his wife--junius' wife had predeceased him, and junius left everything else to pierpont, the bank, thehouses, whatever art collections junius had. and pierpont did exactly the same thing. he gave $3 million each to his daughters. his wife got the houses and a trust fund that had been set up by pierpont's own father and additional money from pierpont. but everything else was left to his son. and his will was--it opened with a resounding declaration of his episcopal faith that christ had died for his sins. i'm not sure i'm gonna be able to quote it exactly, but something to the effect that, "i leave my soul to the hands of my redeemer, who may wash it in his blood and bring it cleansed before the throne of our heavenly father."

john kevlin here with the law if ierv of rubin junius. i want to talk to you about two specific issues in the western soma today. first is the historic use controls that luke was just referring to. these are currently in effect throughout the eastern neighborhoods and actually currently in effect under the existing controls in west soma. and essentially what these do is for certain classes of historic buildings, it relaxes the use controls in them with the goal of allowing the buildings to stay under operation, giving them flexibility so they can maintain and preserve them adequately since they all are historic resources. so, currently in the west soma, excuse me, this is a little technical so bear with me. all uses are permitted in buildings that are landmarks, that are contributory to article 10 historic district, and that are article 11 rated. and i just want to make a note that this is already narrower than what's allowed under the historic use controls throughout the rest of the eastern neighborhoods. but what is being proposed right

susan yogi and david from acom have handled environmental review brilliantly and andrew junius is our esteemed counsel. all of our team is here to answer questions you may have. last and certainly but not least, i would like to introduce my life and business partner, my wife [speaker not understood] who will put it in historical context for you. >> thank you. good afternoon, commissioners. my name is valerie [speaker not understood]. my roots go back to the 1960s when i would come down to work at my parents' a pale business which is right around the corner from this site. later on in the 1980s and in the 1990s when i ran the family apparel business, this site was used as the parking lot for all of our employees. and since most of our employees are now in the apparel business and women often worked late, i remember that for safety concerns we always needed to have a guard escort them to the parking lot. and i can sure say times have changed. today we are here to present our beautiful 31-story residential high-rise designed by architect tonica and our plaza west of the building designed

dan from tan with rubin and junius. i'm a member of the action housing coalition and also represent panorama interest that will be beforehand you with the first student housing project developed under the student ordinance. i'm very happy to have participated in developing this new program. we think it's going to be a good one, a very successful one. it was certainly developed through a very transparent and open process where everybody really had an opportunity to vet it, to consider the issues, to weigh in. we haven't been given that opportunity on this -- on this reporting requirement. even after a very cursory look, it seems that there are some problems. again, as tim said, the timing is odd. the first student housing project hasn't even come out of the ground yet and already we're going to have three layers of reporting requirements related to student housing. institutional master plans, the planning code sections that i just handed out to you that are overseen by both the planning department and the mayor's office
