Previous ARC Recommendations:Â
04/18/23: The ARC voted to defer the application for additional review. The ARC also agreed that:
The proposed elevator addition and roof changes are substantial for the existing building given its Significant rating and despite the limited visibility of this area from the street.
The applicant should consider alternative strategies, such as the rearrangement of the interior layout so the new elevator would not need to extend to the 4th floor and to reduce its overall impact on the existing historic building fabric.
The proposed rear stair changes are appropriate, but the solution for the brick wall at the rear of the site could be more inventive.
The applicant should continue to study and refine the proposed design and consult with SHPO for additional feedback prior to the next ARC review.
