Project Scope
821 Water Street Window Replacement
The scope of this project is to replace the existing five windows on the south side of the
building and one window on the east wall of the building.
The reason for replacing the windows on the south wall is for protection against sea
water intrusion. The wood framing around the windows and window frames and jam are
saturated and rotted from salt water penetration. The salt water penetrates around the
window frames and through the operable awning windows, glazing and frame
completely.
All of the operable window sash hardware corrodes with the constant salt water
environment, especially during the winter storms. The existing vinyl windows are
approximately twenty years old and installed unprofessionally. The nail flanges were not
flashed with Vycor or polyurethane waterproofing systems but solely mortared in for
sealing from the elements. No casing was used.
We will use current and standard water -proofing systems: Vycor flashing and Vulkem
polyurethane sealant around the window frames and AZEK plastic decking as exterior
window casing, painted to match wall color.
The windows will be changed from operable to fixed, to minimize salt water intrusion
and increase the longevity of the windows. The middle window of the five will change
size from 34x30 to match those of the other windows (34x52). Historically, that space
was a door opening which was patched closed with the smaller window installed three
inches below the other windows and it has been leaking for years. We think it best to
correct the visual issue by making all the windows uniform in size and elevation and
repair the water intrusion.
The existing windows are tan in color. We propose painting the sashes PT36-B HC-71
Hasbrouck Brown from the HDC pre -approved sash color palette.
The window on the east side of the building has been replaced. The existing window had
an old rusted steel fan with a pushout cover and aluminum window. We replaced it with
a 4'-0 x 4'-0 vinyl sliding window set at 43" from floor. We will paint the sash with HC-
71 as well.

2024 Comprehensive Plan
Historic Preservation Committee
Member comments from Special Meeting on 04-23-2024
Below, context behind suggested goals and policies are provided in red text.
Group discussion notes from meeting are provided in black.
1. Context statement., Codify, bolster, enrich, and develop (as necessary) the existing Historic
Preservation Code/Guidelines to reduce individual, case -by -case review by I PC where
o Goal: Maximize administrative review through use of the guidelines to provide
greater clarity for designers/applicants/etc.
■ Continue to develop guidelines for subtopics.
■ Periodically review existing guidelines to make sure content and language
remains current [This activity to be added to workplan].
2. Goal: Work with property owners within the commercial historic districts to promote and
encourage accessibility equity through alterations to historic structures while following
preservation best practices.
o Implementation: During the permit process, applicants prepare a document
addressing universal access: what accessibility measures currently exist on their
property, what steps are taken to address current non -conformity, why steps were or
were not taken to improve access.
o Definitions for greater context:
■ Definition of Universal Design: "The design and composition of an
environment so that it can be accessed, understood, and used to the
greatest extent possible by all people regardless of their age, size, ability or
disability."
■ Definition of Equitable use: The design is useful and marketable to people
with diverse abilities.
■ Difference between ADA and Universal Design: "ADA requirements are
regulations that dictate how spaces must be designed to accommodate
disabled users, while universal design is an approach where designers think
about how a space can accommodate everyone, regardless of age or ability."
3. Context statement. Education about district, murals, historical items, etc.
o Goal: Increase outreach efforts to educate the Public regarding CoPT's National
Historic Landmark districts
■ Distribution of information in passive contexts: ex. In monthly city flyer,
quarterly reports, or utility bill. Information may include maps paired with
Literature.
■ Could be combined with the universal access commentary (see comment
#2).
■ The intent of this goal is to provide greater education for those living within
the district and provide direction to available resources.
c Add "Historic Preservation" link to the CoPT website under the Community
Development on main directory page for direct access to HPC information.
4. Contexts "Demolition by Neglect" verbiage, housing element -T 7.30.400.
o Monica Mader and Richard Berg to develop verbiage regarding Demolition by
Neglect.
■ Intent: Empower the city to intervene
5. Goal: Establish low interest loan program that targets residential properties in the Historic
Districts
o Funding ideas:
■ Similar to the Commercial -only Community Block Grant
■ Could money come from extra LTAC funds?
o Goal intent: Preventative measure (before demolition by neglect) for restoring
historic residences within the district. This strategy could reduce the economic
burden of older home maintenance and make housing stock in Uptown more
accessible to lower income property owners. Provides an incentive for preserving a
historic residence.
6. Policy: Encourage exterior lighting guidelines for Residential Districts.
o Intent: as increasing density becomes a firm direction for the City, exterior lighting
strategies are becoming ever more important for neighborhoods and friendly
communities.
7. Contexts HPC Committee was directed to provide feedback on the Comprehensive Plan's
"Transportation Element" and provide suggestions as they relate to NHL districts
o Encourage more Ferries/buses
o HPC recommends furthering the development of the Parking Management Plan
■ Enforce parking time limits to encourage biking or park and ride transit
options
■ Increase the operating hours for busses
o Make interim parking standards permanent, i.e. no onsite parking in residential
neighborhoods
