As a donor to the project, I thought I’d weigh in. For proper operation, the array must face roughly south so it is as directly exposed to the sun as possible. A northern exposure would render the installation ineffective. By clicking here, you will find an article that discusses this. The legion hall main roof has two exposures and I believe that the one toward Water Street facing SSE would be the most effective. I expect that the installer would likely confirm this. Thanks for your consideration and regards, Dale Dale Dell’Ario 5333 – 9th Avenue NE Seattle WA 98105 (206) 852-4877 From:Vann, Nicholas (DAHP) To:John McDonagh Cc:Borth, Holly (DAHP); Jolivette, Stephanie (DAHP) Subject:RE: Admiralty Apts new addition Date:Friday, October 2, 2020 10:53:44 AM Attachments:image001.png Hey John, I asked around the office for input, too, as a groupthink. We have a general consensus that we appreciate the attempt to locate the panels on the flat roof on the south-ish side, but don’t have much concern over placing the panels on the sloped roof as long as the panels are low-profile and are attached parallel to the roof plane. There certainly is some sensitivity being in the NHLD, but we would accept this as proposed. Thanks for reaching out!

PT has an interesting proposal we’d like your input on. The American Legion is proposing solar panels on the Water St. facing (i.e. south facing) roof plane of their 1941 building in the NHLD. I’ve asked about putting them on the south roof roof plane or the flat parts, but that won’t generate the production needed to meet cost-to-benefit expectations. Thoughts? Any feedback is welcome.
