The building includes a front door with a full transom window and sidelights, a common element of Greek Revival structures. However, the front door, in its current appearance, does not include a door surround and lintel. This is not entirely heard of, Bulloch and Barrington Halls, both also examples of Greek Revival homes, also have simpler door surrounds and lintels.
The currently existing front porch has four imposing Doric square columns. While these specific columns are non-historic additions that date to the new porch's construction, the home has always had Doric square columns, just less significant in size.
The house has a present cornice line on its own, but the non-historic front porch makes it more distinctive. The cornice line includes cornice returns on the core historical portion of the house.
Ball House/Founder's Hall share similarities in architecture with a few other examples in the Historic District. Perhaps the closest example of this is 1002 Canton Street, built c.1900. 1002 Canton Street is also a primarily wood-sided side-gabled I-House, with later side and rear additions. However, while 1002 Canton Street is, arguably, also a Greek Revival, it lacks many of the details that Ball House/Founder's Hall does have. 1002 Canton lacks sidelights on its front door and only has a small half-circle transom window without a lintel. 1002 Canton also has columns that lack distinctive capitals.
New structure
The newly proposed structure is designed to match the existing home to a high degree. The historical core of the home is proposed to be put back together using as many of the original historical pieces as possible.
One notable exception to the changes is the return of the historical front porch, replacing the non-historic fullfaçade porch. This had been previously approved by the HPC with the approval of HPC 20212669.
The reconstruction of the non-historic rear and side additions is 2 feet taller than previously requested but is otherwise as previously approved by the HPC in the approval of HPC 20212669.
Analysis:
UDC
5.3.10.2 – Requires that commercial houses in DX provide foot side interior setbacks. There is a fenced-in area that is not very well marked on the plans, applicants should more properly denote what is going to be within this fenced area.
4.2.a
5.3.10.4 – Requires that commercial houses in DX provide 20% ground floor and upper floor transparency. Because this would be considered a new building, even if it is being rebuilt with salvaged historical materials, the current transparency requirements of the UDC must be followed. The ground-floor and upper-floor transparency are currently both approximately 12%.
10.4.4.B – Requires that no more than 1.0 foot-candles of light may cross a property line from a commercial use abutting a residential use. However, development exceeds 1.0 foot-candles on provided photometric plans.
UDC Design Guidelines
Sections 1.31, 1.35, & 1.36 – Requires that a sense of human scale should be in the design of a building, and that the ground floor of a building façade should engage with the public realm and promote pedestrian activity. The building is proposed to be rebuilt on the same scale and design as the existing structure. The existing building was built in 1870, predating automobiles, and was built to the human scale.
Page 40 – The UDC Design Guidelines provides a number of alternatives to providing transparency on the ground floor of a building. Applicants may, instead, provide architectural details, display windows, wall art, raised planting beds, or vertical trellises in order to appropriately meet the transparency requirements. These alternatives cannot be used on the upper floor.
Sections 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.17, 4.24, & 4.34 – Requires that new construction in the Historic District adhere to the traditional building alignment, spacing pattern, and setbacks of the surrounding historic context. The proposed building is designed to match the alignment and spacing pattern of the historic existing building. Therefore, no alterations are being made to the traditional building alignment, spacing patterns, or setbacks for the purpose of the new construction.
Sections 4.14, 4.18, 4.20, 4.21, 4.22, & 4.23 – Requires that façade elements and character be compatible with the surrounding historical and architectural context. While some changes may be needed later in order to meet transparency requirements, the currently proposed façade elements and character are nearly identical to the existing historic building. The primary change in appearance being proposed is the removal of the nonhistoric front porch. The front porch does not actually match the historic character or scaling of the building or its surrounding context. Therefore, the proposed changes will not only be compatible with the historic context but improve compatibility.
The noticeable increase in height of the rear and side additions does vary, and supersede, the traditional scaling of the Upper Canton Street Character Area.
Sections 5.1, 5.2, & 5.3 – Regulates the protections of historic building features and materials. This is a relatively unique circumstance, the applicants report that they intend to salvage and reuse as much of the existing historic material as possible. In order to adequately adhere to the UDC Design Guidelines, if demolition and reconstruction are approved, then the historic materials that can be salvaged must be accounted for as best as possible with a Survey and Inventory. Materials that cannot be reused should be replaced with like materials, per UDC Design Guidelines.
Section 5.31 – Requires that an addition to an historic structure be subordinate to the historic primary structure, at the very least from its primary public sightlines. Due to the proposed increase in height of the rear and side additions, this criterion will not be met. The additions are not satisfactorily subordinate to the primary historic core of the building.
However, the building is being taken apart and put back together and will be considered an entirely new building. The reconstruction of the additions is, no longer additions. They will be considered original portions of the primary structure. Therefore, assuming demolition and reconstruction is approved, this UDC Design Guideline does not apply.

Reasoning for recommendation
Staff recommend approval with conditions for this application based on the following reasons:
- If Ball House/Founder's Hall is approved to be demolished, then it should be rebuilt as closely to the previously existing structure;
- If reconstruction is approved, the building will have to follow the most current requirements of the UDC;
- If the structure is not approved to be demolished, then efforts must be made to ensure that any redevelopment protects the historic structure, while reducing the financial impacts of the renovation on the applicants.

Zoning Reviewer: Shea Dixon, Planner II, 6437, sdixon@roswellgov.com,
DX -
Downtown Mixed Use zoning
This application, as submitted, is approved for review by HPC. Final Staff recommendation to HPC will
likely use the following criteria:
-
UDC 5.3.10.2.: A commercial house in DX requires 5 foot side interior setbacks.
-
UDC 5.3.10.4.: A commercial house in DX requires 20% ground floor and upper floor transparency. As
this is a new building, and no longer a historical building under renovation, these transparency
requirements must either be met or accounted for.
-
UDC 10.4.4.B: No more than 1.0 foot-candles may cross a property line abutting a residential use.
-
UDC Design Guidelines 1.31, 1.35, & 1.36: Human-scale of building is established, as new building
matches historical scale of previous residence, and primary entrance is along primary street
-
UDC Design Guidelines p. 40: A development can be approved to have alternatives to ground floor
transparency. The addition of architectural details, display windows, wall art, raised planting bed, or
vertical trellises can be used as replacement for ground floor transparency.
-
UDC Design Guidelines 4.1: Historical network of streets and alleys are unaffected as new building is
largely being built to match historical predecessor
-
UDC Design Guidelines 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.17, 4.24, & 4.34: Traditional building alignment, spacing
pattern, setbacks, and open space patterns are maintained as new building is largely being built to
match historical predecessor.
-
UDC Design Guidelines 4.14, 4.18, 4.20, 4.21, 4.22, & 4.23: Facade character, facade elements, and
materials are compatible with surrounding houses on Upper Canton Street as new building is largely
being built to match historical predecessor.
-
UDC Design Guidelines 4.34d: Parking lot pole lights should be compatible with other proposed
lighting elements.
-
UDC Design Guidelines 5.1, 5.2, & 5.3: Original building materials must be maintained as much as
possible for the reconstruction. Materials not used should be replaced by like materials.

Although, this report will determine whether or not a tree is a specimen; it is provided as best judgment opinion. Ultimately, the governing body's (City of Roswell) arborist or representative shall determine whether a tree is classified as a specimen or not.
All specimen tree locations shall be approximate. The provided tree locations shall NOT be GPS located and in no manner shall the provided tree location plan be used or represented as a tree survey. It is the sole responsibility of the OWNER to have all tagged specimen trees located by a Certified Land Surveyor.
No warranties express or implied are made with respect to the report of aforementioned specimen trees. It is understood the OWNER makes use of this report by the ARBORIST at OWNER's sole risk and that the report is provided as best judgment opinion. In no manner does this report guarantee the life or imply any length of life span of the trees that are determined to be specimens.
Arborist Note:
Due to certain species and undesirable traits, some trees shall be considered in poor condition if the following is true. Numerous trees grown in a native setting may appear to grow as multi-trunk; however this is not desirable in most trees. Most trees that have multi-trunks at the base are usually created when two separate trees grow together or the tree branches off at an early age and they become Co-Dominate Leaders. Either scenario is an undesirable condition for most trees because they both create weak crotches, included bark and/or a prime place for debris and water to get trapped that will always cause decay. In this case these trees become a life safety issue and cannot be considered specimen trees.
- Some trees are an exception to this rule, such as, but not limited to: Crape Myrtles, Birches, Wax Myrtles, Red Buds, Fringe Trees, Dogwoods, Hollies, Cedars, Sourwoods, Sweet Bay Magnolias, Red Bays and Live Oaks.
- These are an exception because they naturally create sucker growth from the roots and/or trunk or do not typically have the life safety issues because they are not large growing trees.

One of the most common locations for the aboveground portion of a tree to fail is at the junction of two or more codominant stems. Due to the frequency of failures at this point, a study was undertaken to get a better understanding of the mechanical strength of this point and to determine if included bark reduces the strength of the union. Eighty-four codominant stems were removed from 26 felled maple trees. These crotches were securely anchored and split apart using measured force. Breaking force varied from 64 to 2,363 kg. The regression line produced from the comparison of stem diameter and force required for breaking the union when there was no included bark was Force = Diameter $$ 613 - 1388, r 2 = 0.92. When only those unions with included bark were analyzed, the regression line was Force – Diameter $$ 537 - 1285, r 2 – 0.76. There was a significant difference between the regression lines ( $p < 0.05$ ). Codominant stems that have bark trapped in the union are significantly weaker than those that do not have bark included. The differences appear to be greater with smaller-diameter stems than with larger stems.

Re: HPC Design Plan Application – Ten Seventy Six Club revised design Roswell, Georgia RPA Project No. 2021112.10
The subject property is located at 1076 Canton Street, Roswell, Georgia 30075. Historically used as an event facility, the site is being redeveloped into a private club with guest cottages and a spa. The proposed project received Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) approval on August 12, 2021, with a minor revision approved on May 31, 2022. Interior demolition was subsequently approved on December 20, 2022.
This application seeks approval for revisions to the previously approved design, responding to programmatic changes requested by the future operator and addressing unforeseen site conditions identified during demolition and investigative work.
Summary of Proposed Revisions by Area:
1. Site:
The ADA-accessible cottage has been relocated to the footprint previously assigned to the pool cabana. The original cabana and restroom functions have been reallocated into two separate structures:
- A one-story clubhouse cottage adjacent to the relocated ADA unit.
- A detached pool bar with an exterior kitchen positioned adjacent to the spa.
Historic Roswell Mill A Mill Street, Suite 200 Roswell, Georgia 30075 t 770.650.7558 f 770.650.7559
2. Landscape:
The landscape plan has been revised to accommodate the new building locations while maintaining the overall design intent and site organization of the original approval. Notable changes include modifications to the driveway layout to incorporate a concrete pedestrian path running parallel to the gravel drive for improved accessibility and circulation.
3. Front Building (Clubhouse):
The historic cottage will be reconstructed to replicate the original architectural character. Exterior detailing—including siding, soffits, and trim—will match those of the historic structure. Salvaged materials from demolition (e.g., siding, front door, and masonry) will be reused where viable; supplemental materials will be matched in profile and finish.
The rear addition retains the same footprint and general exterior appearance as previously approved. The only modification is a proposed increase in rear roof height by 3 feet to accommodate mechanical equipment on the second level. This change results in a corresponding increase in ceiling height for the rear porch at grade. All other exterior materials and finishes remain as previously approved.
4. Two-Story Cottages:
No design changes are proposed.
5. ADA Cottage:
The revised ADA unit is substantially similar to the version previously approved. The housekeeping closet located on the east end has been removed. The sliding door on the main façade has been relocated to a centered position. All exterior finishes and materials are unchanged.
6. Pool House:
A newly proposed structure housing the housekeeping room and pool restrooms. This building has a similar scale and massing to the adjacent ADA cottage and is aligned along the same axis as the guest
Historic Roswell Mill A Mill Street, Suite 200 Roswell, Georgia 30075 t 770.650.7558 f 770.650.7559
4.2.d
cottages. Exterior materials and roof forms are consistent with the architectural language of the other site structures.
7. Pool Bar:
A non-conditioned, detached structure accommodating a pool bar and outdoor kitchen. Located adjacent to the spa building and aligned with it on the site axis, this structure is designed with finishes and detailing consistent with the spa to maintain visual cohesion.
8. Spa:
North and south window openings have been relocated to accommodate interior layout revisions. The originally approved foot-high windows with clerestory glazing have been replaced with new foothigh full-height windows without clerestory elements. Access to the roof deck remains unchanged. All previously approved materials and finishes remain as originally submitted.
Conclusion:
The proposed modifications maintain the intent and character of the previously approved design while addressing operational needs and site conditions. Historic architectural integrity is preserved through material salvage and replication, and the revised site layout continues to support a cohesive, context-sensitive development aligned with the goals of the Historic Preservation Commission and the City of Roswell.
