| 1281 | Scott Addition |
|
| Demo plans, floor plans, roofing plans, elevations, sections and details, site plan Roc's Comments: There was a famous old Bar harbor mansion along the shore path that became a white elephant in the 60's and was cut in half. Each half was sold as a separate building. The Scotts, a wonderful older couple from Philadelphia (?) asked us to renovate their half into a more livable summer home. Jeffry Wright and I took on the task with enthusiasm. The carpentry contractors Bond Builders had previously added a colonial addition to the Frenchman Bay side of the half structure that was perfectly functional and paid for. We did not want to intrude on some of the fabulous Queen Ann/ shingle style remaining structure so we created a very complicated addition that appeared consistent with the Queen Ann appearance of the Western or entrance side of the building and consistent with the "colonial" appearance of the Frenchman's Bay Eastern facade. I think it worked and the Scotts were delighted. |

| 1297 | Renovations to the Walsh Residence |
|
| Sketch, floor plans Roc's Comments: Tom Walsh was a self made man who grew up in Bangor and eventually became an extremely successful Hotel developer with projects all over the country. He was disliked by the local Bar Harbor establishment because he bought the defunct Bar Harbor club, renovated it and built a new motel (not the most attractive thing but better than its predecessor). He hired me to help him gain planning board permission, design additions that were not built on the Thorndike Residence (a good thing) and prepare an accessibility report for the state describing every ADA function available in his new motel. I do not understand why local citizens dislike his efforts. He was a nice man and asked only for work done to the highest standards and I liked him. |

Included a bridge designed by Waite Akins engineer from Old Town. |
