Elizabeth A. Neville Southold Town Clerk RESOLUTION ,IULY 30, 2002 V-512 RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town of Southold hereby authorizes and directs Town Clerk Elizabeth Neville to issue Request for Proposals (RFP'S) for the Public's Input and Proposals regarding the Restoration of the Historic Whitaker House. TRAVELER STREET MAIN ROAD State Route 25 {~ ~ ,~' S 0 UTH 0 LD, TOWN HALL-:~,,: ~o.oo, I TOWN OF SOUTHOLD WHITAKER THOMPSON HOUSE RESTORATION PROJECT NARRATIVE The Town of Southold acquired the historic Whitaker-Thompson house located at 52875 Main Road in Southold on September 14, 1998. The location of the house, adjacent to the Southold Town Hall, offered the Town Government an opportunity to expand it's overcrowded existing building and sparked much debate about the future of the house within Town Hall and in the community. After considering a wide variety of options the town Board and Supervisor have committed themselves to a plan of adaptive ruse and historic preservation for this significant historic structure. The existing house will not be altered or expanded but its present 3,355 square feet of floor space will be converted from its former residential use to use as Town offices, small meeting rooms and exhibition galleries, showcasing the story of Southold Town from its founding in 1640. The Whitaker-Thompson house, known locally as "The Anchorage" is best known as the former home of Southold Town's first historian, Dr. Epher Whitaker, who also served as pastor of Southold's First Presbyterian Church in the late nineteenth century. Located prominently on the northeast comer of Main Road and Horton's Lane in S outhold's National Register Historic district, the adaptive reuse and exterior restoration of this house will be an extremely important part of the Town of Southold's plan to preserve and enhance a highly visible part of Southold's principal historic district. The careful and authentic restoration of this historic structure will help set the standard for future restoration projects along the length of Main Road in Southold. The house was originally built in about 1790 as a three quarter plan, one and one- half story gable roof cottage that is typical of many such cottages on Long Island's North Fork. Subsequent members of the Whitaker and Thompson families built additions to the original structure, extending the cottage's gable roof to the east in about 1860 and adding a full two and a half story wing to the west in about 1890. The house survives today with most of its late nineteenth century additions. By the time the Town of Southold acquired the house in 1998, the last owner had divided the building into three separate apartments. At the time the house was converted to multi-family use, the original wooden window sash were removed and replaced with single light double hung aluminum replacement windows, and the original clapboard siding was covered with aluminum siding. Over the years the roof has been covered with two layers of asphalt shingles nailed over the original wood shingles, The last layer of asphalt shingles is in an advanced state of deterioration and has begun to leak causing serious damage to the interior plasterwork in the original portion of the house. The Victorian cornice gutters have been covered over by later re-roofing projects and modem aluminum gutters have been installed at the eves, Years of minimal and deferred maintenance have taken their toll on this important house, but the proposed restoration by the Town of Southold will assure its preservation for the enjoyment of future generations. All work proposed to be done on the house will carefully conform to the Secretary of the Interior's standards. Included in the proposed restoration and adaptive reuse for the tfouse are all new mechanical systems including heating, air conditioning, electrical wiring and plumbing; as well as a new kitchen and bathrooms. All new work will be done in such a way as to preserve as much historic interior woodwork as possible so that visitors to the house will be able to see all the various periods of construction that the house went through. The exterior of the house is to be restored to its circa 1890 appearance. A number of historic photographs taken at the turn of the twentieth century exist and will guide the accurate restoration of the house's exterior. Restoration work to be done on the exterior inclu_des the removal of all aluminum siding and repair work to the original wooden clapboard siding; the removal of all aluminum replacement windows and the custom millings of wooden sash to replicate the original; the milling of custom adjustable louver shutters to match those seen in the historic photographs and to be hung on appropriate period type hardware; the restoration of three small doorway porches also seen in the historic photographs; Note: No ground disturbance will occur as part of this restoration project other than exposing the original brick support piers of the three porches, the restoration of the house's wooden shingle roof and built-in cornice gutter system; a scientific analysis of the house's exterior paint colors from the circa 1890 period and the repainting of the exterior in those colors; the reconstruction of the now missing picket fence along the Main Road side of the property as seen in the historic photographs.

Box t179 Main Road Southotd, New York 11971 Re: Whitaker-Thompson House 52875 Main Road Southold, NY Dear Mr. Richter:, This report is submitted in compliance with our agreement signed July 9, 2001. It presents our findings regarding the structural inspection and study of the subject building. BACKGROUND The Whitaker-Thompson house is considered to be a building of some historical significance. In the course of its history it has served as a single family home and has also been modified to function as a multi-family structure. Construction features appear to reveal that the mid section of the building is the oldest and is likely to be the "original" building. Currently the building is not occupied and has fallen into disrepair. To the best of our knowledge, its last use was as a multi-family building. In that use, several years ago we conducted an examination of it for a previous client. Since that time it has fallen into greater dedine. It is important to note that our mission in conducting this study was not to evaluate any historical aspects of the building. Rather, we have solely looked at its structural functionality, and reported only on that. The absence of a discussion on the building's historical nature and elements should not he construed as ignoring them. We leave it to appropriately qualified preservationists to pass judgement on the quality of the structure in view of its history and current state of repair. Because the Town's anticipated futura use of the building might include placing it in service as a C1 Business Occupancy/Use Construction Classification structure, conformance or non- conformance with the structural needs of that classification was undertaken. On the basis of our knowledge of the building, we believed the single most important factor to evaluate wes its capability to handle the live loads associated with such an occupancy. Live loads are those stemming from people and furnishings placed in a structure. Other loads include dead loads (the weight of the structure itself), seismic loads, snow loads, and wind loads, in a WHITAKER-THOMPSON HOUSE REPORT I building like the VVhitaker-Thompson house, deficits in the ability to handle live loads are judged to be among the most costly to correct. Additionally, all loads must eventually be handled by the foundation system. So an examination of the foundation and a review of soil conditions was also undertaken. Applicable live loads in the C1 Business Occupancy Classification are as follows: Business Machine Equipment Office Space Record Storage Corridors Exitways Air Conditioning Spaces Fan Rooms Lobbies Restrooms Vaults Placed in Office Spaces Roof Snow Load (pro-rated to slope) 100 pounds per square foot of floor area 50 pounds per square foot of floor ama 120 pounds per square foot of floor area 100 pounds per square foot of floor area 100 pounds per square foot of floor area 200 pounds per square foot of floor area 100 pounds per square foot of floor area 100 pounds per square foot of flonr area 60 pounds per square foot of floor area 250 pounds per square foot of floor area 30 pounds per square foot of roof area In reviewing this data it is apparent that the minimum live load carrying ability is 50 pounds per square foot (PSF). Unless the future design can be very specific about placement of normal office space, business machine equipment, cenidors, etc., beginning an examination for adequacy assuming a typical live load value of 100 PSF was viewed as prudent. That is the approach we follc-.-.~.c-J. We have, however, referenced 50 PSF in some cases. It should be further noted that where we refer to "total load" we mean the sum of the "dead load" plus the "live load.' In some oases our analysis was forced to consider the total load only because tho live load capability was found to be so marginal. Our methodology was as follows: · Physical site inspection conducted over several days to examine basic structure on day one, foundation system on day two, and soils on day throe. · Office study, including tho approximated modeling of our findings on a structural engineering computer program to calculate various theoretical load carrying capabilities of the existing structure. Such theoretical loads do not necessarily consider the etfects of detedoration from wood destroying insects, decay, etc. Hence when a theoretical value is shown to be less than that necessary, the problem may be further compounded by wood deterioration conditions found in many older structures. Similarly, even accep~bie theoretical values may be adversely impacted by such wood deterioration conditions, · Development of a report of findings and conclusions. FINDINGS FOUNDATION and SOIL The western foundation area forms a cellar under the building. It consists of old brick masonry. Some of the foundation construction appears to involve aspects of an old cistern or cisterns. Some areas of the foundation have been breached and are broken. Because the most western pert of the foundation is offset to the interior and a small crawl space exists beyond, it is likely that pert if not all of this end of the building was originally constructed over a crawt space that was deepened to form the cellar. WHITAKER-THOMPSON HOUSE REPORT 2 This port of the foundation wall generally is two wythes wide, approximately 7 feet 2 inches high, and retains approximately 6 feet of exterior soil. The front, central cellar area employs foundation construction that includes rubble stone set with mortar. AbOve the stone approximately five to eleven courses of brick masonry have been placed. There is evidence of cracking of sections of the brick. The rear, centmt foundation area and the eastern end of the structure include earth floor crawl spaces. Foundation construction consists of brick masonry, some of which has been laid up without mortar. Most of the mortar in this area was found to have become considerably weakened and can be easily removed. Spof-excavation around the perimeter of the building found the masonry to be quite deteriorated. Depth of excavation vaded from 12 to 30 inches, but this generally was found to apparently locate the bottom of the foundation. In virtually all cases below ground masonry in direct soil contact had deteriorated to the point of having questionable load canying capability. In no case did our excavation reveal the presence of a wall footing. We did not undertake soil bodngs. Rather, wa used two different typo ponetrating devices to approximate the load carrying ability of the soils beneath the structure. In general, it appears a value of approximately 4000 pounds per square foot was the prudently interpreted representative finding. FRAMING Whitaker-Thompson house is a wood framed structure. The ~dest port of the building appears to employ post and girt or braced frame oonstructioo. The east and wast ends employ more conventional stud wall framing that may incorporate balloon or platfoml features. First Story Floor Structure The first floor west end structure employs flour joists that are theoretically capable of a live load of 91 PSF. However, girder support of parts of the floor structure is only capable of 15 PSF live load. Hence while some framing is relatively strong indepondent of its means of support, the actual support Itself does not permit recognizing the full structural capobility of what it carries. This is also an area where termite damage to floor framing north of the chimney base was noted. A similar condition occurs at the front, central first floor area. Here the flcor joist framing is theoretically capable of 100 PSF live load but a central supporting member for it is only capable of 15 PSF total load. A secondary issue in this area involves the long term and chronic water leak taking place at the water service piping. Ensuing dampness from evaporation of the leaking water has raised the moisture content in the wood framing to values of 68 to 87 percent. These values are three to four times the maximum value acknowledged to be problematic for preservation of wood from the effects of wood decay. Decay fungus organisms are visible on ports of the framing. The rear, central crawl space also appears to have considerable decay fungus organisms present. The first floor east crawi space floor joists ware found to he theoretically capable of a live load of 57 PSF. WHITAKER-THOMPSON HOUSE REPORT 3 Second Story Floor Structure The second story west end floor structure was found to have a theoretical live load capability of 47 PSF. The central second story floor framing was found to have a theoretical t0ta/load carrying capability of 18 PSF. The second story east end floor structure was found to have a theoretical live load capability of 24 PSF. Roof Structure West end roof framing was found to have a theoretical totalload cam/ing capability of 19 PSF. Central roof framing was found to have a theoretical live lead capability of 30 PSF. East end roof framing was found to have a theoretical total lead capability of 15 PSF. Visual Findings Applicable to the Wood Frame Structural System A bullet list of framing deficiencies noted dudng our fieldwork included the following: · Structural components poorly reinforced in an attempt to con.ct past problems. · Water damaged framing in the vicinity of plumbing installations. · Inappropriate wood post support of load carrying beams. · Inappropriate base support of load carrying vertical wood members. · Poor connection of floor joists to beams by inadequate toenailing of the membem. · Inappropriate headering at some window and doorway locations, affecting load canying capability at these areas. · Absence of ddge support at some roof framing. · Horizontal shear splits and some cracks noted in roof rafters. · Roof framing damage has occurred from roof covedng failure and leakage. WOOD DESTROYING INSECT AND ORGANISM OBSERVATIONS While no active wood destroying insect problem was noted in the building, past damage from termites was relatively widespread. It included termite damage to floor joists north of the chimney at the west end. Termite damage was also found in upper reaches of the building, specifically within framing at the east wall of the western hallway. Long term dampness and chmic water leakage has exacerbated wood decay by providing an environment conducive to wood decay organism development. The high moisture levets found in the framing over the cellar and crawl space coupled with the presence of mold and fungus demonstrates that decay and potential decay conditions have affected considerable parts of the framing. NEW YORK S TA TE ENERGY CONSERVATION CONS TRUCTION CODE COMPLIANCE The present structural system contains a considerable amount of blown in place insulation. Where specific observation could be made, the material has not always consistently filled the areas into which it was blown. Even if the areas ware completely filled, the wall and roof WHITAKER-THOMPSON HOUSE REPORT 4 structures could be expected to have an R-value of approximately 11. This is considered to be less than present day requirements. In addiiton, floor framing over the collar and crawl space areas has no insulation. ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES Although environmental issues do not generally affect the structural aspects of buildings, work planned for a building's structure can be impacted by such conditions. There are at least three conditions we detected at this site that must be further evaluated and managed in order to plan any structural rehabilitation. They are: 1. The apparent presence of an underground fuel oil storage tank at the northwest exte~or comer of the building. A strong odor of fuel oil is apparent in the cellar soil near the tank location, and the soil appears stained. Foundation work ultimately planned near the tank must consider the tank's condition before proceeding. 2. Remnants of likely asbestos-containing insulation noted over the collar floor. Only laboratory testing can contirm the presence of asbestos, but the observed matedal in our experience has proven positive for asbestos content. The debds we obsen/ed was considered to be fdabie and, if shown to contain asbestos, is likely to require appropriate abatement and clean up before any work can proceed in the cellar and crawt space area. 3. Past spot checking using wet chemistry detection swabs for lead containing paint proved to be positive. Although not an unusual finding in older buildings, any planned demolition work should be managed in a manner consistent with reducing the dsk of exposure and contamination for personnel and surrounding areas. CONCLUSIONS and RECOMMENDATIONS The present foundation is exhibiting deterioration that is affecting its ability to can'y the currently imposed loads. It does not appear to have foutings and is not sufficiently deep in the ground in many areas to lessen the impact of frost damage. It would be unwise to expect that a foundation that is an amalgam of materials in some areaS will competently carry the increased loads from a new use. Deteriorating bdck and mortar will not provide good sen/ico with increased axial loads. Deterioration-related weaknesses in the matedal compromise its ability to resist laterally induced loads from retention of soil. Installation of a new foundation will result in a safer and more reliable means of transferring building loads into the ground. No part of the first floor structure has the capability to handle a live load of 100 PSF, although approximately one third of it (the eastern end) has the necessary minimum capability of 50 PSF. VVhile some areas owe their weakness to structural members that may he relatively simple to replace or reinforce, other areas would demand considerable rebuilding. Beer in mind that any rebuilding work will necessarily require nearly individualized examination of each existing member and its connections to ensure proper integrity. No part of the second floor structure has the copability to handle a live load of 100 PSF. Approximately one third of it (the westem end) could, with some modifications, be made to achieve the minimum capability of 50 PSF. One third of the roof structure appears to comply with the needed Icod canying capability. The remaining areas have insufficient strength. WHITAKER-THOMPSON HOUSE REPORT 5 Preventive treatment measures and repair must be undertaken to con'ect wood destroying insect and organism conditions. Environmental dsk aspects at this property must be further evaluated mgardlese of the final plan for the building. Of the throe cited, the underground fuel oil storage tank condition is the most important to assess, as its implications are the most costly from the standpoint of present do/lam. Depending on the decision regarding the building's future, management of the possible asbestos and lead paint issues can he planned. Lastly, a consideration of specific building use from an amhitectural standpoint would need to he coordinated with the structural findings not only to ensure placement of areas of loading coincident with framing capable of supporting them, but to ensure that appropriate ceiling heights could he achieved as well. Some ceiling heights currently available in the building am likely to conflict with those needed for partJcutar uses. It has been our past experience that the cost for the work discussed here exceeds the cost for achieving similar requirements in new construction, as well as the cost of demolition and removal of the present structure.

A museum-like use that would allow the interior to be restored and remain intact. The many small rooms offer an opportunity and flexibility to create viewing rooms and "separate" use areas. · Of course the structure should remain in the exact location it is in today and could be restored to the gorgeous condition shown in the second photograph of the RFP (including the wonderful fencing and "landscaping"). The front yards may be utilized as areas for small scale sculpture displays. · I visited a small two-story Historical Building in Bermuda last April. This structure was used as a learning place/museum to explain Bermuda's role in the American Civil War. Although this was not a "Fun" Center, it was absolutely beautiful and effective. As one walked into this building, you could not help but feel you were back in the past. This "environment" helps visitors focus on the displayed material and to really understand the conditions of Bermuda and it's relationship with the North and the South. · The First Floor may focus on the history of Southold; how about a giant potato displayed in the "Lobby" that several people can sit in and observe a tremendous 5 minute film about the Southold farming industry. The local High Schools have programs that allow students to create video films. A rotating set of films may be installed for viewing. · How about an intense Transportation/Commerce Room to document the "circulation" and industrial history of Southold. An enormous train set, street travel, and flight history models would be interesting to any age visitor. · The Second Floor must be u~llzed and may display local talent in art, photography, sports, music, film/video, sculpture, etc,. Local schools could have rotating displays for children's work. Maybe a huge sit-in clam with ear phones for listening to local music production. Second Floor rooms may also be used for small Art and Music classes. * Did I mention a neat Gift Shop that sells only local "manufacturers" handmade merchandise. · A working blacksmith in the restored Barn/Garage.

AUG 2 9 Southold Town Cleric Re: Request for Proposal Whitaker Thompson House Restoration From: Frank Notaro & Ron Rossi (Historical Restorations) STATEMENT OF INTENT: Our proposal for the Whitaker Thompson House is based on the Town of Southold requirements for additional office space. We intend to provide the town with office space in the Whitaker House including the construction of a 22' x 30' two story addition. This custom designed office space will be leased back to the town of Southold at fair market rates, along with a future buy back option. The process we will use in restoring the Whitaker House is the same one used in our recent restoration/renovation of the "Joseph Horton House" located on Main Rd. in the historic district of Southold. PROCESS: The project will consist of the following. Demolition with sensitivity to preservation. a. Peel off the layers exterior and interior. b. Salvage all trim, wood, doors, & hardware where possible. Stabilize the structure a. Evaluate structural defects to accommodate the use of the building as a government office. b. Renovate to correct structural defects. 3. Exterior restoration with a period approach (ca. 1890). a. Restore or replace clapboard siding b. Reconstruct porches and trim c. Replace windows d, Install period appropriate gutter system e, Install picket pence on south & west side Interior restoration where possible and renovation or alteration to meet new use, a. Recondition or replicate interior trim paneling, doors and stairways. b. Recondition or replace floors as needed. c. Redesign of interior spaces to accommodate government offices, i.e. handicapped access. d. New mechanical systems: Electrical, Plumbing, HVAC, Pre-wire telephone & cable. New 22' x 30' two stow addition on the rear of the building for additional office space. This space will include an elevator and toilet for handicap access. The basement of the addition will be built to provide secure and conditioned space for archival storage. 6. Donation of the historic Carriage house (ca. 1810 to 1820) to the Southold Historical Society. PROPOSAL: We propose to offer $1501000.00 to purchase the building and land. Alt construction as described in our "Process" witl be completed with private funds. Proposal will be contingent upon the Town of Southold providing a "Letter of Intent to Lease the Building'L. CONCLUSION: The Town of Southold will be included in the planning process regarding placement and use of the office spaces. We intend to bring the building up to the current State Building Code where possible, consistent with sensitivity to the historic aspects of the building.

Southold welcomes all submissions and encourages its own citizens to actively participate in the process. The Town of Southold owns the Whitaker house and property and decided that restoring it is an imperative. The Whitaker house was initially purchased by the town as a potential expansion site for Town Hall. However, the current Town Board has determined that such an expansion would not be the most economically viable solution for the restoration of the property. To that end, the Supervisor and Town Board are interested in the ideas and input of the citizens of Southold and the general public for the reuse of the Whitaker House and property. The Whitaker House property comprises approximately one acre in the Town of Southold. It is located immediately west of Southold Town Hall in the town's Historic District. It stands on the northwest comer of the intersection of Main Road (Route 25) and Horton's Lane. The house, constructed in stages beginning ca. 1790 - 1890, is listed on the State and National Register for Historic Places. The persons eventually responsible for rehabilitating the Whitaker House and property would agree to retain the historic character of the building and to restore the accompanying historic carriage house ca. 1810-20. Some of the suggestions for restoring the property might include the sale of the building into private ownership or the expansion of local government facilities for public use or removal to another site. The proposed ideas should be compatible with the local HB District zoning regulations and current building codes and regulations. All ideas concerning the preservation of the historic structures will be given serious consideration. An information package about the building and its condition may be obtained at the Town Clerk's Office (contact by phone at 631-765-1800). Written letters of response including (1) a one page (maximum) cover sheet including the interested party's contact information, and (2) a one page (maximum) summary sheet, with any further details about the proposed idea and its scope included as attachments, are requested by AUGUST 29, 2002 by 10:00 A.M.. Due to the nature of the request, early submissions are encouraged. Please address all correspondence to: Whitaker House Ideas Town Clerk's Office, Town Hall Town of Southold 53095 Main Road Southold, NY 11971, The Town Supervisor will review all submitted ideas. Those ideas of interest to the Town Board may be pursued further by soliciting more detailed proposals, perhaps leading to a formal Request for Proposals. Dated: July 30, 2002 ELIZABETH A.

R~ D__~ at tH r yEC TOWN OF SOUTHOLD WHITAKER THOMPSON HOUSE IO~STORATION PROJECT NARRATIVE The Town of Southold acquired the historic Wbitaker-Thompson house located at 52875 Main Road in Southold on September 14, 1998. The location of the house, adjacent to the Southold Town Hall, offered the Town Government an opportunity to expand it's overcrowded existing building and sparked much debate about the future of the house within Town Hall and in the community. After considering a wide variety of options the town Board and Supervisor have committed themselves to a plan of adaptive ruse and historic preservation for this significant historic structure. The existing house will not be altered or expanded but its present 3,355. square feet of floor space will be converted from its former residential use to u~ as Town offices, small meeting rooms and exhibition galleries, showcasing the ~{t~ry of Southold Town from its founding in 1640. The Whitaker-Thompson house, known locally as "The Anchorage" is best ~known as the former home of Southoid Town's first historian, Dr. Epher Whitaker, who also served as pastor of Southold's First Presbyterian Church in the late nineteenth century. Located prominently on the northeast comer of Main Road and Horton's Lane in Southold's National Register Historic district, the adaptive reuse and exterior restoration of this house will be an extremely important part of the Town of Southold's plan to preserve and enhance a highly visible part of Southold's principal historic district, ri'he careful and attthentic restoration of this historic structure will help set the standard for future restoratiou projects along the length of Main Road in Southold. The house was originally built in about 1790 as a three quat~ter plan, one and one- half story gable roof cottage that is typical of many such cottages on Long Islaud's North Fork. Subsequent members of the Whitaker and Thompson families built additions to the original structure, extending the cottage's gable roof to the east in about 1860 and adding a full two and a half story wing to the west in about 1890. The house survives today with most of its late nineteenth century additions. By the time thc Town of Southold acquired the honse m 1998, the last owner had divided the building into three separate apartmenls. At the time the house was converted to multi-family use, the original wooden window sash were removed and replaced with single light double huug aluminum replacement windows, and the original clapboard siding was covered with ahmfinum siding. Over lhe years the roof has been covered with two layers of asphalt shingles nailed over the original wood shingles. The last layer of asphalt shingles is in an advanced state of deterioration and has begun to leak causing serious damage to the interior plasterwork in the original portion of the house. The Victorian cornice gutters have been covered over by later re-roofing projects and modern aluminum gutters have been installed at the eves. Years of minimal and deferred maintenance have taken their toll on this important house, but the proposed restoration by the Town of Southold will assure its preservation for the enjoyment of future generations. All work proposed to be done on the house will carefully conform to the Secretary of the Interior's standards. Included in the proposed restoration and adaptive reuse for the house are all new mechanical systems including heating, air conditioning, electrical wiring and plumbing; as well as a new kitchen and bathrooms. All new work will be done in such a way as to preserve as much historic interior woodwork as possible so that visitors to the house will be able to see all the various periods of construction that the house went through. The exterior of the house is to be restored to its circa 1890 appearance. A number of historic photographs taken at the turn of the twentieth century exist and will guide the accurate restoration of the house's exterior. Restoration work to be done on the exterior includes the removal of all aluminum siding and repair work to the original wooden clapboard siding; the removal of all aluminnm replacement windows and the custom millings of wooden sash to replicate the original; the milling of custom adjustable louver shutters to match those seen in the historic photographs and to be hung on appropriate period type hardware; the restoration of three small doorway porches also seen in the historic photographs; Note: No ground disturbc~ncc will oceur as part (f thi,s' restoration prqject other than exposing the original brick stq~port piers o/'the three porches the restoration of the house's wooden shingle roof and built-in cornice gutter system; a scientific analysis of the house s exterior paint colors from Ihe circa 1890 period and the repainting of the exterior in those colors; the reconstrnction of the now missing picket fence along the Main Road side of the property as seen in the historic t)hotographs.

Box 1179 Main Road Southold, New York 11971 Re: Whitaker-Thompson House 52875 Main Road Southold, NY Dear Mr. Richte~ This report is submitted in compliance with our agreement signed July 9, 2001. It presents our findings regarding the structural inspection and study of the subject building. BACKGROUND The Whitaker-Thompson house is considered to be a building of some historical significance. In the course of its history it has served as a single family home and has also been modified to function as a multi-family structure. Construction features appear to reveal that the mid section of the building is the oldest and is likely to be the "original" building. Currently the building is not occupied and has fallen into disrepair. To the best of our knowledge, its last use was as a multi-family building. In that use, several years ago w~ conducted an examination of it for a previous client. Since that time it has fallen into greater decline. It is important to note that our mission in conducting this study was not to evaluate any historical aspects of the building. Rather, we have solely looked at its structural functionality, and reported only on that. The absence of a discussion on the building's historical nature and elements should not be construed as ignodng them. We leave it to appropriately qualified preservationists to pass judgement on the quality of the structure in view of its history and current state of repair. Because the Town's anticipated future use of the building might include placing it in service as a C1 Business Occupancy/Use Construction Classification structure, conformance or non- conformance with the structural needs of that classification was undertaken. On the basis of our knowledge of the building, wa believed the single most important factor to evaluate was its capability to handle the live loads associated with such an occupancy, Live loads are those stemming from people and furnishings placed in a structure, Other loads include dead loads (the weight of the structure itself), seismic loads, snow loads, and wind loads. In a WHITAKER-THOMPSON HOUSE REPORT 1 building like the Whitaker-Thompson house, deficits in the ability to handle live loads ara judged to be among the most costly to correct. Additionally, all loads must eventually be handled by the foundation system. So an examination of the foundation and a review of soil conditions was also undertaken. Applicable live loads in the C1 Business occupancy Classification are as follows: Business Machine Equipment Office Space Record Storage Corridors Exitways Air Conditioning Spaces Fan Rooms Lobbies Restrooms Vaults Pla~,d in Office Spaces Roof Snow Load (pro-rated to slope) 100 pounds per square foot of floor area 50 pounds per square foot of floor area 120 pounds per square foot of floor area 1 O0 pounds per square foot of floor area 100 pounds per square foot of floor area 200 pounds par square foot of floor area 100 pounds par square foot of floor araa 100 pounds per square foot of floor area 60 pounds per square foot of floor area 250 pounds per square foot of floor area 30 pounds per square foot of roof araa in reviewing this data it is apparent that the minimum live load carrying ability is 50 pounds per squara foot (PSF). Unless the future design can be very specific about placement of normal office space, business machine equipment, corridors, etc., beginning an examination for adequacy assuming a typical live load value of 100 PSF was viewed as prudent. That is the approach we followed. We have, however, referenced 50 PSF in some cases. It should be further noted that whera we refer to "total load" we mean the sum of the "dead load" plus the "live load," In some cases our analysis was forced to consider the total load only because the live load capability was found to be so marginal, Our methodology was as follows: · Physical site inspection conducted over several days to examine basic structure on day one, foundation system on day two, and soils on day three. · Office study, including the approximated modeling of our tindings on a structural engineering computer program to calculate vadous theoretical load carrying capabilities of the existing structura. Such theoretical loads do not necessarily consider the effects of defedoration from wood destroying insects, decay, etc. Hence when a theoretical value is shown to be less than that necessary, the problem may be further compounded by wood deterioration conditions found in many older structures. Similarly, even acceptable theoretical values may be adversely impacted by such wood deterioration conditions. · Development of a report of findings and conclusions. FINDINGS FOUNDATION and SOIL The western foundation area forms a cellar under the building. It consists of old bdck masonry. Some of the foundation construction appears to involve aspects of an old cistern or cisterns. Some areas of the foundation have been breached and ara broken. Because the most western part of the foundation is offset to the intedor and a small crawl space exists beyond, it is likely that part if not all of this end of the building was originally constructed over a crawl space that was deepened to form the cellar. WHITAKER-THOMPSON HOUSE REPORT 2 This part of the foundation wall generally is tw~ wythes wide, approximately 7 feat 2 inches high, and retains approximately 6 feat of extedor soil. The front, central cellar area employs foundation construction that includes rubble stone set with mortar. Above the stone approximately five to eleven courses of bock masonry have been placed. There is evidence of cracking of sections of the bdck. The rear, central foundation area and the eastern end of the structure include earth floor crawl spaces. Foundation construction consists of bdck masonry, some of which has been laid up without mortar. Most of the mortar in this area was found to have become considerably weakened and can be easily removed. Spot-excavation around the perimeter of the building found the masonry to be quite deteriorated. Depth of excavation vaded from 12 to 30 inches, but this generally was found to apparently locate the bottom of the foundation. In virtually all cases below ground masonry in direct soil contact had deteriorated to the point of having questionable load canying capability. In no case did our excavation reveal the presence of a wall fcoting. We did not Ur~dertake soil bodngs. Rather, wa used two different type penetrating devices tod approximate the load carrying ability of the soils beneath the structure. In general, it appears a value of approximately 4000 pounds per square foot was the prudently interpreted representative finding. FRAMING Whitaker-Thompson house is a wood framed structure. The oldest part of the building appears to employ post and girt or braced frame construction. The east and west ends employ more conventional stud wall framing that may incorporate balloon or plaffomn features. First Story Floor Structure The first floor wast end structure employs floor joists that are theoretically capable of a live load of 91 PSF, However, girder support of parts of the floor structure is only capable of 15 PSF live Icad. Hence while some framing is relatively strong independent of its means of support, the actual support itself does not permit recognizing the full structural capability of what it cardes, This is also an area where termite damage to floor framing north of the chimney base was noted. A similar condition occurs at the front, central first floor area, Here the floor joist framing is theoretically capable of 100 PSF live load but a central supporting member for it is only capable of 15 PSF total load. A secondary issue in this area involves the long term and chronic water leak taking place at the water service piping, Ensuing dampness from evaporation of the leaking water has raised the moisture content in the wood framing to values of 68 to 87 pement. These values are threa to four fimes the maximum value acknowledged to be problematic for preservation of wx~3d from the effects of w~)d decay. Decay fungus organisms are visible on parts of the framing. The rear, central crawt space also appears to have considerable decay fungus organisms present. The first floor east orawl space floor joists ware found to be theoretically capable of a live load of 57 PSF. WHITAKER-THOMPSON HOUSE REPORT 3 Second Stor~ Floor Structure The second story west end floor structure was found to have a theoretical live load capability of 47 PSF. The central second story floor framing was found to have a theoretical total load carrying capability of 18 PSF. The second story east end floor structure was found to have a theoretical live load capability of 24 PSF. Roof Structure West end roof framing was found to have a theoretical total load carrying capability of 19 PSF. Central roof framing was ft~und to have a theoretical live load capability of 30 PSF. East end roof framing was found to have a theoretical total load capability of 15 PSF. V';sual Findings Applicable to the Wood Frame Structural System A bullet list of framing deficiencies noted dudng our tieldwork included the following: Structural components poody reinforced in an attempt to correct past problems. Water damaged framing in the vicinity of plumbing installations. Inappropriate wood post support of load carrying bearus. Inappropriate base support of load carrying vertical wood members. Poor connection of floor joists to beams by inadequate toenailing of the members. inappropriate headering at some window and doorway locations, affecting load carr,:nng capability at these areas. Absence of ridge support at some roof framing. Horizontal shear splits and some cracks noted in roof rafters. Roof framing damage has occurred from roof covedng failure and leakage. WOOD DESTROYING INSECT AND ORGANISM OBSERVATIONS While no active wood destroying insect problem was noted in the building, past damage from termites was relatively widespread. It included termite damage to floor joists north of the chimney at the west end, Termite damage was also found in upper reaches of the building, specitically within framing at the east wall of the western hallway. Long term dampness and chronic water leakage has exacerbated wood decay by providing an environment conducive to wood decay organism development. The high moisture levels found in the framing over the cellar and crawl space coupled with the presence of mold and fungus demonstrates that decay and potential decay conditions have affected considerable parts of the framing. NEW YORK STATE ENERGY CONSERVATION CONSTRUCTION CODE COMPLIANCE The present structural system contains a considerable amount of blown in place insulation. Where specitic observation could be made, the matedal has not always consistently tilled the areas into which it was blown. Even if the areas were completely tilled, the wall and roof WHITAKER-THOMPSON HOUSE REPORT 4 structures could be expected to have an R-value of approximately 11. This is considered to be less than present day requirements. In addition, floor framing over the cellar and crawl space areas has no insulation. ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES Although environmental issues do not generally affect the structural aspects of buildings, work planned for a building's structure can be impacted by such conditions. There are at least three conditions we detected at this site that must be further evaluated and managed in order to plan any structural rehabilitation. They are: 1. The apparent presence of an underground fuel oil storage tank at the northwest extedor corner of the building. A strong odor of fuel ell is apparent in the cellar soil near the tank location, and the soil appears stained. Foundation work ultimately planned near the tank · ,.'. must consider the tank's condition before proceeding. · ~ ';~. Remnants of likely asbestos-containing insulation noted over the cellar floor. Only laboratory..- testing can confirm the presence of asbestos, but the observed material in our experience · · has proven positive for asbestos content. The debris we observed was considered to be friable and, if shown to contain asbestos, is likely to require appropriate abatement and clean up before any work can proceed in the cellar and crawl space area. 3. Past spot checking using wet chemistry detection swabs for lead containing paint proved to be positive. Although not an unusual finding in older buildings, any planned demolition work should be managed in a manner consistent with reducing the risk of exposure and contamination for personnel and surrounding areas. CONCLUSIONS and RECOMMENDATIONS The present foundation is exhibiting deterioration that is affecting its ability to carry the currently imposed loads. It does not appear to have footings and is not suffidenfly deep in the ground in many areas to lessen the impact of frost damage, it would be unwise to expect that a foundation that is an amalgam of materials in some areas will competently carry the increased loads from a new use. Deteriorating bdck and mortar will not provide good service with increased axial loads. Deterioration-related weaknesses in the matedal compromise its ability to resist laterally induced loads from retention of soil. Installation of a new foundation will result in a safer and more reliable means of transferring building loads into the ground. No part of the first floor structure has the capability to handle a live load of 100 PSF, although approximately one third of it (the eastern end) has the necessary minimum capability of 50 PSF. While some areas owe their weakness to structural members that may be relatively simple to replace or reinforce, other areas would demand considerable rebuilding, Bear in mind that any rebuilding work will necessarily require nearly individualized examination of each existing member and its connections to ensure proper integrity. No part of the second floor structure has the capability to handle a live Icad of 100 PSF. Approximately one third of it (the western end) could, with some moditications, be made to achieve the minimum capability of 50 PSF. One third of the roof structure appears to comply with the needed load carrying capability. The remaining areas have insufficient strength. WHITAKER-THOMPSON HOUSE REPORT 5 Preventive treatment measures and repair must be undertaken to correct wood destroying insect and organism conditions. Environmental dsk aspects at this property must be further evaluated regardless of the final plan for the building. Of the three cited, the underground fuel oil storage tank condition is the most impodant to assess, as its implications are the most costly from the standpoint of present dollars. Depending on the decision regarding the building's future, management of the possible asbestos and lead paint issues can be planned. Lastly, a consideration of specific building use from an architectural standpoint w~uld need to be coordinated with the structural findings not only to ensure placement of areas of loading coincident with framing capable of supporting them, but to ensure that appropriate ceiling heights could be achieved as w~lL Some ceiling heights currently available in the building are likely to conflict with those needed for particular uses. It has been our past experience that the cost for the work discussed here exceeds the cost for achieving similar requirements in new construction, as well as the cost of demolition and removal of the present structure, Alteration of this document, or any part therein, is prohibited without the express written permission of the undersigned.

On behalf of my partners and myself; I would like to submit a bid in the mount of two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000.00) for the purchase of the Whitaker House. In addition to the bid price, we will also assist the Southold Historical Society for relocation and restoration of the carriage house located on the property for a sum not to exceed twenty five thousand dollars ($25,000.00). If the bid is accepted we shall work with the Historical Society to renovate the exterior of the building to as historically correct as possible, based on New York State Building Codes. The interior floor plan will have to be modified for handicap accessibility, as well as an addition may have to be added on the north side of the west wing for an elevator. We shall do all work as historically correct as possible. Should the bid be accepted, upon completion oftbe renovation, the building shall be used for professional office rental space. Although we have some tenants in mind, we would like to extend an offer to the Town of Southold for first fight of refusal for renfmg some of the office space, as well as first fight of refusal if we should ever decide to sell the building. Our bid is subject to Health Department Approval, Town of Southold Site Plan Approval, and Town of Southold Building Dept. Approval. Please contact me at the number or address listed above should you have any questions, require additional information, or would like to discuss this proposal further. Very truly yours, Craig M.

A museum-like use that would allow the interior to be restored and remain intact The many small rooms offer an opportunity and flexibility to create viewing rooms and "separate" use areas. · Of course the stmcttrre should remain in the exact location it is in today and could be restored to the gorgeous condition shown in the second photograph of the RFP (including the wonderful fencing and "landscapingS'). The front yards may be utiliTed as areas for sm~ll scale sculpture displays. · I visited a small two-story Historical Building in Bermuda last April. This structure was used as a learning place/museum to explain Bermuda's role in the American Civil War. Although this was not a "Fun" Center, it was absolutely beautiful and effective. As one walked into this building, you could not help but feel you were back in the past. This "environment" helps visitors focus on the displayed material and to really understand the conditions of Bermuda and it's relationship with the North and the South. · The First Floor may focus on the history of Southold; how about a giant potato displayed in the "Lobby" that several people can sit in and observe a tremendous 5 minute film about the Southold farming industry. The local High Schools have programs that allow students to create video films. A rotating set of films may be installed for viewing. · How about an intense Transportation/Commerce Room to document the "circulation" and industrial history of Southold. An enormous train set, street travel, and flight history models would be interesting to any age visitor. The Second Floor must be ufiliTed and may display local talent in art, photography, sports, music, film/video, sculpture, etc,. Local schools could have rotating displays for children's work. Maybe a huge sit-in clam with ear phones for listening to local music productior~ Second Floor rooms may also be used for small Art and Music classes. * Did I mention a neat Gift Shop that sells only local "manufacturers" handmade merchandise. * A working blacksmith in the restored Barn/Garage.

Salvage all trim, wood, doors, & hardware where possible. Stabilize the structure a. Evaluate structural defects to accommodate the use of the building as a government office. b. Renovate to correct structural defects. 3. Exterior restoration with a period approach (ca. 1890). a. Restore or replace clapboard siding b. Reconstruct porches and trim c. Replace windows d. Install period appropriate gutter system e. Install picket pence on south & west side 4~ Interior restoration where possible and renovation or alteration to meet new use. a. Recondition or replicate interior trim paneling, doors and stairways. b. Recondition or replace floors as needed. c. Redesign of interior spaces to accommodate government offices, i.e. handicapped access. d. New mechanical systems: Electrical, Plumbing, HVAC, Pre-wire telephone & cable. New 22' x 30' two stow addition on the rear of the building for additional office space. This space will include an elevator and toilet for handicap access. The basement of the addition will be built to provide secure and conditioned space for archival storage. 6. Donation of the historic Carriage house (ca. 1810 to 1820) to the Southold Historical Society. PROPOSAL: We propose to offer $1.50,000.00 to purchase the building and land.

It was a last minute decision that I took the liberty of making myself, in the front of Classifieds rather than, a slightly larger ad on the second page. As a result, we will be publishing the same copy this week, August 23 for no charge. We hope you will receive the response you were expecting with your ad.

Southold welcomes all submissions and encourages its own citizens to actively participate in the process. The Town of Southold owns the Whitaker house and property and decided that restoring it is an imperative. The Whitaker house was initially purchased by the town as a potential expansion site for Town Hall. However, the current Town Board has determined that such an expansion would not be the most economically viable solution for the restoration of the property. To that end, the Supervisor and Town Board are interested in the ideas and input of the citizens of Southold and the general public for the reuse of the Whitaker House and property. The Whitaker House property comprises approximately one acre in the Town of Southold. It is located immediately west of Southold Town Hall in the town's Historic District. It stands on the northwest corner of the intersection of Main Road (Route 25) and Horton's Lane. The house, constructed in stages beginning ca. 1790 - 1890, is listed on the State and National Register for Historic Places. The persons eventually responsible for rehabilitating the Whitaker House ~nd property would agree to retain the historic character of the building and to restore the accompanying historic carriage house ca. 1810-20. Some of the suggestions for restoring the property might i~clude the sale of the building into private ownership or the expansion of local government facilities for ~ublic use or removal to another site. The proposed ideas should be compatible with the local HB District zoning regulations and current building codes and regulations. Ail ideas concerning the preservation of the historic structures will be given serious consideration.

ReQuests for Prooosals for Whitaker House LEGAL NOTICE THE TOWN OF SOUTHOLD REQUESTS THE PUBLIC'S INPUT AND PROPOSALS REGARDING THE RESTORATION OF THE HISTORIC WHITAKER HOUSE The Town of Southold invites the public to submit their ideas for the reuse and rehabilitation of the historic Whitaker House. Southold welcomes all submissions and encourages its own citizens to actively participate in the process. The Town of Southold owns the Whitaker house and property and decided that restoring it is an imperative. The Whitaker house was initially purchased by the town as a potential expansion site for Town Hall. However, the current Town Board has determined that such an expansion would not be the most economically viable solution for the restoration of the property. To that end, the Supervisor and Town Board are interested in the ideas and input of the citizens of Southold and the general public for the reuse of the Whitaker House and property. The Whitaker House property comprises approximately one acre in the Town of Southold. It is located immediately west of Southold Town Hall in the town's Historic District. It stands on the northwest comer of the intersection of Main Road (Route 25) and Horton's Lane. The house, constructed in stages beginning ca. 1790 - 1890, is listed on the State and National Register for Historic Places. The persons eventually responsible for rehabilitating the Whitaker House and property would agree to retain the historic character of the building and to restore the accompanying historic carriage house ca. 1810-20. Some of the suggestions for restoring the property might include the sale of the building into private ownership or the expansion of local government facilities for public use or removal to another site. The proposed ideas should be compatible with the local HB District zoning regulations and current building codes and regulations. All ideas concerning the preservation of the historic structures will be given serious consideration. An information package about the building and its condition may be obtained at the Town Clerk's Office (contact by phone at 631-765-1800). Written letters of response including (1) a one page (maximum) cover sheet including the interested party's contact information, and (2) a one page (maximum) summary sheet, with any further details about the proposed idea and its scope included as attachments, are requested by AUGUST 29, 2002 by 10:00 A.M.. Due to the nature of the request, early submissions are encouraged. Please address all correspondence to: Whitaker House Ideas Town Clerk's Office, Town Hall Town of Southold 53095 Main Road Southold, NY 11971. The Town Supervisor will review all submitted ideas. Those ideas of interest to the Town Board may be pursued further by soliciting more detailed proposals, perhaps leading to a formal Request for Proposals. Dated: July 30, 2002 ELIZABETH A.

A museum-like use that would allow the interior to be restored and remain intact The many small rooms offer an opportunity and fleya'bflity to create viewing rooms and "separate" use areas. · Of course the structure should remain in the exact location it is in today and could be restored to the gorgeous condition shown in the second photograph of the RFP ('including the wonderful fencing and "landscaping"). The front yards may be u~lized as areas for small scale sculpture displays. · I visited a small two-story Historical Building in Bermuda last April. This structure was used as a leaxning place/museum to explain Bermuda's role in the American Civil War. Although this was not a "Fun" Center, it was absolutely beautiful and effective. As one walked into this building, you could not help but feel you were beck in the past. This "environment" helps visitors focus on the displayed material and to really understand the conditions of Bermuda and ifs relationship with the North and the South. · The First Floor may focus on the history of Southold; how about a giant potato displayed in the "Lobby" that several people can sit in and observe a tremendous 5 minute film about the Sou~hold farming industry. The local High Schools have programs that allow students to create video films. A rotating set of films may be installed for viewing. · How about an intense Transportation/Commerce Room to document the "circulation" and industrial history of Southold. An enormous train set, street travel, and flight history models would be interesting to any age visitor. · The Second Floor must be utilized and may display local talent in art, photography, sports, music, film/video, sculpture, etc,. Local schools could have rotating displays for children's work. Maybe a huge sit-in clam with ear phones for listening to local music production. Second Floor rooms may also be used for small Art and Music classes. · Did I mention a neat Gift Shop that sells only local "manufacturers" handmade merchandise. · A working blacksmith in the restored Barn/Garage.

This custom designed office space will be leased back to the town of Southold at fair market rates, along with a future buy back option. The process we will use in restoring the Whitaker House is the same one used in our recent restoration/renovation of the "Joseph Horton House" located on Main Rd. in the historic district of Southold. PROCESS: The project will consist of the following. Demolition with sensitivity to preservation. a. Peel off the layers exterior and interior. b. Salvage all trim, wood, doors, & hardware where possible. Stabilize the structure a. Evaluate structural defects to accommodate the use of the building as a government office, b. Renovate to correct structural defects. 3. Exterior restoration with a period approach (ca. 1890). a. Restore or replace clapboard siding b. Reconstruct porches and trim c. Replace windows d.
