STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation are used to evaluate new construction projects in National Register historic districts. Applicable standards include: 2. The historic character of a property shall be retained and preserved. The removal of historic materials or alteration of features and spaces that characterize a property shall be avoided. The proposed project removes minimal historic material while enhancing the existing facilities. 9. New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction shall not destroy historic materials that characterize the property. The new work shall be differentiated from the old and shall be compatible with the massing, size, scale, and architectural features to protect the historic integrity of the property and its environment. The proposed clerestory windows at the dining hall will be visible but are limited in height and compatible with the historic building. The dining hall addition is separated from the historic building by a glass lobby that acts as a hyphen. The addition’s simple massing and articulation, stucco cladding, and fenestration patterns are differentiated but compatible with the historic dining hall. 10. New additions and adjacent or related new construction shall be undertaken in such a manner that if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environment would be unimpaired. If the proposed modifications were removed in the future, most of the building and site’s form and integrity would remain. Maintain as much historic fabric as possible; proposed addition is in keeping with the character of the site. The proposed project meets the standards.
