Small Project Review: Modification to Approved Plans – Exterior Restoration of Historic Home
Meeting Date: April 28, 2021
Members Present: Paul Durand, Glenn Kennedy, Catherine Miller, Marc Perras, Helen Sides
Members Absent: David Jaquith, J. Michael Sullivan
Decision: At a regular meeting of the Design Review Board (DRB), upon a motion duly made and
seconded, it was unanimously voted to recommend approval of the proposed modifications to the
approved plans for the exterior restoration of the Grimshawe House at 53 Charter Street as designed
and conditioned herein.
Referenced Plans and Documents

MA 02129, dated 4/1/21, showing existing and proposed elevations and detail sheets.
2. Site Plan for 53 Charter Street, prepared by Pomeroy & Co., 18 Spice Street, Charlestown, MA
02129, dated 4/1/21.
3. A series of photographs showing the structure’s existing exterior façade, submitted on 4/2/21
by Pomeroy & Co., 18 Spice Street, Charlestown, MA 02129.
4. A series of historical photographs of the structure, submitted on 4/2/21 by Pomeroy & Co., 18
Spice Street, Charlestown, MA 02129.
5. Window specification sheet for Marvin Ultimate Wood Double Hung Collection, submitted on
4/2/21 by Pomeroy & Co., 18 Spice Street, Charlestown, MA 02129.
6. Massachusetts Inventory Form B, 53 Charter Street, form number SAL.2507, June 2017.
7. Staff Comments dated 4/22/21.
Conditions of Approval: The DRB recommends incorporating the following conditions:
1. Consistency with Approved Design/Plans: Should the applicant determine that the restoration
project may not be completed as presented and conditioned herein, he/she/they shall return to
the DRB to review proposed modifications prior to making any changes in the field.
2. Façade Color References: Prior to commencing exterior construction in accordance with
approved plans, the applicant shall submit paint color references for the exterior façade.
3. Color of Downspouts: The downspouts shall be painted a weathered copper/bronze/brown
color.
4. Future Expansion of the Project: The applicant shall return to the SRA and the DRB for review
and approval of any proposed exterior expansions and additions to the structure, including
decks and porches.
Findings
1. Consistency with Design Standards and Guidelines: This restoration project is consistent with the
Salem Historical Commission’s Guidelines Notebook and the Secretary of Interior’s Standards for
the Treatment of Historic Properties in that the existing materials are being repaired and/or
replaced in-kind, the windows will be wood, and there is no significant change to the exterior
form and footprint of the structure.
2. Improvement of Neighborhood Character: This structure is prominently located adjacent to the
City’s historic Charter Street Cemetery. This project will restore the exterior façade of the
building, which will greatly improve the visual character of this historic area of the downtown.
Signature of the DRB: By the signature below, I certify that this recommendation accurately reflects the
actions of the Design Review Board.
