Applicant's Description
of Work:
Our condo building has very old aluminum storm windows, most of which do not function and are in
generally poor condition making them very drafty and not energy efficient at all. We would like to
replace 10 of the existing storm windows in the front of the house (visible from Federal St.) with new
Point 1 aluminum storm windows coated in white to match the white exterior of our existing sashes
on the original windows that we plan on restoring soon. We’re being mindful of the Commission’s
guidelines and have made our selection so that the end result will be far more functional and
aesthetically pleasing than the existing storm windows. Further, this will enable us to restore our
original windows as restoring them without changing our existing storm windows is not possible
based on how faulty and drafty they are. The main agenda of this application is going from the silver
aluminum color to white storm windows to match our white sashes.
