Okay, there's maybe that photograph of a 115 00:06:37,019 --> 00:06:39,850 street view and there's the photography place, and maybe 116 00:06:39,850 --> 00:06:42,069 that box that's on the roof I'm just not sure how 117 00:06:42,069 --> 00:06:45,000 descriptive it is is of that condition, 118 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,430 which looks a little like to me like it may have even been 119 00:06:48,430 --> 00:06:51,779 glass on top but I'm not really sure no it's dark here so 120 00:06:51,779 --> 00:06:55,139 there's that's what was going on around the turn of the 121 00:06:55,139 --> 00:06:56,000 century. 122 00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,389 Now I just threw this photo in to get you thinking about 123 00:07:00,389 --> 00:07:05,230 this is an unknown streetscape, but about window openings 124 00:07:05,230 --> 00:07:10,000 and door openings on building facades around that time. 125 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:14,269 Now this is the north side of the square with the College 126 00:07:14,269 --> 00:07:19,060 of Industrial Arts there in the back the CIA. And you again 127 00:07:19,060 --> 00:07:23,529 you see our, our typical facades here in Denton at that 128 00:07:23,529 --> 00:07:28,000 time most of these have a little vestibule or windows on 129 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,000 the side here. 130 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:38,449 But I wanted to just think about that so in 1901, we, we 131 00:07:38,449 --> 00:07:44,000 see have two story building there. So that's the building 132 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:44,000 that eventually is going to burn here's 1907. 133 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:48,129 And here it's interesting that in 1917 they're referencing 134 00:07:48,129 --> 00:07:51,519 that we've improved our firefighting capacity with this 135 00:07:51,519 --> 00:07:54,899 descriptive that's on the Sanborn map that we have to full 136 00:07:54,899 --> 00:07:58,360 pied full paid men living at the station three part time or 137 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,000 five I can't quite read the number. 138 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,439 And one American La France six cylinder something 139 00:08:03,439 --> 00:08:07,509 horsepower combination pumper pumps the chemicals and has 140 00:08:07,509 --> 00:08:11,339 the hose, and then one two horse something hose reel and 141 00:08:11,339 --> 00:08:15,319 two horses on a number 230 and, and then one other La 142 00:08:15,319 --> 00:08:22,000 France combination trucks so we were ready in 1917. 143 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:28,459 Then, this is that streetscape around 1917 again, and our 144 00:08:28,459 --> 00:08:31,000 building is right here. 145 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,519 And here's a photograph from about that time of the south 146 00:08:34,519 --> 00:08:38,070 side of the square. So you see this is before we demolish 147 00:08:38,070 --> 00:08:41,000 this bank that became the Wells Fargo bank. 148 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:45,220 And then there's that facade. And so it was the 26 fire 149 00:08:45,220 --> 00:08:49,110 that took down a lot of these, these buildings, so our 150 00:08:49,110 --> 00:08:53,419 building then had this second story, and I think that this, 151 00:08:53,419 --> 00:08:56,000 whatever's left right in here. 152 00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:01,820 The, for the, the, the side walls of the front opening are 153 00:09:01,820 --> 00:09:07,649 probably what's there today under the current structure so 154 00:09:07,649 --> 00:09:12,000 here's a little more closer look at that. 155 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,570 And of course I guess this second Julie knows better than 156 00:09:15,570 --> 00:09:18,740 me I think this was damaged in the fire and then they 157 00:09:18,740 --> 00:09:22,450 decided not to put it back. But this lower portion is what 158 00:09:22,450 --> 00:09:26,000 you see there today at the, at the ice cream store. 159 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,000 So here is 26. 160 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,149 And so this must be just prior to the fire, because all 161 00:09:33,149 --> 00:09:36,440 this would have been damaged now usually they'll mark in 162 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:40,000 here that there's fire damage or destroyed buildings. 163 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:46,570 And in your notes, you have this description, which has to 164 00:09:46,570 --> 00:09:49,230 do with when it was landmarked in 81 this history was 165 00:09:49,230 --> 00:09:52,549 written. So it says various tenants occupied the building 166 00:09:52,549 --> 00:09:56,990 through 1926, when the second floor was again ravaged by 167 00:09:56,990 --> 00:09:58,000 fire reconstruction 168 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:14,000 repair amounting to $5,500 was completed between 26 and 29. 169 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:14,259 And the burn joints in the building shell indicate that at 170 00:10:14,259 --> 00:10:14,490 this moment in its history the building became a one story 171 00:10:14,490 --> 00:10:14,799 structure in 1940 limo dress shop occupied the building and 172 00:10:14,799 --> 00:10:17,000 an art deco storefront was constructed. 173 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:21,539 The mode was followed by the collegiate shop and then by Bo 174 00:10:21,539 --> 00:10:26,230 Mars, from whom the present owners purchased the building 175 00:10:26,230 --> 00:10:28,000 in 1980. 176 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,440 And so that's that tax image of the storefront. And again 177 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,799 so here I think what what's happened is they've skinned it 178 00:10:34,799 --> 00:10:38,419 with possibly that that product that's something like glass 179 00:10:38,419 --> 00:10:42,419 , it's a that we see some of that on the west side of the 180 00:10:42,419 --> 00:10:44,000 square still. 181 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:48,519 I think that your original brick would have been under here 182 00:10:48,519 --> 00:10:53,000 and under here and then a stucco maybe was applied here. 183 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:57,000 Here's just another angle on that around in the 40s. 184 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:02,000 And the Duke and Ayers building hasn't been altered yet. 185 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,029 It's an image yet just a little bit later because now we 186 00:11:05,029 --> 00:11:08,379 have the collegiate shop and it looks like they've painted. 187 00:11:08,379 --> 00:11:11,340 You can kind of see that little brick detail it's still 188 00:11:11,340 --> 00:11:14,240 bumping out there but it may have been painted back it 189 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,000 looks a little darker below here. 190 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,399 This is an image also about that time because the, the 191 00:11:20,399 --> 00:11:23,000 department stores haven't changed. 192 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,000 And it was an early. 193 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:31,000 Looks like every Saturday on the square currently. 194 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,000 Same vibes. 195 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,440 And so here it is it's the Ellington bar back here. So we 196 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:42,000 've landmark this building right around this time. 197 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:46,429 And this is again where I get to, I'm, if we were landmark 198 00:11:46,429 --> 00:11:51,139 ing a building with a facade from 80, it makes more sense 199 00:11:51,139 --> 00:11:55,419 that we were paying attention to the, to the site, and 200 00:11:55,419 --> 00:11:59,899 which makes me think that the not would make the owner feel 201 00:11:59,899 --> 00:12:04,580 very good but the work in 2012 and where we got a little, a 202 00:12:04,580 --> 00:12:06,000 little concerned about this facade, 203 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,840 I'm not sure that was the best way to go so here was it 204 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,000 also interesting because here we have that. 205 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:15,830 That new facade under construction that happens in this 206 00:12:15,830 --> 00:12:17,000 building. 207 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,000 And there's a night shot. 208 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:25,330 I don't think I'd let my children go to that bar it just 209 00:12:25,330 --> 00:12:27,000 looks creepy in that. 210 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,820 It looks a little prettier here, the snow and about the 211 00:12:31,820 --> 00:12:34,000 same time there it is. 212 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:38,940 And this is the 1996 historic resource survey that the 213 00:12:38,940 --> 00:12:43,679 Texas Historic Commission paid grant for, and there's that 214 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:45,000 that beside. 215 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,120 Now, these are, this is a recent photograph taken from the 216 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,559 inside looking towards the front of the building. And what 217 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:55,169 I want to call out is that these this very nice original 218 00:12:55,169 --> 00:12:58,860 brick condition I mean I don't know if it's the original 219 00:12:58,860 --> 00:13:02,000 brick but it's old brick that's in good condition. 220 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:06,000 You see it on both sides. And this. 221 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:11,000 There's a lentil here which may have had a facade above it. 222 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,000 Getting a little closer to that. 223 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:17,000 You can see that I'm the project at that they're proposing, 224 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,600 as you'll see will allow people to actually see some of 225 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:24,360 this, just from walking down the sidewalk and so here's 226 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:25,000 that. 227 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,879 And what I'm saying is, I think was untouched and if you 228 00:13:28,879 --> 00:13:32,000 look a little closer at that brick work. 229 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:37,620 And you see the edges finished of the brick very nicely all 230 00:13:37,620 --> 00:13:43,000 the way up on both of those openings from the inside. 231 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:47,129 And this is the, the other side of the east side edge of 232 00:13:47,129 --> 00:13:51,000 the same, same building same openings there. 233 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:55,659 This is what it looks like inside and has these skylights 234 00:13:55,659 --> 00:13:58,000 and original walls. 235 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:02,299 And I understand I saw in the history here that the floor 236 00:14:02,299 --> 00:14:07,059 was reconditioned was resurfaced in the 80s I think when 237 00:14:07,059 --> 00:14:09,000 the bar was created. 238 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:15,750 So, in my recommendation, and in talking to the owners and 239 00:14:15,750 --> 00:14:21,149 the contractors who are here this evening. We're curious as 240 00:14:21,149 --> 00:14:21,600 to what you might find back behind here so this is the 241 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:22,000 building to the left of it. 242 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,000 This is our building here. 243 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:36,320 And that stucco is there's probably maybe a laugh there and 244 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:41,000 some original brick. And then this layer is this on top of 245 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:41,000 the black glass surface or is this that was destroyed and 246 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:41,000 then something else was put we really can't know at this 247 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:41,000 time. 248 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,000 So, the request. 249 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,269 How to miss, okay, let me I'm sorry that that slides out of 250 00:14:47,269 --> 00:14:50,000 order so here's what we're proposing to do. 251 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,379 The owner is proposing. Now it's important to note that 252 00:14:53,379 --> 00:14:56,700 this is a C of a ahead of a building permit. So your sign 253 00:14:56,700 --> 00:15:00,480 ordinances, and your, your building code things to question 254 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,379 still need to be answered but in general this is the 255 00:15:03,379 --> 00:15:05,000 concept that they want to 256 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:10,019 go forward with, which is to remove the, the front of the 257 00:15:10,019 --> 00:15:15,220 building. And I'm, I think it's back, you'll have to ask 258 00:15:15,220 --> 00:15:20,080 them that question I believe we're still leaving. If we 259 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:21,350 have an opening in here I'm not sure where that I don't see 260 00:15:21,350 --> 00:15:22,000 that detail very well maybe 261 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,460 in the next in the plans photo. So here is just an 262 00:15:25,460 --> 00:15:29,509 elevation of the. Those are the those which you see a lot 263 00:15:29,509 --> 00:15:33,460 these days are on the east side of barley and board kind of 264 00:15:33,460 --> 00:15:37,000 type, aluminum frame glass folding doors. 265 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,860 This sign condition here is very similar to what we saw in 266 00:15:40,860 --> 00:15:45,000 the 40s limoed image this is a little bit different. 267 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,149 Now here you're looking into so this is the floor space 268 00:15:48,149 --> 00:15:51,580 that would be entry, you would enter here is actually what 269 00:15:51,580 --> 00:15:54,870 I'm saying is it looks like the brick is there on the sides 270 00:15:54,870 --> 00:15:59,000 that you can ask for some clarity there but it looks like 271 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:00,000 that's there. 272 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:04,500 So here's a kind of a vestibule opening and the actual 273 00:16:04,500 --> 00:16:09,429 entry to the building will be inside, and they propose to 274 00:16:09,429 --> 00:16:13,960 have a little counter here to serve guests out here in 275 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:15,000 front. 276 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,399 And here that is in plan on the floor plan. So here's the 277 00:16:18,399 --> 00:16:20,000 front of the building. 278 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,000 And those doors that fold. 279 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,639 And then the actual entry into the conditions part of the 280 00:16:26,639 --> 00:16:29,000 part of the building and the bar. 281 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:32,929 I'm recommending, I've met with the with them based on my 282 00:16:32,929 --> 00:16:36,720 under, you know my understanding of this building and 283 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:40,929 looking at what we have about our landmark. To me it's not 284 00:16:40,929 --> 00:16:45,250 the 1980s facade that we were concerned with when we 285 00:16:45,250 --> 00:16:46,000 landmarked it. 286 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,960 I think it was that we were concerned with the site and the 287 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,679 history of the building and if we look at the National 288 00:16:53,679 --> 00:16:57,899 Register nomination, and that was list of alterations all 289 00:16:57,899 --> 00:17:00,000 the way to 1980. 290 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,529 And I think that's a good example of how we're going to be 291 00:17:03,529 --> 00:17:07,269 able to come down the sidewalk and to see original brick I 292 00:17:07,269 --> 00:17:11,069 think if we do this carefully. We will not alter or destroy 293 00:17:11,069 --> 00:17:14,930 any historic fabric in this building, because the 80s 294 00:17:14,930 --> 00:17:16,000 facade. 295 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,799 And the way that's framed in there's not going to be much 296 00:17:18,799 --> 00:17:20,000 integrity in there. 297 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,000 Just in that Ellington facade. 298 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:30,150 I think that the sign and all other codes will be met. And 299 00:17:30,150 --> 00:17:32,420 then the contractor said that he would like to, and the 300 00:17:32,420 --> 00:17:34,809 owner, if I understand correctly, they would like to see 301 00:17:34,809 --> 00:17:37,279 what happens as they're exposing that and see whether the 302 00:17:37,279 --> 00:17:39,000 under the stucco there's some original brick 303 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,450 that might be able to be exposed, and then the terrazzo 304 00:17:42,450 --> 00:17:45,950 floor that you see in the collegiate image you can see the 305 00:17:45,950 --> 00:17:49,480 edge of the trial floor there now. What is that going to 306 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,930 look like when you pull that entry out because that sure 307 00:17:52,930 --> 00:17:56,000 would be nice to have polish up and see that 308 00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:03,000 original collegiate or limo limo limo entry there. 309 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:07,769 So that's, I would ask that the just be that they allow me 310 00:18:07,769 --> 00:18:12,549 to consult with them as we do that work and determine what 311 00:18:12,549 --> 00:18:14,000 can be saved. 312 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,900 Those are my recommendations on the building. Are there any 313 00:18:17,900 --> 00:18:20,000 questions. 314 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:27,000 Okay. 315 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:42,000 The opening that we now see as entering the restroom. 316 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:46,950 New doors, this lighting would kind of be aluminum glass, I 317 00:18:46,950 --> 00:18:51,599 don't have them closed, the owner may have a set with them 318 00:18:51,599 --> 00:18:55,000 but you, john I'm sorry I should have kept another. 319 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,400 See this frame here this is a probably it's probably an 320 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:02,279 Allen an anodized aluminum frame with glass, and those are 321 00:19:02,279 --> 00:19:05,000 going to accordion together and close. 322 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,700 So, you would see that across to the middle here, and you 323 00:19:08,700 --> 00:19:12,279 see this brick here this is the existing brick on the 324 00:19:12,279 --> 00:19:15,900 interior, which is quite beautiful as you saw in the images 325 00:19:15,900 --> 00:19:20,000 so I just think that for people coming down the sidewalk. 326 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:24,099 You're going to have a more of a historic feeling and then 327 00:19:24,099 --> 00:19:27,730 the other thing I didn't mention here the period of 328 00:19:27,730 --> 00:19:32,000 significance for our national registered district. 329 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:41,000 I had the dates, it's there around 1860 or 80 to 1940. 330 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:45,619 So again the Ellington facade doesn't even fit within the 331 00:19:45,619 --> 00:19:50,339 period of significance on our historic district. It, not 332 00:19:50,339 --> 00:19:52,640 that this gets it there, but this doesn't do any again in 333 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,000 nothing was should be done destructive to the original 334 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,000 fabric. 335 00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:00,130 If we are to discover under here that there's an 336 00:20:00,130 --> 00:20:05,490 opportunity to expose original brick, then we'll be closer 337 00:20:05,490 --> 00:20:10,559 to a contributing building I believe, then we would have 338 00:20:10,559 --> 00:20:12,000 otherwise. 339 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:19,269 What I believe is to paint this surface, if, if it can't be 340 00:20:19,269 --> 00:20:25,259 removed but the contractors are here and they can clarify 341 00:20:25,259 --> 00:20:26,000 that. 342 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:42,109 I have some questions for the owner.

So, the idea is simply to have the doors. The 368 00:22:14,140 --> 00:22:16,720 way it's going to work out is that those doors will be able 369 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,000 to retract completely. 370 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:22,039 So we'll have basically three options will have double 371 00:22:22,039 --> 00:22:26,059 doors that will be able to open up on fairly good weather 372 00:22:26,059 --> 00:22:29,000 and go into that inside vestibule. 373 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,789 What we're calling our indoor outdoor patio, Chris say it's 374 00:22:32,789 --> 00:22:36,599 basically taking our current vestibule and expanding it out 375 00:22:36,599 --> 00:22:38,000 to the footprint. 376 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:42,400 And I don't know how to work this thing so can't get there 377 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:46,119 but you might be able to look at it in one of these 378 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:47,000 pictures. 379 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:51,809 So, you can see like this would end up being this interior 380 00:22:51,809 --> 00:22:54,000 indoor outdoor space. 381 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,329 It'll keep everything in indoors that condition space 382 00:22:57,329 --> 00:23:00,799 protected when the weather is just kind of iffy, and then 383 00:23:00,799 --> 00:23:04,109 the patio will be conditioned as well we're planning on 384 00:23:04,109 --> 00:23:07,000 putting heating and air out there as well. 385 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,940 So we're going to try to keep those doors open as much as 386 00:23:09,940 --> 00:23:13,150 possible.

Right. And so those 449 00:28:45,980 --> 00:28:48,569 will come out and then you'll see the brick, like the next 450 00:28:48,569 --> 00:28:51,299 door building here, right, we can expose the break here on 451 00:28:51,299 --> 00:28:54,759 the outside we're going to see the brick from, I'm hoping 452 00:28:54,759 --> 00:28:58,000 that's 1880 brick from the inside. 453 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:02,039 So we're going to have as much history as we can put back 454 00:29:02,039 --> 00:29:06,349 in there.

It's been like that 456 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,000 probably since the 1980s. 457 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,000 80s. 458 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:30,109 Right. Right. The only difference is we're not going to 459 00:29:30,109 --> 00:29:31,369 have like the storefront, I mean we're right front bar we 460 00:29:31,369 --> 00:29:34,000 don't need windows for, you know, selling t shirts and 461 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:35,000 mannequins. 462 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,000 You don't need mannequins sitting at a table drinking. 463 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:52,000 We could try. 464 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,210 With the no smoking ban now and all that, you know, we're 465 00:29:55,210 --> 00:29:58,599 getting less people frequenting in the business and we want 466 00:29:58,599 --> 00:30:01,849 to really make a statement on the square. Historically 467 00:30:01,849 --> 00:30:04,890 speaking and we've looked at all of these pictures and 468 00:30:04,890 --> 00:30:08,000 everything we can possibly do to bring back the 469 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:12,269 history of this building because everything I've tried to 470 00:30:12,269 --> 00:30:16,950 do in the past has always gone back to the 80s. Right. And 471 00:30:16,950 --> 00:30:21,640 it's like, but that's not historical. Right. Can we go back 472 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,609 beyond that. So, this is going to expose draw so hopefully 473 00:30:23,609 --> 00:30:25,990 we got the brick behind the facade that we can expose the 474 00:30:25,990 --> 00:30:29,000 signage is going to be linear vertical like it used to be 475 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:33,000 with the mode, like the things like this. 476 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:36,700 The addition to the sign above the building is more of a 477 00:30:36,700 --> 00:30:40,000 historical period like the Morrison's kit. 478 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,000 Corn corn kit, corn kit stuff. 479 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,440 Hollywood signage, you know something a little bit more 480 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,970 outstanding kind of races that lifts that that building up 481 00:30:49,970 --> 00:30:51,000 a little bit. 482 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:55,250 So, if you look at the square from the, from the actual 483 00:30:55,250 --> 00:30:59,710 courthouse you see all these buildings from Abby down to L 484 00:30:59,710 --> 00:31:04,079 SA that are all built up and nice and reclaimed and repurp 485 00:31:04,079 --> 00:31:05,000 osed. 486 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,619 And then you get to this just flat spot all the way past to 487 00:31:07,619 --> 00:31:10,000 the lawyer spot, and we're just part of that. 488 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:15,130 Part of it. So we're trying to boost it, lift it, make it 489 00:31:15,130 --> 00:31:19,950 look more appealing and generate more business for the 490 00:31:19,950 --> 00:31:21,000 square. 491 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:25,640 Well, I really appreciate you looking beyond the 1980s and 492 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:29,000 into farther back for sure. 493 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:33,240 Two questions. What are the odds that there are some 494 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:37,690 original bricks higher up on the facade and secondarily 495 00:31:37,690 --> 00:31:41,000 from your facade to the curb how many feet. 496 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:45,420 We know that we climbed up on the top, and we actually 497 00:31:45,420 --> 00:31:49,000 tried to remove some of the stuff that's there behind it is 498 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:50,000 original. 499 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:54,289 We're still bringing in some masons that kind of got us 500 00:31:54,289 --> 00:31:59,000 through that because the plaster is right to the brick. 501 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,000 There's a lot of wire mesh behind it. Right. 502 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:05,000 The way it used to be done is the way it's done now. Right. 503 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:08,289 So we're hoping that we can salvage and reclaim as much of 504 00:32:08,289 --> 00:32:10,000 that brick that was there. 505 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,559 You know, I mean that's what we want.

I think it's right at nine feet from the front of 509 00:32:20,660 --> 00:32:21,000 the building. Right. 510 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,960 The sidewalk. It's like two just a little over four foot 511 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:31,000 sections and then the curb. 512 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:34,039 Whenever you're speaking I'm so sorry whenever you address 513 00:32:34,039 --> 00:32:37,000 questions would you mind speaking into the mic for us. 514 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:43,000 Oh, I'm sorry.

You know, we're trying not to shoot ourselves in 561 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:11,000 the foot at the same time, a little step out of bounds if 562 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:11,000 we can. 563 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:14,869 So yes, that can be that can definitely be the fonts can be 564 00:35:14,869 --> 00:35:17,000 changed and all that stuff. 565 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:21,099 We were going block lettering because just that's the way, 566 00:35:21,099 --> 00:35:25,000 you know, our current style is within the business. 567 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:30,309 I wonder if it would look less sort of just stuck up there 568 00:35:30,309 --> 00:35:34,000 if it was the width of the building. 569 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:38,320 It looks like it's not far off from being the full width of 570 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:40,000 the building now. 571 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,000 I don't have any I don't have a solution in mind. 572 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:48,000 I just I just think that it it's not quite there yet. 573 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:52,150 Yeah, it's I think the measurements on that I was looking 574 00:35:52,150 --> 00:35:53,000 at earlier. 575 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,000 I was 17, Brandon, 17 foot wide. 576 00:35:56,000 --> 00:36:02,000 The building's only 21, 23 feet wide. 577 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:05,000 So there's several versions of that. 578 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:10,000 There's not a lot of play left in the width of your right. 579 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:14,159 And that was based on, you know, saving costs and getting 580 00:36:14,159 --> 00:36:18,329 lettering that's already prefabricated and the size and 581 00:36:18,329 --> 00:36:22,000 keeping it within structural. 582 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,780 I'll say I really like the idea of mimicking the Morrison's 583 00:36:25,780 --> 00:36:27,000 corn kit sign. 584 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,000 And I've actually got a picture pulled up of it right now. 585 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,800 And the big difference between it, because I felt the same 586 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,030 way as Helen that was off was the framework, the size, the 587 00:36:35,030 --> 00:36:38,000 boldness of the framework behind it. 588 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:42,429 However, we can't approve this sign that has to go with the 589 00:36:42,429 --> 00:36:44,000 same ordinance. 590 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:48,000 We can only approve the architecture of the building. 591 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:49,000 Right. Right. 592 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:53,710 But I definitely agree. And looking at the Morrison's corn 593 00:36:53,710 --> 00:36:57,559 kit sign even next to this and reimagining the loophole 594 00:36:57,559 --> 00:37:00,460 sign with the theme moved over and making a little more 595 00:37:00,460 --> 00:37:04,000 straight and all of I like the big block lettering. 596 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,289 But as a lighter framework, I think would still give you 597 00:37:06,289 --> 00:37:07,000 that height. 598 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:11,000 But without that heavy kind of grid, absolutely. 599 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:14,340 I agree. I see your point of the contemporaneous of that 600 00:37:14,340 --> 00:37:16,000 grid that's on the rendering. 601 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:19,030 Yeah, that's something we just put into place for the time 602 00:37:19,030 --> 00:37:22,000 being, just kind of put it up there. Right. I understand. 603 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:26,099 We've had many discussions about that, like lessening what 604 00:37:26,099 --> 00:37:29,000 we were kind of shooting for that question to come out. 605 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,000 Yeah. So that we could see. 606 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:35,130 Really, I really personally support the idea of going up 607 00:37:35,130 --> 00:37:39,000 with that sign to add that height to your building. 608 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:42,260 And I think that gives you a lot of the more modern feel 609 00:37:42,260 --> 00:37:45,900 that you're looking for in general, especially doing the 610 00:37:45,900 --> 00:37:51,289 all black facade gives you more as oddly as it is, it hark 611 00:37:51,289 --> 00:37:53,000 ens back to that 1940s store. 612 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,000 But it also is very modern. 613 00:37:56,000 --> 00:38:00,000 Are there any more questions? 614 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,000 Absolutely. 615 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,480 And I'm with the legal department. I'm not a decision maker 616 00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:05,000 here. 617 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:09,670 I just want to preface that. But the folding doors that you 618 00:38:09,670 --> 00:38:15,000 were showing there, it appears that they may protrude out 619 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,000 and partially obstruct the public sidewalk. 620 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:23,170 Is that part of the public property or is that part of your 621 00:38:23,170 --> 00:38:27,000 lot that belongs to the applicant? 622 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:32,170 Because if it does go out of the sidewalk, the commission's 623 00:38:32,170 --> 00:38:36,789 approval wouldn't be granting an easement or anything of 624 00:38:36,789 --> 00:38:39,000 that nature or property right there. 625 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:42,000 There's something within an architectural style. 626 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:46,010 But I thought it might help to clarify. Is that actually 627 00:38:46,010 --> 00:38:49,510 extending into the sidewalk itself or is that part of your 628 00:38:49,510 --> 00:38:50,000 lot? 629 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,840 It would in this current design. Yes, it would be on the 630 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:57,630 sidewalk, like people put chairs and tables the same way 631 00:38:57,630 --> 00:39:00,000 that you can put chairs and tables in front of it. 632 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,610 So it's kind of like that gray area with the usable space 633 00:39:02,610 --> 00:39:04,000 in front of the building. 634 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:07,650 But we could always like those doors and those that front 635 00:39:07,650 --> 00:39:11,510 facade and the windows is going to totally depend on, you 636 00:39:11,510 --> 00:39:14,539 know, if the city buys off on this idea to where when we 637 00:39:14,539 --> 00:39:17,369 get the bids, where that window, what kind of windows and 638 00:39:17,369 --> 00:39:19,000 doors, those are going to actually be. 639 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,039 They could be roll up windows. They could be something 640 00:39:22,039 --> 00:39:24,630 completely different for easement purposes and stuff like 641 00:39:24,630 --> 00:39:27,260 that, because we will when we open it all up, we're going 642 00:39:27,260 --> 00:39:30,000 to put chairs and tables in front just like everybody else. 643 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,000 So we're going to take up that space. 644 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:37,110 The consideration of this facade would not grant permission 645 00:39:37,110 --> 00:39:42,000 on behalf of the city per se to extend onto the sidewalk. 646 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:45,179 That kind of permission may have to come from another board 647 00:39:45,179 --> 00:39:47,000 or council or some other body. 648 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,000 Yes, that's actually a really good point. 649 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,000 I didn't think about that. 650 00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:54,329 I'm sure that Cliff will come up with something that can 651 00:39:54,329 --> 00:39:56,000 not MPs on the sidewalk. 652 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,000 So it doesn't set a precedence. 653 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:02,000 You can get accordion doors that have the pivot point. 654 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,000 Right where they're like they fold inside. 655 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:06,000 Yeah, we can. 656 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:10,000 I mean, that's just that's semantics. 657 00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:13,000 I guess there are solutions for sure. 658 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:17,000 This guy knows all of them.
