We are happy to report that there has been significant progress in the effort to preserve these important buildings. Architect Paul Johnson has been hired by the owners to complete a Historic Structures Report (HSR), which is the first formal step in the restoration of a historic building. The HSR documents current condition, extent of historic fabric remaining, the evolution and history of changes to the buildings, and makes recommendations for preservation and restoration of the structures. SOHO has developed a working relationship with the owners over the last year in the effort to restore the cottages and redevelop the site. New tarps were installed over the roofs just before the recent rains set in and vegetation has been cleared from the site. The HSR includes intensive research, physical investigation and documentation and it is scheduled to be completed in March. A formal proposal will be generated shortly thereafter for the proposed development and restoration. |
