Historic Cannery Warehouse Patio Improvements

The existing patio dining area, located within the Del Monte Courtyard along the east side of the Argonaut Hotel (Historic Cannery Warehouse) between Jefferson and Beach Streets is a 1,249 square foot, 46-seat patio dining facility for the Argonaut Hotel's 1,995 square foot restaurant. This project involves the enlargement and enhancement to the patio area as follows:

• Increase in area from 1,249 square feet to 1,718 square feet
• Increase of seating area from 46 to 70 seats
• Removal of existing concrete curb and railing as required to enlarge the deck area
• Installation of new concrete curb and railing to define the new patio expansion area
• Removal of the existing concrete patio as necessary to install new gas lines to new patio heaters, expanded patio area, and new power and speaker lines
• Replacement of existing concrete with new concrete as required where concrete is removed for installation of the new gas lines, electrical lines, and speaker lines
• Removal of existing patio area to install four new trees that will match the existing trees already located in Del Monte Courtyard
• Installation of new umbrellas over the new and existing patio area
• Installation of new wind screen with logo on the existing and new patio railing
• Installation of new table, chairs, and wait station

This project will have minimal impact on the historic fabric of the Warehouse building. The proposed changes will only affect non-historic concrete paving.

A plans set is available for review. Note: it is a large file (3.6mb) and may take some time to download.
