HomeMy WebLinkAbout08132020 Historic Preservation Laydown-Sherry Furlong�i3.2L� v ICY /VI -- J„ L rti y c/ o w ,k — 5 h e ; Y ` /"-9 Seward Historical Properties List Suggestions I have made notes of my thoughts below (using the numbers before the 24 items Jessica forwarded, in the list) in hopes of expediting the meeting. I welcome corrections for the items I don't have a complete grasp of. 4. No. Mrs. Urbach is a great lady and has a great store, but the building is not historical. 3.5.1 need informed of this location in order to pass judgement. 4.6. Passenger Depot? The only one I know of is the Railroad Depot listed separately??? 5.7. No, I have not seen abowling alley in town, but have heard of it. Are we trying to designate something as historical that doesn't exist? 6.12. No, Seaview has been remodeled and ruined of any eligibility to "historical status". 7.14. No, I see not historical value in the library/museum building; either the old or the new. 8.15. No, if this bldg were historecal, then you would have to include the complex it fell off of, which is not historical. 9.19. No,Mile 0 was actually at the foot of 5`h avenue? 10.20. Where will the sigh be, on Millionaires' Row? 11.23. No, This port will be historical some day. The one that was no longer exists. 12.24. No, I see nothing historical about the Tribal Office. 13. Now here are my suggestions for consideration in adding to the list. This can and will be an ongoing work. We could just start with the properties we concur with already on the list, whereby making some progress this year. 2nd Ave. 402 2nd — the old dealership bldg. 318 2nd 316 2nd _ cute small house; maybe someone knows the history, like who lived there in the past? 303 2nd — this house was build before 1920. 3 rd Ave. 403 3rd — the house with the round corner. 417 3`a 418- The tree in this yard is perhaps the most beautiful in Seward and obviously quite old. 425 3rd 4th Ave. Sea Beans — these owners remodeled the upstairs apartments with period basics, like claw foot tubs, etc Methodist Church Tony's Bar — lots of history in there. 5th Ave Hotel Seward 228 5th — Log House Ray Bldg. IOOF bldg 611 or 613? 5th — house with beautiful stone foundation must have been there a good while. 615 5th — Old Triplex 6th Ave. Quonset Hut — Seward deserves one of these on the register. Adams 611 Adams — Nice brown house on the corner with two dormers. Seward Hwy The airforce property deserves designation and signage noting the history of this property during WWII. 3. 4.
