ADU / accessory dwelling in Enge

Enge is Stadt Zürich — Kreis 2's klassizismus 1830-1880 submarket. Enge holds Zurich's densest cluster of Belle-Époque Stadtvilla on Mythenquai and Seestrasse — roughly 60% of the Wohnstock between Belvoirpark and Bahnhof Enge is Denkmalschutz-eingetragen, and any fenster + fassade work is approved only with original-profile Holzfenster reproductions.

What a adu / accessory dwelling project looks like here

Enge holds Zurich's densest cluster of Belle-Époque Stadtvilla on Mythenquai and Seestrasse — roughly 60% of the Wohnstock between Belvoirpark and Bahnhof Enge is Denkmalschutz-eingetragen, and any fenster + fassade work is approved only with original-profile Holzfenster reproductions.

Because Enge sits behind the federal ISOS Aussichtsschutz axis on the Mythenquai-See cohort, even a Wintergarten Anbau on the Hofseite needs a Sichtachsen-Studie — the AfB regularly mandates a 1:200 Modell + 3D-Visualisierung for any volume change.

Zurich ADUs — detached, attached, and conversion paths — scoped against Hochbauamt Zurich + SIA 380/1 + KBOB setback + height + parking variances. In Enge specifically, klassizismus 1830-1880 stock means adu / accessory dwelling scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology. Baily's Zurich scoping flow factors isos-inventar mythenquai and denkmalpflegeverordnung into the estimate before a contractor is involved.

Origin

Who is Baily?

Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.

He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.

That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.

Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
