This preliminary assessment identifies and documents the exterior historic features of Gerlinger
Hall. The assessment, which was finalized by Campus Planning and Real Estate staff, was made
in consultation with the project manager for the upcoming Gerlinger Hall Restoration Project. A
preliminary historic window assessment also has been completed for Gerlinger Hall and should
be referred to for in-depth information and documentation of the windows. The surveyed areas
for this preliminary historic assessment include the building’s facades, gymnasium windows,
skylights, out buildings, and laundry room. Understanding the historic significance of
Gerlinger Hall is crucial to evaluating and preserving its valuable architectural features.
The assessed areas are shown on the Surveyed Areas and Ranking map (p. 5). Each area with
potential historic significance is assigned a ranking of primary, secondary, or tertiary. This
ranking is based on the level of historic significance (high, medium, or low) and level of
integrity, defined as the degree to which the key historic elements are evident today (excellent,
good, fair, or poor). Refer to Appendix A for a full description of the ranking methodology. |
