The Kenton Downtown Historical District is architecturally diverse within an overall pattern of harmony and continuity. The maintenance of the scale and quality of design is essential for new construction in the District. Guidelines for new construction focus on general rather than specific design elements in order to encourage architectural innovation and establish continuity. All new construction is reviewed in terms of massing, rhythm , materials and details, building elements and site. Generally, all structures should be completed in these categories in conformity with surrounding. structures. Reproduction of historic designs and details is artificial and expensive and is recommended only for some in-fill cases or small scale construction.
