Default Hoophouse/cold frame ideas. Please. (pic heavy)

Holidays are over. Back to work. I am sure many of you (Z6 +) are planning to start seeds for 2007 soon.

I am thinking of building a hoophouse to gain maybe a month or more extra growing time or to get some early tomatoes earlier.

Here are some of my considerations (limitations):

1. I only have room in the front lawn for about 30” x 15’.
2. Being in a residential area, the hoophouse has to look decent, I don’t want neighbors to complain.
3. I need to have the hoophouse removable once the weather gets warm. I don’t have a lot of storage space, so whatever components used have to be minimum.

I ‘d appreciate any ideas and advice. Thank you.
