Dear Mr. Kovari:

In the last meeting of 17 November, the Commission of Fine Arts was pleased to review and approve the concept for the renovation and re-cladding of the existing embassy building and a new chancery building for the Republic of Hungary located at 3910 Shoemaker Street, NW (S.L. 06-029). In their support of the project, the members delegated further review to the staff.

Please submit the project with the permit application for final review when ready. As always, the Commission staff is available should you require further guidance.

Sincerely,

/s/Thomas Luebke, AIA
Secretary
