LANDMARK PRESERVATION COMMISSION
September 26, 2012
STAFF REPORT
TOPIC: 711 Remington Street/Remington Annex, project update
STAFF: Josh Weinberg, Preservation Planner
PRESENTER: Per Hogestad, architectural consultant
BACKGROUND: Architect Per Hogestad has been working with the owners of properties at
705, 711, and 715 Remington Street to design a multi -family housing project that both meets
the needs of the property owners and also complies with the City's Land Use Code and the
Secretary of the Interior's Standards.
On September 12, 2012, Mr. Hogestad met with Courtney Levingston, City Planner, Bud Frick,
LPC member, and Historic Preservation staff to discuss preliminary project designs and garner
feedback for a later presentation to the Commission. Staff and Commission member Frick were
comfortable with the direction the project is heading following the meeting. Mr. Hogestad is
here tonight to present his revised designs.
At the September 12th design meeting, Mr. Hogestad received the following feedback:
• Elevation drawings should show the context of the street — specifically the existing
buildings to the north and south of the project area.
• Existing footprints of the buildings at 705 and 715 Remington Street should be shown for
reference to the proposed buildings.
• Explore options that could break up the verticality of the front -facing three-story portions
of the proposed buildings at 705 and 715 Remington Street.
LPC DIRECTION REQUESTED: After listening to Mr. Hogestad's presentation and viewing
the revised project drawings, provide comments to the project consultant as it relates to
compliance with Land Use Code Section 3.4.7 and the Secretary of the Interior's Standards.
