1:13 pm
presentation architect. glad to be here. show you where we're at on pier 70. it's not a substantial amount of work. knowing there's a lot to see, however. pier 70 we've got the 23 historic building a cluster of 7 preliminary building on illinois and 20th centered around the large brick masonry machine shops that are the core of the pier 70. the right hand picture is the pier of 113 and fourteen an incredible industrial space the office building on the corner there's 3 hundred square feet to be addressed we're anticipating
1:14 pm
to moving into construction in the next 6 months and preceding over the course of several years thereafter. this is the cluster of buildings in our jurisdiction and the horizon street is illinois so it's the 7 buildings so the primary large one is up in the left hand corner and rehabilitation is the key of the grouping of the historic buildings. there is an urgency the buildings are not in good condition and one of them very dangerous condition, in fact, and all of them awaiting so it's something we've moving ahead to address. dealing with it will fundamentally we've got safety
1:15 pm
upgrades >> utilities and this is primarily a direct rehabilitation project there is very little change we're addressing on those building. building 10 is at the corner it's the original office building frederick mar it's a 5 story building that will be converted to office use. it's one of the firjz is the seismic work will be braced shield walls. we have interior with a wing of the old executive offices on the left is an imagination of that. we're proposing a main lobby will be rehabbed and restored
1:16 pm
and retained. otherwise the tile in the non-historic applications are going to be removed. we also one of the few changes is going to be a ramp at the front to make the front door assessable so it's easy to get up to that with a low ramp that's the one change to the exterior of the building. 102 is a powerhouse. it will be presumed a restaurant use it awaits it still has equipment in it that will take some sometime to remove. it's used by the adjacent shipyard. it, too will have some seismic works it has 4 giant turbines
1:17 pm
and we're removing 2 of them that's for the floor area. the trlz are in the basement and the electrical partitioned we're going to remove. we're proposing a deck off the back of this building that faces the exterior space it's reversible completely. one 02 gets a ramp but it's basically, no handrails encroaching on the front of the building. the next one is the revial building it's delightful and it's a constrained building it's been converted to a navy hospital in the 1930s. it has an additional off the
1:18 pm
back it will be a single office use. it is in in conjunction with the tenants. this building is role the last of ours at the moment. we're removing most of everything in the building expectation is the structural wall picture it had those backpacks put on it when it was a hospital the structure from the rear is in poor condition and the roof is being reconstructed. this is the corridor 10 fourteen and fourteen is a cluster of buildings it's two sections right in front of us is the eastern and western sections they were built separately and
1:19 pm
connected by the white building built in 19 fourteen. there's a long edition cross the right hand side of the building that has a rooms and locker storage. it is of great interest you see 1906 earthquake repairs. it was impartial collapsed. the building is a dignified space. this is a view of the sketch of the correct k connect or it will be a public at trump and it will be separated by the wings of a glass wall. the drawings starts to show the seismic. there's those delightful office
1:20 pm
structures inside the building that will be rehabbed as well. this the the scheme of the building to tie into the existing building. it is a robust seismic scheme but a necessary one for it the danger of the building. this is adding the messing in the minds. the goal is to keep this central of the goal and identified features. we use the cranes as a way to skweth. the truck loading using that oongsz storage wing it's a paper
1:21 pm
street you michigan is along that street we're going to use that for industrial uses. industrial uses especially the unique warehouses this is 115 and 16 unique warehouses that were designed in 1916 and 17. they're in need even if definite attention. we're putting in new uplifting, however, that's called folding doors that are the big loading doors on both sides of those buildings so those are useful industrial structures. there's the loading from the west side of this building a service scheme will remove a section of the concrete wall so
1:22 pm
we can stabldz those be building. there will be a mess then inside those believe for the floor area. the last of the building this is building 14 this is the only world war ii building from the 40s first year it's a series of sheds this year this is the side fabs west our proposal is to get loading doors and windows as well and stables the interior. lastly we have a space in the core of 113 and 14 and 15 it will double as an active space but definitelyly be an urban outdoor space and it connects to
1:23 pm
the 13 and fourteen. i'll leave it at that >> thank you. commissioners questions for staff response. commissioner wolfram >> i had a couple of questions one in the documents it said that you're getting historic tax credits so i want to make sure where you are in the process. >> i'm sorry i didn't mention that, yes we've just initiated questions and posed to start part too early in the spring so we're in discussions with the park service and port. >> and each building individually. >> we will have a single application. i know it's under a single application had he have individual building amendments they're looking for >> and then a couple of other
1:24 pm
questions. one is who is the structural engineer >> the structural engineer i always get his name wrong. >> and then. >> i did get it wrong. >> eaten in building 102 you said there will be some seismic work what is the seismic solution. >> we don't have a scheme again, it's kind of tenant driven it doesn't need a lot of seismic upgrade so there's not a scheme per say. >> and 102 and 4 what's your approach to doors. >> we've done a good survey on this this is mostly repair some selective not much new at all.
1:25 pm
at 102 some removal to access the deck and otherwise retention repair >> and roofing. >> roofing is repairs largely selective replacement 1013 and fourteen is a corrugated metal right now otherwise again repair and selective replacement. >> and in terms of your mechanic scheme. >> yeah. we've penciled out a general approach to mechanical. >> okay. thank you. >> commissioner pearlman. >> i do have one question because i love this area i've been there many, many times. the core gaited metal that has the rust is it going to be stabled or taken away
1:26 pm
>> there's two places i mean on the roof of 1 fourteen 13 and fourteen is not in good condition. but on fourteen we're not necessarily doing that that's really the rust >> elevational. >> there's a lot of pictures of details and obviously not stable. >> we put in new doors and rape windows and stuff like that but it doesn't need to go anywhere. >> thank you. commissioner commissioner johnck and a yes. i want to clarify a comment and question. is there going to be public comment on this >> yes. >> i'll comment later the
1:27 pm
question i have building 102 showed partial demolition and partial removal of equipment. >> there's those gigantic turbines that's role what we're talking about. two of those are going to be roermd for the floor and two will be retained on site for interpretation >> oh, for interpretation great. oh, it was a comment related to my question i'm excited about what you're doing so the idea of keeping the equipment is an important part of the project >> i'm mark the coordinator the port has prepared historic documentation of the turbines so we have information value for

1:29 pm
i would maybe request if at some point we could get drawings because this passage was a little bit thin in terms of material we've seen the photographs and the drawings are a little bit thin. we understand it's a full rehabilitation project but when you start introducing mechanical and structural they have an impact especially to buildings to scale so withhold to see a more complete package. >> thank you, commissioners any other comments? seeing none, >> moving on commissioners will place you on item 10 at 151 liability street certificate of
