The three buildings included in this report are all within the City of Reading’s Callowhill Historic District; therefore, their preservation either wholly, or in part, are desirable.

OBSERVED CONDITIONS The three subject properties have had alterations made over the years, but their facades are in good condition and their structural framing systems are repairable. The properties have sat vacant for over twenty years and the water infiltration through the failing roofs and mechanical unit failures, has created structural issues within the each of the buildings, with some far worse than others.

Re: 429-441 Penn Street Preliminary Options Study Dear Adrian, The purpose of this report is to provide you with preliminary options for three properties currently owned by the City of Reading. The three buildings included in this report are all within the City of Reading’s Callowhill Historic District; therefore, their preservation either wholly, or in part, are desirable. Each property has its own storied past and they remain as some of the few buildings of that vintage along Penn Street. The buildings date from the 1860’s to the 1930’s. OBJECTIVE We visited the buildings on April 4, 2017 and on April 26, 2017. The purpose of the site visits was to determine the overall conditions of the building envelopes and structure. The city recently acquired the buildings and the desire is to understand the cost implications of stabilizing either all or just portions of the buildings so that they can be attractive to a potential buyer for their eventual redevelopment.

and open office space on the third floor (third floor along Penn Street, 2nd floor along rear due to grade change). The current façade of this building was originally located on another building around the corner on 5th Street. The steel superstructure which ties this façade back to the original heavy timber framing of the three-story building can be observed on the second floor of the building. The following is a brief list of notable conditions:

1. The roof is in poor condition with some water infiltration noted. Significant ponding on the center sections of the building from clogged drains.

2. The windows are in fair condition, with the south elevation (Penn Street) faring better as they appear to have been painted in recent years.

3. The structural framing conditions of the building are good with localized areas of deteriorated flooring due to roof leaks into the building. The wood framed portions of the building front Penn Street, and the rear garage portion of the property all remain functional. However, a determination if change of use will increase the live loading capacity according to current code standards.

4. We did observe some step cracking along the exterior wall, between the windows in the stair tower which may be from open mortar joints are from settlement below the tower foundation.

5. Egress is provided at the front and rear of the property. There is also a modern stair tower toward the middle of the building that serves all three levels, plus the roof. However, due to the properties being linked internally on the second floors, their reuse may require additional construction to properly separate occupancies if inhabited by multiple tenants.

6. Elevator functionality was not tested or verified. It is not known if the size of the elevator would be large enough to be considered an accessible means of transport between the levels.

7. The façade is in good condition, with little deterioration to the terra cotta and cast stone elements. Surface soiling and some open mortar joints were noted. On the interior of the second floor, on the west wall, we did observe a significant vertical crack in the plaster. It is unclear why this crack has occurred since it is not visible on the upper or lower floors, nor is there evidence of it on the exterior of the building. At this time, we believe it is a localized stress either caused by water infiltration or from the structural ties associated with the relocated façade.

8. The systems were not tested during the site visit. There is some lighting still functioning within the building. The rooftop equipment is in very poor condition. The building is not sprinklered.

9. Interior finishes are in poor condition due to water and moisture damage. Much of the interiors are modern installations from the most recent office use, but the first floor is an open/flex space with a built-in stage. The tin ceiling in this property is an unusual pattern and is an interesting architectural feature to retain.

431-33 Penn Street (431-33) The property is a two-story brick masonry, timber framed building with a beautiful Victorian terra cotta and cast stone façade. The property was constructed in the 1860’s as a three and half story building. The upper story and attic space were removed at an undetermined time. When comparing historic photographs provided to our office by the City’s Historical Preservation Office, the original height is shown in a 1940 image, but by 1954 it is no longer present. This property is the smallest of the three subject buildings and is generally in fair condition. However, the rear addition of this building is in very poor condition because the timber framing has partially failed making several areas on the first and second floor rear inaccessible. The following is a brief list of notable conditions:

1. The roof on the front portion of the building is in-tact but requires repair. The roof on the rear extension of the building is in very poor condition with a large hole observed in the roofing material and roof structure. This hole has caused extensive damage on the interior and exterior of the building. Also, noted on the roof top is the large stucco failure from the adjacent walls along 441. The stucco is detached and delaminating, and the remnants have collapsed to the roof of 433.

2. The windows on the front of the building are in good condition, and appear to have been painted not too long ago. The rear portion of the building has suffered from deferred maintenance and the wood frames and sashes are in poor condition.

3. The structural framing is in good condition within the Penn Street frontage, but the rear extension is failing. The roof leak has damaged the existing framing of the roof, second, and first floors to where they will require replacement if these portions of the building are to remain.

4. Egress is provided at the front and rear of the property. The two-story structure is also linked to the adjacent properties so occupancy separation will be a factor if the properties will serve multiple tenants.

5. The façade is in good condition, containing terra cotta, cast stone, and storefronts complete with in-tact decorative hardware.

6. The systems were not tested during the site visit, but they are assumed to be in poor working order.

7. The finishes on the interior of the property are in very poor condition. The interior has suffered from vandalism, mold growth, and water damage. We did not observe any salvageable interior finishes.

441 Penn Street (441) This brick building has a terra cotta balustrade along the parapet that dates to its original pre-1930’s construction. The first floor of this building was modified by the removal of a glass storefront, and the artful installation of a large central door and double hung windows that seamlessly align with the original aesthetic of the building. On the interior, the second floor is in very poor condition and structurally unstable from what appears to have been old roof leaks and possibly a large water leak from a mechanical failure. We were unable to access all the areas on the first and second floors, and the third floor was inaccessible in its entirety.

1. The roof is in poor condition with noted leaks on the rear portion of the roof. The abandoned mechanical equipment is suspect relative to the significant damage seen throughout the building in terms of the water damage.

2. The windows on the front of the building are in good condition, and they too appear to have been painted not too long ago. The third-floor rear windows have been boarded up so their condition was concealed. The first-floor rear extension to the building contain more modern metal windows and are in good condition.

3. The structural framing of all three floors is in very poor condition and some areas are unstable and will require reconstruction.

4. Egress is provided at the front and rear of the property. Like the adjacent properties, it is connected on its second floor to 431 Penn Street, so occupancy separation will be required for multiple tenants.

5. The façade is in good condition, with very little mortar loss, spalls, or cracks in the masonry elements. There are open joints noted along the balustrade of the parapet.

6. Systems were not tested during the site visit and it was noted that the copper lines connecting the roof-top units had been removed. All units were assumed to be non-operational.

7. Finishes were in very poor condition and will require mold remediation throughout. PRELIMINARY OPTIONS To stabilize or mothball the buildings for future development, we analyzed four possible levels of intervention. The options include an allowance for hazardous material abatement. Each of these options was reviewed by our professional cost estimator and an opinion of the probable cost was developed for each approach based on “core and shell” pricing. These options are summarized below and a breakdown of the scope is detailed in the spreadsheets attached to this report. For this estimate, we did include the restoration of the facades which would include items such as cleaning, pointing, wood trim and fenestration repairs, and painting. Since the facades are all in good condition, we recommend deferring this work until later. It is also important to note that the estimates do not include

architectural and engineering fees to develop the construction documents necessary to proceed with the work.

1. Option A - Retain Facades: This includes the demolition of the entire building behind the facades and incorporating a new structural steel frame to support the back of the façade. The back wall of the facades would be parged and parapets/copings would be stabilized to maintain a water tight wall assembly. The work also includes filling the excavated foundation to create a clear site behind the salvaged facades.

The probable cost for Option A is: $1,884,680.

2. Option B – Demolition of Rear Extensions: This option includes the retention of the facades and front portions of the buildings, while removing all rear extensions. The floor and roof framing of 431-33 and 441 would require some stabilization and rebuilding to maintain a safe structure. The roofs would be repaired/replaced as necessary on all three buildings and the roof top equipment would be removed with services terminated for future tie-ins.

The probable cost for Option B is $2,201,281

3. Option C – Selective Demolition & Stabilization: This option includes the demolition of the rear sections of 431-33 and 441, while maintaining 429 in its entirety. The probable cost fort Option C is $2,268,487

4. Option D – Stabilization: The option includes structural repairs and stabilizing all three properties, but demolishing the breezeway on the back of 441. The demolition of the breezeway removes a structure that is difficult to adaptively reuse. This option includes pointing and making masonry repairs, since the bulk of this work is required for the rear portions of all three buildings.

The probable cost for Option D is $2,428,554

ENCLOSURES & CONCLUSIONS Please find attached to this report a set of drawings that provide basic footprints and plans of the buildings, plus some noted observations. Also attached is the order of magnitude cost estimate prepared by International Consultants Inc. (ICI) based on the aforementioned drawings. The estimate is not only detailed by option, but also by address. This can be a useful tool when either looking to phase the work over time, or by creating different combinations of approaches to be taken. All three properties vary in their condition, but can certainly be stabilized for reuse in the future. However, the amount of funds available will dictate the level of effort afforded to each building. Both 429 and 431-33 are in better condition and do not warrant as much intervention for reuse as 441. The size, scale, and location of the buildings would lend themselves to new mercantile or business use readily, while residential will require more interior improvements for plumbing fixtures, separate heating and cooling units, and sprinkler systems based on the number of units. If tenants are not readily available for the entire structures, it is our professional opinion that the three facades are in good condition and can be retained while demolishing the buildings beyond. Their architectural features are important reminders to what fronted Penn Street in the late 19th – early 20th centuries.
