PUBLIC HEARING / QUASI-JUDICIAL. 201 Hamilton Avenue[25PLN-00145]: Recommendation on Applicant’s Request for Major Historic Resource Board Review for the Rehabilitation of an Existing Category 2 Resource Including the Removal of Awnings from Three of the Seven Window Bays, Replacement of the Remaining Awnings, Repair and Replacement In-Kind of Existing Multi-Pane Transom Glass, Repainting of Door Alcoves, Installing New Alcove Lighting, Item 3 Attachment A - September 11, 2025 Draft HRB Minutes Packet Pg. 24 City of Palo Alto Page 2 New Backlit Signage Above Entryway Door, and Sidewalk Planters. CEQA Status: Exempt From CEQA Per Section 15301 (Existing Facilities). Zoning District: Downtown Commercial [CD-C (GF)(P)]. Mr. Switzer explained the 201 Hamilton Avenue building was constructed in 1909 by T. B. Downing and Sons. There was no architect indicated but the builder was E. A. Hettinger. The Post Office occupied the first floor until 1928. Changes have been made predominantly on the first floor in the 70s and 80s. The project proposed to remove all 6 single bay awnings on Emerson Street and 3 single bay canopies on Hamilton Avenue, replace 2 double bay canopies on Hamilton Avenue, add new signage on the corner, repaint building entries and alcoves, add 2 new pendant lights in entry alcoves, and replace the door on the Emerson Street entry. The new signage above the front entry door was proposed to be backlit. There were material samples for the Board to look at. Slides showed the existing conditions and proposed changes on the corner elevation, Emerson Street, and Hamilton Avenue. Renderings of the striped awnings were shown. The architectural plans noted a different color for the painting of the alcoves versus the color chosen for the fabric. For consistency, staff recommended utilizing the fabric color rather than the color swatch on the material board. Direction is being sought for the preferred width of the stripe: 16 inches or 9 inches. Staff recommend the Board recommend to the Director of Planning and Development Services that the project conforms to the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation Senior Architect & Project Manager Amanda Bridges noted that awnings were not part of the original construction but had been part of the building for a long time. All historic elements of the building, including the initial engraving, will be maintained. Ms. Bridges felt painting the alcoves and entrances was helpful for wayfinding. There will be a café and bookstore by the 2 remaining awnings. There will be a slight increase in height of the entrance on Emerson Street, which is necessary for functionality as there will be large-scale artwork. Ms. Bridges had not been able to update the paint sample but will be sticking to the golden yellow color of the fabric. Multiple renderings were shown. Pictures of nearby businesses were shown to highlight the use of bright colors and striped awnings. Board Member Ulinskas asked if the other 6 colors on the exterior finished materials page were original to the building or if other colors were being introduced. Board Member Ulinskas questioned if the frame and storefront system will be painted the P3 color or just the door. Board Member Willis asked why yellow was chosen. Ms. Bridges confirmed the only color being introduced on the exterior is the yellow paint for the alcoves and the yellow-and-white awnings. The storefront frame will get painted along with the door and alcove. Ms. Bridges explained that yellow is consistent with the branding of Ursula Café, which is Hauser and Wirth’s café and bookstore. Mr. Switzer said the distinguishing factor on the exterior finish materials is field. Field color can be existing conditions. P4 is the terracotta on the alcoves; P3 is the new introduced color; P2 and P1 are the existing conditions on the building; and P5, P6, and P7 are for the signage and awning colors. Item 3 Attachment A - September 11, 2025 Draft HRB Minutes Packet Pg. 25 City of Palo Alto Page 3 PUBLIC COMMENT No requests to speak. Board Member Ulinskas had been to the Hauser and Wirth gallery in Los Angeles and felt it was a vital and active cultural hub. Board Member Ulinskas noted the gallery can function for events and community gatherings as well as a bookstore and café. Board Member Ulinskas said the 16-inch awning stripe width was preferrable. Vice Chair Rohman liked the yellow awnings and preferred the wider 16-inch stripes. Chair Eagleston-Cieslewicz agreed the wider awning stripe looked nice and said the proposal was consistent with the SOI standards. Board Member Willis liked getting rid of most of the awnings to open up the windows but was concerned about the white and yellow color scheme being difficult to keep clean. Board Member Willis preferred the wider stripe as keeping in line with the scale of the building. Board Member Willis suggested a different color on the awning in place of white to help keep it clean. Board Member Willis was happy to have another bookstore in town but hoped it enhances Bell’s Books and is not competitive. Chair Eagleston-Cieslewicz asked whether to include a striping width recommendation in the motion. Mr. Switzer said the discussion about the stripe width was sufficient. : Chair Eagleston-Cieslewicz moved, seconded by Vice Chair Rohman, to find the project at 201 Hamilton Avenue to be consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Historic Rehabilitation. : The motion passed 5-0-0. 3.
