HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION
| ADOPTED
Minutes note: Ms. Hatala provided members with a 1979 survey photo of the building and in 1995 new signage was installed. The "saw sign" was installed in 1996 and a lot of the original details still exist in terms of the large windows and leaded glass transoms. The new tenant will be operating as a restaurant and the tenant wants openable windows. The windows will open as one unit and be secured at the ceiling. The bulkhead will still remain. The windows should be clear glass and not tinted. Staff recommends approval.
Joan Sweet -architect
Elias Chedid - Harry's Bar and Grill owner
Christopher Adams - building owner
Ald. Nik Kovac - he supports this.
Ms. Sweet said the windows will be insulated and aluminum and a pivot point about a third way down with manual opening with hydraulics. The windows will be made by Milwaukee Plate and Glass. There will be an aluminum frame around the windows.
The ballister will be added back to the top of the roof (the owner has stainless steel ballisters in the basement) and that work and the apartment work will be a separate COA.
They would like to retain the saw with "Harry's" going down the saw, rather than "Hardware".
