FAC-22-0901 Consider Downtown Facade Grant – 57 S Cherry St
There was discussion on the façade renovation and an explanation that the new windows will be similar in style to what is on the adacent building at 65 S Cherry St so they complement eachother. New windows will also be installed above the doors. The wrought iron will remain on the three windows on the 2nd floor on the north end.
The green trim color to be used on the façade will be similar to a green that is inside the building, similar to a hunter green. The red will be similar to a Sherwin Williams “Stolen Kiss”, which is a darker red. The applicant did mention they had received a second estimate for windows and doors and will provide that to the city for the record.
Lighting, awnings, and the rear of the building are not a part of this project but might be in a future project.
Member Martin made a motion to recommend approval of the façade grant, seconded by Member Markwart.
