McMillan Historic Preservation Application Drops

The Historic Preservation Review Board application for development at the McMillan Sand Filtration Plant replicates a lot of the information in the draft of the one that'll go to the Zoning Commission (http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/housingcomplex/2011/09/18/mcmillan-plan-almost-ready-to-go/) — there's no more detail on building architecture, just massing sketches—but does have a bit more information about the old stuff that's supposed to stay even as new buildings go up around it.

A citizens group (http://www.facebook.com/groups/181355693594/) organizing under the slogan "Development Without Demolition" (sound familiar?) has been reinvigorated, and will likely be a presence when the plan goes before the HPRB, which looks like it'll happen before Zoning.

Full application after the jump.
