The Historic Preservation Board moved to approve the Certificate of Appropriateness at the meeting on November 7, 2022 with the following conditions:
1. Noting that many of the buildings are enclosed and enveloped within portions of site that will be demolished, staff recommend HPB request a status report that contains documentation of the demolitions of buildings 1, 2, 3 and 4 after the requested partial demolition is completed.
2. It is recommended that the façade on Ford Street be rehabilitated to the extent feasible, especially the exposed red brick; multi-light wood windows; arched brick window hoods; and denticulated brick cornice.
3. Additionally, it is recommended that materials extracted from these demolitions be used adaptively on new construction projects on the site, if is environmentally safe to do so.
4. Adaptive reuse should incorporate the rehabilitation of the following character-defining features: exposed red brick, multi-light wood windows, arched brick window hoods, denticulated brick cornice, concrete exteriors, multi-light industrial steel windows, recessed window bays, and exposed concrete structural elements.
5. New additions or alterations should be complementary and compatible with the historic materials, features, size, scale and proportion, and massing of retained historic buildings constructed during the period of significance. They should also be clearly differentiated and expressive of a contemporary architectural language in order to protect the integrity of the historic fabric and ensure clarity in the definition of old and new.
6. The Applicant use U.S. Department of the Interior for the Treatment of Historic Properties- Secretary of the Interior Standard for Rehabilitation when rehabilitating any portions of Buildings 1, 2, 3, and 4.
