Applicant's Description
of Work:
Rain Gutters and Chimney Repair
This work is to mitigate drainage issues at 159 Derby Street we plan to complete in
2021. We need to install rain gutters on the side of our building facing the Salem
Maritime National Historic Site. There are currently no gutters on this side. As part of the
drainage problem, which also includes masonry work in the basement, we want to add
gutters on the park side of our building. The Kosciusko side of the building already has
rain gutters and we want to match those existing gutters. I’ve included some photos
below of the existing gutters as well as an illustration of the new gutter placement. As
you can see in these photos the soffit has been extended to fit the existing gutters. We
expect to do the same on the new gutters. While we have access to the roofline for this work we also plan to make some masonry
repairs to the existing chimneys. These chimneys are not in use. This work would
improve the structural stability of the brickwork with no brick replacement, and to cap the
chimneys within the opening so the visual look of the chimneys will not be impacted. The contractor for this work will be Dandreo Brothers General Contractors & Masonry. Robert P. Dandreo RPDandreo@dandreo.com Phone: 781-581-7719 92 Oakville Street Lynn MA 01905
