Not Addressed LTS LTS with Mitigation No No No No Documentation: 1900 Broadway Component: a. The DTPP (Appendix 1) identifies 47 historic resources and one designated historic district within the DTPP area. The DTPP program EIR (Chapter 7, Cultural and Historic Resources) concluded that there were potential impacts to these resources only for project sites located on or directly adjacent to a historic resource, or within or directly adjacent to a historic district. The EIR concluded this impact to be significant and unavoidable with mitigation. The SEIR concurred that even with Mitigation Measure 7-3 (requiring development within or adjacent to historic districts to be evaluated by a historian), and Mitigation Measures CR-1 (formerly Mitigation Measure 7-2 with clarifying amendments), CR-2 (formerly Mitigation Measure 7-4 with clarifying amendments), and NO-3 (formerly Mitigation Measure 11-3 with clarifying amendments), implementation of the DTPP Plan-Wide Amendments could pose significant and unavoidable impacts on historic resources. The existing building and site is not a DTPP-identified historic resource and is not a contributor to the locally designated Main Street Historic District (DTPP p. 30, Historic Resource Preservation Regulations Map; DTPP p. 156, Historic Resources Reconnaissance Survey Map.) However, because the project component site is adjacent to a historic district, the following summarizes the review of the proposed project component’s impacts on the adjacent historic district as required by the DTPP program EIR (Mitigation Measure 7-3).9 Historic Resources Report A historic resources report was prepared for the project component site by Brandi Preservation Historic Preservation Consulting, in October 2023, (Review of the Impact of the 1900 Broadway Project on Historic Resources in Downtown Redwood City; October 9, 2023, and revised October 30, 2023, the “Brandi Report”). The Brandi Report was prepared by Richard Brandi who meets the requirements of a Qualified Professional as set forth by the Secretary of the Interior. The Brandi Report evaluated the proposed project component to determine if the 1900 Broadway project would have potential impacts on four existing City-designated historic structures (726 Main Street aka the Diller-Chamberlain Store; 800 Main Street aka the Sequoia Hotel; 2000 Broadway aka the Bank of San Mateo County; and 2020 Broadway aka the Fitzpatrick Building) or on the adjacent City-designated Main Street Historic District. The analysis was based on review of project plans and the Downtown Precise Plan and photos (included in the report). A site visit was conducted on September 29, 2023. The project component site does not currently contain a City-designated historic 9 Potential construction period groundborne vibration effects are discussed below in item XIII(b), Noise, for 1900 Broadway; also see the project geotechnical report (“Geotechnical Investigation, Proposed Office Building, 1900 Broadway, Redwood City, California”; Rockridge Geotechnical; February 23, 2024; pp. 13-15) for discussion of foundation support and related shoring recommendations that might produce construction period vibration.
