February 15, 2022 Meeting:

• Roof terrace is not successful in proposed configuration. A larger parapet or cornice could accommodate this detail but cannot be roofing getting cut off.

• Proportions of the front façade double gallery need further study.

• Perhaps accommodations for the required program are better suited for a more modern approach rather than traditional vocabulary throughout. A little more freedom to experiment in this area of Chartres Street.

• Transoms above windows is not a typical condition and should be eliminated. Uneven sashes for windows do not work for the style.

• Particular attention should be paid to the right-side corner property elevation and what is visible from the public right-of-way.
