With careful treatment, Waxahachie’s residential historic resources
will continue to promote the unique historic atmosphere that
attracts residents and visitors to the community. This chapter
provides guidelines for the treatment and rehabilitation of existing
historic resources in Waxahachie’s residential historic districts. It
begins with general guidelines that are applicable to any historic
residential building, regardless of style. These guidelines cover a
wide range of topics and address basic maintenance and repair,
as well as replacement and reconstruction. Guidelines for topics
related to the historic resource, including additions, site features 110 S. Hawkins Street
and special considerations, are also included. Prior to beginning
a project to preserve, repair or replace a component of a historic
resource, sufficient research should be conducted to understand
the building elements in their original condition. This information is
crucial to understanding the property and should be used to guide
the proposed work.
