Here a couple of shots of our front entrance. When it comes time to start fixing this place up, the entrances would be a good place to start. Why no one has put forth the effort to even wash the dirt off in the five years I've lived here is troubling. The trim next to the door needs to be replaced and then the whole entrance needs to be painted. The entrance to Butter's restaurant/store just north of the Endicott on Main Street would be an excellent color and look to copy.
Below is one of the side entrances and the surrounding areas. Someone please tell me who chose this color! Unfortunately this section of the building is separately owned, so getting the whole exterior of the building repainted is going to take some consultation and all parties working together to make happen. I understand that assistance is being sought from a historical preservation fund (possibly the NHPA?) by the owner (Peter Shapiro?) of this part of the building that includes Pachamama and The Green Martini.
Lets hope that he is successful.
I know that everyone concerned, from the business owners (and their patrons) to the Endicott residents, other business owners in the neighborhood, and Concord residents who want to see a rejuvenated downtown, want to see this building renovated.
