5INTRODUCTION Architectural Setting The neighborhood encompassed by the Eau Gallie Historic District boundaries has remained stable over the past few decades. Interest in revitalization of existing housing stock, especially those closer to the water, has helped to ensure the long-term viability of the neighborhood. Some renovations and new infill structures, however, have occurred with disregard for the scale and character of the neighborhood. Of primary concern is the potential redevelopment of the smaller sites in the district. Due to the smaller size of some of the homes and the optimal location of the district in downtown, they are prime targets for teardowns. Similarly, significant alterations to some of the larger homes could quickly change the character of the neighborhood. With these issues in mind, this document intends to provide property owners with the tools necessary to undertake the rehabilitation or expansion of existing “contributing” structures (please refer to the Procedures section for definition and applicability). The first step in determining the extent and nature of any rehabilitation, remodel or expansion of an existing contributing structure is determining its architectural style and historic significance. The review of the Florida Master Site Files for the Eau Gallie Historic District concluded that the most common styles found in this historic section of the City are Frame Vernacular, Masonry Vernacular and Ranch. Other styles found in the historic district include Minimal Traditional, Craftsman Bungalow and Neo-Classical Revival. The following subsections describe the architectural styles present in the district and the typical elements of each style.
