Recommendation

Recommend against issuance of permit for proposed internally illuminated projecting sign box. An internally–illuminated sign, in which the face of the sign glows, is not compatible with the character of the historic district in general, or with this Federal house, which is a designated DC Landmark historic building. A projecting sign box is not typical of the historic district and not appropriate to this contributing building.
