Re: Rabbi Gorelik-modular questions
Design considerations would include, in part, the location of the addition on the historic building, the
dimensions of the addition, the roof pitch of the historic building and the proposed modular, the exterior
siding and roofing materials (i.e., how does the profile of the wood siding compare to the historic wood
siding - is it wider, and if so, how much wider?) The closer the appearance of the modular is to the
historic, the quicker and easier the approval.
What would likely be the most efficient and effective method of providing the Rabbi with design
considerations would be for him to provide us the details (cut sheets or product sheets would likely work)
for modulars he is considering, and a site plan that shows the location of the addition. This then could be
reviewed by the Landmarks Preservation Commission as a complimentary review. The next Commission
meetings are on October 14 and 28, and Nov 11, and he just needs to contact either Emma or me to get
scheduled.
Alternatively, once we have the information and can get a sense of what the Rabbi is looking for, staff can
review his plans and suggests the "tweaks" we may want in order for the modular to be compatible.

Karen, could you meet again or outline in writing some details regarding the modular design criteria that
would be allowed on the site.
thanx, steve
