Permit #: 22-03702-HDLC
Description: Renovation of four commercial buildings (1001-1015 Canal) including new rooftop additions.
ARC Recommendations:
2/15/22: The ARC requested additional information on the new rooftop additions, specifically the overall height of each of the additions and the setback from the building façade. To comply with HDLC guidelines, all rooftop additions should be set back at least 1.5 times the total height of the addition. The ARC also agreed that the entrance doors at 1005 Canal St. should not be removed and replaced with fixed windows, as this building makes the strongest architectural statement and the marquee clearly denotes this area as a main entry. Without people coming in and out of the building in this location, it will only increase loitering and additional activity in the alcove. The ARC strongly encouraged retention of an entrance at the existing 1005 Canal storefront location.
