LaSalle - COA <br />Date:Thursday, July 15, 2021 7:44:46 AM <br />Thanks for the quick reply! We are really excited to get started and to continue our work on <br />West LaSalle. My comments are in blue. <br /> <br />1. Replace the rear egress siding on the existing exterior door. <br />a. Replacing the door, or the siding? If door, what kind of door to be used? We are <br />repairing the siding and replacing the door. We are salvaging a solid wood craftsman <br />style exterior door. <br />2. Replace bay window with flat windows. <br />a. East bay (protrusion, with 16/1 windows), or North bay (by electric meter/rear door, <br />currently has 1/1 windows)? The North bay <br />b. What kind/manufacture of windows are you proposing to replace it with? We are <br />replacing them with either salvaged wood exterior windows or new historically <br />appropriate windows. We'll look for 1/1 to match what is there now or try to find 16/1 <br />salvage to match the other windows on the house. We haven't chosen a brand yet <br />because we are hoping to find salvage. <br />3. Replace smaller windows on the lower left portion of the rear of the house with French doors <br />a. Please indicate where this will be on a diagram. see attached for placement of doors <br />and stairs <br />b. Will the basement windows be closed-up? The door will be over one of the basement <br />windows. But we do not plan to close the basement windows. <br />c. What kind/manufacture of sliding door are you proposing? We will find a salvaged or <br />new historically appropriate wooden exterior swinging French door with true divided <br />light. <br />d. Will there be steps, a porch/deck, etc? There will be steps down to the ground. Shown <br />as horizontal lines on the diagram. <br />4. Repair wood siding where needed and paint the entire house. <br />5. Repair damage to the roof. <br />6. Replace missing glass in the windows in the attic. <br />7. Repair front porch. Replace column and railings. Install new beadboard ceiling in burned out <br />section of the porch to the left of the front door. <br />a. This shouldn’t surprise you: talk to me about why you want to replace the columns. We <br />are only replacing the two columns that are missing. We will not replace the existing <br />columns. For the replacement columns, we will salvage partial matching columns from <br />620 W. La Salle. <br />Let me know if you need additional information. Just out of curiosity, which of the items <br />might need commission approval? <br />Thank you!
