Home My WebLink About1361 Bridge St Informal Discussion 07.01.2014GAPIZ4Zt July 1, 2014 Home Improvement Yarmouth Historical Commission Town of Yarmouth 1146 Route 28 South Yarmouth, MA 02664 Re: 1361 Bridge Street, South Yarmouth Informal discussion for proposed Demolition and rebuild Dear Committee: The property located at 1361 Bridge Street South Yarmouth was previously the Bass River Boat Shop. Mrs. Dios purchased the property in 2011. She is planning to open a jewelry retail store in the building after it is rebuilt. This commercial property was built (according to the tax records) in.1830. It is an ancient wood framed structure which is not structurally sound enough to remodel. It has peeling paint, a sagging roof and walls that are out of plumb. We would like to discuss the option to do a demolition of the whole building and re -build it on the same footprint. We are in the process of designing a new structure that will enhance the area and be similar in design to the original. The existing gabled roofline is asymmetrical. The designer at Capizzi Home Improvement would like to consider adjusting the new roof pitches and ridge location so that the new roofline will be symmetrical. We are enclosing a letter from an engineer who examined the property and a plan of existing conditions (drawn by a previous designer) along with our new floor plan. Also included are photos of the building showing what it looks like presently.

Box 816 Marstons IMills, MA 02648 RE: Site Visit, 1361 Ni dain Street S. Yarmouth, NIA Dear Mr, Rimington; McKenzie Engineer Consultants, file completed a site visit to 1361 Main Street (10' 28) ill SoLltll Yarmouth to review the CXIStilIL StrLiCtural condition of the main building; on site. The building is listed oil the National Historic 13Uildinu, Registry and is an ancient wood frunlcd structure. There is severe sagging of the roof and the walls are severely out of plumb. The left side wall is so far OUt 01'1)I[Ililfl, research should be conducted to determine: if that was done on llui•I)ose as an archi[ccull'al Ieature since the trial detail accominodates this and is reproduced in other areas of the building. The rool•system is visibly failed in some areas as ik itnessed by the splitting of'roof rafter apparently due to the wall movement. The floor systems is failed and there is no 16midation supporting the building other than some it-rcuLllarly placed concrete blocks or rubble stones. The building exterior walls and floor system appear to be in direct contact with the earth and are noticeably rotted in areas that are visible and probably in the condition in other areas, The earth and pavement in the area is at or above the siding line and is continuing to allow contact with water which will further rot the wood. There are two or three options for the renovation of'tlnis building to make it habitable. They ran-e from demolition and reconstruction ill a historic restoration to major repair and replacement of damaged systems. There really is not much difference bet%vicen the historic restoration and major repair. since every system in the building, requires repair. The method of how to proceed depends upon what the town historic commission will Permit. At a mininiuin the followim, struCturll iilll)l_0VClllentS must be completed to allow the building to be habitable and have a btlSillCSS occupy flee space: Provide a foundation for the exterior walls to bear on to stabilize the building. This can be done by lifting the buildino and constructing a code compliant frost foundation or a slab on grade sys. cm that would support the design floor loads with haunches at the pei`inlcter to support the exterior walls. l3ither way the building should be lifted at least 6 inches to raise it above the exterior grade and prevent %eater from continuing to deteriorate the wood. 1279 Midstone Rood Brewster, MA 02631 t 774.353,2144 f 774 353.2142 wyew.mckencgincemcom 2. Create a floor system to support the required 100 psf live load prescribed in the building code. This can be done using a new wood floor framing system or creation of a slab on grade foundation (see above). 3. Sister all wall studs and roof rafters with new material to stabilize the structure. Remove and replace rotted elements to include sills, studs, sheathing and siding as encountered. 4. Replace all windows and doors that are code compliant and approved by the historic comnussion. We had discussions on site about the feasibility of not touching the exterior of the existing building and building new walls and a roof on the interior of the building. This still may be an option, however the exterior is in such disrepair and the overall building needs to be elevated to stop the continued water problems, it may not be a true long term option to maintain this building for the proposed use. Since rotted materials in the exterior walls needs to be replaced and doors and windows need to be replaced, these exterior walls will need reinforcement no matter which option is chosen. It should be noted that these are the required structural repairs/replacements necessary. Other building code related work must also be completed to allow public access of this building to include electrical, plumbing, hvac, energy conservation, and egress.
