SUBSEQUENT INVESTIGATIONS AND REPAIRS HAVE BEEN PERFORMED OVER THE YEARS TO ADDRESS DEFICIENCIES IN THE ENVELOPE, INCLUDING STUCCO REPAIRS AND WINDOW REPLACEMENTS. THE SCOPE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO ADDRESS AREAS THAT HAVE NOT YET BEEN ADDRESSED, INCLUDING DEGRADATION OF THE EXISTING STONE PANELING AROUND THE PRIMARY ENTRANCE VOLUME, AND THE STONE WAINSCOT AROUND THE PERIMETER OF THE BUILDING. THE EXISTING STONE IS TO BE REMOVED AND REPLACED, AS THE PRESENCE AND CONDITION OF A WEATHER-RESISTIVE BARRIER IS UNKNOWN. STOREFRONT WINDOWS ARE TO BE REPLACED AT THE PRIMARY ENTRANCE VOLUME, AND CORRECTIONS ARE PLANNED FOR FLASHINGS WHERE MISSING AT THESE EXISTING ROUGH OPENINGS. EVIDENCE OF WATER INFILTRATION IS VISIBLE AT THE INTERIOR ADJACENT TO THESE OPENINGS, INDICATING POTENTIAL FOR DAMAGE TO THE LIGHT-GAUGE STEEL FRAMING SYSTEM.
