TMS Architects' Shannon Alther presented plans to add an elevator to the south side of 59 Harbor Road to improve owner accessibility. Alther told the Commission there will be "approximately 28 s.f. of permanent disturbance in the buffer with about 50 s.f. of temporary disturbance during construction."
