HEMA No. 2023-08 – The Cypress Fire Station (625 S. Cypress Avenue) <br />November 2, 2023 <br />Page 8 <br />3 <br />7 <br />9 <br />0 <br />The project complies with Restoration Standard No. 5. Distinctive materials, <br />features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that <br />characterize the restoration period will be preserved. The project will fully restore <br />the primary (west) façade and does not propose to remove character-defining <br />features or materials/finishes along the primary façade. The removal of the non- <br />compatible rear addition will restore the building back to its original 1928 building <br />footprint. <br />6. Standard for Rehabilitation No. 6 - Deteriorated historic features will be repaired <br />rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires replacement of <br />a distinctive feature, the new feature will match the old in design, color, texture, <br />and, where possible, materials. Replacement of missing features will be <br />substantiated by documentary and physical evidence. <br />The project complies with Rehabilitation Standard No. 6. As conditioned, <br />deteriorated historic features, particularly windows and doors, will be repaired <br />rather than replaced in locations where they are proposed to remain in-kind. Where <br />the severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new <br />feature will match the old in design, color, texture, and where possible, material. <br />Replacement of missing features will be substantiated by the original architectural <br />plans. <br />Standard for Restoration No. 6 - Deteriorated features from the restoration period <br />will be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires <br />replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match the old in design, <br />color, texture and, where possible, materials. <br />The project complies with Restoration Standard No. 6. As conditioned, all original <br />features at the primary (west) façade, along with the leaded glass window at the <br />north façade, and original windows and doors at the secondary (north and south) <br />and rear (east) facades, will be repaired rather than being replaced. Where the <br />severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new <br />feature will match the old in design, color, texture and, where possible, materials, <br />based on historic photographs and original architectural plans. <br />7. Standard for Rehabilitation No. 7 - Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, <br />will be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. Treatments that cause <br />damage to historic materials will not be used. <br />Standard for Rehabilitation No. 7 does not apply as the tenant improvements and <br />ADA access modifications to the building will not involve chemical or physical <br />treatments on the rehabilitation portions of the project. <br />  <br />    <br />
