Electrical During a recent renovation, interior lights were added to The Arbor. The lights are obscured by the timbers and do not detract from the historic appearance of the structure. Lateral Force Resisting System (LFRS) The LFRS of The Arbor consists of the log roof structure and the masonry piers. The LFRS is in good condition. Although it likely does not meet current code requirements, it has performed well over the lifetime of the structure. Other Structural Features The joined pier bases create the backs to built-in rubble masonry benches that extend along the lengths of the curved ends. The benches are in good condition.
