36. COMMUNICATION/DEMOLITION, Anne Louro, Preservation Planner, to City Council, re: BUILDING DEMOLITION REVIEW: 278 UNION STREET (MAP  46 LOT 18) a circa 1925, one story brick masonry commercial building, advising that “the structure is listed as a contributing resource (NBE.18) within the Central New Bedford National Register Historic District (NBE.AC); the structure has been substantially altered and no longer retains architectural significance based on the existing condition of the structure; the structure’s demolition is necessary to accommodate the new construction of a five-story mixed use building; the Historical Commission, by and through a Memorandum of Agreement between the Massachusetts Historical Commission and the property owner, Alinea Capital Partners LLC, have collaborated in the new building design as a means to mitigate the adverse effects of demolition” “in light of these findings, the Preservation Planner has determined that the commercial structure at 278 Union Street is neither a Historically Significant nor a Preferably Preserved Structure.”
