Agenda Item 18 Capital 119848 relating to start conservation appropriate controls upon the University of Washington Engineering Annex, a landmark estimated by the Landmarks Preservation Board. Thank you, Madam Clerk. I move to pass Council Bill 119848. Is there a second? Tactically. It's been moved and seconded to pass the bill. Councilmember Strauss, you're the sponsor of the bill and are recognized in order to address this item. Thank you. Councilmember 119848 Control imposes controls on the U. Dub Engineering Annex. This legislation acknowledges the designation of the University of Washington's Engineering Annex as a historic landmark and imposes the controls. This engineering annex was built in 1909 as it as part of the Alaska Yukon Exposition Exposition and is being designated because of its association with both the exposition and the university's historic history. It has very distinctive visual characteristics, and something that's interesting to note is that the majority of the buildings built for the Alaska Yukon Pacific Exposition were built as temporary structures. So this was built as one of the few permanent structures and was the first boundary this side of the Mississippi that the public could view. This was built as a demonstration site where folks could see how the the foundry works and how you smelt metal into tools and other important things that they were using in Alaska. On the way for the gold rush. This controls the controls in this agreement apply only to the site and exterior of the building. Thank you.
