For building architectural styles indicative of the early 19th century structures, six-over-six or four-over four sashes are appropriate. For styles indicative of the late 19th century buildings, four-over-four, two-over-two, or one-over-one sash windows are recommended. For styles indicative of the early 20th century designs, one-over-one sashes should be installed. Windows should have distinct meeting rails and have the appearance of being operable. Do not install windows with snap-on mullions. • Design windows to match the historic materials found on nearby buildings, but composite materials that have the appearance of wood are appropriate for windows, stops, jambs, and trim. • Recess window openings on masonry buildings and use window openings with raised surrounds on frame buildings. • Avoid reflective or opaque treatments. • Determine if shutters are compatible with the architectural style of the building. If so, use wood shutters that appear operable and fit the reveal of the window precisely.
