>>commissioner kathrin moore: it was a low grade garbage adding 100 cars to the site. it eliminated any possible recall of the importance of the stuart street side and completely ignored the existing context of any of the buildings next to it. it was an aggressive office building which was as an office building quite inappropriate in terms of it's facade treatment etc. had a strong push back from at least 3 commissioners. and also attitude -- used the public realm to exercise this for important purnsz. -- purpose. there were other issues involved. what stands clear for me is that it had a garbage entrance on -- garage entrance on the stuart street side and that was totally beyond comprehension. >> i recall being around that and a lot of issues revolved around land use. in that regard, i believe this project is appropriate for it's size, it's massing and design. my question is how do you honor events that happened here and is whapg -- what's happening here honoring the events. the use is not there. that's within this building and it's an interesting question on how you

>>commissioner kathrin moore: is it possible do you ever prepare a summary of which buildings were added to the historic district that you mentioned. it would be interesting to know which ones they are? >> i'm not sure? which historic district? >> you said jackson square,alamo square. >> they are for existing designated properties. we weren't adding properties. >> we would like to see what they are because there is so much on the margin of all of that. it would be great for us to see. >> happy to provide that information. city clerk: commissioners if there is nothing further we can address the public comment period. public comment:at this time, members of the public may address the board on items of interest to the public that are within the subject matter jurisdiction of the board except agenda items. with respect to agenda items, your opportunity to address the board will be afforded when the item is reached in the meeting with one exception. when the agenda item has already been reviewed in a public hearing at which members of the public were allowed to testify and the board has close
