PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Introduction
W2005 BWH II Realty, L.L.C. (the Proponent) proposes to rehabilitate and redevelop four lots, three of which are improved with a single existing building each: 327-333 Summer Street (327 Summer Street); 337-347 Summer Street (337 Summer Street); 319 A Street; and the approximately 1,811 square-foot undeveloped parcel that abuts 337 Summer Street to the east (Parcel C), as follows (collectively, the Project). The Project will involve redevelopment of the 327 Summer Street and 337 Summer Street buildings, which together have an existing gross floor area (GFA) of approximately 105,600 square feet (s.f.), into a single building, referred to as 327337 Summer Street. The Project will make two additions to 327-337 Summer Street: a two-story, approximately 15,300 square-foot, rooftop addition (Rooftop Addition); and an horizontal addition on the east side of the 337 Summer Street of approximately 18,900 s.f. (East Addition), to be built on Parcel C. The East Addition is proposed with a glass faade offering views to the original building, or, alternatively, as a brick structure designed in the character of the existing buildings faades. The Proponent is evaluating both a single-tenant office alternative and a primarily residential alternative for 327-337 Summer Street. All four alternatives residential use with a glass faade addition, residential use with a masonry faade addition, office use with a glass faade addition, and office use with a masonry faade addition are evaluated in this Expanded Project Notification Form (PNF). The Project will also involve the conversion of 319 A Street from its current use as office space into residential units, with first-floor retail, service, entertainmentrestaurant-recreational space. The GFA, currently approximately 47,000 s.f., will be increased to 47,700 s.f. with the addition of a lobby and stairwell on the ground floor. There are no alternative redevelopment scenarios for 319 A Street. This PNF initiates Large Project Review under Article 80 of the Boston Zoning Code. In addition to describing the Project, it analyzes the Projects potential impacts and proposes mitigation measures, as summarized below. Project-related new traffic will be minimal. Under the Residential Alternative, no changes in level of service would occur. Under the Office Alternative, only two changes in level of service would occur during the morning peak hour, and only two changes in level of service would occur during the evening peak hour (Subsection 2.3.2.7). The Project will increase parking demand by just 58 spaces under the Residential Alternative or 107 spaces under the Office Alternative. The area has approximately 8,350 existing parking spaces, including the 585-space Necco Street Garage, which
1-1
is across A Street from the Project site, owned by an affiliate of the Proponent, and currently operates below capacity (Subsection 2.3.2.11). The Project would add only 17 transit trips during the morning peak hour and 26 transit trips during the evening peak hour under the Residential Alternatives, and only 46 transit trips during the morning peak hour and 50 transit trips during the evening peak hour under the Office Alternative, so it will not adversely affect transit capacity (Subsection 2.3.2.8). New pedestrian and bicycle accommodations will improve access to the Project site (Subsections 2.3.2.9 and 2.3.2.10). The Transportation Demand Management (TDM) program will encourage nonvehicular travel to the Project site, emphasizing the sites proximity to public transportation services (Subsection 2.4). The Project will have little or no effect on pedestrian level winds, will generate minimal new shadow, will not significantly affect daylight reaching the Project area, and will not create significant adverse impacts from reflected solar glare (Subsections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4). Potential air quality and noise impacts will be below City and State thresholds (Subsections 3.5 and 3.10). Minimal geotechnical impacts are anticipated, and they will be monitored as required. The Projects stormwater will be managed in accordance with applicable regulations, and the Project will comply with Article 32 of the Boston Zoning Code (Subsection 3.8). The Project will help to enliven the Fort Point Channel neighborhood by providing accessible retail, service, entertainment-restaurant-recreational space, new residential use, and possibly additional office space, through the renovation and adaptive reuse of three 100-year-old warehouse buildings (Section 4.0). The Project involves renovation and adaptive reuse of three buildings located within the Fort Point Channel Historic District, which is listed on the State and National Registers of Historic Places (Section 5.0). Public benefits accruing from the Project include historic preservation, neighborhood creation, improved access and circulation, increased property taxes, and creation of temporary and permanent jobs (Subsection 1.4).

Project Description
1.3.1 Project Site
The Project affects four existing parcels of land in South Bostons Fort Point Channel district, all owned by the Proponent and located along Pastene Alley, a private way not open to public travel: 327 Summer Street, 337 Summer Street; 319 A Street; and Parcel C (as all are defined in Subsection 1.1 above). The total Project site has a combined area of approximately 41,470 s.f. (0.95 acres). Under the Project, the four existing parcels will be combined into two parcels, as follows. 1.3.1.1 327-337 Summer Street
327 and 337 Summer Street are each currently improved with brick buildings of seven above-ground stories. The first story 1 of 327 Summer Street is accessible from Pastene Alley, and the first story of 337 Summer Street is accessible from both Pastene Alley and West Service Road, part of the highway system under the jurisdiction of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT). Pastene Alley and West Service Road are both at a lower elevation than Summer Street. The third stories of both buildings are accessible from Summer Street. Parcel C, which abuts 337 Summer Street to the east, will be merged with 327-337 Summer Street, such that the 327-337 Summer Street parcel will be bordered by Summer Street to the north, West Service Road to the east, 315 A Street (which includes a portion of Pastene Alley) to the south, and 321 Summer Street on the west, and have a total area of approximately 18,637 s.f. (0.43 acres). The existing 327 and 337 Summer Street buildings have a combined total GFA of approximately 105,600 s.f., while Parcel C is currently undeveloped. 1.3.1.2 319 A Street
319 A Street is improved with a brick building of five above-ground stories, and includes the adjacent portion of Pastene Alley, for a total area of approximately 22,833 s.f. (0.52 acres). 319 A Street is bordered by 311 Summer Street and 321 Summer Street to the north,
The first story is the lowest story of which sixty-five percent (65%) or more of the height is above grade. (Boston Zoning Code, art. 2A.)
1-4
315 A Street to the east, a large surface parking lot owned by the United States Postal Service (USPS) to the south, and A Street to the west. The Project would not reconfigure the existing parcel. The existing building has a GFA of approximately 47,000 s.f. Figure 1-1 Aerial Locus Map depicts the Project site and surrounding structures. Figure 1-2 is the Existing Conditions Site Plan for 327-337 Summer Street and 319 A Street. Figures 13 through 1-8 are photographs of the site. The site survey and legal description of the site are provided in Appendix A.
1.3.2
Development Context
The Project is located in the heart of a vibrant mixed-use and creative neighborhood in the Fort Point Channel district of South Boston. Located two blocks to the east of 327-337 Summer Street is the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center. Just five blocks from South Station, the Project site is convenient to the MBTA subways, Silver Line, and Commuter Rail and the I-90 and I-93 connections to downtown Boston, Greater Boston, and Logan Airport. The Project site lies within the City of Bostons Planned Development Area No. 69, The 100 Acres Master Plan (PDA Master Plan).
1.3.3
The existing three buildings at the Project site are considered representations of warehouse and commercial loft structures during the period of their development, and, therefore, historically significant. The Boston Wharf Company (BWC) developed each of the properties, with the architect Morton D. Safford using a simplified classical revival style derived from his earlier work at 254, 256 and 300 Summer Street in the late 19th century. 1.3.3.1 327-337 Summer Street
As noted above, the buildings at 327 and 337 Summer Street are currently two separate buildings. They were built in 1911 and 1907, respectively, for the BWC as warehouse space for the Joseph Middlebury, Jr. Inc., a company which produced bakery and confectioners supplies. The Summer Street elevations of both buildings are eight-bays wide and constructed in traditional tripartite design. Both buildings feature ground-floor commercial space along Summer Street that is articulated with tall plate-glass windows with glazed transoms set beneath a projecting cast stone beltcourse. Their upper levels consist of evenly spaced pairs of double-hung sash windows with a top level separated by a wide brick and cast stone beltcourse. Primary brick piers extend up to high-relief corbelled brick brackets and an overhanging parapet. The red-brick rear elevations of the buildings, which face Pastene Alley, and the secondary side elevation of 337 Summer Street facing West Service Road, all extend below Summer Street by one-and-one-half-stories.

existing uses of 327 Summer Street are office, storage and light industry (ISD Permit No. 5056, Aug. 11, 1999). The lawful existing uses of 337 Summer Street are manufacturing, office, storage (ISD Permit No. 1016, Dec. 15, 1989). As noted above, Parcel C is undeveloped. 1.3.3.2 319 A Street
The building at 319 A Street was constructed in 1913 by the BWC for the Kistler Leather Co. The narrow brick building features a two-part form, rather than the tripartite form typical of the District, with the elevated first floor separated from the upper levels by a slightly projecting limestone beltcourse. The primary elevation is along A Street and features pairs of large window openings set between wide vertical piers extending up to low-relief corbelled brick brackets. The corbelled parapet wraps around the entire building and is set below a molded copper cornice. The two secondary elevations of the building are red brick, feature cast stone sills and triple windows within most of the vertical bays. Along the buildings Pastene Alley elevation, the eastern end of the ground floor is set back where a one-and-one-half-story train bay is located. The lawful existing uses of the building are office (ISD Permit No. 337, Sept. 14, 1999), service establishment (ISD Permit No. 2059, Dec. 26, 1997), and wholesale business including accessory storage (id.).
1.3.4
Project Overview
Under all alternatives, the Project entails: Combining 327 Summer Street, 337 Summer Street and Parcel C into a single parcel; Creating a single, integrated structure out of the two existing buildings at 327 and 337 Summer Street; Constructing a two-level rooftop addition to 327-337 Summer Street; Constructing the East Addition to 327-337 Summer Street located at Parcel C; and Converting the existing building at 319 A Street residential use with first-floor retail, service, entertainment-restaurant-recreational space. The Proponent is evaluating two alternative scenarios for the resulting building at 327-337 Summer Street: one with a single office tenant, and the other with residential uses above lower-level retail, service, entertainment-restaurant-recreational space. Existing and proposed dimensions for the Project are shown in Table 1-1. Existing and proposed uses for the Project are shown in Table 1-2, below.

Figures 1-9 through 1-12 depict the proposed site plans under each alternative at the Summer Street and Pastene Alley levels. Figures 1-13 through 1-16 provide perspective sketches of 327-337 Summer Street under each faade alternative. Figures 1-17 through 1-19 provide perspective sketches of 319 A Street. Floor plans and additional renderings are included in Appendix B. 1.3.4.1 327-337 Summer Street -- Residential with Glass Faade Addition Alternative
Under the residential development alternative, the Summer Street building would include 92 residential units within approximately 110,800 s.f. These include eight (8) Innovation units located on the -2 Floor and -1 Mezzanine stories facing Pastene Alley, 77 studio, 1bedroom, and 2-bedroom units across the first through fifth floors, and seven (7) penthouse units. Approximately 4,000 s.f. of Innovation office space would be located with the Innovation dwelling units on the -1 Mezzanine. The first-through-third story retail, service, entertainment-restaurant-recreational use would have approximately 25,000 s.f. of GFA, and all would be accessed from Summer Street via new accessible entries. The East Addition of approximately 18,900 s.f. would be constructed on the east faade of 337 Summer Street, including on Parcel C. Under this alternative, the East Addition would be constructed as a minimalist glass faade. It would extend approximately thirty-two (32) feet from the existing easterly face of the building, allowing the public to see through the glass curtain wall to the existing brick faade beyond. 1.3.4.2 327-337 Summer Street Residential with Brick Faade Addition Alternative
This alternative would be identical to the Residential with Glass Faade-Addition Alternative except for the visual appearance of the East Addition. Under this alternative, the East Addition would still be approximately 18,900 s.f. and extend thirty-two (32) feet from the existing easterly face of the building, however, it would be constructed in brick to mimic the surrounding architecture. To distinguish the original building from the addition, an approximately six-foot vertical strip of glass would separate the new masonry from the existing masonry. This glass strip would create a new universally accessible entry to the retail and restaurant areas. 1.3.4.3 327-337 Summer Street -- Office with Glass Faade Addition Alternative
Under the single-tenant office alternative for 327-337 Summer Street, the Proponent would still construct the approximately 15,300 square-foot, two-story rooftop addition as well as the approximately 18,900 square-foot East Addition. Office use would make up 135,800 s.f. of GFA, plus another 4,000 s.f. of Innovation office space. Employees and visitors would access the building from Summer Street via new accessible entries on the third story. A new service entry would be built at Pastene Alley. This alternative would involve the construction of the East Addition with a minimalist glass faade, as described above in Subsection 1.3.4.1.

This alternative would be identical to the Office with Glass Faade Addition Alternative except for the visual appearance of the East Addition. Under this alternative, the East Addition would have a brick faade, as described above in Subsection 1.3.4.2. 1.3.4.5 319 A Street
No matter which alternative proceeds at 327-337 Summer Street, the Project also involves the conversion of the top four floors and a portion of the first floor of the existing building at 319 A Street to approximately 43,600 s.f. of GFA in residential use, including 18 two- and three-bedroom units and residential common areas. This residential square footage includes adding an approximately 700 square-foot, lobby and stairwell that would be constructed in the former railroad bay now outside the building. The remainder of the first story would contain approximately 4,100 s.f. of retail, service, entertainment-restaurantrecreational use, for a total GFA of approximately 47,700 s.f.

Pedestrians travelling to the Project site, which is a short walk from South Station and Downtown Boston, will enliven the neighborhood. Retail, service, entertainmentrestaurant-recreational space or office space at 327-337 Summer Street would be accessible from Summer Street at grade via fully-accessible entries, including a new accessible entry on the East Addition. Under the Residential Alternative, residents of 327-337 Summer Street could access their units from an accessible entry on Pastene Alley. Pedestrians will access retail space in 319 A Street from an existing A Street entry, and residents of 319 A Street will access their units from a new, fully accessible entry and lobby on Pastene Alley. Under either alternative, no parking will be provided on-site. It is anticipated that most automobiles coming to the two Project buildings will park at the Necco Street Garage, a public garage that is owned by an affiliate of the Proponent. Other parking facilities with over 8,000 spaces, however, are also available in the immediate vicinity of the site. Ramp connections from the regional highway system into the Seaport District are located at West Service Road (I-90 west/I-93 south) and B Street (I-90 east). From these ramps, Project vehicles will follow Congress Street, turn left onto A Street, and turn right onto Garage Access Way to reach the Necco Street Garage. The primary route to the garage to/from I-93 north ramps and downtown will be via the Summer Street, Congress Street, and Seaport Boulevard bridges. From Summer Street, automobiles will turn right onto Melcher Street, right onto Necco Street, and then left onto Garage Access Way to enter the Necco Street Garage. Traffic from A Street, south of the site, will turn left onto Garage Access Way to the Necco Street Garage. Overall, exiting trips are expected to follow these routes in reverse. Automobile trip distribution patterns are shown in Figure 2-12 and Figure 2-13, for the Projects entering and exiting automobile traffic, respectively. Delivery activity for both Project sites will occur behind the buildings along Pastene Alley and not on public streets. Delivery vehicles will generally exhibit the same arrival/departure trip distribution pattern as automobiles. Pastene Alley will be one-way westbound at the West Service Road intersection and two-way along on the segment abutting 319 A Street. Deliveries coming to the 327-337 Summer Street will use West Service Road to access Pastene Alley and exit via A Street. Deliveries to 319 A Street will likely use A Street to both enter and exit Pastene Alley, although deliveries can also enter Pastene Alley from West Service Road.
1.3.6
Construction Schedule
Project construction is estimated to last approximately 12 months, with initial site work expected to begin in the second quarter of 2013.
1-29
1.4
Public Benefits
The Project provides numerous public benefits to the neighborhood and the City of Boston, including the following: Building Preservation: The Project will preserve and enhance Bostons historic building stock through the adaptive reuse of three existing buildings that are considered examples of historic warehouse and industrial building architecture and are contributing buildings in the Fort Point Channel Historic District. Neighborhood Creation: The Project will enliven the neighborhood by increasing the population density through the creation of residences as well as more accessible street-level retail and/or usable commercial office space. Property Taxes: The Project is expected to generate approximately $250,000 (Residential Alternative) to $500,000 (Office Alternative) in additional annual property taxes for the City of Boston than the property currently contributes. Construction Jobs: The Project is expected to create 150 to 200 construction-related employment opportunities. Permanent Jobs: The Project creates the potential for up to approximately 370 ongoing employment opportunities. These include approximately five building management positions, approximately 29 retail, service, entertainment-restaurantrecreational jobs, and approximately 40 innovation office jobs. Approximately 300 general office jobs would be added under the Office Alternative, or an additional 25 retail, service, entertainment-restaurant-recreational jobs would be added under the Residential Alternative.
1.5
Public Review
As part of its planning efforts, the Proponent has consulted informally or will consult with officials from City agencies, including the Boston Redevelopment Authority, the Boston Landmarks Commission, and the Boston Transportation Department (BTD), as well as elected officials, to discuss the Project. The Proponent is committed to developing an effective dialogue with the community concerning the Project. The formal community outreach begins with the filing of this Project Notification Form, and the Proponent looks forward to a productive public review.
1.6
Legal Information
1.6.1 Legal Judgments Adverse to the Proposed Project
1.6.2
The Proponent does not have a history of tax arrears on the property that it owns in the City of Boston.
1.6.3
Site Control
The Proponent acquired fee title to the Project site by two separate quitclaim deeds. The Proponent acquired fee title to 319 A Street, 327 Summer Street and 337 Summer Street by a quitclaim deed from The Boston Wharf Company dated November 23, 2005, and recorded at the Suffolk County Registry of Deeds (Registry) at Book 38553, Page 148. The Proponent acquired fee title to Parcel C by a quitclaim deed from the United States Postal Service dated September 12, 2011, and recorded at the Registry at Book 48383, Page 15. Ownership of Pastene Alley, a private way not open to public travel, is divided between the Proponent, through its ownership of 319 A Street, and the adjacent owner of 315 A Street. However, use of Pastene Alley is shared by its various abutters under a set of easement agreements. (See Harry R. Feldman, Inc., Easement Plan, No. 319 and No. 319R A Street, Boston (South Boston District), Mass., Sept. 19, 2011, recorded at the Registry at Plan Book 2011-324.)
1.7
State Review
Applicability of MEPA
The Project is not subject to review under the Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act (MEPA), which is codified at Sections 62 through 62I of Chapter 30 of the Massachusetts General Laws (MGL), and implemented under the MEPA Regulations at Section 11 of Chapter 301 of the Code of Massachusetts Regulations (CMR). MEPA and the MEPA Regulations apply to: (i) projects undertaken by a state agency; (ii) those aspects of a project that are within the subject matter of any required state permit; (iii) projects involving state financial assistance; and (iv) those aspects of a project within the area of any real property acquired from a state agency. (301 CMR 11.01(2)(a).) MEPA review is triggered when one or more of the reasons set forth above apply, and when the proposed project exceeds one or more review thresholds set forth in the MEPA Regulations. (301 CMR 11.03.) None of the reasons set forth above apply, and, if even they were, no thresholds are exceeded by the Project.
1-31
1.7.1.2
Because the Project does not require state agency action, it need not be reviewed by the Massachusetts Historical Commission (MHC) to demonstrate compliance with M.G.L. Chapter 9, Sec. 26-27c, as amended by Chapter 254 of the Acts of 1988. (950 CMR 71.00). By recorded agreement, however, the Proponent must consult with MHC regarding any development at Parcel C, the undeveloped parcel that will be merged with 327 and 337 Summer Street to build the East Addition, in compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.
1.7.2
City Review
Because the Project will substantially rehabilitate at least one building having a gross floor area of more than 100,000 s.f., it is subject to Large Project Review under Section 80B of the Boston Zoning Code. This Expanded Project Notification Form is being prepared to initiate that review, and the Proponent expects that it will facilitate a comprehensive public process.

Zoning Compliance
1.8.1 Zoning District
According to Zoning Map 4 (South Boston), the Project site is located within an underlying M-4 (Restricted Manufacturing) District, the overlaying area of the Master Plan for PDA No. 69, South Boston/The 100 Acres, the Groundwater Conservation Overlay District (GCOD), and the South Boston Restricted Parking Overlay District.
1.8.2
The PDA Master Plan was enacted by the Zoning Commission on January 10, 2007, and it codified, in large measure, the BRAs Fort Point District 100 Acres Master Plan, dated September 7, 2006. As amended effective July 21, 2012, the PDA Master Plan envisions a dense, varied, and lively urban district (PDA Master Plan at p. 2). Individual PDA Development Plans, one for 327-337 Summer Street and another for 319 A Street, will be required for the proposed Project, which is located on portions of Parcels A2 and A3 of the PDA Master Plan No. 69, and are being filed concurrently with this Expanded PNF. No provisions of the underlying M-4 zoning establish use, dimensional, design, or other requirements for projects within PDAs. Therefore, for zoning restrictions, the PDA Development Plans for the proposed Project need only comply with the PDA Master Plan.
1.8.3
Use Regulations
The PDA Master Plan permits residential/commercial mixed use at the Project site (see Exhibit E to Master Plan for PDA No. 69). Exhibit F to the PDA No. 69 Master Plan sets forth the specific use categories that are permitted. The proposed residential, retail, service, entertainment-restaurant-recreational, and office uses are permitted at the Project site by the PDA Master Plan.
1.8.4
The proposed Project involves the adaptive reuse of existing buildings plus certain vertical (rooftop) and east side (to-the-lot-line) additions to 327-337 Summer Street. The PDA Master Plan contemplates both, as summarized below (PDA Master Plan, p. 9): Infill extensions to a single existing building (e.g. the filling in of lightwells, or an extension to the lot line) should be clearly visually demarcated from the original structure, and must conform to the buildings cornice line. Rooftop additions must be equivalent to no more than ten percent of the preexisting gross floor area of the Existing Buildings; be set back from the cornice lines of the Existing Buildings to minimize and eliminate, where feasible, visibility from nearby streets; and add no more than two stories.
3011/PNF/327-337 Summer Street and 319 A Street 1-33 Project Description Epsilon Associates, Inc.
The proposed East Side (infill) and Rooftop Additions at 327-337 Summer Street, as well as the newly enclosed former railroad bay at 319 A Street, address these requirements. Extension of an existing building in the PDA Master Plan area must undergo BRA Site Plan and Design Review, as well as review by the Fort Point Channel Landmark District Commission (FPCLDC), and approval of a PDA Development Plan by the BRA Board and then the Boston Zoning Commission. The proposed Project will undergo such reviews.
1.8.5
To reinforce the prevailing physical conditions within the historic areas of the 100 Acres Master Plan Area, and to maintain strong, consistent urban street walls throughout the district, the PDA Master Plan provides that new buildings are intended to conform to a zerolot-line standard and be constructed to the sidewalk. In general, therefore, other than the height limitations specified in the PDA Master Plan, the sole dimensional regulation applicable to the proposed Project is floor area ratio (FAR). The 100 Acres Master Plan and the PDA Master Plan anticipate that the 100 Acres area may ultimately accommodate 5.9 million s.f. of net new development. The PDA Master Plan currently authorizes the build-out of approximately 70 percent of that amount (approximately 4.1 million s.f.). The remaining 1.8 million s.f. of potential development may take place when it is demonstrated to the BRA that adequate transportation infrastructure exists in the area to support the resulting new floor area. The PDA Master Plan sets maximum FARs for new construction on an aggregate basis by groupings of parcels (Parcel Groupings) within the PDA Master Plan area. These FAR limits are calculated excluding the gross floor area of any development that preexisted adoption of the PDA Master Plan on January 10, 2007. Because FAR limits apply to the specified Parcel Groupings in the aggregate, individual sites within them may have higher or lower FARs than one another. The PDA Master Plan designates the Project site as Parcel A3, which is part of the A1-A7 Parcel Grouping. The aggregate FAR limit for the A1-A7 Parcel Grouping is 1.3 under the 70 percent build-out scenario, which is now authorized. Because the 152,600 s.f. of GFA currently existing at the Project site is excluded from this limit, only the net addition of approximately 34,900 s.f. (as is the case under each alternative) is counted against FAR for the A1-A7 Parcel Grouping. The Project site measures approximately 41,470 s.f., which, on its own, would allow up to 53,925 s.f. of newly created GFA. As described above, however, FAR is calculated on an aggregate basis for Parcel Grouping A1-A7. The total lot area for Parcel Grouping A1-A7 is approximately 263,583 s.f. Therefore, at a maximum FAR of 1.3, the PDA Master Plan authorizes up to 342,658 gross s.f. of net new floor area across Parcel Grouping A1-A7.
1-34
The Existing Buildings have a combined total of approximately 152,600 s.f. of gross floor area. 3 The Project includes the addition of approximately 15,300 s.f. of GFA through a rooftop (vertical) addition to 327-337 Summer Street, the East Addition to 327-337 Summer Street of approximately 18,900 s.f. of GFA, and an infill addition to the ground floor of 319 A Street of approximately 700 s.f. of GFA. After excluding areas that do not meet the definition of GFA under the Boston Zoning Code, the total net additional GFA resulting from the Project is approximately 34,900 s.f. under each alternative. Previously built or approved GFA across Parcel Grouping A1-A7 includes 5,700 s.f. of new floor area built as part of ADD Incs completed project at 311 Summer Street, which is a portion of Parcel A2, plus approximately 163,190 s.f. of net new floor area currently under construction at 315 A Street (formerly 319 A Street Rear), which is a portion of Parcel A3, for a total of 168,890 s.f. of net new floor area. Adding 168,890 s.f. to the net new floor area for the Project of approximately 34,900 s.f. results in total net new gross floor area for the Parcel A1-A7 Grouping of approximately 203,790 s.f. When this allocation of 203,790 s.f. is, in turn, subtracted from the aggregate limit of 342,658 s.f. available under the current 1.3 FAR limit, it leaves approximately 138,868 s.f. of new gross floor area still available for Parcels A1-A7 after approval of the Project. Accordingly, under either the residential or the office alternatives, the Project is consistent with the PDA Master Plan as to floor area ratio.
1.8.6
The Master Plan for PDA No. 69 does not include specific off-street parking requirements. Where a project is subject to Large Project Review pursuant to Article 80 of the Zoning Code, the number of off-street parking spaces is determined through that process. No new parking spaces are proposed for the Project site. Some residential parking for the proposed Project would be provided in the nearby Necco Street Garage, which is owned and controlled by the Proponents affiliate W2005 BWH III Realty, LLC. The Necco Street Garage has the requisite license from the APCC. The number of loading bays required by Article 24 of the Zoning Code will also be determined during the Large Project Review process. It is proposed that the Project will make use of two existing loading bays on Pastene Alley.
Table 2 to the PDA Master Plan ascribes a floor area of 74,100 s.f. to the Site: 32,710 s.f. at 327 Summer Street; and 41,390 s.f. at 337 Summer Street. In fact, the three Existing Buildings have a total floor area of approximately 105,600 s.f. (46,900 s.f. at 327 Summer Street and 58,700 s.f. at 337 Summer Street), when those portions of the basement levels not devoted exclusively to uses accessory to building operation, or otherwise excluded from the Code's definition of "gross floor area," are taken into account. This was true when the PDA Master Plan was adopted. In conjunction with this PDA Development Plan, the Proponent seeks to amend Table 2 to the PDA Master Plan to correct this discrepancy.
1-35
1.8.7
The Site is located within the GCOD, governed by Article 32 of the Code. Article 32 requires that projects meeting certain criteria employ mitigation measures to avoid adverse impacts to groundwater levels and, in some instances, to recharge storm water to help sustain groundwater levels. The Project is subject to Article 32 because the East Addition to 327-337 Summer Street will occupy more than 50 s.f. of lot area, and the Project includes substantial rehabilitation of structures as defined under Article 2A of the Code. Based on its location in South Boston, only the requirements of Section 32-6(b) of the Code apply to the Project. Under that section, the Project must demonstrate that it will result in no negative impact on groundwater levels at the Site or adjacent lots, subject to the terms of any (A) dewatering permit or (B) cooperation agreement entered into by the Proponent and the Authority. No such permits or agreements exist. The Project is not anticipated to impact short-term or permanent groundwater levels. No new basements will be constructed. New elevator pits, having bottoms near 7 ft. above Boston City Base datum, will be fully-waterproofed. Based on groundwater levels measured near the buildings, excavation to construct the elevator pits could require very limited, short-duration dewatering that is not anticipated to affect groundwater levels outside the buildings nor impact their wood pile foundations. The dewatering effluent will be managed and recharged on site. No off-site discharge of construction dewatering effluent is planned. Construction of the Project will include the installation of drilled-in foundations (small diameter piles or possibly caissons) to support the East Addition, and possibly supplemental support for the existing wood piles. The new drilled-in foundations will be installed in a manner that does not impact groundwater levels. Project design will not include permanent foundation drainage or other long-term pumping of water. Accordingly, the Project will comply with the applicable standards set forth in Section 326(b) of the Code by resulting in no negative impact on groundwater levels within the Site or on adjacent lots. If necessary, the Proponent will incorporate systems into the Project that meet the groundwater conservation standards set forth in Section 32-6(b). The Proponent will obtain a written determination from the Boston Water and Sewer Commission as to whether such standards are satisfactorily met, and will provide a copy of this letter to the Authority and to Boston Groundwater Trust prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Consistency for the Project. Compliance with this Development Plan shall constitute compliance with Article 32 without the necessity of the Projects obtaining a conditional use permit from the Board of Appeal.
1-36
1.8.8
Linkage Requirements
The BRAs Development Impact Project (DIP) exactions (linkage) program requires the payment of development exactions, or equivalent in-kind contributions, for the creation of affordable housing and job training programs. (Zoning Code 80B-7(1).) The Project will not, under either alternative, trigger the DIP exactions requirements of Section 80B-7. The Residential Alternative would not result in any new Development Impact Uses as defined in Section 80B-7.2(c) of the Zoning Code. The Office Alternative would result in only approximately 34,900 s.f. of new Development Impact Uses as defined in Section 80B7.2(c) of the Zoning Code, which is lower than the 100,000 square-foot threshold for DIP exactions.

TRANSPORTATION
Introduction
This section describes the transportation issues associated with the proposed redevelopment of 327-337 Summer Street and 319 A Street. The Site and surrounding area are shown in Figure 1-1.
2.1.1
Project Overview
The Project, located in the Fort Point Channel neighborhood of South Boston, includes the redevelopment of two1 existing buildings. The first building, at 327-337 Summer Street, is bounded by 321 Summer Street to the west, Summer Street to the north, West Service Road to the east, and Pastene Alley, a private way not open to public travel, to the south. The second building, at 319 A Street, is bounded by A Street to the west, Pastene Alley to the north (which for this segment, the Proponent owns in fee), the building currently under construction at 315 A Street to the east (formerly known as 319 A Street Rear), and a United States Postal Service (USPS) parking lot to the south. At this stage of planning, the Proponent is evaluating a Residential Alternative and an Office Alternative for 327-337 Summer Street. The site plans for each alternative are shown in Figures 1-9 through 1-12. Table 2-1 provides a summary of the proposed development programs. Table 2-1 Development Program

2.1.2
Study Area
The study area is generally bounded by Melcher Street to the west, Congress Street to the north, West Service Road to the east, and Necco Garage Road to the south. Study area intersections, selected in coordination with the Boston Transportation Department, are shown in Figure 2-1 and include the following: Summer Street/Melcher Street; Congress Street/A Street/Thomson Place; Congress Street/West Service Road/Boston Wharf Road; Melcher Street/Necco Street; A Street/Necco Garage Road; and A Street/Melcher Street.
2.1.3
Methodology
In accordance with Boston Transportation Departments Transportation Access Plan Guidelines (2001) and the BRA Development Review Guidelines (2006), this section describes roadway, pedestrian, and bicycle conditions; transportation issues; parking and loading; and transportation goals for the proposed Project. Subsection 2.2 includes an inventory of existing (Year 2012) transportation conditions, including roadway capacities, parking, transit, pedestrian circulation, loading, and site conditions. Long-term impacts are evaluated for Year 2017, based on a five-year horizon from the existing year (2012). Expected roadway, parking, transit, bicycle, and pedestrian conditions are identified. NoBuild conditions, which include general background growth and additional vehicular traffic associated with specific planned developments near the Project site, are presented in Subsection 2.3.1. Build conditions, which include specific travel demand forecasts for the Project, are presented in Subsection 2.3.2. Transportation demand management strategies are presented in Subsection 2.4.

Summer Street is an urban principal arterial that runs generally eastwest between
Washington Street in Downtown Crossing to the west and East First Street in South Boston to the east, where it then becomes L Street. Summer Street has two lanes in each direction in the vicinity of the Project site. On-street parking is allowed on various sections of Summer Street throughout the study area. Sidewalks are provided along both sides of the roadway, are approximately 11-feet wide, and are generally uneven and in poor condition. In the study area, pavement markings on Summer Street are in good condition. Summer Street is part of the Citys Crossroads Initiative and is currently in design review by city agencies.
Melcher Street is a local road that begins at Summer Street and curves southeast to A Street.
Melcher Street consists of one travel lane in each direction, with parking on both sides of the street. Sidewalks along Melcher Street vary in width from approximately six to 10 feet and are in good condition.
Congress Street is an urban minor arterial that extends from New Sudbury Street in Boston
to Northern Avenue in South Boston. In the study area, Congress Street runs eastwest and generally comprises two lanes in each direction. Sidewalks provided along both sides of the roadway are found to be approximately eight- to 11-feet wide. Throughout most of the study area, the roadway and sidewalks are in reasonable condition. Parking is allowed on the north side of Congress Street in most of the study area, and between West Service Road and East Service Road on both sides. Congress Street is also currently in design review as part of the Citys Crossroads Initiative.
A Street is a collector street that connects Congress Street in the north with Dorchester
Avenue in the south. It provides two-way traffic flow within the study area, with parking restrictions varying from no parking to parking being allowed on one or both sides of the street. One travel lane is provided in each direction. Sidewalks provided along both sides of the road vary in width from approximately five to eight feet. A Street is generally in poor condition in the study area, with faded pavement markings and uneven sidewalks.
West Service Road (Boston Wharf Road) is a local street that runs northsouth from Seaport
Boulevard across Congress Street and under Summer Street to a point where it then curves to the east to intersect the South Boston Bypass Road. North of Congress Street, West Service Road is called Boston Wharf Road and consists primarily of one lane in each direction. Parking is allowed on both sides of Boston Wharf Road north of Congress Street. No parking is allowed in the vicinity of the Site. The sidewalks are in good condition and vary from six- to 13-feet wide.
Necco Street is a local street that runs north-south from Melcher Street to the Necco Garage

Traffic data was collected in July 2012 at the six study intersections. Turning movement counts were collected on weekdays from 7:00 to 9:00 a.m. and from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. Based on the turning-movement counts, the peak hours were identified as 8:00 to 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 to 6:00 p.m. Figure 2-2 and Figure 2-3 show existing peak hour turning volumes for study area intersections for the a.m. and p.m. peak hours, respectively. Figure 2-4 shows the peak hour pedestrian volumes and Figure 2-5 shows the peak hour bicycle volumes. Complete traffic count data are included in Appendix C.
2.2.4
Traffic operations are determined through an analysis of intersection Level of Service (LOS). LOS and delay at the intersections were analyzed using the Synchro software developed by Trafficware. Synchro 6 was used to evaluate the effects that closely-spaced intersections may have on one another. Synchro is based on the traffic operational analysis methodology of the Transportation Research Boards 2000 Highway Capacity Manual (HCM); LOS and delay (in seconds) are determined based on intersection geometry and available traffic data for each intersection. Signal timings and phasing used in this analysis were provided by BTD. Table 2-2, derived from the HCM, provides LOS criteria for signalized and unsignalized intersections. LOS A defines the most favorable condition, with minimum traffic delay. LOS F represents the worst condition, with significant traffic delay. LOS D is generally considered acceptable in an urban environment, such as the Fort Point Channel district.

Table 2-2
Level of Service
Table 2-3 and Table 2-4 show the Existing Conditions capacity analysis summary for all six study area intersections for the a.m. peak hour and p.m. hour, respectively. The tables show LOS, average delay, volume to capacity ratio, and 95th percentile queue length (feet) for the overall intersection and each approach. Under existing conditions, the following intersections or approaches operate below LOS D: At the intersection of Summer Street/Melcher Street in the a.m. peak hour, the Melcher Street northbound left/right movement operates at LOS E. In the a.m. and p.m. peak hours, the intersection of Congress Street/A Street/Thomson Place operates at LOS F and LOS E, respectively. During both peak hours, both the Congress Street westbound right movement and A Street northbound left/through/right movement operates at LOS F. At the intersection of Congress Street/West Service Road/Boston Wharf Road, the Congress Street westbound left-turn movement operates at LOS F during the afternoon peak hour. At the intersection of A Street/Melcher Street/USPS Parking Lot/319 A Driveway, the eastbound Melcher Street approach operates at LOS F due to heavy turning movements on the eastbound approach in the a.m. and p.m. peak hours. The westbound USPS driveway operates at LOS F during the a.m. peak hour, even with the minimal vehicle volumes at the approach, due to heavy volumes of conflicting vehicles traveling on A Street. No traffic was observed exiting the 319 A Street driveway during either peak period. At the intersection of A Street/Necco Garage Road, the eastbound Necco Garage Road approach operates at LOS E due to heavy volumes of conflicting vehicles traveling on A Street in the p.m. peak hour.

2.2.5
Existing Parking
At present, there are four on-site parking spaces, all of which serve 319 A Street. There are no on-site parking spaces serving 327-337 Summer Street. (Accommodation of the Projects future parking demand is presented in Section 2.3.2.11.) Figure 2-6 illustrates the on-street parking regulations within a quarter-mile, equivalent to a five-minute walk, of the Project site. In the study area, most of the parking adjacent to the Site is restricted to residential and private permits. While on-street parking in the area is limited, many off-street public parking facilities are located near the Site. As shown in Figure 2-7 and summarized in Table 2-5, about 6,900 spaces are in parking lots and about 1,450 spaces are in garages, providing a total of about 8,350 parking spaces near the Project site. About 75% of these spaces are available for public use.
2.2.6
Tenants of and visitors to the Site have several transit options. The Project is directly served by MBTA Bus Route 4, Route 7 and Route 11. Route 4 travels between North Station and Tide Street via The World Trade Center. Route 7 travels between Otis Street in Downtown Crossing to City Point in South Boston via Summer Street. Route 7 operates frequently with service every five minutes or less during peak hours, and every 15 minutes or less throughout the day. Route 11 only provides service in the outbound direction from Downtown Crossing at Bedford Street to City Point in South Boston. During the peak hour, the Route 11 runs every 20 minutes. Along Congress Street, about two blocks from the Project, three express bus routes primarily serve commuters between the North Shore (Salem and Marblehead) and the South Boston Waterfront. The Project is located within convenient walking distance slightly under a half-mile of the South Station Transportation Center, a transit hub that provides access to the MBTA Red Line, Silver Line, and seven commuter rail branches serving points south and west of Boston. South Station is also the terminus for Amtrak train service along the Northeast Corridor. Greyhound and Peter Pan provide regional and commuter bus service from South Station. Many commuters and visitors to the Fort Point Channel neighborhood travel into South Station on the Red Line, commuter rail, or other transit services, and then walk across the Fort Point Channel via Summer Street. MBTA services in the area are shown in Table 2-6 and mapped in Figure 2-8.

Pedestrian counts were taken as part of the intersection turning-movement counts in 2012 (see Figure 2-4). An inventory of sidewalks and crosswalks is provided in the intersection descriptions in Section 2.2.2. As described in greater detail above, sidewalks are generally provided along both sides of the study area roadways, with marked crosswalks provided at the signalized intersections.
2.2.8
Bicycle counts were taken as part of the intersection turning movement counts in 2012 (see Figure 2-5). No designated bicycle lanes exist within the immediate study area. Bicycle accommodation is planned along the A Street corridor as part of the City of Bostons Planned Development Area No. 69/The 100 Acres Master Plan, and the City is currently planning to implement bicycle lanes along the southern portion of the A Street corridor at West Broadway. It is expected that the City will continue implementation of bicycle accommodations north along the A Street corridor in the near future.

The South Bay Harbor Trail will ultimately connect the Fort Point Channel district of South Boston to the Pierre Lallement Bike Path along the MBTA Orange Line/Southwest Corridor Park. Segments of the trail are in place, including the Harborwalk section in South Boston and the Melnea Cass Bike Path in Roxbury. The still-incomplete connecting segment will eventually operate along portions of the I-93 frontage roads between West Fourth Street and Biosquare Drive at Boston Medical Center. Hubway is a bicycle sharing system in Metro Boston, which was launched in July 2011 in Boston with 60 stations and 600 bicycles. Near the Project site there are Hubway stations at the corner of Congress Street/Sleeper Street (14 bicycles) and at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center on Summer Street (19 bicycles). Bicycles are not available for rent during winter months. Car sharing, predominantly provided by Zipcar in the Boston area, supplies easy access to vehicular transportation for those who do not own cars. Vehicles are rented hourly or daily with all vehicle costs (gas, maintenance, insurance, and parking) included in the rental fee. Vehicles are checked out for a specific time period and returned to their designated location. A total of six Zipcars are located at two locations close to the Project site: the Necco Street garage and the Childrens Museum, on Congress Street.
2.2.9
Loading and serving activities for both buildings, and other adjacent properties, occur along Pastene Alley, a private street not open to public travel which bisects the Site. Loading docks are located along the south side of 327-337 Summer Street and on the north side of 319 A Street. Because both buildings have recently had only temporary tenants, there is minimal loading activity occurring at present.

2.3.1
No-Build Conditions
No-Build Conditions are independent of the proposed Project and include existing traffic and future background growth. Any known roadway or operational improvements are also incorporated into the No-Build Conditions.
2-21
2.3.1.1
The Site lies within the area studied by the City in its 100 Acres Master Plan. That 2006 plan, codified through the adoption in 2007 of Planned Development Area No. 69/The 100 Acres Master Plan, proposed a new street grid system that will disperse the traffic within the commercial area and provide more direct connections to the regional highway system. Currently under reconstruction as mitigation for the nearby Channel Center project, the intersection of Melcher Street/A Street will be signalized, and significant improvements will be made to pedestrian crossings. Additional improvements at this intersection include restricting the USPS driveway and the driveway behind 319 A Street to ingress only. Egress from the USPS parking lot will be relocated to the existing curb cut on West Service Road and egress from the A Street properties to Pastene Alley. These improvements have been included in the future year analysis. As a part of the City of Bostons Crossroad Initiative, a multi-disciplinary team provided a signal redesign of Congress and Summer Street intersections. Signal plans from the Crossroad Initiative were acquired and applied to No-Build and Build analysis for the intersections of Summer Street/Melcher Street, Congress Street/A Street/Thompson Place, and Congress Street/West Service Road/Boston Wharf Road. It should be noted that the purpose of the Crossroad Initiative is to improve the pedestrian service and safety within the study area, which may decrease vehicle levels of service at some locations. 2.3.1.2 No-Build Background Growth
Typically, two steps are used to calculate and determine background traffic growth. The first is to apply a general growth rate to account for changes in demographics, auto usage, and ownership. The second step is to estimate traffic generated by planned new major developments. Based on a review of historical and recent traffic counts, a 0.5% annual rate was applied to the existing intersection volumes to account for background growth. The other major planned projects in the study are listed in Table 2-7 and mapped in Figure 2-9. Some of these projects are currently under construction and will be completed by the Year 2017 (future analysis year). Construction on other projects is likely to start before 2017. The peak hour traffic generated by these projects was incorporated into the future year analysis.

2.3.1.3
The 2017 No-Build analysis uses the same methodology described in Subsection 2.2.4 for Existing Conditions. No-Build traffic volumes are shown in Figure 2-10 and Figure 2-11 for the a.m. and p.m. peak hours, respectively. The resulting intersection operations are shown in Table 2-8 and Table 2-9. Complete Synchro reports are provided in Appendix C. At Summer Street/Melcher Street, the overall LOS for the p.m. peak hour worsens from LOS C under Existing Conditions to LOS D under No-Build Conditions. This is due to the Melcher Street northbound movement worsening from LOS D under Existing Conditions to LOS F under No-Build Conditions. The a.m. peak hour remains at LOS C, but the Summer Street eastbound movement does worsen from LOS A under Existing Conditions to LOS B under No-Build Conditions. At the Congress Street/A Street/Thomson Place, the overall intersection operation remains at LOS F during the a.m. peak hour. During the a.m. peak hour, the Congress Street eastbound left/thru movement operates at LOS C under Existing Conditions and worsens to LOS E under No-Build Conditions. The Congress Street eastbound right-turn movement operates at LOS A under Existing Conditions and worsens to LOS C under No-Build Conditions. The southbound Thompson Place movement operates at LOS C under Existing conditions and deteriorates to LOS D under No-Build Conditions. During the p.m. peak hour, the overall intersection operations worsen from LOS E to LOS F. The Congress Street eastbound left/thru movement operates at LOS C under Existing Conditions and worsens to LOS F under No-Build Conditions. The Congress Street eastbound right-turn movement operates at LOS B under Existing Conditions and worsens to LOS D under No-Build Conditions. The southbound Thompson Place movement operates at LOS C under Existing conditions and deteriorates to LOS E under No-Build Conditions. The overall LOS at Congress Street/West Service Road/Boston Wharf Road worsens from LOS C under Existing Conditions to LOS E under No-Build Conditions during the a.m. peak hour. The northbound West Service Road through/right-turn movement operates at LOS B under Existing Conditions and worsens to LOS C under No-Build Conditions. The southbound Boston Wharf Road left/through movement operates at LOS D under Existing Conditions and worsens to LOS F under No-Build Conditions. With lane-use changes from the Crossroad Initiative, some movements worsen in operations during the a.m. peak hour. The eastbound Congress Street right-turn movement operates at LOS A under Existing Conditions. Under No-Build Conditions, this lane becomes a shared through/right-turn lane that operates at LOS B. During the p.m. peak hour, operations worsen from LOS D to LOS F. The southbound Boston Wharf Road left/through movement operates at LOS D under Existing Conditions and worsens to LOS F under No-Build Conditions.

The southbound Boston Wharf Road right-turn movement operates at LOS A under Existing Conditions and worsens to LOS C under No-Build Conditions. The eastbound Congress Street right-turn movement operates at LOS A under Existing Conditions. Under No-Build Conditions, this lane becomes a shared through/right-turn lane that operates at LOS F. The intersection of A Street/Melcher Street/USPS Parking Lot/319 A Street Driveway is currently unsignalized, but the future year analysis includes a new traffic signal and improved pedestrian crossings. The relocation of the USPS driveway egress movement to West Service Road and the A Street properties egress to Pastene Alley also helps to improve overall intersection operations. The intersection will operate at LOS B and LOS D during the a.m. and p.m. peak hours, respectively. At the intersection of A Street/Necco Garage, the Necco Garage eastbound approach worsens from LOS C to LOS F in the a.m. peak hour and worsens from LOS E to LOS F during the p.m. peak hour from the addition of vehicles accessing Necco Street Garage. 2.3.1.4 No-Build Conditions Public Transportation
While no specific improvements are planned for transit services in the immediate study area, completion of Phase III of the Silver Line, as described below, would directly benefit commuters and visitors to the adjacent South Boston Waterfront. Because of ongoing challenges in terms of funding and constructability, however, Phase III improvements have not been included in the No-Build or Build conditions.
Silver Line. The Silver Line is being completed in three phases, the first of which Silver
Line Washington Street opened in July 2002. It travels as a bus rapid transit (BRT) route along Washington Street between Dudley Square and Downtown. The second phase, Silver Line Waterfront, opened in December 2004 and runs as a BRT underground from South Station to Silver Line Way. The line then continues through the South Boston Waterfront aboveground to the BCEC, the Boston Marine Industrial Park, South Boston residential neighborhoods, and Logan International Airport. Silver Line Phase III, which is currently in design, will be a tunnel linking Downtown and South Station via the Boylston Street and Chinatown stations; it will connect Silver Line Phase I (Dudley Square to Downtown) and Phase II (South Station to the South Boston Waterfront). When the final phase has been completed, all three segments will connect to become the Silver Line the MBTAs fifth rapid transit line offering a seamless link between the communities of Roxbury, the South End, Chinatown, Downtown, and South Boston. This new transit line will connect passengers quickly and easily to the MBTAs other rapid transit linesthe Orange, Green, and Redto Logan Airport and to South Station, where they can board the south side commuter rail lines and Amtrak trains. The MBTA expects the Silver Line to accommodate some existing Green, Orange, and Red lines commuters and to provide additional service to attract those who currently do not use the public transit system.

2.3.1.5
Significant improvements to pedestrian crossings and sidewalks are proposed for the intersection of A Street/Melcher Street as part of the Channel Center mitigation commitments. These should be in place within the next five years. In the longer term, the 100 Acres Master Plan proposes an extension of Melcher Street eastward to West Service Road. 2.3.1.6 No-Build Bicycle Conditions
Bicycle accommodation is planned along the A Street corridor as part of the Citys 100 Acres Master Plan and the City is currently planning to implement bicycle lanes along the southern portion of the A Street corridor at West Broadway. It is expected that the City will continue implementation of bicycle accommodations north along the A Street corridor in the near future. The South Bay Harbor Trail will ultimately connect the Fort Point Channel district in South Boston to the Pierre Lallement Bike Path along the MBTA Orange Line/Southwest Corridor Park. Segments of the Trail are in place, including the Harborwalk section in South Boston and the Melnea Cass Bike Path in Roxbury. The incomplete connecting segment will eventually operate along portions of the I-93 frontage roads between West Fourth Street and Biosquare Drive at Boston Medical Center.
2.3.2
Build Conditions
The Year 2017 Build Conditions traffic impacts associated with the proposed Project are presented in this Subsection 2.3.2. 2.3.2.1 Site Access and Circulation
As shown in the site plans (Figures 1-9 through 1-12) the building at 327-337 Summer Street will have its primary doorways located on Summer Street, with secondary access available from Pastene Alley, two storeys below. The 319 A Street building will have doorways on A Street and also on Pastene Alley. For both buildings, service and loading will occur on Pastene Alley. Vehicle trips destined to the Site will park at nearby facilities. 2.3.2.2 Trip Generation
Vehicle trip generation estimates for the Project use rates derived from ITEs Trip Generation (8th Edition, 2008) fitted curve equations and average trip rates. The ITE vehicle trip generation rates presented below identify the number of unadjusted vehicle trips associated with the Project. In an urban setting well served by transit, these unadjusted vehicle trips need to be adjusted to account for other travel mode shares. Several interim
2-31
steps further refine trip generation estimates to reflect the particular characteristics of the development program and building site. These interim steps account by pass-by trips and internal trips between land uses on-site. The following ITE land use codes (LUCs) were used to develop the new project-related vehicle trips for the Project: Apartments (rental dwelling units) are units located in rental buildings with at least three other dwelling units. Calculations of the number of trips use ITEs fitted curve equation per dwelling unit.
A shopping center is an integrated group of commercial establishments that is planned, developed, owned, and managed as a unit. A shopping centers composition is related to its market area in terms of size, location, and type of store. Calculations of the number of trips use ITEs average rate per 1,000 sf.
LUC 710 General Office Building. A general office building houses multiple tenants and
is a location where affairs of businesses, commercial or industrial organizations, or professional persons or firms are conducted. An office building or buildings may contain a mixture of tenants including professional services, insurance companies, investment brokers and tenant services, a restaurant or cafeteria and service retail facilities. Calculations of the number of trips use ITEs average rate per 1,000 sf. Each alternative also has a designated Innovation Office component, which may exhibit more transitory tenant activity than standard office space. An example would be the use of the Innovation Office space to serve a temporary entrepreneurial partnership between two local start-up companies. For analysis purposes, however, the Innovation Office space was considered general office space. 2.3.2.3 Pass-by Trips
A portion of trips to the Project will be pass-by trips, which are already in the transportation network and not specifically destined to the proposed uses. ITE defines pass-by trips as trips made as intermediate stops on the way from an origin to a primary destination without a route diversion. This accounts for trips generated by people already in the area, as in common shopping districts or dense urban areas. For all time periods, a pass-by rate of 25% was applied to the retail, based on the nature of the area around the Project Site. The detailed trip generation sheets in Appendix C show the estimated pass-by trips for each time period.

2.3.2.4
The BTD publishes vehicle, transit, and walk/bicycle mode shares specific to each area of Boston. The Project site is located within BTD Area 13. As is standard practice, these specific neighborhood mode shares have been adopted and used to estimate the number of new vehicle-person trips, transit trips, and walk/bicycle trips generated by the Project. Local vehicle occupancy rates (VOR) are adopted from the 2009 National Household Travel Survey and the 2000 U.S. Census and were used to convert vehicle-person trips to vehicle trips. The Project travel mode shares (by time of day and land use) and vehicle occupancy rates are shown in Table 2-10. Table 2-10 Travel Mode Shares

Vehicle Trips
The resulting new vehicles trips associated with each alternative are shown in Table 2-11. Table 2-11 Vehicle Trips
Time Period Daily In Out a.m. Peak Hour In Out p.m. Peak Hour In Out
1) Includes 327-337 Summer Street and 319 A Street.
As shown in Table 2-11, the Residential Alternative would add 858 vehicle trips per day to local streets, with 429 entering vehicles and 429 exiting vehicles. The Project would generate 34 and 70 new vehicle trips during the a.m. peak hour and p.m. peak hour, respectively. The Office Alternative would generate more trips than the Residential Alternative, with a higher concentration of trips during the travel peak periods. Overall, 1,056 new vehicle trips per day would be generated under the Office Alternative. The Project would generate 132 and 135 new vehicle trips during the a.m. peak hour and p.m. peak hour, respectively. 2.3.2.6 Trip Distribution
The trip distribution identifies the various travel paths for vehicles arriving at nearby parking facilities and the corresponding departure travel path. The distribution is a combination of trip origin information and trip destination information. The study team developed vehicle trip distribution based on BTDs origin-destination data for Area 13. The entering and exiting trip distribution patterns are shown in Figure 2-12 and Figure 2-13, respectively. The Project-generated vehicle trips are assigned to the study intersections based on the associated trip distribution. The peak hour Project-generated vehicle trips for the Residential Alternative are shown in Figure 2-14, and Project-generated vehicle trips for the Office Alternative are shown in Figure 2-15.

2.3.2.7
To estimate 2017 Build traffic volumes, the Project-generated vehicle trips for each alternative were added to the 2017 No-Build traffic volumes. The Year 2017 Build traffic volumes for the Residential Alternative are shown in Figure 2-16 and Figure 2-17, for the a.m. and p.m. peak hour, respectively. The Year 2017 Build traffic volumes for the Office Alternative are shown in Figure 2-18 and Figure 2-19, for the a.m. and p.m. peak hour, respectively. The capacity analysis results for the Residential Alternative Build Condition are shown in Table 2-12 and Table 2-13, for the a.m. and p.m. peak hour, respectively. The capacity analysis results for the Office Alternative Build Condition are shown in Table 2-14 and Table 2-15, for the a.m. and p.m. peak hour, respectively. Complete Synchro reports are provided in Appendix C. Under the Residential Alternative, all intersections will continue to operate at the same level of service as in the No-Build Conditions, indicating that this alternative will have no significant impact to traffic operations in the study area. Under the Office Alternative, all intersections continue to operate at the same level of service as in the No-Build Conditions with the following exceptions: Congress Street/West Service Road/Boston Wharf Road. The overall level of service at this intersection remains the same as in the No-Build Conditions for both the a.m. and p.m. peak hours. In the a.m. peak hour, the Boston Wharf Road northbound left-turn movement worsens from LOS D to LOS E. A Street/ Melcher Street/ USPS Driveway/ 319 A Driveway. While the overall level of service at this intersection worsens from LOS B to LOS C and from LOS C to LOS D in the a.m. and p.m. peak hours, respectively, all operations remain at LOS D or better. These results indicate that the Office Alternative will have minimal impact to traffic operations in the study area.

Under the Residential Alternative, the Project would generate 250 daily transit trips, 17 a.m. peak hour trips, and 26 p.m. peak transit trips. Under the Office Alternative, the Project would generate 416 daily transit trips, 46 a.m. peak hour trips, and 50 p.m. peak transit trips. Given the relatively low number of new transit trips under either alternative, the existing transit services in the area will be able to accommodate the increase. 2.3.2.9 Pedestrian and Bicycle Conditions
Based on the walk mode shares presented in Table 2-10, the study team estimated the new walk/bicycle trips generated by the Project, as shown in Table 2-17. Under the Residential Alternative, the Project would generate 1,020 daily walk/bicycle trips, 46 a.m. peak hour trips, and 107 p.m. peak transit trips. Under the Office Alternative, the Project would generate 562 daily walk/bicycle trips, 64 a.m. peak hour trips, and 76 p.m. peak transit trips. Given the relatively low number of new walk/bicycle trips, the existing sidewalk and roadway networks in the area will be able to accommodate the increase under either alternative.

Bicycle Accommodations
Secure bicycle storage will be made available to Project occupants and visitors to encourage bicycling as an alternative mode of transportation. BTD has established guidelines to estimate the number of secure and protected bicycle parking/storage and outdoor spaces that should be provided with new projects.
Residential Alternative
Based on BTD guidelines, the Project would provide 120 on-site secure bicycle storage spaces and 14 public outdoor bicycle spaces assigned by site accordingly. One shower/changing facility would be provided for employees.
Office Alternative
Based on BTD guidelines, the Project would provide 61 on-site secure bicycle storage spaces and 15 public outdoor bicycle spaces assigned by site accordingly. Two shower/changing facilities would be provided for employees. Subject to necessary approvals, public bicycle racks will be provided on the sidewalks near each building entrance available for use by visitors. Bicycle racks, signs, and parking areas will conform to BTD standards and be sited in safe, secure locations. Because of the proximity of the Site to existing Hubway stations (Congress/Sleeper and Boston Convention Center), no new bicycle sharing station is required or proposed.

2.3.2.11
At present, there are four on-site parking spaces on Pastene Alley along the north side of the 319 A Street building. As part of the Project, these four spaces will be eliminated to allow for an enhanced interior lobby/stairway design at 319 A Street. The 327-337 Summer Street building does not currently have any on-site parking. BTD has established parking space guidelines throughout the City to ensure that the proper parking capacity is provided with new projects. While no parking is included on-site at the Project, an appropriate number of spaces for residents/tenants will be reserved in the nearby Necco Street garage, or other nearby facility. Table 2-18 shows the recommended BTD parking ratio for residential and office uses and the associated number of parking spaces. The retail parking demand can be met through the use of short-term meters along Summer Street and also at the numerous nearby parking facilities. (See Table 2-5.) Table 2-18 Estimated Parking Demand

Under the Residential Alternative, about 55 spaces would be retained in off-site parking facilities for residents and a few spaces to support demand from the Innovation Office space. Under the Office Alternative, about nine spaces would be reserved in off-site parking facilities for residents. An arrangement for leasing up to 98 tenant parking spots would be established with one or more nearby parking facilities to accommodate the office demand.

Loading and service operations for both buildings, including trash pick-up, will occur on Pastene Alley and not on public streets. Service operations for 327-337 Summer Street will occur along the south side of the building on Pastene Alley. Service vehicles for 319 A Street will also use Pastene Alley, along the north side of that building. Given the small number of anticipated daily deliveries, adequate capacity for loading activities is available along Pastene Alley.

Bicycle racks, signs, and parking areas will conform to BTD standards and will be sited in safe, secure locations. Orientation Packets: The Proponent will provide orientation packets to new occupants containing information on available transportation choices, including transit routes and schedules. On-site management will work with residents and tenants as they move in to help facilitate transportation for new arrivals. Car-Sharing Service: The Proponent will promote the use of the two nearby Zipcar stations at the Necco Street garage and the Childrens Museum (a total of six vehicles are stationed at these locations). Transit Passes: The Proponent will encourage commercial occupants to subsidize transit passes for their employees. A Transportation Access Plan Agreement (TAPA) will be entered into between the Proponent and BTD. The TAPA will codify the specific measures and agreements between the Proponent and the City of Boston.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Wind
3.1.1 Introduction
A qualitative assessment has been made to estimate the effect of the proposed Project on wind conditions around the proposed vertical and horizontal expansion at 327-337 Summer Street. The Project does not include any changes to the building envelope at 319 A Street, and so wind conditions were not studied there. The results of the analysis indicate that the Project will have little or no effect on wind conditions and pedestrian comfort. Wind conditions around the proposed development are expected to be similar to those that currently exist. This qualitative assessment is based on the following: a review of regional long-term meteorological data; previous wind-tunnel tests on buildings in Boston, including a proposed building adjacent to the current development site; Use of software developed by Rowan Williams Davies & Irwin Inc. (RWDI) (Windestimator 1 ) for estimating the potential wind comfort conditions around generalized building forms.
3.1.2
The Project site is located at the southwest corner of the intersection of Summer Street and West Service Road. It is bordered by Pastene Alley, a private way not open to public travel, to the south. The existing surroundings include buildings of a similar height to the immediate west and south, as well as on the north side of Summer Street, plus open parking spaces to the east. Bostons Financial District is located to the northwest, and the airport and harbor is located to the northeast and east. The existing buildings at 327-337 Summer Street are five stories above Summer Street and seven stories along Pastene Alley and West Service Road. The proposed East Addition includes two bays of horizontal expansion at the east end of 327-337 Summer Street, and two stories of vertical addition above the existing roof of the newly combined buildings. (See Figures 1-13 through 1-16.)
H. Wu, C.J. Williams, H.A. Baker and W.F. Waechter (2004), Knowledge-based Desk-Top Analysis of Pedestrian Wind Conditions, ASCE Structure Congress 2004, Nashville, Tennessee.
3-1
Primary pedestrian areas include building entrances and sidewalks along Summer Street. Limited pedestrian usage is expected along West Service Road and Pastene Alley. Potentially, the rooftop areas can be used as outdoor terraces in the summer when the weather conditions are more favorable.
3.1.3
The wind roses in Figure 3.1-1 summarize the annual and seasonal wind climates in the Boston area, based on the long-term data from Boston Logan International Airport between the years 1982 and 2011. The year-round prevailing winds are from the west-northwest. This overall annual frequency is driven primarily by a particularly high frequency of winds from this direction during the winter and spring months. In the summer and fall, winds are more commonly from the southwest, with generally lower wind speeds. On an annual basis, the most common wind directions are those that originate between the southwest and northwest. Winds from the east are also relatively common. In the case of strong winds, west-northwest and northeast are the dominant directions. Based on the local wind directionality and the orientation of the buildings and streets in the area, winds from the west-northwest and northeast are considered most important, although winds from all other directions have also been taken into account in the analysis.
3.1.4
The Boston Redevelopment Agency has adopted two standards for assessing the relative wind comfort of pedestrians. First, the BRA wind design guidance criterion states that an effective gust velocity (hourly mean wind speed plus 1.5 times the root-mean-square wind speed) of 31 mph should not be exceeded more than one percent (1%) of the time. The second set of criteria used by the BRA to determine the acceptability of specific locations is based on the work of Melbourne. 2 This set of criteria is used to determine the relative level of pedestrian wind comfort for activities such as sitting, standing, or walking. The criteria are expressed in terms of benchmarks for the one-hour mean wind speed exceeded one percent (1%) of the time (i.e., the 99-percentile mean wind speed). They are as follows:
Dangerous Uncomfortable for Walking Comfortable for Walking Comfortable for Standing Comfortable for Sitting > 27 mph > 19 mph and 27 mph > 15 mph and 19 mph > 12 mph and 15 mph < 12 mph
* Applicable to the hourly mean wind speed exceeded one percent (1%) of the time.

3.1.5
3.1.5.1
Wind tunnel tests were conducted recently by RWDI for a proposed building adjacent to the current development. Quantitative wind results are available for the existing and future surrounding conditions in the area. Because of the modest dimensions of the proposed additions to the existing buildings at 327-337 Summer Street, the potential wind conditions around the development site will be similar to those that currently exist. The following subsections present these wind tunnel results and discuss the potential wind effects of the proposed building additions. 3.1.5.2 Previous Wind Tunnel Results
Wind tunnel tests were conducted by RWDI in 2010 for a proposed building at 315 A Street (then known as 319 A Street Rear) in South Boston. That development, approved by the BRA on December 14, 2012, and currently under construction, is located immediately to the south of the current project at 327-337 Summer Street. As shown in the photos in Figure 3.1-2, three surrounding configurations (i.e., No Build, Build and Future Build) were tested in the wind tunnel. Results for the latter two configurations can be directly applied for the current project, since the development at 315 A Street (the red building in the photos) is now considered an existing building for purposes of wind study. With the 315 A Street building in place, wind conditions were found to be comfortable for walking on an annual basis along Summer Street (north faade of the current project) and on West Service Road (east faade). No unacceptable or dangerous wind conditions were detected for any season along these two streets. The future surroundings would improve these conditions, with wind speeds comfortable for standing in several areas. Elevated wind conditions were observed along Pastene Alley between 315 A Street and 327-337 Summer Street, with uncomfortable and/or unacceptable wind speeds at most measurement locations in the alley. This is primarily due to the prevailing northwest and northeast winds downwashing off of the proposed tower at 315 A Street and being channeled between the buildings (See Figure 3.1-3). Once it is complete, the new building at 315 A Street will eliminate these uncomfortable and unacceptable wind conditions in the alley. The future wind conditions were predicted to be comfortable for walking or better annually and seasonally in all pedestrian areas around the building at 327-337 Summer Street.
3-3
3.1.5.3
The existing buildings at 327-337 Summer Street are attached to each other, for a total length of approximately 360 feet. The added two bays at the east end will be approximately 32 feet in width, less than nine percent (9%) of the total building length. With the vertical addition of two stories in place, the Project is still one story shorter than the existing building to the immediate west, and considerably lower than the building at 315 A Street, to the south. The two added stories will be set back from the main faade in all directions, which will reduce the potential wind impact of the increased height on the sidewalks and entrances at grade. Therefore, wind conditions around the Project are expected to be similar to those that currently exist. In particular, wind conditions are likely to be comfortable for standing or walking along Summer Street and West Service Road on an annual basis. Along Pastene Alley, uncomfortable wind conditions are expected to remain until the full buildup of future development in the surrounding area. These wind speeds would occur under both the current conditions and the proposed development of 327-337 Summer Street. Under the proposed development, Pastene Alley would remain primarily for vehicular use, and pedestrians would not be significantly affected by wind conditions. 3.1.5.4 Future Wind Conditions on the Roof
Under both the residential and office alternatives, plans for the rooftop addition to 327-337 Summer street include terraces for use by building occupants. Ideally low wind speeds comfortable for sitting are desired for roof terraces in the summer, when these spaces will typically be in use. However, higher-than-desired wind conditions are expected on the roof, due to the increased wind exposure at higher elevations. The Proponent has committed to installing five-foot glass parapets around the roof terrace for wind control.

This qualitative assessment of wind conditions around the proposed expansion at 327-337 Summer Street was based on recent wind tunnel results for an adjacent development, as well as local weather data and our experience in the Boston area. The proposed additions make relatively minor changes to the existing dimensions of the buildings, and the future wind conditions around the development are expected to be similar to those that currently exist. Suitable wind conditions are predicted along Summer Street and West Service Road. Uncomfortable and unacceptable wind speeds currently exist along Pastene Alley, and will remain until the full build out of future development in the surrounding area.

Shadow
3.2.1 Introduction
An analysis of existing and future shadow conditions was conducted as typically required for Expanded PNFs, such as this one. The shadow study included an analysis of impacts to the area surrounding the Project site from the rooftop and East Addition at 327-337 Summer Street. The Project does not include any changes to the building envelope at 319 A Street, and so shadow conditions were not studied there. Results of the analysis indicate that the Project will not cause substantial impacts to the surrounding area. In general, impacts will be primarily to the immediate surrounding public ways and sidewalks. No shadow from the Project is anticipated to fall on existing or proposed open spaces or public parks in the area. While some new shadow will fall onto sidewalks of adjacent streets, no shadow from the Project is expected to be cast onto MBTA subway or bus stations.
3.2.2
Methodology
The shadow analysis examines existing and build condition shadow impacts for the 9:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m., and 3:00 p.m. hours during the Vernal Equinox (March 21), Summer Solstice (June 21), Autumnal Equinox (September 21), and the Winter Solstice (December 21). In addition, shadow studies were conducted for the 6:00 p.m. time period during the Summer Solstice and Autumnal Equinox. The shadow analysis presents shadow from the Project as well as the existing shadow and illustrates the incremental impact of the Project. The analysis focuses on major pedestrian areas, public open spaces, bus stops and subway stations, and the streets and sidewalks adjacent to and in the vicinity of the Project site. For the purposes of clarity, shadow from the proposed Project is shown in blue, so as to be distinguishable from the dark gray existing shadow cast in the Project area. Any shadow impacts to historic resources in the area will be discussed in Section 5.0, Historic Resources. Shadows have been determined using the applicable altitude and azimuth data for Boston. Results of the shadow impact study are discussed in the following subsections, and are supported by Figures 3.2-1 through 3.2-14, which are located at the end of this subsection.
3.2.3
In the morning hours of the Vernal Equinox, the low sun will cast a new shadow to the south of the Project site on Pastene Alley. At noon, new shadow from the Project will be cast on part of Summer Street and the sidewalk in front of the East Addition. At 3:00 p.m. on the Vernal Equinox, new shadow from the Project will be limited to a small area of land in a paved area behind 381 Congress Street. (See Figures 3.2-1 through 3.2-3.)

3.2.4
New shadow will be cast to the south of the Project Site on Pastene Alley in the morning during the Summer Solstice. At noon, new shadow will be cast onto the Summer Street sidewalk in front of the East Addition and a small part of the Summer Street eastbound shoulder. At 3:00 p.m., new shadow will be cast onto a part of the Summer Street eastbound lane on the bridge over West Service Road. At 6:00 p.m., new shadow from the Project will extend the shadow cast on Summer Street sidewalk and Summer Street westbound shoulder, as well as onto a Congress Street parking lot. (See Figures 3.2-4 through 3.2-7.)
3.2.5
In the morning of the Autumnal Equinox, new shadows will only include a narrow band cast on Pastene Alley behind 327-337 Summer Street. At noon, the sun will cast new shadow north of the Project site, extending the existing shadow on Summer Street and the Summer Street sidewalk in front of the East Addition. No new shadows will be caused by the Project at 3:00 p.m. or 6:00 p.m. (See Figures 3.2-8 through 3.2-11.)
3.2.6
A narrow band of new shadow will be cast on part of the Summer Street eastbound lane and the sidewalk in front of the Project site in the morning during the Winter Solstice. At noon, new shadow will be cast on part of Summer Street and sidewalks on both sides, and on a small paved area next to 322 Summer Street. At 3:00 p.m., a narrow band of new shadow will be cast across Summer Street and sidewalks on both sides in front of the East Addition. (See Figures 3.2-12 through 3.2-14.)
3.2.7
Conclusions
The shadow study analysis provides insight into potential impacts of the Project on the streets, sidewalks, bus stops and subway stations, and open spaces in the Projects vicinity. The results indicate that the Project causes minimal shadow impacts to the surrounding area. Shadow impacts throughout the year will primarily extend existing shadows in the Project area. The most significant shadow will be cast onto the surrounding area during the morning hours, when the sun is low in the eastern sky, creating shadow from the East Side. Addition to 327-337 Summer Street. Some new shadow will fall onto sidewalks of adjacent streets. No shadow from the Project is expected to be cast onto MBTA subway or bus stations. No shadow from the Project is anticipated on existing or proposed open spaces or public parks (i.e., Channel Park and the Boston Harborwalk) in the area.

Daylight
3.3.1 Introduction
The purpose of the daylight analysis is to estimate the extent to which a proposed Project will affect the amount of daylight reaching the streets and the pedestrian areas adjacent to the Project site. As is typically required by the BRA, the daylight analysis for the Project considers existing and proposed daylight conditions as well as those of the surrounding area. The results of the analysis indicate that although increases in daylight obstruction are anticipated due to new construction for the Project, the resulting conditions will be consistent with daylight obstruction values along nearby streets and typical of urban areas.
3.3.2
Methodology
The daylight analysis was performed using the Boston Redevelopment Authority Daylight Analysis (BRADA) computer program. 3 This program measures the percentage of sky-dome that is obstructed by a project and is a useful tool in evaluating the net change in obstruction from existing to build conditions at a specific site. Using BRADA, a silhouette view of the building is taken at ground level from the middle of the adjacent city streets or pedestrian ways centered on the Project. The faade of the building facing the viewpoint, including heights, setbacks, corners and other features, is plotted onto a base map using lateral and elevation angles. The two-dimensional base map generated by BRADA represents a figure of the building in the sky dome from the viewpoint chosen. Due to the constraints of the BRADA program, the setbacks of the building may be simplified or the building may be divided into sections in some cases. The BRADA program calculates the percentage of daylight that will be obstructed on a scale of zero percent to 100 percent based on the width of the view, the distance between the viewpoint and the building, and the massing and setbacks incorporated into the design of the building; the lower the number, the lower the percentage of obstruction of daylight from any given viewpoint. This daylight analysis compares three conditions: Existing conditions; Proposed conditions; and The context of the area.
Method developed by Harvey Bryan and Susan Stuebing, computer program developed by Ronald Fergle, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, September 1984.
3-24
Viewpoints for the existing and proposed condition were chosen from the two public ways surrounding 327-337 Summer Street: Summer Street (Viewpoint 1) and West Service Road (Viewpoint 2). Viewpoint 3 was chosen from Pastene Alley, which runs behind 327-337 Summer Street, along the southern edge of the Project site, although this alley is not anticipated to experience a high-level of pedestrian activity, and it is a private way not open to public travel. Additionally, this study considered area context points to provide a basis of comparison to existing conditions in the surrounding area. These viewpoints were taken along Summer Street (AC1), A Street (AC2) and Necco Court (AC3). These viewpoints and area context points are illustrated on Figure 3.3-1. The 319 A Street building massing will remain the same, and therefore its daylight obstruction will not change as a result of the Project.
3.3.3
The results for each viewpoint under each condition are described in Table 3.3-1. Figures 3.3-2 through 3.3-4 illustrate the BRADA results for each analysis and are located at the end of this subsection.
3.3.4
The Project area is densely populated and characterized by a mix of uses, including retail, residential, commercial, institutional, and industrial uses. The Project site is currently occupied by two attached buildings that stand five stories above Summer Street and seven stories above West Service Road and Pastene Alley. Existing daylight obstruction values at the Project site range from 40.9 percent along West Service Road to 88.1 percent along Pastene Alley, as shown in Table 3.3-1. To evaluate general daylight conditions in the area, the analysis included three area context viewpoints, some of which were included in previous filings with the BRA. From Summer Street, the buildings at 312-330 Summer Street (AC1) have a daylight obstruction value of 61.8 percent. The six-story building at 300 A Street (AC2) has an obstruction value of 80.6 percent from the center of A Street. From Necco Court (AC3), the three adjacent buildings at 49, 51 and 63 Melcher Street are anticipated to have an obstruction value of 93.9 percent. Table 3.3-1 Daylight Obstruction Values

Conclusions
The daylight analysis conducted for the Project describes existing and proposed daylight obstruction conditions at the Project site and in the surrounding area. The results of the BRADA analysis indicate that daylight obstruction will increase due to the additions proposed as part of the Project. The daylight obstruction related to the Project will be similar to that found in the surrounding area, and are typical of urban areas.
3.4
The Proponent is considering an option to construct the East Addition to 327-337 Summer Street with glass facades. The Rooftop Addition to that building is proposed with glass facades. This Subsection 3.4 includes an analysis of the potential for solar glare impacts on area streets, highway approaches, and nearby public open spaces from those glass facades. The Project would have substantially less solar glare impacts if the East Addition were clad in masonry, as proposed under a second design option. During seven of the 12 time periods considered, the glass additions at 327-337 Summer Street are not expected to result in adverse solar glare impacts because the solar reflection will be outside the cone of vision for pedestrians and vehicular traffic. The five time periods in which such impacts are expected include 3:00 PM during the vernal equinox, 9:00 AM during the autumnal equinox, and 9:00 AM, 12:00 noon and 3:00 PM during the winter solstice. Solar glare was analyzed for the Project at the eastern end of 327-337 Summer Street and for the two new levels of that buildings Rooftop Addition. This analysis is conservative in that it assumes the exterior skin of the building faades to be smooth, specular and 100percent reflective glass. In actuality, these glass exterior would be a low-emittance (Low-E) glass with a reflectivity substantially below 100-percent. As a result, impacts to the surrounding area will be substantially less than those depicted in Figures 3.4-1 through 3.45.
3.4.2
Methodology
3-31
Reflected sunlight occurs within the normal human viewing range when the suns altitude angle is 30 degrees or fewer above the horizon and the reflected sunlight is 65 degrees to the right or left of a forward line of sight. Sunlight that is reflected in the same direction as, or that runs perpendicular to, pedestrian or vehicular traffic has no solar glare impact because it is outside the cone of vision. Solar glare is generally described as being either primary or secondary. Primary glare pertains to glare caused by a direct light source, such as the sun, whereas secondary glare is caused by reflected light, also often referred to as reflective glare. Reflective glare is generally of two types: spot glare, in which parallel light rays from the sources are reflected parallel from the reflective surface; and scattered glare, which occurs when parallel light rays from a source are reflected from the reflecting surface in a non-parallel fashion. Spot glare from reflected sunlight is actually quite common; however, it rarely creates a visual nuisance because the angles of reflectance are usually sufficiently large that the angle of incidence with the horizon is greater than 30 degrees, and so does not intrude on vision unless the viewer tilts his or her head upward. Reflective glare from the sun, whether spot and scattered type, is most noticeable during the early or late hours of the day, when the altitude of the sun above the horizon is low, or during the winter months when the angle of the sun is continuously at an angle of less than 30 degrees. Lower solar altitude, typical of the early and late hours of the day and the winter months, produces glare that is within the normal cone of vision. This low altitude causes the suns light to pass through more of the atmosphere. The result is that the intensity of sunlight is much lower than when the sun is at a high angle. Oftentimes, low-angle sunlight cannot reach the street level to affect pedestrians and motorists. Distant glare also has less effect on the human eye because it is out of the field of focus of a pedestrian or motorist. Impacts from glare are studied out to 400 feet from the reflective surface, where most of the impact would occur. Reflective glare outside 400 feet is considered insignificant due to the low solar intensity, and so impacts occurring at that radius and beyond are not addressed in this analysis. Conversely, those areas within 400 feet of each Project building will be referred to in this analysis as the region of impact. The adverse effects of glare on vision are often analyzed in terms of visual discomfort and visual disability. Discomfort occurs when a relatively intense light (compared to the background) is seen before the eye has had sufficient time to adapt to it. Squinting and physical avoidance are signs of discomfort. Disabilities can arise when the eyes cannot adjust simultaneously to a bright light source and a darker background. An example of this is the momentary loss of clarity that occurs when a driver is faced with bright, high-angle headlights of an oncoming vehicle.
3-32
Solar glare impacts are calculated using solar altitude and azimuth angles and geometry. The lights angle of reflectance can be determined if its angle of incidence is known, which, in the horizontal plane, is determined using the suns azimuth angle and the orientation of the reflective surface. By projecting the suns rays from the corners of a given building faade facing the sunlight, the potential area affected by the solar glare can be determined. The distance that the reflected sunlight will extend is determined by projecting the suns rays, using the appropriate altitude angle, from the top of the reflective surface. The reflected ray is then extended until it intersects ground level or another building. In some cases, particularly in urban settings, adjacent buildings will intercept reflected light. The reflected light can either be completely blocked by a building or partially intercepted. Existing buildings also act to intercept incoming rays and thus reduce the amount of sunlight actually striking reflective surfaces of proposed buildings.
Building Materials
Two general types of exterior building surfaces can be distinguished: (1) specular (mirrorlike); and (2) porous. Building exteriors that have smooth, specular surfaces reflect the suns rays in a parallel fashion, producing an image of the light source with intensity equal to that of the source, multiplied by the building surfaces reflectivity. Porous surfaces will scatter the suns rays in a number of directions, thereby diffusing it and resulting in scattered glare. Porous surfaces often will appear brighter than specular ones; however they will actually reflect light at a lower intensity than the specular surfaces.
3.4.3
The Projects reflective glare impacts are discussed in detail below for each of the time periods evaluated. Figures illustrating potential impacts are included with a discussion of the impacts, and the technical data used in the analysis are included on each figure. To provide a clear depiction of the source of potential glare, one graphic depicts glare for each time period. 3.4.3.1 Spring Equinox
The solar altitude in Boston on March 21 at 9:00 AM is 33.3, and at 12:00 PM is 48. As noted above, reflected sunlight occurs within the normal human viewing range when the suns altitude angle is 30 or less above the horizon. Therefore, solar glare analyses for March 21 at 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM were not conducted because any solar glare during these time periods will be out of the cone of vision. At 3:00 PM, the solar altitude in Boston is 30.5, which is only marginally higher than the 30 limit of the cone of vision for pedestrians and motorists, but such that solar glare impacts may be noticeable. Incoming solar rays will be blocked to most of the western and southern faces of the additions by the high-rise building at 315 A Street now under construction and the adjacent Summer Street building. Just a small region at the southwest corners of the Rooftop Addition will receive incoming sunlight. As shown in Figure 3.4-1, the incoming sunlight from the southwest will be reflected off of the westernmost end of the southern facade and the southernmost end of the western faade of both levels of the proposed Rooftop Addition. The reflected glare will fall onto the roof of the next lower tier of the building, with no reflected glare reaching the ground. 3.4.3.2 Summer Solstice
Solar glare analyses for the summer solstice (June 21) were not conducted because any solar glare during the 9:00 AM, 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM time periods will be out of the cone of vision. This is because the suns altitude in Boston on that date is above 30 for each time period. 3.4.3.3 Autumnal Equinox
Because the altitude of the sun in Boston at 9:00 AM on the autumnal equinox (September 21) is below 30, an analysis was conducted for that time period. At that time, incoming light from the east-southeast would reflect off the eastern and northern facades of the proposed East Addition and Rooftop Addition. As shown in Figure 3.4-2 reflected glare from the East Addition will extend across West Service Road, however it will not impact drivers or pedestrians because the reflected light would be nearly perpendicular to the traffic flow (i.e., out of the cone of vision). In addition, there will be a very narrow band of glare from the north side of the East Addition that could potentially affect traffic or
3-34
pedestrians travelling eastbound on Summer Street. This impact will be noticeable for a short duration. Reflected light from the Rooftop Addition eastern and northern faades will extend across the roof of the next lower tier, but will not reach the ground. At 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM on September 21 the position of the sun in Boston is such that solar glare will be out of the cone of vision; therefore, solar glare analyses were not conducted for those time periods. 3.4.3.4 Winter Solstice
The winter period is generally of most concern for solar glare in Boston. During the winter solstice (December 21), the solar altitude angle in Boston is continuously below 30. Therefore, an analysis was done for 9:00 AM, 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM. Generally, impacts during the winter solstice are somewhat lessened because the reflected sunlight becomes more diffused as the solar altitude drops closer to the horizon, and sunlight must pass through a greater thickness of atmosphere. Solar glare impacts from the Project during the winter solstice are shown in Figures 3.4-3 through 3.4-5. Of the three times analyzed, 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM are expected to be the times during which there are instances of potential solar glare impacts. As shown in Figure 3.4-3, at 9:00 AM during the winter solstice, reflected sunlight from the east faade of the East Addition would not affect eastbound traffic on Summer Street, since the reflected light is heading in the same direction as the traffic, however the glare does extend in a small area into the westbound lane which could potentially affect traffic heading westbound on Summer Street. Pedestrians walking to the west on the southern side of Summer Street may also be affected. A small region on West Service Road near the East Addition will experience glare crossing it. This may minimally affect drivers and pedestrians since the angle of the reflected light is crossing their path near the edge of the cone of vision. The eastern facades of the Rooftop Additions will reflect light as well. The solar glare from these additions will extend over the rooftops of the next lower levels. The southern faade of the additions will also reflect sunlight at 9 AM on December 21 as shown in Figure 3.4-3. A narrow band of reflected sunlight from the south side of the East Addition will extend into Pastene Alley, the private way that separates 327-337 Summer Street from 315 A Street. Reflected sunlight from the southern faade of the Rooftop Addition will fall onto the roof of the next lower tier and will not reach any surrounding ground levels. At noon, as shown on Figure 3.4-4, incoming rays from the south will be blocked by the 315 A Street building. Only the eastern edge of the southern faade of the East Addition will receive incoming solar rays. Reflected light from the southern faade of the East Addition will fall in Pastene Alley. Incoming rays will also be blocked from reaching the southern part of the eastern face of the Penthouse Additions. Incoming rays will reach the entire east face of the East Addition. Reflected sunlight from the east faade of the East
3011/PNF/327-337 Summer Street & 319 A Street 3-35 Environmental Component Epsilon Associates, Inc.
Addition would potentially affect traffic heading westbound on Summer Street and southbound on West Service Road. Note that there is an area of no glare on the ground beyond Summer Street. This is because Summer Street is elevated above West Service Road, and the elevated roadbed itself casts a shadow on the ground blocking the reflected glare. Beyond the distance of the shadow, the reflected glare reaches the ground. Reflected light from the east faade of the Rooftop Addition falls onto the roof of the next lower tier and does not reach any surrounding ground levels. At 3:00 PM, the 315 A Street building will block many of the incoming solar rays to the southern side of 327-337 Summer Street. Incoming rays will reach the western edge of the southern faade of the Rooftop Addition. As shown in Figure 3.4-5, at 3:00 PM, reflected light from the southern faade of the Rooftop Addition will result in glare falling onto the roof of the next lower tier and is not expected to reach the ground. Therefore reflected light from the Rooftop Addition is not expected to adversely impact any pedestrian or vehicular traffic areas.
3.4.4
It is anticipated that the Project will have little effect on the thermal heat gain of neighboring structures. The low reflectivity of new glass walls will not only mitigate solar glare, but will also reduce the heat gain on nearby buildings by the same intensity. During time periods with high sun angles, the amount of reflected solar radiation cast upon existing building walls and roofs will be necessarily limited, further reducing the energy received. At low sun angles in the winter, although there is more glare than in summer, the thermal energy is far less due to the thickness of atmosphere through which the light must travel, making potential heat gain less of a negative concern. Heat loading from a reflective high-rise building is primarily a concern for other structures with glass facades (i.e., other high-rises). These high-rise buildings often use curtain wall construction and architectural glass surfaces, which expose the full surface of such buildings to radiation influences. Other than 315 A Street, which is not clad solely in glass, there are no high-rise buildings in the area. Typical perimeter wall materials for area buildings include masonry or other dense materials, with limited glazed areas, normally punched windows. Based on the five time periods studied in this subsection, impacts from solar reflection may impact the 315 A Street building during the morning hours in the winter. Due to the Projects use of Low-E glass and the low intensity of reflected sunlight during the periods of the year when reflections are most prevalent, the amount of heat loading on 315 A Street is anticipated to be minimal.

Conclusions
Under the most conservative assumptions, solar glare impacts from the Project are not expected to occur for seven of the 12 time periods considered, because the solar reflection will be outside the cone of vision for pedestrians and vehicular traffic. For the five other time periods studied, reflected light from the Rooftop Addition is not expected to adversely impact any pedestrian or vehicular traffic areas, while solar glare impacts from the East Addition could impact narrow areas of Summer Street, West Service Road, and Pastene Alley. This solar glare analysis assumes that the exterior skin of the new additions to 327-337 Summer Street will be specular, smooth, and 100-percent reflective glass. In actuality, the facades of these additions will not be uniformly specular and smooth, and will use Low-E glass with a reflectivity substantially below 100 percent. Certain areas, as depicted in the figures to this Subsection 3.4, are expected to receive reflected sunlight, but the intensity will be relatively low. The Proponent will mitigate these potential solar glare impacts by continuing to evaluate faade design and materials for the two additions.
3.5
It is expected that the majority of stationary sources of Air-pollutant emissions (boilers, engines, etc) would be subject to MassDEPs Environmental Results Program. Thus, any air quality impacts would be mitigated by this program and air impact analyses would be done at the time of Mass DEP permitting. An air quality analysis was conducted to determine the impact of pollutant emissions from mobile source emissions generated by the Project. Because two alternatives are being considered for the use of 327-337 Summer Street once it is renovated, four cases were examined in this analysis: Existing, No-Build, Residential Alternative, and Office Alternative. A microscale analysis is typically performed to evaluate the potential air quality impacts of carbon monoxide (CO) due to traffic flow around the Project area. The impacts were added to monitored background values and compared to the Federal National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). The standards were developed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to protect the human health against adverse health effects with a margin of safety.
3-42
The modeling methodology was developed in accordance with the latest MassDEP modeling policies and Federal modeling guidelines. 4 The air quality analysis results show that CO concentrations at all receptors studied are well under thresholds set by the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) promulgated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Modeling assumptions and backup data for results presented in this subsection are provided in Appendix D.
3.5.2
Microscale Analysis
A microscale analysis is used to determine the effect on air quality of the increase in traffic generated by a project. A microscale analysis is typically required for a project at intersections where: 1) project traffic would impact intersections or roadway links currently operating at Level of Service D, E, or F or would cause LOS to decline to D, E, or F; 2) project traffic would increase traffic volumes on nearby roadways by 10% or more (unless the increase in traffic volume is less than 100 vehicles per hour); or, 3) the project will generate 3,000 or more new average daily trips on roadways providing access to a single location. The microscale analysis involves modeling of CO emissions from vehicles idling at and traveling through signalized intersections. Predicted ambient concentrations of CO for the Build and No-Build cases are compared with federal and state ambient air quality standards for CO. The microscale analysis typically examines breathing-level (1.8 meter) CO impacts due to traffic queues in the immediate vicinity of a project. CO is used in microscale studies to indicate roadway pollutant levels since it is the most abundant pollutant emitted by motor vehicles and can result in so-called "hot spot" (high concentration) locations around congested intersections. NAAQS have been established by the EPA for CO to protect the public health (known as primary standards). These standards do not allow ambient CO concentrations to exceed 35 parts per million (ppm) for a one-hour averaging period and 9 ppm for an eight-hour averaging period, more than once per year at any location. The widespread use of CO catalysts on late-model vehicles has reduced the occurrences of CO hotspots. Air quality modeling techniques (computer simulation programs) are typically used to predict CO levels for both existing and future conditions to evaluate compliance of the roadways with the standards. The analysis followed the procedure outlined in EPAs intersection modeling guidance. 5 The microscale analysis has been conducted using the latest versions of EPA MOBILE6.2 and CAL3QHC to estimate CO concentrations at sidewalk receptor locations.

Existing (2012) and future year (2017) emission factor data calculated from the MOBILE6.2 model, along with traffic data, were input into the CAL3QHC program to determine CO concentrations due to traffic flowing through the selected intersections. Existing background values of CO at the nearest monitor location in Kenmore Square, Boston, were obtained from the MassDEP. CAL3QHC and AERMOD results were then added to background CO values of 1.9 ppm (one-hour) and 1.5 ppm (eight-hour), as provided by MassDEP, to determine total air quality impacts due to the Project. This value was compared to the NAAQS for CO of 35 ppm (one-hour) and 9 ppm (eight-hour). 3.5.2.1 Intersection Selection
An analysis of the six intersections from the traffic study (Section 2.0) was conducted. Microscale modeling was performed for the intersections that met the aforementioned criteria for microscale analyses: Congress Street, A Street, and Thomson Place; Congress Street, West Service Road, and Boston Wharf Road Summer Street and Melcher Street; and, A Street and Melcher Street. The traffic volumes and LOS calculations provided in Chapter 2 form the basis of evaluating the traffic data versus the microscale thresholds. It should be noted that in the 2017 cases, the USPS driveway at A Street and Melcher Street becomes one-way, with no exit to A Street. 3.5.2.2 Emissions Calculations (MOBILE6.2)
The EPA MOBILE6.2 computer program was used to estimate motor vehicle emission factors on the roadway network. Emission factors calculated by the MOBILE6.2 model are based on motor vehicle operations typical of daily periods. The Commonwealths statewide annual Inspection and Maintenance (I&M) program was included, as well as the state specific vehicle age registration distribution. The input files for MOBILE6.2 for the existing (2012) build year (2017) were provided by MassDEP. As is typical, minor edits to the files were necessary to allow the program to output emission factors for the various speeds used in the analysis. The current version of MOBILE6.2 does not explicitly calculate idle emissions. However, idle emissions can be obtained by assuming a vehicle speed of 2.5 mph (the lowest speed MOBILE6 will model). The resulting emission rate given in (grams/mile) is then multiplied by 2.5 mph to estimate idle emissions (in grams/hour). Mobile emissions are calculated
3-44
based on actual speeds at which free-flowing vehicles travel through the intersections. A speed of 30 mph is used for all free-flow traffic. Speeds of 10 and 15 mph were used for right (and U-turns, if necessary) and left turns, respectively. Winter CO emission factors are typically higher than summer. Therefore, winter vehicular emission factors were conservatively used in the microscale analysis. 3.5.2.3 Receptors and Meteorology Inputs
Sets of up to 100 receptors were placed in the vicinity of each of the modeled intersections. Receptors extended approximately 500 feet on the sidewalks along the roadways approaching the intersection. The roadway links and receptor locations of the modeled intersections are presented in Figure 3.5-1 through 3.5-4. For the CAL3QHC model, limited meteorological inputs are required. Following EPA guidance, 6 a wind speed of one m/s, neutral stability class D (4), and a mixing height of 1,000 meters was used. To account for the intersection geometry, wind directions from 0 to 350, every 10, were selected. A surface roughness length of 321 cm was selected. 7 3.5.2.4 Impact Calculations (CAL3QHC)
The CAL3QHC model predicts one-hour concentrations using queue links at intersections, worst-case meteorological conditions, and traffic input data. The one-hour concentrations were scaled by a factor of 0.7 to estimate eight-hour concentrations. 8 The CAL3QHC methodology was based on EPA CO modeling guidance. Signal timings were provided directly from the traffic modeling runs. The CAL3QHC input parameters are also described in Appendix D. 3.5.2.5 Background Concentrations
To estimate background pollutant levels representative of the area, the most recent air quality monitor data reported by the MassDEP in their Annual Air Quality Reports was obtained for 2007 to 2011. MassDEP guidance specifies the use of the latest three years of available monitoring data from within 10 kilometers of the Project site. Since some pollutants are no longer monitored, data prior to the most recent three years is used.

Link and Receptor Locations for CAL3QHC modeling of Intersection 2: Congress St., W. Service Rd., & Boston Wharf Rd.
The closest monitors in Boston Are located at 174 North Street in the North End, One City Square in Charlestown, and at Kenmore Square. Since monitors do not always sample for all pollutants, the nearest monitor for each pollutant was identified. A summary of the background air quality concentrations are presented in Table 3.5-1. Overall air quality is generally good in the area, as all observed concentrations are currently in compliance with applicable NAAQS. Background CO concentrations were determined from the closest available monitoring stations to the proposed Project. For use in the microscale analysis, background concentrations of CO in ppm were required. The corresponding maximum background concentrations in ppm were 1.9 ppm for one-hour and 1.5 ppm for eight-hour CO.

Results
The results of the maximum one-hour predicted CO concentrations from CAL3QHC are provided in Tables 3.5-2 through 3.5-5 for the modeled scenarios. Eight-hour average concentrations are calculated by multiplying the maximum one-hour concentrations by a factor of 0.7. 9 The results of the one-hour and eight-hour maximum modeled CO ground-level concentrations from CAL3QHC were added to EPA-supplied background levels for comparison to the NAAQS. These values represent the highest potential concentrations at the intersection as they are predicted during the simultaneous occurrence of "defined" worst-case meteorology. The highest one-hour traffic-related concentration predicted in the area of the Project, for the modeled conditions (1.4 ppm) plus background (1.9 ppm) is 3.3 ppm at Congress Street, A Street, and Thomson Place, in all 2017 cases. The highest eighthour traffic-related concentration predicted in the area of the Project for the modeled conditions (0.9 ppm) plus background (1.5 ppm) is 2.4 ppm for the same location and cases. Both concentrations are well below the one-hour NAAQS of 35 ppm and the eighthour NAAQS of 9 ppm. It would be expected that any other mitigation measures implemented to improve traffic flow at any of the modeled intersections would result in further improved air quality conditions.
3.5.4
Conclusions
Using conservative estimates, the CO concentrations at the nearest receptors for impacts from the studied intersection, plus monitored background values, are well under the CO NAAQS thresholds.

Geotechnical / Groundwater
3.8.1 Introduction
This subsection describes site subsurface soil and groundwater conditions, existing building foundation configuration, planned foundation construction activities for the proposed development, and mitigation measures for protection of adjacent structures and for maintaining nearby groundwater levels during construction.
3.8.2
Ground surface adjacent to the existing buildings at 327 and 337 Summer Street varies from about El. 15 Boston City Base Datum (BCB) at the rear (south) side along Pastene Alley to El. 38 to 40 BCB at the front (north) side along Summer Street. The foundation walls for the buildings along Summer Street also serve as retaining walls for the Summer Street embankment, which transitions into the north abutment for the Summer Street Bridge near the easternmost end of the building. The main entrances and ground floor of the buildings are at the Summer Street level. The buildings each have two levels that extend below Summer Street with a sub-basement level partially below Pastene Alley grade; the sub-basement floor is at about El. 12 BCB. According to plans for the buildings prepared for the Boston Wharf Company, the buildings are supported on wood-pile foundations with the pile tops cut off at or about El. 6 BCB. The wood piles were typically driven through fill and organic soils to bear in the top of the hard clay crust, similar to most of the former BWC buildings in the area. The following buildings are in the immediate proximity of the subject structures: 321 Summer Street 319 A Street 315 A Street 10-story masonry building 5-story masonry building 22-story concrete-framed building currently under construction (formerly 319 A Street Rear)
3-56
3.8.3
Proposed Construction
The proposed development scheme includes maintaining the existing five-story structures at 327 and 337 Summer Street, combining them into a single building, and adding two new floors on the roof. Other than enclosing an approximately 700 square-foot loading area, there are no changes proposed at 319 A Street. At the eastern end of 337 Summer Street, which faces West Service Road, a new five-story addition with two levels below Summer Street, and having a footprint of about 3,000 square feet, will be constructed. No subbasement space is planned for this East Addition.
3.8.4
The site is located within an area of South Boston that was filled during the early to mid 19th century. Information on subsurface soil and bedrock conditions in the site vicinity is available from test boring data at nearby properties, test borings completed in the early 1990s for the adjacent Central Artery (I-93)/Tunnel (I-90) Project to the south, and other sources. Subsurface investigations will be performed at the Project site to assess existing foundations and enable design and construction of foundations for the proposed building addition. Generalized subsurface conditions are described below, listed in order of increasing depth below ground surface: Miscellaneous Fill Typically comprised of sand, silt, clay and gravel with varying amounts of demolition debris and other materials. Fill thickness in this area generally ranges from about 13-feet (ft) to 15-ft thick (beneath Pastene Alley) to up to 40-ft thick (as measured from beneath Summer Street grade). The elevation of the bottom of the fill layer is anticipated to be near El. 0 to El. 3 BCB. Organic Deposits Organic silt with peat, 3- to 5-ft thick where encountered and extending to about El. -3. Marine Clay Deposits (Boston Blue Clay) - Silty clay, typically very stiff at the top and gradually softening with depth. The clay thickness is anticipated to be about 42 ft to 47 ft, extending to about El. -45 to El. -50, which corresponds to depths ranging from about 60 to 65 feet below Pastene Alley. Glacial Deposits - Unsorted silty sand, with cobbles and boulders, and where encountered was about 7- to 15-ft thickness. The elevation of the bottom of the glacial deposits is anticipated to be near El. -52 to El. -60, which corresponds to depths ranging from about 67 to 75 feet below Pastene Alley. Bedrock - Cambridge Argillite, locally fractured and weathered within the top 10 to 20 feet. The top of bedrock is estimated at about 70 ft to 75 ft below Pastene Alley.
3-57
3.8.5
Groundwater
Several groundwater observation wells (OWs) exist in the vicinity of the 327-337 Summer Street building, including wells installed in Pastene Alley by the Boston Wharf Company in 2002, and more recently in 2011 in advance of the start of construction at the adjacent parcel at 315 A Street. Water levels measured in these wells have generally ranged from about El. 7 to El. 10 BCB, which corresponds to depths of about 5 to 8 ft below the surface of Pastene Alley. Groundwater levels can be influenced by weather, precipitation, infiltration of surface water runoff, nearby construction activities, leakage into or out of utility pipes, building/highway underdrain systems, localized water recharging, and other factors. Future groundwater levels could differ from previously-observed levels.
3.8.6
The proposed building addition and any other features requiring foundations, will be supported on drilled-in, grouted, small-diameter piles or concrete caissons penetrating the fill and organic soils and deriving support in the natural soil strata. Foundation installation will be performed using low-noise, low-vibration, non-displacement methods. Only localized, minor excavations will be made for pile caps, elevator pits, utilities and similar shallow features, anticipated to be no deeper than about above El. 7 BCB.
3.8.7
Groundwater Protection
The Project site is located within the Groundwater Conservation Overlay District. Article 32 requires that projects meeting certain criteria employ mitigating measures to avoid adverse impacts to groundwater levels and, in some instances, to recharge stormwater to help sustain groundwater levels. The proposed Project is subject to Article 32 because the East Addition to 327-337 Summer Street will occupy more than 50 s.f. of lot area, and the Project may also constitute substantial rehabilitation as defined under Article 2A of the Zoning Code. During the construction, the new foundations will be installed using rotary drilling methods that sometimes introduce water into the ground rather than remove water, and excavations for new pile caps and grade beams are expected to be above groundwater levels. Some local dewatering may be required during construction to manage and remove surface water (precipitation) runoff, and to the extent possible, the Project would attempt to recharge/infiltrate that water into the ground on the site. New elevator pits extending below the lowest level floor slab will be waterproofed. No foundation drains or other features that could withdraw groundwater long term will be used. The proposed construction is not anticipated to adversely impact groundwater levels on or near the site, temporarily or permanently.
3-58
3.8.8
The proposed construction is not expected to impact foundations of adjacent or nearby structures. Only surficial, temporary excavations are required for installation of shallow building elements and utilities. New foundation installations will be performed in smalldiameter, non-displacement drilled holes under slurry, or within casing, in a manner that should not adversely impact any adjacent facilities.
3.8.9
Below-grade construction will be performed using low-impact, conventional methods and procedures. As noted above, new foundation installation will use non-displacement drilling methods under slurry, which will not result in significant noise or vibrations. No pile driving, blasting or other significant vibration or noise-generating activity is planned in connection with foundation construction. Short-term air quality impacts from fugitive dust may be created by the Project. Plans for controlling fugitive dust, including mechanical street sweeping, wetting portions of the site during periods of high wind, and careful removal of any excavated soils by covered trucks will be utilized as necessary.
3.8.10
Monitoring
The Proponent recognizes the importance for maintaining and monitoring groundwater levels, as well as performance of the construction. The Proponent is committed to monitoring water levels in observation wells in the vicinity of the site at regular intervals before and during project construction, and will provide the water level data to the Boston Groundwater Trust, if requested. Subject to property owner approvals, elevation reference points will be established on adjacent site buildings and other selected nearby facilities prior to construction and monitored during the work to confirm no impact from the construction activities. A geotechnical engineer or technician will be on site during the foundation and subsurface construction to confirm compliance of the work with the project plans and specifications, as well as monitor geotechnical instrumentation.
3.9
The Project will generate solid waste typical of other residential or office projects. Solid waste generated by the Project will be approximately 261.7 tons per year under the Residential Alternative or approximately 212.5 tons per year under the Office Alternative. It is assumed that residential space has a generation rate of 0.7 tons per bedroom per year,

Solid waste will include wastepaper, cardboard, glass, bottles, and food waste under both alternatives. A portion of the waste will be recycled as described below. The remainder of the waste will be compacted and removed by a waste hauler contracted by building management. With the exception of household hazardous wastes typical of residential, office and retail uses (for example, cleaning fluids and paint), the Project will not generate hazardous waste under either the Residential Alternative or the Office Alternative. Under both alternatives, all recycling, trash collection, and loading will occur on-site. Solid waste generated by the commercial office tenants and retail tenants will be collected internally by building management and temporarily held in separate trash rooms located in the basements of each building. Under the Residential Alternative, solid waste will be collected at 327-337 Summer Street in the basement via a trash chute that opens on each level of the building. Under the Office Alternative, solid waste will be collected at 327-337 Summer Street each workday evening by the buildings cleaning company. At 319 A Street, under either alternative, residents will take their trash down to a designated room in the basement, where it will be taken out daily by the management company. Recycling bins will be provided for tenants on each floor of each building, and one room in each building will be designated solely for recyclable materials. On a daily basis, the solid waste will be moved to the loading docks into two-yard containers for daily pick-up by a waste management company. A separate pick-up will occur for all recyclable materials.
3-60
Recycling
Recyclable materials under both alternatives are expected to include newspaper, cardboard, cans, and bottles. Recycling by building occupants will be encouraged and coordinated at both buildings, under either alternative. To encourage recycling, the Proponent will implement a recycling program throughout the Project. Under the Residential Alternative, 327-337 Summer Street will include space for recycling on each floor of each building. Under the Office Alternative, 327-337 Summer Street will have recyclables collected each workday evening by the buildings cleaning company. At 319 A Street, under either alternative, residents will take their recycling down to a designated room in the basement, where it will be removed daily by the management company. Loading/receiving areas will include space for the storage and pick-up of recyclable materials.
3.9.2
Solid waste generated by construction will consist primarily of demolition debris related to the selective interior demolition of the existing buildings and packaging and scrap materials (such as corrugated cardboard, glass, aluminum, scrap metal, and cable/wire) associated with new construction. Some of this construction-related waste will be recycled by waste disposal companies. Construction waste material from demolition and new construction will be recycled when possible (see below). Solid waste that cannot be recycled will be transported in covered trucks to an approved solid waste facility, per MassDEP's Regulations for Solid Waste Facilities, 310 CMR 16.00. This requirement will be specified in the disposal contract. If asbestos-containing materials are identified, they will be treated as a special waste in accordance with MassDEP guidelines and addressed and disposed of accordingly.
3.9.3
Hazardous Wastes
Analytical characterization of site soil and groundwater has not been conducted to date. Excess excavated material, if any, will be characterized for offsite transport prior to removing any material from the Project Site. Management of excavated soil and dewatering effluent will be in accordance with applicable local, state, and federal laws and regulations.

3.10
Noise
3.10.1 Introduction
This subsection describes a noise analysis conducted for the Project, including an estimate of future sound levels once the Project is in operation. The analysis was conducted to address potential impacts solely from the Project as it affects 327-337 Summer Street, under both the Residential Alternative and the Office Alternative. The improvements at 319 A Street are not anticipated to result in an increase in sound levels, and so were not analyzed. The scope of the noise analysis is consistent with BRA requirements for such studies. Baseline noise levels were measured in the vicinity of the Project and were compared to predicted noise levels based on reference sound data for likely mechanical equipment identified by the Proponent for the Project. These predicted noise levels were compared to the City of Boston Zoning District Noise Standards (City Noise Standards) and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) Noise Policy. The analysis indicates that predicted noise levels from Project-related mechanical equipment with appropriate noise mitigation will comply with the City Noise Standards, and will result in sound level increases that are below the limit established by the MassDEP Noise Policy.
3.10.2
Noise Terminology
There are several ways in which sound (noise) levels are measured and quantified. All of them use the logarithmic decibel (dB) scale. The following information defines the noise measurement terminology used in this analysis. The decibel scale is logarithmic to accommodate the wide range of sound intensities found in the environment. One property of the decibel scale is that the sound pressure levels of two separate sounds are not directly additive. For example, if a sound of 50 dB is added to another sound of 50 dB, the total is only a three-decibel increase (to 53 dB), not a doubling to 100 dB. Thus, every three dB change in sound levels represents a doubling or halving of sound energy. Related to this is that a change in sound levels of fewer than three dB is imperceptible to the human ear. Another property of decibels is that if one source of noise is 10 dB (or more) louder than another source, then the total sound level is simply the sound level of the higher source. For example, a source of sound at 60 dB plus another source of sound at 47 dB is 60 dB.
3-62
The sound-level meter used to measure noise is a standardized instrument. 10 It contains weighting networks to adjust the frequency response of the instrument to approximate that of the human ear under various circumstances. One network is the A-weighting network (there are also B- and C-weighting networks). The A-weighted scale (dBA) most closely approximates how the human ear responds to sound at various frequencies. Sounds are frequently reported as detected with the A-weighting network of the sound-level meter. A-weighted sound levels emphasize the middle frequency (i.e., middle pitchedaround 1,000 Hertz sounds), and de-emphasize lower and higher frequency sounds. Because the sounds in our environment vary with time, they cannot simply be described with a single number. Two methods are used for describing variable sounds. These are exceedance levels and the equivalent level, both of which are derived from a large number of moment-to-moment, A-weighted sound-level measurements. Exceedance levels are values from the cumulative amplitude distribution of all of the sound levels observed during a measurement period. Exceedance levels are designated Ln, where n can have a value of 0 to 100 percent. Several sound-level metrics that are commonly reported in community noise studies are described below. L90 is the sound level in dBA exceeded 90 percent of the time during the measurement period. The L90 is close to the lowest sound level observed. It is essentially the same as the residual sound level, which is the sound level observed when there are no obvious nearby intermittent noise sources. L50 is the median sound level, the sound level in dBA exceeded 50 percent of the time during the measurement period. L10 is the sound level in dBA exceeded only 10 percent of the time. It is close to the maximum level observed during the measurement period. The L10 is sometimes called the intrusive sound level because it is caused by occasional louder noises like those from passing motor vehicles. Lmax is the maximum instantaneous sound level observed over a given period. Leq, the equivalent level, is the level of a hypothetical steady sound that would have the same energy (i.e., the same time-averaged mean square sound pressure) as the actual fluctuating sound observed. The equivalent level is designated Leq and is also A-weighted. The equivalent level represents the time average of the fluctuating sound pressure, but because sound is represented on a logarithmic scale and the averaging is done with linear mean square sound pressure values, the Leq is mostly determined by occasional loud, intrusive noises.

American National Standard Specification for Sound Level Meters, ANSI S1.4-1983, published by the
Standards Secretariat of the Acoustical Society of America, Melville, NY.
3-63
By using various noise metrics it is possible to separate prevailing, steady sounds (the L90) from occasional, louder sounds (L10) in the noise environment or combined average levels (Leq). This analysis of sounds expected from the Project treats all noises as though they will be steady and continuous, and hence the L90 exceedance level was used. In the design of noise control treatments, it is essential to know something about the frequency spectrum of the noise of interest. Noise control treatments do not function like the human ear, so simple A-weighted levels are not useful for noise-control design. The spectra of noises are usually stated in terms of octave-band sound pressure levels, in dB, with the octave frequency bands being those established by a generally-accepted standard. To facilitate the noise-control design process, the estimates of noise levels in this analysis are also presented in terms of octave-band sound pressure levels.
3.10.3
The primary set of regulations relating to the potential increase in noise levels is the City Noise Standards (City of Boston Code Ordinances: Section 1626 Unreasonable Noise; and City of Boston Air Pollution Control Commission Regulations for the Control of Noise in the City of Boston). Results of the baseline ambient noise-level survey and the modeled noise levels were compared to the City Noise Standards. Separate regulations within the City Noise Standards provide criteria to control different types of noise. Regulation 2 is applicable to the effects of the proposed buildings, as completed, and was considered in the noise study for the Project. Table 3.10-1 includes the City Noise Standards. Additionally, MassDEP regulates community noise by its Noise Policy (DAQC policy 90001). The MassDEP Noise Policy limits source sound levels to a 10-dBA increase in the ambient measured noise level (L90) at the Project property line and at the nearest residences. The policy further prohibits pure tone conditionswhen any octave-band, centerfrequency sound pressure level exceeds that of the two adjacent center-frequency sound pressure levels by three decibels or more.

Existing Conditions
Baseline Noise Environment
An ambient noise-level survey was conducted to characterize the baseline acoustical environment in the vicinity of the Project site. Existing noise sources consisted of: vehicular traffic (including trucks) on the local roadways, pedestrian traffic, nearby mechanical equipment located in and on surrounding buildings, and the general din of the city. 3.10.4.2 Noise Measurement Locations
The selection of the sound-monitoring locations was based upon a review of the current land uses in the Project area. Four noise-monitoring locations were selected as representative in obtaining a sampling of the ambient baseline noise environment. The measurement locations are depicted in Figure 3.10-1 and are described below. ST-1 is at the corner of Congress Street and Thomson Place, north of the Project site. Noise sources at this location include vehicular and pedestrian traffic and mechanical noise from surrounding buildings. Also, there was construction activity at a nearby building and a mobile generator truck close by that were present during the day. ST-2 is along Summer Street, northwest of the Project site. Noise sources at this location include vehicular and pedestrian traffic, mechanical noise from surrounding buildings, and rustling sidewalk vegetation.
3-65
ST-3 is at the corner of A Street and Melcher Street, west of the Project site. Noise sources include vehicular traffic, air conditioning units at the existing Project site, and seagulls. ST-4 is along West Service Road, adjacent to the Project site to the east. Noise sources include vehicular and pedestrian traffic, mechanical noise from surrounding buildings, and seagulls. Daytime construction activities at a nearby building were also present. 3.10.4.3 Noise Measurement Methodology
Sound-level measurements were taken for approximately 20 minutes per location during the daytime (9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.) on May 23, 2012, and during nighttime hours (12:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m.) on May 24, 2012. 11 Since noise impacts are greatest at night when existing noise levels are lowest, the study was designed to measure community noise levels under conditions typical of a quiet period for the area. Daytime measurements were scheduled to exclude peak traffic conditions. The sound levels were measured at publicly-accessible locations at a height of approximately 1.5 meters above the ground. The measurements were made under low wind conditions, and roadway surfaces were dry. Wind speed measurements were made with a Davis Instruments TurboMeter electronic wind speed indicator, and temperature and humidity measurements were made using a General Tools digital psychrometer. Unofficial observations about meteorology, including wind speed, temperature, and humidity, as well as land use in the community were made solely to characterize the existing sound levels in the area and to estimate the noise sensitivity at properties near the proposed Project. 3.10.4.4 Measurement Equipment
A Norsonic model Nor140 Sound Level Analyzer, equipped with a Norsonic model 1209 Type 1 Preamplifier, a Norsonic model 40AN half-inch microphone, and a four-inch windscreen were used to collect broadband and octave band ambient sound pressure level data. The instrumentation meets the Type 1 Precision requirements set forth in American National Standards Institute (ANSI) S1.4 for acoustical measuring devices. The meter was tripod-mounted at a height of five feet above ground level (AGL). The meter has data logging capability and was programmed to log statistical data for each 20-minute sampling period for the following parameters: L10, L50, L90, Lmax, Lmin, and Leq.
11
The only exception was the nighttime measurement at ST-3, which was approximately 10 minutes.

All measurement equipment was calibrated in the field before and after the surveys with a LD CAL200 acoustical calibrator which meets the standards of IEC 942 Class 1L and ANSI S1.40-1984. The meters were calibrated and certified as accurate to standards set by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. These calibrations were conducted by an independent laboratory within the past 12 months. 3.10.4.5 Baseline Ambient Noise Levels
The existing ambient noise environment consists primarily of vehicular traffic on nearby roadways, building mechanical systems, and pedestrian activity. Baseline noise monitoring results are presented in Table 3.10-2, and summarized below. The daytime residual background (L90) measurements ranged from 58 to 76 dBA; The nighttime residual background (L90) measurements ranged from 51 to 59 dBA; The daytime equivalent level (Leq) measurements ranged from 71 to 82 dBA; and The nighttime equivalent level (Leq) measurements ranged from 66 to 67 dBA. A pure tone according to the MassDEP Noise Policy was present both during the day and at night at 63 Hz at Location ST-3. A pure tone was measured at 125 Hz during the day at Location ST-1, and a pure tone was measured at 63 Hz at Location ST-2 at night.
3.10.5
The Project includes the vertical and horizontal expansion of an existing building, 327-337 Summer Street. The primary sources of continuous sound exterior to the Project will consist of ventilation, cooling, and emergency power noise sources. The majority of the noise sources will be located at the rooftop, but an air intake will be located at the rear of the building at a height of approximately 15 feet AGL relative to Pastene Alley. All noise sources described in this subsection will be included in the Project regardless of whether the Residential Alternative or Office Alternative is built.

The major sources of sound exterior to the Project will be one 400-ton, closed-circuit cooler, one 4,500 cubic-feet-per-minute (CFM) energy-recovery ventilation unit, one 6,000 CFM kitchen exhaust fan, one make-up air unit, and one 180 kW standby generator. The proposed rooftop closed-circuit cooler for the building is an Evapco ESWA 400-ton unit. It will be located on the penthouse lower level at a height of 88 3 AGL (Pastene Alley). The Greenheck ERT-52H-30 energy-recovery unit with tempering will be located on the roof at a height of 110 7 AGL. The kitchen exhaust discharge will also be located on the roof. The kitchen exhaust will have a Greenheck SWB-222-75 backward, inclined centrifugal utility fan with a 6,000 CFM rating. The Greenheck DG-118-H30 make-up air unit will be located inside the building and will draw in air from a first floor-louvered opening approximately 15 AGL, facing Pastene Alley. A 7,500 CFM unit was assumed for this analysis. The 180 kW Kohler Power Systems standby generator will be located on the penthouse lower level at a height of 88 3 AGL. The exhaust stack for the generator will extend above the penthouse lower level by 10 feet. A tabular summary of the modeled mechanical equipment proposed for the Project is presented below in Table 3.10-3a. Manufacturer specifications indicating the sound power for each of piece of equipment -- except for the emergency generator -- are presented in Table 3.10-3-b. The sound power of the mechanical and exhaust components of the emergency generator were calculated using the sound-pressure levels provided at a reference distance. These values are presented in Table 3.10-3-b. The Project includes various noise-control measures that are necessary to achieve compliance with the applicable noise regulations. A duct silencer will be installed to reduce the sound levels associated with the make-up air unit. The emergency generator will be controlled using an exhaust silencer and an acoustical enclosure. To further limit impacts from the standby generator, its required periodic, routine testing will be conducted during daytime hours, when background sound levels are highest. A summary of the noise mitigation proposed for the Project is presented below in Table 3.10-3-c.
3-70
Notes: Sound power levels do not include mitigation. 1. Sound level assumed to be equal to dB level in 63 Hz band.
3.10.6
Modeling Methodology
The noise impacts associated with the Project were predicted at the nearest receptors using the Cadna/A noise calculation software developed by DataKustik GmbH. This software uses the ISO 9613-2 international standard for sound propagation (Acoustics - Attenuation of sound during propagation outdoors - Part 2: General method of calculation). The benefits of this software are a more refined set of computations due to the inclusion of topography, ground attenuation, multiple building reflections, drop-off with distance, and atmospheric absorption. The Cadna/A software allows for octave band calculation of noise from multiple noise sources, as well as computation of diffraction around building edges.
3-71
3.10.6.1
The analysis of sound levels at night considered all of the mechanical equipment without the emergency generators running, to simulate typical nighttime operating conditions at nearby receptors. Twelve modeling locations were included in the analysis. These modeling receptors, which correspond to nearby residential and industrial locations, are depicted in Figure 3.10-2. The predicted exterior Project-Only sound levels range from 21 to 49 dBA at nearby receptors. The range at residential modeling locations is 21 to 40 dBA. According to 2007 data available through the Massachusetts Office of Geographic Information (MassGIS), the immediate area surrounding the Project site is zoned industrial. The current land use in the area according to 2012 data from the Boston Redevelopment Authority (BRA) shows there are several residential uses within this industrial zone. Therefore, the Residential-Industrial limits have been applied to these locations. The remaining locations have been evaluated against the Industrial limits. Predicted sound levels from Project-related equipment are within these broadband and octave-band nighttime limits under the City Noise Standards at the modeling locations. This evaluation is presented in Table 3.10-4-a. In addition, the predicted future total sound levels (Project + Background) are below the MassDEP criteria of 10dBA over the quietest nighttime sound levels (the L90 level) at sensitive receptors with nighttime use. This evaluation is presented in Table 3.10-4-b. The Projects mechanical equipment is not expected to create any additional pure-tone conditions per the MassDEP Noise Policy when combined with existing middle of the night background sound levels at these locations as shown in Table 3.10-4-c. The pure tones shown in the table at 63 Hz are due to existing pure tones during the night at locations ST-2 and ST-3.

As noted above, the emergency generator will only operate during the day for brief, routine testing, when the background sound levels are high, or during an interruption of power from the electrical grid. A second analysis combined noise from the Projects mechanical equipment and its emergency generator to reflect worst-case conditions. The sound levels were calculated at the same receptors as in the nighttime analysis, and then were evaluated against daytime limits. Daytime ambient sound levels were incorporated where applicable. The predicted exterior Project-Only daytime sound levels range from 28 to 50 dBA at nearby receptors. The range at residential modeling locations is 32 to 47 dBA. Predicted sound levels from Project-related equipment are within the daytime broadband and octaveband limits under the City Noise Standards at each of the modeling locations. This evaluation is presented in Table 3.10-5-a. In addition, the predicted future total sound levels (Project + background) are below the MassDEP criteria of 10dBA over the daytime ambient sound levels (the L90 level). That evaluation is presented in Table 3.10-5-b. The Projects mechanical equipment is not expected to create any additional pure-tone conditions as defined under the MassDEP Noise Policy when combined with existing midday background sound levels. The predicted total sound levels per octave band are shown in Table 3.10-5-c. The pure tones shown in the table at 63 and 125 Hz are due to existing pure tones during the day at locations ST-1 and ST-3.

Conclusion
Baseline noise levels were measured in the vicinity of the Project during the day and at night. These levels were compared to modeled sound levels that were calculated based information provided by the manufacturers of the expected mechanical equipment. ProjectOnly and future sound levels (Project + Background) were compared to applicable limits. Predicted mechanical equipment noise levels from the Project at each receptor location, taking into account attenuation due to distance, structures, and noise-control measures, will be equal to or below the broadband requirements of City Noise Standards based on zoning and land-use maps available through MassGIS and the BRA, respectively. Because the residential uses are located in an industrial zone, the Residential-Industrial limits were evaluated for these locations. The remaining locations were evaluated against the Industrial limits. When the aforementioned mitigation efforts are included, the predicted sound levels from Project-related equipment are expected to remain below 55 dBA, within the nighttime residential-industrial zoning limits for the City of Boston at the nearest residential receptors. The results in Subection 3.10 indicate that the Project can operate without significant impact on the existing acoustical environment and will result in a noise experience similar to that of a typical urban setting. In addition, the Project will comply with the MassDEP Noise Policy.
3-77
At this time, the mechanical equipment and noise controls are conceptual in nature. During the final design phase of the Project, mechanical equipment and noise controls will be specified and designed to meet the applicable broadband limit and the corresponding octave-band limits of the City Noise Standards, as well as the MassDEP Noise Policy. Additional mitigation may include the selection of quieter mechanical units, and/or the addition of acoustical louvers, screening walls, mufflers, or equipment enclosures, as needed. 3.11 Construction Impacts In accordance with Article 80 of the Boston Zoning Code, a Construction Management Plan in compliance with the Citys Construction Management Program (CMP) will be submitted to the Boston Transportation Department once final plans are developed and the construction schedule is determined for the Project. The CMP will include detailed information on construction activities, specific construction mitigation measures, and construction materials, access and staging area plans to minimize impacts to abutters and the local community. The construction contractor will be required to comply with the details and conditions of the approved CMP.
3.11.1
Construction schedule
Construction of the Project is estimated to last approximately twelve months, with initial site work expected to begin in the second quarter of 2013. There will be a one-month site mobilization period. The City of Boston allows construction work from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. Construction outside of those hours requires a permit. Typical construction hours for the Project will be in compliance with the Citys regulations with no work anticipated on the weekends. In the event that weekend work is necessary, the Proponent will obtain required City approvals. The construction contractor will be responsible for coordinating construction activities during all phases of construction with City of Boston agencies to minimize potential scheduling and construction conflicts with other construction projects in the area.
3.11.2
Demolition
All three of the existing buildings at the Project site 327 Summer Street, 337 Summer Street and 319 A Street -- will be rehabilitated for adaptive reuse under the Project therefore, their exterior walls and structure will predominately remain. Some selected interior demolition of the existing buildings is anticipated. Demolition debris will be disposed of at a properly licensed solid waste disposal facility.
3-78
During demolition, provisions will be made for the use of water spray to control the generation of dust. If asbestos-containing materials are identified, they will be treated as a special waste in accordance with Massachusetts MassDEP guidelines, and addressed and disposed of accordingly. The contractor will contact the Building Materials Resource Center (BMRC) prior to demolition to discuss the potential for reusing building materials through the BMRCs program.
3.11.3
Construction truck access to the Project site will be outlined in the CMP to be filed with BTD in accordance with the Citys transportation maintenance plan requirements. The Proponent will ensure that staging areas are located to minimize impacts to pedestrian and vehicular flow. It may be necessary to temporarily occupy pedestrian walkways and parking lanes on Summer Street as well as on portions of West Service Road, which is under the jurisdiction of MassDOT, and Pastene Alley, a private way not open to public travel over which the Proponent holds various easements. Secure fencing, signage, and covered walkways may be employed to ensure the safety and efficiency of pedestrian and vehicular traffic flows. Sidewalk areas and walkways near construction activities will be well marked and lighted to protect pedestrians and ensure their safety. Pedestrian protection will be in place early in the construction process and will remain until construction completion. When necessary, police details will be provided to facilitate traffic flow. Construction procedures will be designed to meet OSHA safety standards for specific site construction activities.
3.11.4
During the construction period, temporary effects on ambient air quality adjacent to the construction site may occur. Some construction activities will generate fugitive dust which may result in localized increases in particulate levels. The Project does not involve extensive or deep excavations, therefore air quality impacts associated with fugitive dust are anticipated to be minimal. The Proponent will explore participation in the MassDEP Diesel Retrofit Program. The construction contract will provide for a number of strictly enforced measures to be used by contractors to reduce potential emissions and minimize impacts. These measures are expected to include the following: Installing a wheel wash at all site entrances and exits; Using wetting agents on area of exposed soil on a scheduled basis; Using covered trucks;
3011/PNF/327-337 Summer Street & 319 A Street 3-79 Environmental Protection Epsilon Associates, Inc.
Minimizing spoils on the construction site; Monitoring actual construction practices to ensure that unnecessary transfers and mechanical disturbances of loose materials are minimized; Minimizing storage of debris on-site; and Periodic street and sidewalk cleaning with water to minimize dust accumulations.

The Proponent is committed to mitigating noise impacts from the construction of the Project. Increased community sound levels, however, are an inherent consequence of construction activities. Construction work will comply with the requirements of the City of Boston noise ordinance. Every reasonable effort will be made to minimize the noise impact of construction activities. Mitigation measures are expected to include the following: Instituting a proactive program to ensure compliance with the City of Boston noise limitation policy; Using appropriate mufflers on equipment and ongoing maintenance of intake and exhaust mufflers; Muffling enclosures on continuously running equipment; such as air compressors and welding generators; Replacing specific construction operations and techniques with less noisy ones where feasible; Selecting the quietest of alternative items of equipment where feasible; Scheduling equipment operations to keep average noise levels low, to synchronize the noisiest operations with times of highest ambient levels, and to maintain relatively uniform noise levels; Turning off idling equipment; and Locating noisy equipment at locations that protect sensitive locations by shielding or distance.

3.11.6
Details of the overall construction schedule, working hours, number of construction workers, worker transportation and parking, number of construction vehicles, and routes will be addressed in detail in the CMP to be filed with BTD in accordance with the Citys transportation maintenance plan requirements. The number of workers required during the construction period will vary, depending upon the phase of construction. Because the construction workers will arrive and depart prior to peak traffic periods, the construction trips are not expected to impact local traffic conditions. To reduce vehicle trips to and from the construction site, workers will be strongly encouraged to use public transportation. Space on-site will be made available for workers supplies and tools so they do not have to be brought to the site each day. Specific delivery truck access routes will be established in consultation with the BTD through its approval of the CMP required for the Project. Construction contracts will include clauses restricting truck travel to primary roads. Enforcement of truck routes will be accomplished through clauses in the subcontractors agreements.
3.11.7
Protection of Utilities
Protection of Boston Water and Sewer Commission (BWSC) water, sewer, and drain lines will begin before commencement of site work. The Proponent will request that the locations of existing water, sewer, and drainage lines be marked by BWSC. Excavation in the area of existing water, sewer and drain lines will proceed with caution. Hand excavation will take place when excavation in the immediate area of pipe walls is required. BWSC will require additional protection measures if new pipes are to cross existing pipes. BWSC is currently proposing improvements to the public infrastructure in the Projects vicinity. This work would be completed under the Fort Point Channel Sewer Separation Project, for which construction began in Fall 2005. Impacts of the Project, as they are associated with the Fort Point Channel Sewer Separation Project, will be coordinated with BWSC in consultations regarding the proposed design. The BWSC will require the Proponent to submit a General Service Application and a site plan for review prior to construction. The site plan must include existing water mains, sanitary sewers, storm drains, and proposed service connections.
3.11.8
Vibration Control
All means and methods for performing work at the Project site will be evaluated for potential vibration impacts on the buildings slated for rehabilitation and nearby buildings and utilities.

3.11.9
The Proponent will advise its contractor to take an active role with regard to the reprocessing and recycling of construction waste. The disposal contract should include requirements to allow for the sufficient space for segregation, reprocessing, reuse and recycling of materials. For materials that cannot be recycled, solid waste will be transported in covered trucks to an approved solid waste facility, per MassDEPs Regulations for Solid Waste Facilities, 310 CMR 16.00. Construction will be conducted so that materials that may be recycled are segregated from those materials not recyclable to enable disposal at an approved solid waste facility. As discussed above, removal of any hazardous materials, lead, or asbestos will be undertaken in accordance with applicable regulations. Moreover, the contractor will contact the BMRC prior to the start of construction to discuss the potential for reusing building materials through the BMRCs program or donating materials to the BMRC.
3.11.10
A rodent examination certificate will be filed with the building permit application to the City. Rodent inspection and monitoring and treatment will be carried out during and at the completion of construction work for the proposed Project, in compliance with the Citys requirements. Rodent extermination prior to work start-up consists of treatment areas throughout the Project site. During the construction process, regular service visits will be made.
3.11.11
The proposed Project does not involve the disturbance of over one acre, therefore a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit is not required from the Environmental Protection Agency.
3.12
Sustainable Design
The Project will comply with the requirements of Article 37 of the Boston Zoning Code. The Proponent will incorporate many green features into the Project. The Project team will use the U.S. Green Building Councils (USGBC) Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) green building rating system to evaluate the success of the sustainable design measures. The architectural project manager will track the progress through the course of the Project and update the checklists. LEED checklists are provided at the end of this subsection to identify sustainability design goals for the both the Office and Residential alternatives for 327-337 Summer Street and Residential plans for 319 A Street. Highlights are outlined below, including details on implementation measures to the extent that they are defined at this stage of design. Selection of specific building systems and specifications will be determined in consideration
3-82
of the Projects sustainability goals. As goals are now being established, design solutions will be developed in an effort to achieve the pertinent LEED credits. The final design will strive to create a sustainable Project that will minimize environmental impacts, improve energy and water conservation, and optimize interior environmental quality. The LEED New Construction and Major Renovation rating system is used for the Residential schemes. The LEED Core and Shell rating system is used for the Office scheme. The rating system is separated into six major categories: Sustainable Sites, Water Efficiency, Energy and Atmosphere, Materials and Resources, Indoor Environmental Quality, and Innovation & Design Process. The following subsections discuss Projects sustainable features. The Project target is to achieve 40 LEED points and 1 Boston Green Building credit. Sustainable Sites 1. Construction Activity Pollution Prevention (Prerequisite)
A management plan will enforce measures to protect adjacent areas from pollution. There is no topsoil on site to be distributed, as the site boundaries are the extents of the buildings. However construction activity will be required to prevent sedimentation of storm sewer and polluting the air with dust and particulate matter. 2. Site Selection (Credit 1)
The Project site has previously been developed and is located in an urban area. The Project does not involve developing land that is prime farmland, at an elevation below the 100-year flood elevation, habitat for endangered species, near wetlands or water bodies, or parkland, so it does not violate established criteria. 3. Development Density (Credit 5)
The site is located in the Fort Port Channel district which has a mixed density of residential and business use. Many basic services are within a walking distance of one-half mile radius, including restaurants, cafes, the South Station complex, the Childrens Museum, courthouse, the Institute of Contemporary Art, hardware store, banks, restaurants and a fitness center. 4. Alternative Transportation: Public Transportation Access (Credits 4.1)
The building is one-half mile from South Station, which is a hub for commuter rail, Red and Silver line subway, local buses and regional Amtrak and bus lines. 5. Alternative Transportation: Bicycle Storage & Changing Rooms (Credit 4.2)
Secured bicycle storage and shower facilities will be provided in 327-337 Summer Street and 319 A Street.

1) Rooftop Addition The PDA Master Plan allows for two-story additions to each of the three buildings, but the proposed Project includes a rooftop addition only at the newly combined 327-337 Summer Street. The design of the Rooftop Addition is modern and minimalist, and is intended to be a quiet visual element atop the existing historic buildings. Along its northerly faade, the Rooftop Addition primarily provides a uniform glass treatment stepped back from the brick face of 327-337 Summer Street. The exception to the glazed faade is treatment of the core element (stairs and elevators) which are treated in horizontal, white-metal cladding. The existing building at 321 Summer Street abuts and is taller than 327 and 337 Summer Street. Consequently, the west end of the Rooftop Addition is not readily visible from the street level due to its proximity to existing party wall with 321 Summer Street. To take advantage of this condition, the west end of the Rooftop Addition will provide a hidden place for rooftop mechanical equipment The southerly faade of the Rooftop Addition, facing Pastene Alley (a private way that, adjacent to 327-337 Summer Street, is actually part of the neighboring lot at 315 A Street), is treated similarly to the Summer Street facades. It includes step backs from the face of the existing brick facades of 327-337 Summer Street. The easterly elevation of the Rooftop Addition is a similar combination of glass and the horizontal metal panels articulating the core area, similar to the faade treatment on Summer Street. After the Proponent studied options informally with BRA and FPCLDC staff, it was concluded that the simple glass Rooftop Addition should be setback on both of its two levels, from Summer Street, West Service Road and Pastene Alley alike. Earlier studies depicted various setbacks including a second-level setback from Summer Street. To calm the appearance of the Rooftop Addition, the faade is articulated with the second setback. The vertical mullion lines which support the glass curtain wall are drawn up from the pattern of windows in the existing buildings below, to establish a rhythm of bays and piers on the Rooftop Addition. The mullion lines are intended to be lighter on the second level of the addition to lighten the building visually. Consistent with guidelines for the Fort Point Landmark District, existing rooftop appurtenances at 327 and 337 Summer Street, such as old elevator overruns, chimneys and other extensions seen on the elevations, will remain. Elements that are internal and not seen from the street level will be removed, as they conflict with the program within the Rooftop Addition. The second level of the Rooftop Addition will have a split-level roof, which is intended to lower the roofline and so make the Rooftop Addition less visible from view on Summer Street within the Fort Point Channel Historic District.
3011/PNF/327-337 Summer Street & 319 A Street 4-2 Site Design and Urban Design Epsilon Associates, Inc.
2) East Addition The design of the East Addition is intended to improve the feasibility of adaptive reuse of 327 and 337 Summer Street for contemporary residential or office occupants. This horizontal addition will sit on a currently-undeveloped parcel of land located between the existing easterly face of 337 Summer Street and West Service Road, a public highway under the jurisdiction of MassDOT. In response to preliminary comments on the East Addition made by the FPCLDC, the new easterly faade could be designed as a new version of the existing easterly faade of 337 Summer Street. The existing faade is perceived to be an important character-defining element of the overall Fort Point Landmark District. Since it is infeasible to remove and rebuild the existing faade at the new property line, a reconstruction of the faade is proposed instead. To make it clear what is original or at least historic, and what has been added later, an approximately six-foot vertical strip of glass will separate the new masonry from the existing masonry. This glass strip creates a new universally-accessible entry to the retail and restaurant areas. As an alternative to the masonry design, the Proponent has also proposed a minimalist glass faade for the East Addition. In many areas, the public will be able see through the glass curtain wall to the historic brick faade beyond. This design direction is the preferred choice of the Proponent in order to differentiate historic elements from new construction, to tie the Rooftop Addition and the East Addition more closely together, and to create a signature architectural feature at the eastern boundary of the FPCLD, facing the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center. Under both the glazed and the masonry alternatives, the East Addition would extend thirtytwo (32) feet from the existing easterly face of 337 Summer Street. Likewise, both alternatives include adding a new stair connecting Summer Street with West Service Road, Pastene Alley and Congress Street. These latter three streets are all two-and-one-half stories below Summer Street. In keeping with historical precedent in the district, a portion of this metal stair will affixed to the exterior of the East Addition, based on the expression of fire escapes (which are being retained although they will not actually be reused). Finally, whether its faade is masonry or glass, at grade, the East Addition will provide accessible entries to the newly created retail, service, entertainment-restaurant-recreational space at 327-337 Summer Street, as well as a secondary entry to the main building lobby at grade with Summer Street. This secondary entry will create new access from Summer Street down to Pastene Alley and beyond to off-site parking at the Necco Street Parking Garage.
4-3
3) Universally-Accessible Entry At 319 A Street, a new entry providing universal access will be tucked below the existing loading dock on Pastene Alley, a private way closed to public travel. The existing loading dock is defunct. It consists of three bays along Pastene Alley that were originally designed to allow railroad cars to load flush against the side of the building. The design intent for the Universally-Accessible Entry is to recess the glass vestibule and stair enclosure so that the historic railcar loading dock is still readable from the buildings Pastene Alley faade. The rail and cobblestone treatment on the ground will remain in strategic (non accessible areas) to memorialize the historic condition. Tucked under the stair within the new addition will be enclosed bicycle parking spaces. After preliminary meetings with BRA staff and the FPCLDC, the glass faade of the new entry was redesigned to eliminate visible external metal mullions. The current, more minimalist treatment will make the vestibule as transparent as possible, and enable passersby to see through the lobby to the rear brick wall of the historic loading area. The westerly interior wall of the new infill addition will be clad in a combination of granite (at the base), and metal panels (above) where the stair is enclosed. This easterly rear wall of the Universally-Accessible Entry will be located directly opposite the private parking garage exit at 315 A Street, and automobiles from that building will actually pass under a portion of 319 A Street by virtue of a recorded easement. 4) Faade Restorations Approximately 100 years in age, the faades of the three buildings located at the Project site require restoration. The Faade Restorations will focus on masonry repair, window replacement, rehabilitation of selected windows, and repair and rehabilitation of the existing copper cornices. The intent is for replacement windows to be metal from the second level and above, at all buildings. (In fact, a portion of the windows at 327-337 Summer Street have already received metal replacement windows.) The story of 327-337 Summer Street at grade with Summer Street will have restored wooden windows where feasible. New wood mullion windows, matching the existing ones, will be installed where it is not feasible to restore existing windows. At the basement and sub-basement levels visible from Pastene Alley, the existing wooden windows will be restored, unless their existing condition warrants replacement, which will be in kind. To bring life back to the streets of the immediate neighborhood, the Faade Restorations include creating street-level access points to retail, service, entertainment-restaurantrecreational spaces along on Summer Street. Currently, the first story along Summer Street
4-4
is higher than sidewalk grade by approximately five (5) feet. To create viable retail space that meets accessibility requirements, a portion of the faade will be altered to allow for a grade level entry. Out of respect for 327 and 337 Summer Streets historical significance, the Project consciously limits the number of new access points and the areas of the faade that will be modified. To maximize the preservation of original building fabric, an existing loading dock bay, will be retained albeit with the modern garage door replaced with one matching the historic precedent. 5) Site Improvements Various minor site improvements are included in the Project, all of which contribute to the revitalization of the neighborhood. A new sidewalk will be constructed along Summer Street in front of 327-337 Summer Street, with the opportunity to create a more level surface by raising the curb height along the roadbed. Although Pastene Alley will not be opened formally to public travel, the public will continue to be able to use that alley by permission, and the new building entries along Pastene Alley will encourage this. Street lighting along Pastene Alley will also be provided, to improve visibility and safety at night.

5.1.1
The Project site consists of three buildings at 327 and 337 Summer Street and 319 A Street, and a vacant lot that will be merged with 327-337 Summer Street. The building at 327 Summer Street (identified in the Fort Point Channel Landmark District Commission Study Report (Report) as 327-333 Street) was constructed in 1911, and the building at 337 (identified as 337-347 Summer Street in the Report) was constructed in 1907. The buildings at 327 and 337 Summer Street were constructed for the Boston Wharf Company as warehouses for the Joseph Middlebury, Jr. Inc. that produced bakery and confectioners supplies. The building at 319 A Street was constructed in 1913 by the BWC for the Kistler Leather Co. 5.1.1.1 327 Summer Street
Classified as a warehouse building in the Report, 327 Summer Street, constructed by the BWC, is a Classical Revival style, load-bearing masonry warehouse building supported with wood posts and beams. Character-defining features of the district, as described in the Report, embodied by this building and its setting include the following: Streetscape and Setting, Density, Uniform Massing and Rooflines, Streets and Sidewalks, Architecture Style and Form, Window Openings and Fittings, and Building Materials. The Summer Street elevation is eight-bays wide and is constructed in a traditional tripartite design. The building features ground-floor commercial space along Summer Street that is articulated with tall plate-glass windows with glazed transoms set beneath a projecting cast stone beltcourse. The upper levels consist of evenly spaced pairs of double-hung sash with a top level separated by a wide brick and cast stone beltcourse. Primary brick piers extend up to high-relief corbelled brick brackets and an overhanging parapet. The red brick rear elevation, which faces Pastene Alley, extends below Summer Street by one-and-one-halfstories. Windows on the Summer Street elevation consist primarily of two-over-two, double-hung, wood windows. First-floor windows consist of large plate glass windows with glass transoms. The rear elevation contains one-over-one and two-over-two, double-hung wood windows. A pedestrian entrance and several loading dock doors are located at the ground level of the rear elevation. Overall, the building is in good condition with localized areas of masonry deterioration. All windows are in poor condition as a result of deferred maintenance. 5.1.1.2 337 Summer Street
337 Summer Street, constructed by the BWC, is a Classical Revival style, load-bearing masonry warehouse building supported with wood posts and beams. Character-defining features of the district, as described in the Report, embodied by this building and its setting
5-3
include the following: Streetscape and Setting, Density, Uniform Massing and Rooflines, Streets and Sidewalks, Architecture Style and Form, Window Openings and Fittings, and Building Materials. The Summer Street elevation is eight-bays wide and is constructed in a traditional tripartite design. The building features ground-floor commercial space along Summer Street that is articulated with tall plate-glass windows with glazed transoms set beneath a projecting caststone beltcourse. The upper levels consist of evenly spaced pairs of double-hung sash with a top level separated by a wide brick and cast-stone beltcourse. Primary brick piers extend up to high-relief corbelled brick brackets and an overhanging parapet. The red-brick secondary side elevation and the rear elevation, which faces Pastene Alley, extend below Summer Street by one-and-one-half-stories. Windows on the Summer Street elevation consist primarily of one-over-one, double-hung, wood windows. First-floor windows on the Summer Street elevation consist of large plate glass windows with glass transoms. The east elevation, which rises six stories, contains one-over-one and two-over-two windows on the upper floors. At the ground level, a large loading bay is centered on the elevation. This level also contains a loading bay and windows with large transoms above. The rear elevation contains one-over-one and twoover-two, double hung wood windows. A pedestrian entrance and several loading dock doors are located at the ground level of the rear elevation. Overall, the building is in good condition with localized areas of masonry deterioration. All windows are in poor condition as a result of deferred maintenance. 5.1.1.3 319 A Street
The building at 319 A Street was constructed in 1913 by the BWC for the Kistler Leather Co. The Kistler building was designed in the stylized Classical Revival style by Morton D. Safford, one of the two principal architects designing for the BWC at the turn of the century. The narrow brick building features a two-part form, rather than the tripartite form typical of the District, with the elevated first floor separated from the upper levels by a slightly projecting limestone beltcourse. The primary elevation is along A Street and features pairs of large window openings set between wide vertical piers extending up to low-relief corbelled brick brackets. The corbelled parapet wraps around the entire building and is set below a molded copper cornice. The two secondary elevations of the building are red brick, feature cast-stone sills and triple windows within most of the vertical bays. Along the buildings Pastene Alley elevation, the eastern end of the ground floor is set back where a one-and-one-half-story train bay is located. Windows primarily consist of pairs of four-over-four, double hung, wood windows on the three primary elevations. Small basement level two-pane windows are located at the sidewalk or at grade, and windows at the first floor also contain glazed transom. Several windows at the second floor level are one-over-one. Windows are set primarily in pairs or in sets of three separated by wood mullions. A pedestrian entrance is located at the
3011/PNF/327-337 Summer Street & 319 A Street 5-4 Historic and Archaeological Resources Epsilon Associates, Inc.
southern end of A Street, and a second point of access is located within the train bay on Pastene Alley. Overall, the building is in good condition with localized areas of masonry deterioration. All windows are in poor condition as a result of deferred maintenance.
5.1.2
Several contributing buildings in the proposed Landmark District and within the Fort Point Channel Historic District are located in the immediate vicinity of the Project site. Situated adjacent to 327 Summer Street, the BWC wool storehouse at 321 Summer Street was designed by J.M. and C.J. Buckley in 1911. The eight-story, Classical Revival style building is constructed of red brick and articulated with cast-stone detailing, including window sills and lintels, belt courses, decorative brackets, and parapet. The building features ground-floor storefronts and loading bays and upper level pairs of punched window openings set between tall red brick piers. The site of the former 319 A Street Rear (now 315 A Street) building is located immediately south of the 327 and 337 Summer Street and east of 319 A Street. The red-brick former warehouse building on this site was recently demolished, and a new 21-story residential building is being constructed on the site. Improvements to Pastene Alley will also be undertaken as part of the redevelopment of the 319 A Street Rear parcel. Situated across A Street from 319 A Street is the former A Street Deli at 324 Summer Street. Constructed by the Boston Wharf Company in 1945, the one-story, flat roof building is constructed of concrete block and is faced with a buff brick. Situated at the corner of the lot, the one-story building has a corner entrance flanked by large window openings along its A Street and Melcher Street elevations. Smaller punched window openings and a pedestrian door are located at the west end of the Melcher Street faade. [I think there are plans to alter this building on file with FPCLDC.] A vacant lot is located across from 337 Summer Street at 332 Summer Street. The lot is situated one-and-one-half stories below the Summer Street elevation. The rear, solid, redbrick elevation of 381 Congress Street is visible behind the vacant lot. The vacant lot is currently utilized for surface parking. Located across Summer Street is 330 Summer Street. The six-story, buff brick, Classical Revival style building features the distinct triparte faade design found in many Fort Point Channel buildings. The Summer Street elevation features a strong base with large plateglass windows and a side entrance along with a street level loading bay. The middle of the building rises four stories and is separated from the first and sixth floors by a slightly projecting limestone beltcourse. Above the sixth floor is a projecting corbelled cornice. This elevation features evenly spaced rectangular window openings with cast stone sills and lintels. The east elevation is a solid red-brick wall, while the rear, red-brick elevation features evenly spaced punched window openings fronting a narrow alley.

The Russia Wharf buildings, the Federal Reserve Building (constructed in 1973), the Stone and Webster Building (constructed in 1973), the C Street Area, and other buildings and structures within the Fort Point Channel Historic District, including the Congress Street Fire Station, are located within the vicinity of the Project site.
5.2
5.3
The Fort Point Channel Landmark District Commission considered 327 Summer Street, 337 Summer Street, and 319 A Street Rear to be significant to the District. These buildings are identified in Planned Development Area (PDA) No. 69 as parcel A3, which was identified in that document as a site with the potential to receive an addition or new construction that would result in buildings with heights up to 180 feet, and is also eligible to exceed that height (see Study Report Section 6, Planning Context). Within the context of the planning process that resulted in PDA No. 69, the Commission will consider the rooftop addition to 319 A Street Rear and/or new construction in place of 319 A Street Rear and/or Pastene Alley until the PDA Master Plan terminates and expires. The Commission will also consider rooftop additions identified for 327 and 337 Summer Street, subject to the criteria above for rooftop additions (10.4, Section B).
The Project includes a two-story rooftop addition at 327-337 Summer Street and a horizontal addition on the east side of the 337 Summer Street, and the PDA Master Plan remains effective. Accordingly, the Project has been designed to take into consideration the Design Guidelines and the PDA Master Plan, as well as existing site conditions and current market conditions. There are no changes proposed to the existing envelope of 319 A Street.

5.4.1
Rehabilitation
Consistent with sustainable design principles, the adaptive reuse of the existing buildings is intended to be a smart growth project. The Project will reuse the existing historic structures as part of mixed-use development in a dense urban environment close to public transportation. The rehabilitation of these structures will ensure the preservation of these Boston Wharf Company buildings and maintain and enhance this section of the Summer Street and A Street streetscapes. The existing faades of 327-337 Summer Street and 319 A Street are distinctive expressions of the particular history of the site and the surrounding historic district. Existing features of the buildings will be rehabilitated or repaired, as needed. All existing windows are in poor condition and will be replaced with historically-appropriate, simulated divided-light, aluminum replacement windows with a brick mold to match the existing and in a pane configuration to match the existing windows. At the first-floor (Summer Street) level of 327 and 337 Summer Street, existing plate-glass windows will be retained and rehabilitated. Existing openings on the Pastene Alley elevation at the ground-floor level will be modified to serve as doors and windows.
5.4.2
New construction associated with the Project is limited to a small lobby infill on the ground floor of 319 A Street within the former rail bay, a horizontal addition on the east side of 337 Summer Street and a new two-story rooftop addition on the 327 and 337 Summer Street buildings. The small addition of a lobby within the train loading bay at 319 A Street will provide the necessary access to the residential entrance, which must remain separate from the commercial entrance that will continue to front on A Street. This lobby will also provide the necessary fire egress from the new fire-rated stair to be constructed within the building to serve the residential units on the upper floors of the building. The new lobby will be constructed on glass and masonry to ensure the infill clearly reads as new but is compatible with the historic building. By taking advantage of the available space on the east side of the Summer Street buildings, the Project can create the necessary square footage to remain financially viable while minimizing the additional square footage that otherwise would have been required on the rooftops of the existing Summer Street buildings. A new addition will be located on the east side of 337 Summer Street. The new horizontal and rooftop additions on the Summer Street buildings will be largely constructed of glass curtain wall. This treatment allows the new construction to clearly read as new and be transparent to allow the existing masonry building to maintain its prominence of the site. The horizontal addition on the east side of 337 Summer Street will be visible from Summer Street and West Service Road when viewed from outside the Landmark District. Likewise, the two-story, rooftop addition will also be visible from outside the District. Sight-line
3011/PNF/327-337 Summer Street & 319 A Street 5-7 Historic and Archaeological Resources Epsilon Associates, Inc.
studies indicate the two-story addition will not be visible from within the District on Summer Street or within Pastene Alley. The rooftop addition will also be shielded from view when looking west on Summer Street due to the presence of the taller 321 Summer Street building. Two options for the architectural expression of the horizontal addition are being considered. One option is intended to be transparent in character by expressing the exterior walls in glass which allows the original exterior wall of the building to be seen through the glass walls. Another option constructs the addition in traditional brick and cast stone masonry. This latter option would be designed in a manner consistent with the traditional base, middle and top character of the historic building.
5.4.3
The sensitive design of the East Addition and Rooftop Addition together with the rehabilitation of the existing buildings will result in no adverse visual impacts to the Fort Point Channel Historic District and notable positive impacts, including activation of the pedestrian level of the buildings and rehabilitation of the building facades. Due to the small scale of the new construction and the density of the Fort Point Channel Historic District, the proposed new construction will be only minimally visible within the historic district. Alterations to the ground and first floors and the modification of existing window and door openings on the rear elevations will be undertaken in a manner sensitive to the character of the existing buildings. Similarly, the proposed horizontal addition and twostory rooftop addition provide the necessary square footage to make the Project viable while allowing the existing buildings to read as the primary structures on the site and the new construction as secondary elements designed to be sympathetic to the character of the historic buildings.
5.5
5-8
During the Winter Solstice, the area is already largely in shadow. New shadow is limited to that produced by the horizontal addition on the east side of the site which casts across Summer Street to the alley adjacent to 381 Congress Street. Due to the height of the buildings and their proximity to the street edge, this area of the Fort Point Channel is already largely in shadow. Net new shadows created by the project are largely limited to the Summer Street and West Service Road roadways and sidewalks. The addition of new shadow is unlikely to affect the architectural character of the historic district.

INFRASTRUCTURE SYSTEMS
Introduction and Agency Coordination
The following analysis describes the existing utility systems serving the Project area, discusses the Projects potential impacts on these utilities, and identifies mitigation measures to address potential impacts. Proposed connections to the Boston Water and Sewer Commissions water, sewer, and storm drain systems will be designed in conformance with BWSCs design standards, Sewer Use and Water Distribution System Regulations, and Requirements for Site Plans. The Proponent will submit a General Service Application and a Site Plan to BWSCs Engineering Services Division for review and approval. The Site Plan will show the location of water mains, sanitary sewers and storm drains that serve the Site, as well as the location of existing and proposed water, sewer, and storm-drain connections. In addition, a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) will be submitted specifying best management measures for protecting the BWSC systems during construction. The Proponent will work with utility companies serving the area, such as NSTAR and National Grid, as building design and permitting progress continues. Updated design information on the proposed utility connections will be made available to the BRA as this information becomes available. Sewer, water, storm drainage, electric, and other utilities are discussed below.
6.2
Sanitary Sewer
6.2.1 Existing Sewer Service
The local existing sewer system is owned and maintained by the Boston Water and Sewer Commission, which is part of the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (MWRA) collection and treatment system. Flows from BWSC sewers are ultimately discharged to MWRA interceptors for conveyance, treatment and disposal through the MWRA Deer Island Wastewater Treatment Plant. Existing sewers located in the vicinity of the Project site are shown on Figure 6-1. The sewer system includes a 10-inch sanitary sewer in Pastene Alley, a private way not open to public travel, which discharges westerly to an existing 24-inch combined sewer in A Street, a city street. The existing 24-inch combined sewer in A Street discharges flows in a southerly direction.
6.2.2
Under existing conditions, the buildings at the Site discharge sewage to the 10-inch gravity sewer located in Pastene Alley. The proposed Project will also discharge sewage to the Pastene Alley 10-inch sewer via existing or new sewer services subject to final design of the
3011/PNF/327-337 Summer Street & 319 A Street 6-1 Infrastructure Systems Epsilon Associates, Inc.
proposed connections and their approval by the BWSC. Depending on the selected development scenario for 327-337 Summer Street (i.e. Residential or Office Alternatives), the combined Project will generate an estimated 16,360 to 45,260 gallons per day (gpd) of sewage flow based on sewage estimates, as calculated in Table 6-1 below in accordance with MassDEP regulations 310 CMR 7.00. Table 6-1 Project Wastewater Flows

In accordance with MassDEP Regulation 314 CMR 7.05 (h), a Sewer Connection Permit from MassDEP is not required for 319 A Street, nor for 327-337 Summer Street building under either alternative. A Certificate of Compliance must be filed with MassDEP for operation of the service connection. The existing sewer system has ample capacity to convey the Projects estimated wastewater flows.
3011/PNF/327-337 Summer Street & 319 A Street 6-2 Infrastructure Systems Epsilon Associates, Inc.
6.2.3
New sewer connections to the existing collection system, if required, will be constructed in accordance with BWSC standards and regulations, and will be made watertight. Any existing sewer connections on site that are not to be used will be cut, made watertight (capped), and abandoned in accordance with applicable BWSC and City standards. Upon completion of the design stage, a Site Plan will be submitted to the BWSC for approval. A General Service Application will be submitted for construction of the planned services.
6.3
Water Service
6.3.1 Existing Water Service
Existing water services to the Site are provided by the BWSC, which is a member of the MWRA transmission system. There is a well-developed network of piping for water service throughout the Project area. Existing water mains located in the vicinity of the Project site are shown on Figure 6-2. Within the Site vicinity; there are both an existing 16-inch, low-service water main and an existing 12-inch, high-service water main located in A Street. An existing 8-inch service main, which originates from the 12-inch, high-service water main in A Street, extends easterly within Pastene Alley, a private way not open to public travel. This 8-inch main provides both domestic and fire service connections to 319 A Street There is also an existing 12-inch low-service water main located on the north side of Summer Street in front of the Site. BWSC records indicate that existing domestic and fire services for 327-337 Summer Street are connected to this 12-inch water main.
6.3.2
Any new water service for the Project will connect to the existing BWSC water system in the adjacent streets subject to final design of the proposed connections. Provided that the existing water services are in good operating condition and appropriately-sized, they may be re-used for the Project subject to BWSC approval. Depending on the selected use scenario of 327-337 Summer Street, the Project will require an estimated 18,000 to 49,785 gpd of water based upon the estimated average daily sewage flow and using a water consumption factor of 1.10.
6.3.3
The State Building Code, 780 CMR, requires the use of water-conserving plumbing fixtures. Water conservation measures such as low-flow toilets and restricted-flow faucets will help to reduce domestic water demand on the existing water distribution system. There is no landscaping planned for the Site, and so it will not present an irrigation demand.
6-4
The Proponent will arrange for water meters consistent with the BWSCs automatic meterreading system. The BWSC will provide meter transmission units (MTUs) at the Proponents expense. The Proponent will provide a telephone line and jack near the meters and outside meter-reading devices. The BWSC will connect the telephone lines and MTUs to the meters, and will program the MTUs. To prevent cross-connections from the sprinkler systems for the buildings or other regulated plumbing equipment, backflow preventers will be installed on appropriate plumbing fixtures. The designs for the devices used to prevent backflow into the potable water supply will be submitted to the BWSC Cross Connection Control Department for review and approval in accordance with BWSC regulations. The proposed water-supply systems and the fire-protection systems for the buildings will be carefully designed to meet the needs of the Project. The Project will comply with the standards of the State Plumbing Code, 248 CMR 10.000, as well as of the National Fire Protection Association. All required fittings for the mix of uses included in the Project will be installed in accordance with the applicable codes. Based on existing development in the general area of the Site, it is anticipated that the existing BWSC water system will not be adversely affected by the Project.
6.4
Stormwater from the Site currently discharges to the existing stormwater systems in the adjacent streets. Figure 6-1 above depicts the existing BWSC storm drainage systems in the Project area. There is an existing 12-inch drain in Pastene Alley. This drain flows westerly in Pastene Alley to an existing 30-inch drain in A Street. That drain in turn flows to a 48inch drain in Melcher Street which then turns southerly down Necco Street and ultimately to Fort Point Channel. There is also a 12-inch drain in Summer Street which connects to the 30-inch drain in A Street.
6.4.2
Since the existing Site consists entirely of impervious cover, the Project cannot create additional impervious areas. Consequently, post-development runoff conditions will be the same as existing conditions thereby maintaining current runoff rates to the BWSC stormdrain system.
6.4.3
In March 1997, the MassDEP adopted a Stormwater Management Policy to address non-point source pollution, which is administered locally pursuant to MGL Ch. 131, s. 40. The policy prescribes specific Stormwater Management Standards for development projects,
3011/PNF/327-337 Summer Street & 319 A Street 6-6 Infrastructure Systems Epsilon Associates, Inc.
including urban pollutant removal criteria for projects that may impact environmental resource areas. Compliance is achieved through the implementation of Best Management Practices (BMPs) in the stormwater management design. This Project is a redevelopment project under the policy and will comply with all of the applicable standards to the maximum extent practicable.
6.4.4
According to City of Boston Zoning maps, the Site is located within the citys Groundwater Conservation Overlay District, which is regulated under Article 32 of the Zoning Code. Please refer to Subsection 1.8.7 for a description of the Projects compliance.
6.4.5
Mitigation Measures
As noted in Subsection 6.4.2 above, the existing Site is entirely impervious, and Project will worsen that condition. However, the use of subsurface leaching and recharge devices will be reviewed for application specific to this Site during the design phase. These devices, generally, can provide limited recharge of surface runoff to subsurface soils in areas where soil and other conditions allow. Necessary investigations of relevant site constraints will be evaluated during the design process and, if appropriate, such devices will be incorporated into the Project. Prior to construction, erosion and sedimentation control measures will be installed on Site to prevent the discharge of sediments to the BWSCs stormwater drainage system. Finally, in conjunction with the Site Plan and General Service Application submitted to the BWSCs Engineering Services Division, the Proponent will submit a SWPPP identifying existing drainage patterns and areas to be used for storage or treatment of any contaminated soils, groundwater or stormwater.
6.5
NStar (formerly Boston Edison Company) provides electric service in the City of Boston. There are existing electric manholes and duct banks with service drops in A Street, Street and in Pastene Alley, nearby the Project site. The existing buildings currently have transformers and emergency generators located in Pastene Alley. The electrical, spaceheating and energy systems for the Project have not yet been designed. However, it is anticipated new transformers for the buildings will be located in accordance with all applicable codes and requirements.
6-7
6.5.2
Gas Service
National Grid (formerly Boston Gas Company) provides natural gas service in the City of Boston. There is an existing 12-inch gas main in A Street which connects to a 6-inch gas line in Pastene Alley. Gas service is anticipated to be available from either of these sources. The heating systems for the Project will not be determined until the final design stages of the Project.
6.5.3
The Proponent will install energy-efficient lighting, heating and cooling systems in the design for the building. Applicable standards and regulations will be complied with in regard to the use of energy conservation measures.

CAL3QHC
For the intersections studied, the CAL3QHC model was applied to calculate CO concentrations at sensitive receptor locations using emission rates derived in MOBILE6.2. The intersections queue links and free flow links were input to the model along with sensitive receptors at all locations nearby each intersection. The meteorological assumptions input into the model were a 1.0 meter per second wind speed, Pasquill-Gifford Class D stability combined with a mixing height of 1000 meters. For each direction, the full range of wind directions at 10 degree intervals was examined. In addition, a surface roughness (z0) of 321 cm was used for the intersections. Idle emission rates for queue links were based on 2.5 mph emission rates derived in MOBILE6.2 and converted from grams per mile to grams per hour. Emission rates for speeds of 10, 15, and 30 mph were used for right turn, left turn, and free flow links, respectively.
