Salem Redevelopment Authority Decision
September 14, 2016
125 Washington Street: Small project review: Continued discussion and vote on
proposed modifications to main entry to allow wheelchair access
SRA Decision
At its meeting on September 14, 2016 the SRA voted unanimously (4-0) to
approve the proposed modifications to main entry at 125 Washington
Street as recommended by the Design Review Board.
Recommendation
At its meeting on August 24, 2016 the Design Review Board voted unanimously (7-0) to
recommend approval of the proposed modifications to the main entry at 125
Washington Street as shown in plans dated 7/7/2016
Proposal
The applicant seeks to accommodate ADA accessibility by modifying the existing
concrete sidewalk at the front entrance. The applicant revised a proposal first
presented to the DRB at its meeting on July 27, 2016. The revised proposal shows a
step with an opening of 5'5", and an entrance of over 6' accessible via an ADA
compliant ramp made of concrete paving. The border of the paving that would act also
as a step would be new step flame finished granite.
A revised configuration of a proposed black iron railing is shown, but added this time are
three removable black bollards made of ductile iron.

Re: 125 Washington Street, Salem
Dear Tom:
What follows is a brief description of the work which is planned
for the exterior of 125 Washington Street. The contractor, Tom Jacobs
Construction of Marblehead is currently erecting staging on the building
in preparation for the repair work. It is important to note that the
building management was notified that concrete was falling from the
building onto the sidewalk causing a potential for serious personal
injury. A letter from the Salem Public Property Department was
received on February 5, 2008. After meetings and discussions with the
Salem Building Department, the contractor is preparing the building for
necessary repair work. We have attached photographs which will
hopefully illustrate the existing conditions at the building.
Existing Conditions
There is an existing ornamental concrete railing which is set
upon the building's parapet. The base of the railing is directly on lead
coated copper which itself is in excellent condition. The building also
has a concrete cornice detail which requires some minor re-pointing
work. The lower section of the balustrades are badly spalling and
require re-pointing. The balusters themselves are mostly in good
condition but about 10% of them will need to be duplicated. The upper
blocks are badly spalling with some of them shifting and some of them
may need pinning and some will have to be duplicated.
Materials to be Used
The re-pointing mortar is a material called Comproco and the
masonry cement is Type S. The material is pigmented so that the color
can be matched on the job to the existing color. The same products will
be used for casting the replacement sections. Any pins and fasteners
necessary for the job will be stainless steel. Every effort will be made to
insure that the repaired and duplicated masonry will look the same as the
original structure.
If you have any additional questions please do not hesitate to call
US.
ncerely,

Salem Redevelopment Authority Decision
August 9, 2017
125 Washington Street (Ledger): Discussion and vote on proposed enclosure for
dumpsters.
SRA Decision
At its meeting on August 9, 2017 the Salem Redevelopment Authority voted
to approve the proposed dumpster enclosure at 125 Washington Street
conditional upon it being constructed of a dark stained cedar.
Recommendation
At its meeting on July 26, 2017 the Design Review Board voted to recommend approval
of the proposed enclosure for dumpsters at 125 Washington Street (Ledger) on the
condition that the material of the enclosure is cedar and that it has a dark stain applied
to it.
Staff Comments (August 9, 2017 SRA Meeting):
Per the recommendation of the DRB, the applicant has agreed to install a dark stained
cedar enclosure; not black vinyl privacy slats as originally proposed to the DRB.
Proposal (July 26, 2017 DRB Meeting)
The May DRB recommendation and June SRA decision of this year for Ledger
Restaurant called for the applicant to return to the Boards for review of screening for the
dumpster area (they had a 90 day grace period). The applicant is now back proposing
to install a six foot high fence that is either black chain link with black privacy slats or
stained cedar. The fence would have a double swinging gate to open for trash
collection. It would be installed along the perimeter of what remains of a demolished
planter (two small walls of the planter remain, which are currently acting as a makeshift
enclosure). The applicant prefers the notion of the chain link fence with vinyl privacy
slats for durability, but understands if there is a desire for a more aesthetically pleasing
appearance, as offered by the cedar fence.
Staff Comments (July 26, 2017 DRB Meeting):
This proposal was shown to the Health Agent. He endorsed the plan's approval.

Design Review Board
Dear Design Review Board:
We appreciate your flexibility in working with us to determine the most practical solution for our
planned trash enclosure. As we have mentioned, we are happy to help set precedents in town with
respect to business operations and hope that others will follow.
Since our last meeting, we have met with a number of professional contractors to determine our most
viable options while taking into account several factors including logistics, durability, aesthetics, and
cost.
From a design standpoint, we were able to retain the majority of the concrete and brick planter to act as
a protective barrier for the two dumpsters that will live inside the enclosure. This will help with the long
term condition of the enclosed area as it will eliminate any direct damage from the dumpsters
themselves.
After consulting our waste management provider(IRM), we decided that a double gate swinging door is
the most effective from a logistics standpoint. The enclosure itself will be the same size and dimensions
as the original planter,so we will require no additional space.
It is clear tha the most/Practical, d y�able and co effective so tion continu to be steel a d chain li
with priva slats. We understand there is hesi ation on the esthetics of is option, bu a wante to
re-submi what black steel with Black privacy fats would I k like, esped Ily considers the flat b ck
paint have pufon the exhai(st(picture o that is also bmittec
As a second option, we have included a solid, hearty,cedar wood fence solution with 100% privacy. We
would recommend not painting the wood, but treating and leaving the natural color of the cedar. For
both options,the height of the enclosure would be 6 feet high. We have provided examples of what
each material would look like.
Lastly, we have some concerns about the health of the sidewalk, curb and handicap accessibility of the
city-owned area behind the building. We would like to propose this area is looked at closely and put in
consideration for some updates. If and when that takes place,there we believe there are some
7� '[M W'b �t Gust e�clrnnh� I dares Sic .1n�L G�cl� r u,5ilt
( J� JSe
mutually beneficial ways to redesign the area for the city, our abutters and us.
Thank you again. We're excited to be open and look forward to what lies ahead.
Sincerely,
Matt O'Neil & Brett Danahy

Salem Redevelopment Authority Decision
May 10, 2017
125 Washington Street (Ledger): Discussion and vote on proposed cafe permit/
outdoor seating area, installation of signage, and installation of trash enclosure and
ventilation ducts.
SRA Decision
At its meeting on May 10, 2017 the SRA voted unanimously (5-0) to approve
the proposed cafe permit / outdoor seating area, installation of signage,
and installation of trash enclosure and ventilation ducts as recommended
by the Design Review Board.
Recommendation
At its regular meeting on April 26, 2017 the Design Review Board voted unanimously (4-
0) to recommend approval of the proposed cafe permit/ outdoor seating area, and
installation of signage.
The DRB recommends approval of the installation of ventilation ducts conditional upon
painting them matte black.
The DRB recommends approval of the demolition of the planter to accommodate room
for dumpsters, with a condition that the applicant come before them within 90 days to
present a revised scheme for trash/recycling and screening, as well as for screening of
mechanical equipment.
Staff Comment
Prior to the DRB meeting, concerns were expressed by abutters and the Ward
Councilor about properly locating and screening the dumpsters and HVAC equipment.
The applicant has engaged all of those parties and has shown a willingness to work with
them on an acceptable solution. They have agreed to paint the ducts matte black as
recommended by the DRB and will return to the DRB and SRA with a revised scheme
for screening both the dumpster and HVAC elements.
The enclosed materials contain a plan showing the location of the dumpster enclosure,
but this may be revised slightly when the applicant returns for further review.
The enclosed sheet showing furniture for the outdoor seating area is subject to some
change, but the DRB expressed no objections. The umbrellas will not have
advertisements on them.
. 's Salem
® Redevelopment
Authority
Proposal for April 26, 2017 DRB Meeting
The applicant returns with revised information regarding signage and the dumpster
enclosure, and more detailed drawings for the outdoor seating area.
Currently no sign is proposed for the building, other than the three panels for the clock.
They have been revised to show a dark, reclaimed wood-like background, with white
font. The restaurant's logo will appear on the panel facing Washington Street, and the
two side panels will have additional typeface.
The panels are 33.75" wide by 44.25" tall. The fonts vary in height but all show in white.
The seating area will accommodate 28 patrons. Adequate clearance along the sidewalk
is shown in the plan.
The dumpster enclosure will be 84" wide with doors that will swing open on one end of
it to allow for dumpsters to roll out and be picked up by a trash contractor at the end of
Higginson Square. The enclosure will be 15'10.75" long and cover an area that is
currently occupied by a planter that is on the applicant's property. It will be chain link
with gray privacy slats.
Two ducts as shown in the enclosed materials have been installed on the rear of the
building.
Staff Comments for April 26, 2017 DRB Meeting
The Building and Health Departments have reviewed the outdoor seating area and
dumpster enclosure plans. No objections were raised.
The applicant should not have installed the ducts prior to full approval from the
DRB/SRA, however it's been done. I would encourage the DRB to examine the current
condition and suggest (if it deems it necessary) any masking of the ducts with paint
and/or screening.
All proposed signage is compliant with the City's sign ordinance and Commercial
Design Guidelines.
Proposal from March 22, 2017 DRB Meeting
The applicant, Ledger, is a new restaurant that is moving into the former Eastern Bank
space on Washington Street. They are asking to implement a few key improvements to
the front and rear exteriors of the location:
aSalem
® Redevelopment
Authority
1. An outdoor seating area that would consist of 26 bistro chairs, 13 wood dining
tables, 6 ivory colored umbrellas, 13 table lanterns, and zinc planters for the
perimeter. Photos of furniture are enclosed.
2. Two signs for the Washington Street fagade, to include:
a. A 3' wide x 1.5' high metal plaque to be affixed to the brick to the right of
the entry doors; and
b. Three translucent plastic panels that will replace the existing panels
advertising Eastern Bank on the clock. This signs will be lit from the
interior of the clock, and as a pre-existing non-conforming sign (we
ordinarily do not allow interior lit signage in the downtown), this method of
lighting can be permitted as a grandfathered right.
3. At the exterior facade of the property the applicant proposes to remove the
existing concrete planter, and in its place, provide screening for dumpsters. Two
exhaust ducts, shown as being painted brick red, will run up the wall, to the roof.
Additional cameras will be installed and a non-functioning light post will be
removed to facilitate easier trash pick-up.
Staff Comments from March 22, 2017 DRB Meeting
There is a fair amount of information that needs to be filled in for all aspects of this
proposal. I have inquiries into the applicant about the following:
• Dimensions of tables
• Umbrella material
• Location of planters (not shown on plans)
• Dimensions of clock signage
• Specifications for cameras
• Details regarding material, color, and appearance of garbage screening
The proposed signage is both compliant with the City's Sign Ordinance and in line with
the Commercial Design Guidelines. Although the exact dimensions of the signage to be
placed on the clock is not yet known, given the amount of frontage the applicant has,
there is no indication that they will go over their signage allowance. As noted in the
materials, the exact look/font of the signage is being refined and I expect that this will be
finalized by our meeting.

OUR STORY
Ledger restaurant, located on Washington Street in downtown
Salem, is on schedule for an early Summer 2017 opening. The
renovation of the former Salem Savings Bank building )circa
1818) is underway and the original 19th century beauty of the
space will be displayed. This historically unique location will
house the new concept from Matt O'Neil chef/owner of The
Blue Ox Restaurant in Lynn, MA. O'Neil and his wife, Joan-
na, have operated The Blue Ox in Lynn since 2009. The new
restaurant will showcase a large U-Shaped bar layout with
rich banquette seating, a large chef's table, and diverse bar
and dining room seating options. The kitchen will showcase a
custom 8' wood-fire grill and feature both a raw bar and char-
_ cuterie bar with counter dining overlooking the open kitchen
space. The principle feature of the kitchen may be the bank
vault which will house the restaurant's refrigerator and act as a
showcase to the dining room. O'Neil's menu will be a contin-
uation of his Blue Ox reputation, focusing on well sourced and
local ingredients. The majority of menu offerings will highlight
traditional New England cuisine brought to life with a 21 st cen-
tury twist. Carved meats, whole grilled fish, shared appetizers,
and family style "suppers" are being considered for the menu.
The decor will be an ode to the buildings original beauty with
classically rich furnishings and original details, such as the
original stropwork ceiling, large windows, exposed brick, safety
deposit box features, and the namesake bank ledgers. In com-
plete contrast to the vintage feel and age of the building, the
open kitchen will be a vibrant, shiny hub of energy and feature
a custom 8' wood fire grill, the focal point of the hot line. Led-
ger will open with dinner service seven nights a week, brunch
and lunch service will be expanded after opening. Private
dining options are available in the adjacent Macomber Room
for all three services.
