SE7-8 <br />• -first floor older wood double hung windows painted, caulked, and screwed shut. Lower sashes have wood signage <br />over the exterior and interior. Unable to assess condition of lower sashes.

Painted shut with caulk and paint used for <br />weatherization, exterior glazing is failing with water infiltration from outside entering at corners causing separation <br />at mortise and tendon joints especially at lower sash. <br />SW4 <br />-first floor wood double -hung window.

All are caulked, painted, and screwed shut. <br />Northeast (along Portage) <br />NEI -3 <br />-second floor older wood double hung with interior storms. Painted shut with caulk and paint used for <br />weatherization, exterior glazing is failing with water infiltration from outside entering at corners causing separation <br />• at mortise and tendon joints especially at lower sash. <br />NE4 <br />-newer wood double hung window.

Interior storm, caulked and <br />painted shut. <br />04/05/2018 <br />I photographed and inspected the older wood windows on the second story from the exterior this morning. I did not <br />find excessive deterioration but many, many layers of paint and caulk. To the extent that the areas of concern that I <br />photographed from the inside are unreachable from the outside due to the amount of caulk and paint. The sills seem <br />to be in good shape, the characteristic trim work which overhangs the sashes by about an inch appears to be in good <br />shape but in need of stripping. I counted 5 thick layers on most of it. I did find cracked lower sashes on the <br />southwest side. <br />Steve Szaday <br />Historic Preservation Inspector <br />STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES, CHAPIN PARK: <br />II.
