After the Landmark Preservation Commission’s rejection of the proposal for an Arby’s restaurant in the landmarked interior space at 374 Fulton Street on Tuesday, we managed to infiltrate the inner sanctums of the LPC to obtain a photo of the rendering and plans that the commissioners were looking at when they made their decision. The rendering above shows where the franchisee proposed removing two of the mirrored arcades to make way for the ordering counter and neon signs. Check out a floorplan here.

  1. Heather,

    The scaffolding is probably there to support the lighted menu, so that it doesn’t have to be fastened to the landmarked wall. That’s a good idea, I suppose, but the fact that the designers chose to highlight this as a design element,instead of using supports that didn’t call attention to themselves, shows hoe incapable they are of building within a historic interior.
