Previous ARC Recommendations:
05/16/23: The ARC voted to defer this application for additional review. The ARC stated that the proposed gallery was too heavy and overwhelming on the street. They recommended changing the gallery on the second through fourth floors to balconies with a smaller depth than the gallery on the first floor. They also recommended removing the double column to a single column and lightening the horizontal elements of the gallery/balconies. The ARC stated that the proportions of the transom relative to the granite header should be further explored, as well as the proportions of the storefront glass. The smaller pilasters at the storefront should be further articulated.
