the building for any reasonable economic use.
Hi. Significance, The Director shall consider the! architectural and historical
significance of the structure individually. in relation to the-street, .and as a" part of the
district as a whole. These same considerations will be given to parts of the building.

affect the character ofthe overlay district, the neighboring buildings, and, inihe case
of partial demolition, the building itself.-Buildings that are noted as non-contributing
