S.A. - Page 189 of 302 Addendum Historical Resource Inventory and Evaluation Report & Historical Impacts Analysis historic registries that have a high degree of significance and integrity, but have a poor historic context and are not clustered with other historic resources.15 6.2.1.1 Historic Impacts Assessment The 2010 Brandi report noted that the setting and feeling of this area of EI Camino Real in Redwood City changed over time, and no longer retains the feeling of a 1930s commercial business district; however, the building itself retained integrity of location, design, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association as a 1930s Art Deco/Art Moderne—style building. 16 This report confirms Brandi's 2015 findings that the immediate vicinity of 1322 EI Camino Real lacks concentration or continuity of historic buildings for any potential historic district. The current construction of the EI Camino Real and Wilson Project across EI Camino Real from The Record Man further altered the setting of the immediate area (Photograph 6). The surface parking lot, as seen in Photograph 5, will physically separate Parcel F from the Record Man building. The surface lot provides an approximately 50 -foot buffer between the two buildings. Parcel F development would not result in the physical demolition, destruction, relocation, or alteration of the Record Man Building. Nor, would the construction of the Parcel F building result in the alteration of the immediate surroundings of the Record Man building to such an extent that the historical resource would be materially impaired. The building will still convey its architectural significance and association with early 20th century commercial development in Redwood City through its character -defining features including the ribbed bending at the parapet and square window bays, the stylized shield element at the side elevation, and smooth stucco wall surfaces that convey the 1930s Art Deco/Art Moderne style of the building. Therefore, the project will not affect the integrity of 1322 EI Camino Real related to setting, feeling, and association. The construction of the six -story, 66—foot-high building on the Parcel F site at 1304 EI Camino Real will not result in the physical demolition, destruction, relocation, or alteration of the 1322 EI Camino Real building, or its immediate surroundings to such an extent that the significance of a historical resource would be materiallv impaired.
