The alteration will not create a false sense of historical <br /> development by adding conjectural features or elements from other historic <br /> properties or time periods. <br /> (3) Changes to the property that have acquired historic significance in their own <br /> right are retained and preserved to the extent possible. <br /> (4) Distinctive materials, features, finishes, construction techniques, or examples of <br /> skilled craftsmanship that characterize the property are retained to the extent <br /> possible. <br /> (5) Deteriorated historic features are repaired rather than replaced.
