Board clears storefront revision at 319 South Gay Street with clarity on mullion alignment
Loading...
Summary
A downtown storefront revision at 319 South Gay Street was approved; the board added a condition to clarify window construction and to ensure horizontal storefront mullions are consistent across the façade.
The Design Review Board approved a reduced‑scope revision for 319 South Gay Street on April 15, accepting staff recommendations and asking for a clarification that horizontal storefront mullions align across the façade.
Staff said the current submission pulls back several prior proposed upper‑level changes and retains most historic window and storefront conditions on the ground floor; the owner provided an image of the intended main wood door. Amy Sherrill, representing the applicant, said the revision was a simplification driven by interior use changes on upper floors and that signage and final door details would return for separate review.
Board members discussed storefront rhythm and level changes along Gay Street and Wall Avenue and asked staff to refine condition language. One board member moved to approve per staff recommendation and add a condition that the horizontal storefront mullions be consistent at door heads and across the façade; the motion was seconded and carried.
The board’s approval notes that signage will be reviewed later and that the final wood door design will be returned for board review.
