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