Residential Guidelines
The Design Guidelines for Residential Historic Districts (DGRHD) encourage a goal of quality development in Boise’s historic districts. Homeowners can accomplish this goal through alterations and new construction which are congruous (harmonious) with the character of the neighborhood. Design principles embodied in these Guidelines should encourage creative solutions that will enhance the character of a neighborhood. These Guidelines incorporate prior guidelines that covered alterations and modifications and introduce design parameters for new construction.
