FHS Preservation To Do List – Top Priorities
- Repair cracked exterior knee walls bordering riverside basement slab. Est. $2000.
- Improve the side door entry way and portico roof.
- Provide a cobble stone border around the north end of flower bed to direct storm water away from the building.
- Have funds set aside to cover engineering fees and structural repairs if the City of Philadelphia replaces the seawall along Boathouse Row. Note: Sedgeley Club’s Sunporch posts are embedded in the present sea wall, and the lighthouse is located precariously close to the seawall.
- Continue to monitor and preserve the lighthouse: Professional Inspection, fund repairs as determined by inspection.
