Vavra, Architect Scope of Restoration Work See existing facade photograph and restored facade sketch attached. General Description The 214 Main Street Building is a two store wood facade building with approximately 22 feet of frontage. The first floor is approximately 8O% storefront system. The second floor originally was predominately wood sided with three larger -sized windows and a dominant ornamental wood cornice. The entire second floor has been covered with vinyl siding. but there appears to be a good chance that much of the ornamental work remains below the siding. The original storefront has been removed and replaced during the 1950's. The street entrance to the second floor has been removed at this time. The restoration work will include removing the vinyl siding and first floor storefront system, including the panel element at the second floor line. A new storefront system will be installed, including a new sidewalk entrance to the second floor. New or reconditioned siding work will be done to the second floor areas and new windows will replace the deteriorated ones. The cornice will be restored and the entire front will be stained and painted. It is the intent that this work will be done in a manner consistent with reconstructing the original look of the building to the extent possible. Work Description A. Remove vinyl siding and added cladding from second floor and cornice. Remove first floor storefront and wood canopy element at second floor line. (Anything that is original to the building and is discovered during removal of the added covering material should not be removed until inspection by the architect) B. Install new storefront and second floor entrance in design compatible to building's original design. (Verify that storefront glazing conforms to safety glazing standards.) C. Install new second floor windows and siding. D. Repair Cornice/parapet area. replacing any missing trim pieces. E. Painting and or staining of windows. doors. siding. cornice and miscellaneous areas. 214 Main Street Facade Restoration Proposal Page 3 Architectural Services Proposal Submitted to: Michael Lippner Submitted by: Gregg A. Vavra, Architect Optional Work Description F. Provide retractable cloth awning in historically correct design above storefront area. Cost Estimate The cost of the above work would vary with the quality and availability of contractors. Additionally the repair of the cornice /parapet area is difficult to determine due to the unknown conditions which 1,1,111 be known only when work begins. Optional work is not included in this preliminary cost estimate and the minimal amount of work to be done is assumed in the estimate. It is estimated that between Thirteen and Fifteen thousand dollars is the low end amount required to do the work described under A through F above. 214 Main Street Facade Restoration Proposal Page 4 - r. `r '- •r`..•b 4 T rtt • f > �is.....i.+uc :• c C,_. 1 _ ✓ a...liw - �:'..^es'_'a ✓ • F ...�. t..•u :. -,i..r _... _.. _ -. . -.. -- •'+.fee.- :�..y.+sw:& flr . `--- - -. —._ _ _ -. —�- --- - -- -- VILLAGE OF LEMONT FACADE IMPROVEMENT GRANT PROGRAM AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT, entered into this day of , 19, between the Village of Lemont, Illinois (hereinafter referred to as the "Village ") and the following designated OWNER/LESSEE, to wit: Owner's/Lessee's Name: Mt EL.
