HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION
|
Minutes note: Mr. Tim Askin said this project is coming back from a little over a year ago; different developer but substantially similar project. There is proposed a new, second floor wing; they are restoring all the windows. The site plan isn't under HPC review, just the building itself. The Dept. of City Development/City Plan Commission is reviewing the site plan. They are extending out the back on the second floor for additional egress and meeting space. The extension is set back from the street and reasonable for the intended use. He would like to see a few more windows on the second floor just for additional light and the new side entrance still seems a little too vertical. There will be false windows, covered with shutters, on the rear facade. Staff recommends approval with conditions in the staff report.
Thomas Stachowiak - Stack Design Group - the banquet hall was shrunk to half and that space will be used for a sports bar.
Mr. Jarosz asked about the use of cream city brick and how the new yellow-painted extension would work with the existing cream city brick. The space will be a restaurant, sports bar and banquet space combination. The local alderman, Scott Spiker, supports this.
