    Executive Summary Conditional Use HEARING DATE: JANUARY 19, 2012 Date: January 12, 2012 Case No.: 2011.0471C Project Address: 1111 California Street Zoning: RM‐4 (Residential Mixed, High Density) District 65‐A Height and Bulk District Nob Hill Special Use District Block/Lot: 0253/020 Project Sponsor: Allan Casalou 1111 California Street San Francisco, CA 94108 Staff Contact: Kevin Guy – (415) 558‐6163 [email protected] Recommendation: Approval with Conditions PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Nob Hill Masonic Center (ʺCenterʺ) has operated since 1958, hosting activities associated with the Freemasons, as well as a variety of events that include music, comedy, and cultural performances, civic events (such as graduations and naturalization ceremonies), exhibitions, and corporate meetings. The assembly and entertainment functions of the Center became nonconforming in 1978, when the subject property was rezoned to the RM‐4 District, which does not permit such activities. The proposal is to continue the operation of the nonconforming entertainment and assembly uses, as well as the existing food and beverage service uses, which are conditionally permitted within the Nob Hill Special Use District. No enlargement or intensification of the existing nonconforming use, and no change to the physical configuration of the Center is proposed as part of the request for Conditional Use authorization. The maximum capacity of the auditorium would remain at 3,282 persons. SITE DESCRIPTION AND PRESENT USE The Project Site is located on the south side of California Street between Jones and Taylor Streets, Block 0253, Lot 020. The subject property is located within the RM‐4 (Residential Mixed, High Density) District, the 65‐A Height and Bulk District, and the Nob Hill Special Use District.

  • Master Document National Register of Historic Places Nomination Form
    Master Document National Register of Historic Places Nomination Form The Burgess-Osborne Memorial Auditorium 1701 Wabash Avenue Mattoon, Illinois Prepared by Stephen A. Thompson Intrepid Consulting Services, Inc. April 2018 Executive Summary The following document is the master National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) nomination form submitted in a draft configuration to the Illinois State Historic Preservation Officer on 04 August 2017 for the 1953 Burgess-Osborne Memorial Auditorium (the Burgess) located at 1701 Wabash Avenue, Mattoon, Illinois. This NRHP document addresses the social and architectural significance of the Burgess and is an expansion of the 2013 Coles County List of Significant Places document generated for local landmarking of the Burgess. A related social sub-context addressed in detail in Appendix A of Section 8 is the role the Burgess played in the regional 1950s and 1960s pop music culture, with emphasis on the teen dances/concerts held at the facility and the bands that played there. The research of the associated contexts and the preparation of the nomination form were undertaken by Stephen A. Thompson of Intrepid Consulting Services, Inc., Carolyn Cloyd and Joyce St. Michael, members of the Coles County Historic Preservation Advisory Council, assisted with research and preparation of the National Register documentation. The Coles County Historic Preservation Advisory Council is an historic preservation advisory body under the Coles County Regional Planning & Development Commission, which reports to the Coles County Board. After thorough research and evaluation it has been determined that the Burgess is eligible for listing on the NRHP in that it: 1. Is locally significant under NRHP Criterion A, “…events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history.” 2.
