Remove existing fence, posts and iron poles
Install new white cedar fence along entire property line
- Same exact product & installer as seen at 10 Monroe Street (street view pic provided)
- Colonial tongue & groove 5" wide planks, top trim & cap, bottom fascia, 5"wide capped cedar posts
- All nailed by hand, installer (Boston Fence)does not use nail guns
-6'h along Summer St and southside to side gate location at 55 Summer St, then taper down to 5'h for remainder of enclosure.
Along Summer St, install 3' wide inswing pedestrian door and 10' wide rolling gate to more closely align to what was originally there (see
historic photo). Rolling gate is seen at 29 Chestnut St, along Warren St (see provided picture). We would not have a digital keypad and rolling
hardware will not be visible from the street. Rolling gate desired so we don't have to make half our property a driveway in order to pull a car
in. Interested in Commission's thoughts on using wider 8" posts for Summer St facade. Hand forged iron bean mortise lockset hardware for
pedestrian door and matching bean pull for rolling gate.
Along High Street, maintain existing layout and 6' height, but change style to colonial tongue & groove. Current door swings outward, change
it to swing inward. Hardware to be simple, lockable black thumb latch. High Street is not in the historic district, although can be seen from
Summer St
Color:
Summer Street & High Street = C2 Black Bean to match trim on home. Street-facing fences historically are painted, not stained
Remainder of surrounding fence = Semi-transparent cedar stain
