The commission reviewed an application for 350 West Poplar on Oct. 14 and approved replacement only for window openings that currently do not have historic windows — principally the Third‑floor openings — while continuing the remainder of the request for additional on‑site review and documentation.

HPO staff told commissioners that many of the property’s original windows remain and were candidates for repair rather than wholesale replacement. Staff recommended approval of replacement windows only for third‑floor openings that currently lack sashes and for retaining and repairing remaining historic windows on the first and second floors. Staff conditioned approval on protection of surviving historic fabric and on submission of final window and door cut sheets and installation details for staff review.

Commission action: the commission voted to approve replacement of the Third‑floor windows (item A) and to continue item B (replacement/repair work for the remaining windows and doors) to allow a staff site visit with possible commissioner attendance and for the applicant to supply additional interior photographs and documentation of condition.

Next steps: the applicant agreed to coordinate access for a site visit; staff asked for additional documentation to be uploaded to the application portal or emailed to HPO staff ahead of the continued hearing.
