Project Impacts Analysis of the Standard Project PROJECT IMPACTS ANALYSIS OF THE STANDARD PROJECT BERKELEY, ALAMEDA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA Submitted to: Andrew Young Executive Vice President Landmark Properties, Inc. 455 Epps Bridge Parkway, Suite 201 Athens, Georgia 30606 Prepared by: Michael Hibma, M.A., RPH #603 LSA 157 Park Place Point Richmond, California 94801 510.236.6810 Kimberly Butt, M.S., AIA Interactive Resources 117 Park Place Point Richmond, California 94801 510.236.7435 LSA Project No. TMK1501 April 2017 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY LSA prepared this Project Impacts Analysis (PIA) for The Standard Project (project). The analysis utilized information drawn from previous historical resource evaluations, property records, and conceptual site plans. The background research and field review identified the two following built environment cultural resources 45 years old or older within the project site: • Fred Turner Building at 2546-2554 Bancroft Way was designed by architect Julia Morgan and constructed circa 1940. This building is eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, the California Register of Historical Resources, and is Berkeley City Landmark #49. This building qualifies as a “historical resource” under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)1; and • Bancroft Center at 2558-2580 Bancroft Way was designed by Berkeley-based architect John Hans Ostwald and built in 1963, Bancroft Center. In 2016 LSA evaluated this building and found that it does not appear eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, the California Register of Historical Resources, or for listing as a City of Berkeley Landmark, or as a Structure of Merit, or as a contributing element to a historic district. It does not qualify as a “historical resource” under CEQA. See separate LSA evaluation in Appendix B. The proposed project would redevelop the project site with a mix of new construction and partial rehabilitation and re-use of the Fred Turner Building. To accommodate the new construction, the project would partially demolish the southern half (rear) of the Fred Turner Building and construct an eight-story addition. The project would rehabilitate the front, street-facing half of the building and courtyard and remove several non-historic alterations. The main façade contains much of the character-defining features of Julia Morgan’s original design. The portion slated for demolition would be confined to areas significantly altered by previous tenants and owners. Bancroft Center would be entirely demolished and as it does not appear to qualify as a historical resource under CEQA, it is not included in the impacts analysis. However, in applying the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties for determining the appropriateness of the proposed development, LSA found the project will result in a net loss of historic fabric of a City Landmark. Based on the results of this analysis, LSA concludes that the proposed project would result in a substantial adverse change in the historical significance of the Fred Turner Building as defined at CEQA Guidelines §15064.5(b). This change is due to the proposed partial demolition of the Fred Turner Building to accommodate the new construction. 1 Defined at California Public Resources Code §21084.1; as well as at §3.24.110
