OCTOBER 19, 1976
PETITION OF BARTON SQUARE REALTY TRUST TO CONVERT THE THIRD AND FOURTH
FLOORS OF THE BUILDING LOCATED AT 136-146 WASHINGTON STREET_ AND 1 BARTON
_,__SQUARE INTO 12 RESIDENTIAL UNITS, (B-3.DISTRICT)
Hearing on this petition was held on October 19, 1976 with Chairman John M.
Gray, Sr. , and members Jane T. Lundregan, William Abbott, Arthur LaBrecque,
and Donald Eames present. Notices were duly mailed to abutters and others
in accordance with Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 808.
Attorney George Vallis represented the petitioner before the Board. The
petitioner wishes to convert the third and fourth floors of the present four
story building into twelve dwelling units containing six l bedroom and
six 2 bedroom apartments, and to install an elevator to servile the 3rd and
4th floors, and also to tear down the present 3 storied dwelling structure
/ located at 1 Barton Square to provide for off-street parking for approximately
18 cars. The petitioner is appearing before the Board because a multi-family
dwelling is not included as a permitted use in the B-3 District, and there-
fore needs a variance in order to proceed with the above plans. The petitioner
stated it was impractical and virtuously impossible to rent the upper two
stories of the built facility for office use for which it is presently zoned.
He also pointed out that the building is located across the street from the
B-5 District in which multi-family dwelling units are a permitted use.
The Board voted unanimously to grant the petition requested. The Board found
that the inability of the petitioner to rent the upper floors for office
purposes caused a hardship on the petitioner. The Board also found that
the petition could be granted because it would be in harmony with the surround-
ing neighborhood, and would in fact be an asset to the surrounding neighborhood.
GRANTED.
APPEALS FROM THIS DECISION, IF ANY, SHALL BE MADE PURSUANT TO SECTION 17 OF
THE MASSACHUSETTS GENERAL LAWS, CHAPTER 808, AND SHALL BE FILED WITHIN TWENTY
DAYS AFTER THE DATE OF FILING OF THIS DECISION IN THE OFFICE OF THE CITY CLERK.
VARIANCE GRANTED HEREIN SHALL NOT TAKE EFFECT UNTIL A COPY OF THE DECISION BEARING
THE CERTIFICATION OF THE CITY CLERK THAT TWENTY DAYS HAVE ELAPSED AND NO APPEAL
HAS BEEN FILED, OR THAT IF SUCH AN APPEAL HAS BEEN FILED IT HAS BEEN DISMISSED
OR DENIED AS RECORDED IN THE SOUTH ESSEX REGISTRY OF DEEDS AND INDEXED IN THE
GRANTOR INDEX UNDER THE NAME OF THE OWNER OF RECORD, OR RECORDED AND NOTED IN
THE OWNER'S CERTIFICATE OF TITLE.

Dear Mr . Ingemi :
Please be advised , that the emergency systems noted have not been
maintained as required by this office and the National Fire Protection
Association . A copy of the minimum requirements are enclosed .
The services of this office have been overly extended in order to
allow additional time in which management had more than enough time to
perform the required maintenance .
The last record we have for a complete fire alarm test dates back to
November 3 , 1983 . Needless to say , corrective steps must be taken imme-
diately .
Please be advised that the entire system will be completed by a qual -
fied persons before the system is tied in with the City .
Corrective measures shall be made within seven ( 7 ) days of this letter .
Yours truly ,
'Paul M . Tuttle

Structural i'valuation of Fire Damage
Gentlemen:
On February 22 , 1982 I reviewed the structural integrity
of the above building in light of the substantial fire damage
sustained over the weekend.
The building was constructed in two stages , left side (as
viewed from the street) and right side. Damage is described as
follows :
Roof; Left side roof deck totally destroyed or badly
damaged. Beams badly charred. Right side roof deck charred
beyond repair. Reams questionable .
4th. Floor; Left side floor deck badly- charred.Replacement
seems likely. Beams charred 2". Review of bea4 dequacy is
required. Righide deck somewhat charred. Reinforcement or
replacement of some portion is likely. Beams somewhat charred,
structural review required
3rd. Floor; Damage to deck appears to be limited to ceiling
coverings below and wood flooring with the exception of several
areas of what appears to be old floor openings which were
framed over. In those areas dec': must be replaced.
Columns ; All columns 3rd to 4th and 4th to roof are badly
charred and must be replaced.
Masonry; 4ith the exception of some spalling which occured ;
during the firefighting operation ( water on hot bricks ) and a
small section of parapet removed, I believe, by firemen to
gain access to the fire , all masonry appears undamaged by the
fire. Smoke damage will require cleaning and some patching and
pointing will be required around Iiindow-1.
I
Recommendations ;
1 . The remaining roof structure must be si-:cred to prevent
i
collapse under snow loading. Such a collapse, were it to occur,
could damage the masonry walls .
2. The 4th and 3rd floor systems must be repaired or
I
replaced as required. ';Jork must be sequenced so as to provide
masonry wall support.
3. Masonry wall integrity appears to be acceptable . All
mortar joints must be checked to verify their condition and
repointed as necessary.
Conclusions ;
.then properly shored the roof should be in no danger of
collapse. As the masonry walls are basically as sound as before
the lire I see no reason to consider a total or partial
demolition of the building.
Should you have any further questions please do not
hesitate to contact me .
Very ruly yours
