The building was most recent- ly used as a resale shop and the new owner is proposing to convert the building to a restaurant use. The proposed work on the east (Main Street) façade includes removal of the existing windows, entry door, canopy, and sections of the masonry wall. In their place, the owner proposes a flush aluminum storefront system with double-insulated glass and a new entry. The west elevation, located on Turner Court, includes aluminum storefront windows at the upper level, a double door with transom and flank- ing windows at the lower level, and a painted steel canopy toward the south end. The south elevation, which faces the City-owned open space corridor leading from Main Streat down to Turner Court, is where most of the work is concentrated. At the west end, three window openings are proposed including two at the upper level and one at the lower, each with a steel lintel and lime- stone sill. A large decorative mosaic panel lit by three pendant-mounted LED wall wash lamps is pro- posed in the middle of the wall. At the east end, a secondary entry is proposed with a steel canopy above and wall sconces on both sides of the door. The owner is also proposing to remove the existing chimney located on the south elevation. No specs have been submitted yet for the proposed doors and windows. As mentioned, the proposed use of the space is a restaurant. No signage associated with the restau- rant is proposed as part of this application and any future signage on the building will require a sepa- rate Certificate of Appropriateness. The building is Vernacular Commercial, constructed in the late 1910’s, early 1920’s and is contributing to the Turner Junction Historic District, though it is not a candidate for local landmark status.
