r <br />alternatives to demolition, not simply the least expensive <br />alternatives, and that all such alternatives such as sale, <br />rental, or lease of the property have failed or with reasonable <br />likelihood will fail or will not earn a fair economic return on <br />value. <br />RECOMMENDATIONS <br />The greenhouse located at 1326 Lincolnway East is an important <br />element to the Lincolnway East Local Historic District. It is a <br />unique entity in the district and part of an unusual <br />residential/commercial site. <br />The building is rated non-contributing on the city survey. The <br />staff contests, upon reanalysis of the site, that the rating <br />reflects only the architectural integrity of the building, and <br />not its value as an important element in the interpretation of <br />the site as an intact example of a homestead/business, the <br />juxtaposition of which was a common expression of mercantile <br />activity in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. <br />The property is also the first representative of the gradual <br />change of the district from a primarily residential area to a <br />mixed business and residential area. <br />The greenhouse contributes a unique volume to the streetscape of <br />the Lincolnway East Local Historic District. Arguably, it is not <br />compatible with the residential construction of the rest of the <br />district, yet its general volume and relationship to the street <br />is such that its loss will create a gap in the rhythm of the <br />streetscape. <br />It is the staff's assessment that the uniqueness of the <br />greenhouse is an asset to the district for the reasons sited <br />above. Its demolition would have a negative impact on the <br />historic and architectural fabric of the district. <br />-- James V. Pastor <br />Staff, Historic Preservation <br />
