MEMORANDUM
May 10,2004
TO:
Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
FROM: Laura Carstens, Planning Services Manager~
SUBJECT: Save America's Treasures Grant for the Dubuque Shot Tower
INTRODUCTION
This memo transmits a resolution and an application to the National Park Service (NPS)
for a $300,000 Save America's Treasures grant for rehabilitation of the Dubuque Shot
Tower.
DISCUSSION
The City Council has budgeted $200,000 in the Vision Iowa project for rehabilitation of
the Shot Tower. The City has received a $100,000 Historic Sites Preservation grant
from the State Historical Society of Iowa for the rehabilitation of the Shot Tower. The
City's budgeted funds and the $100,000 state grant provide the $300,000 needed to
match the $300,000 Save America's Treasures grant.
The City submitted a similar grant application the last two years, but was not
successful. The National Park Service has encouraged us to resubmit the project for
this year's grant cycle.
These grants are available for preservation and conservation work on nationally
significant historic structures and sites. As one of only a few shot towers in the United
States and the only one west of the Mississippi River, we believe that the Dubuque
Shot Tower will compete well in this NPS program.
This federal grant will enable the City to rehab the Shot Tower, to build a non-
combustible stairway in the tower leading to the top of the tower, to replace the roof,
and to install protective barricades around the base of the tower. These improvements
will stabilize the current deterioration and enhance the tower's education and tourism
values.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend that the City Council authorize the submittal of a grant application for
$300,000 from the Save America's Treasures program for rehabilitation of the Dubuque
Shot Tower.

project's public benefit. One continuation sheet may be attached; however, applicants are strongly encouraged to provide
brief, concise narratives.
The Dubuque Shot Tower was constructed in 1856 to manufacture lead shot ammunition. It is one of only a few remaining
shot towers in the United States, and the only one west of the Mississippi River. It produced lead shot from 1856-58, and
then was closed. It was briefly refurbished for use during the fITSt year of the Civil War. The Standard Lumber Company
used the tower as a fire watchtower from the late 1880s until the company was destroyed in the 1911 lumberyard fIre. The
tower stood deserted in its post-fire ruin from 1911 to 1959. In 1960-61, the tower exterior was tuck-pointed, wooden
louvers were placed inside the windows and concrete sills replaced lost stone sills. The interior walls were coated with a
concrete mixture. A concrete encasement and limestone walls topped with a wrought iron fence were installed around the
base, presumably to protect the tower from the nearby rail cars and semi-tractor trailers. A hatch was cut in the pre-cast
concrete roof and a lightning protection system was installed.
In 2001, a structural assessment of the Shot Tower completed for the City of Dubuque by a local engineering finn noted
several areas of damage and deterioration. Vertical cracks in the brick below window openings, several vertical cracks, and
surface erosion of various limestone lintels are present. The original soft lime mortar is extensively exposed and the more
recent pointing mortar is thin and broken off in most areas. In some places the original mortar has eroded from behind the
pointing mortar. The Shot Tower also has a hazardous accumulation of bird droppings found in the interior space, and a
number of nest holes bored into the masonry. The areas of damage need to be treated appropriately before they progress any
further. The Shot Tower is threatened with continued deterioration if it is not rehabilitated.
The project is for rehabilitation of the Shot Tower. The proposed work includes stabilization of the tower structure, an
archeological survey in and around the tower, construction of a non-combustible interior stairway leading to the top of the
117- foot tower for improved maintenance access and increased stability, a new roof to prevent further deterioration, and
installation of protective barriers to safeguard the Shot Tower from vehicular damage from rail cars and semi-tractor trailers
that serve the adjacent industrial use.

c)-
d)-
Listed in the National Register of Historic Places for national significance. (25 points)
Please note that properties can be listed in the National Register for significance at the local, state, or
national level; most properties are not listed for national significance. The level of significance can be
found in Section 3 - State/Federal Agency Certification of the property's approved National Register
nomination. Contact your State Historic Preservation Office if you have questions about the level of
significance or do not have a copy of the approved nomination. If the property is listed for local or state
significance, see item "dO below.
Determined eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places for national significance
by the Keeper of the National Register. (25 points)
Documentation of this determination by the Keeper must be attached to the application. If funded, the
grantee must submit a National Register nomination to the State Historic Preservation Office within 12
months. Nomination preparation costs may be included in Application Section 9, Project Budget.
Evaluated as eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places for national significance
by the State Historic Preservation Office. (up to 20 points)
The State Historic Preservation Office evaluates a property according to criteria specified in 36 CFR 60 -
National Register of Historic Places and may determine that the property is eligible for listing for
significance at the local, state or national level. The property must be determined to be eligible for listing
for national significance in order to be eligible for a Save America's Treasures grant. A letter from the
State Historic Preservation Office clearly stating that the building has been evaluated and is
considered to be eligible for listing for national significance and explaining the reasons why it is
nationally significant must be attached to the application. In order to meet this criterion, the letter
must state that the building is considered to be eligible for listing for national significance and
explain the reasons for that determination. Letters sent separately will not be considered part of
the application. If funded, the grantee must submit a National Register nomination, or an amended
nomination supporting the national significance if the property is currently listed for state or local

be included in Application Section 9, Project Budget.
e) Explain the reasons why the property is nationally significant. One continuation sheet may be attached; however,
applicants are strongly encouraged to provide brief, concise narratives.
The Dubuque Shot Tower is nationally significant under Criteria A and C because it is a rare and unique surviving example
of the shot tower property type. It is the only tapered square obelisk shot tower example. It is the only surviving mid-I 9'"
Century example of its type and the only surviving shot tower that represents lead shot production technology of its time.
On February 14, 2003, the State National Register Nominations Review Committee of the State Historical Society of Iowa
approved the City of Dubuque's revised, expanded, and updated National Register nomination for listing the Dubuque Shot
Tower with national significance. Section 8, Statement of Significance of the property's National Register nomination
fonD is attached. The accepted nomination has been forwarded to the National Park Service.
The City of Dubuque also is in the process of nominating the Dubuque Shot Tower for designation as a National Historic
Landmark.

8. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Additional sheets may be attached; however, applicants are strongly encouraged to provide brief, concise
narratives.
A. WHAT IS THE THREAT TO THE HISTORIC PROPERTY OR COLLECTION? (25 POINTS)
Describe the current physical condition and the source(s), nature, extent, and severity of the threat, danger, or damage to
the historic property or collection.
The 2001 structural assessment of the Shot Tower was conducted by a local engineering firm using a crane service to
closely inspect each face of the tower for the full height. Several areas of damage were noted.
The most significant items of distress in the basic building materials include vertical cracks in the brick below window
openings at isolated locations and several vertical cracks and surface erosion of various limestone lintels. The original soft
lime mortar is extensively exposed and the harder, more brittle, pointing mortar that was applied in 1960-61 is quite thin
and already broken off in most areas. Significant areas were observed where the original mortar has eroded ITom behind
the pointing mortar, leaving a thin shell of pointing mortar suspended in ITont of the wall surface. It does not appear that
the original mortar was ground out before applying the pointing mortar, so very little surface contact between the masonry
units and the pointing mortar is provided. It also appears that a relatively brittle mix was used for the pointing mortar that
did not provide sufficient flexibility. The surface of the old mortar can be scraped away easily with a pocketlrnife to a depth
of>', to % inches.
The replacement of the concrete windowsills is needed due to the long-term damage that this has caused by allowing water
to pass into the masonry below. Additional joint and masonry unit damage is noted in these areas. The tower also has
suffered damage ITom birds, with a significant accumulation of bird droppings found in the interior space, and a number of
nest holes bored into the masonry. The accumulation of bird droppings constitutes a hazard that must be mitigated for
public health and stabilization of the tower.
Construction of a non-combustible interior stairway leading to the top of the 117-foot tower for is needed for improved
maintenance access and increased stability. The Shot Tower suffered ITom a fire in 1911 that destroyed the original
wooden stairway, leaving no ready means to access the tower interior for maintenance.
A new rubber-membrane roof is needed to replace the pre-cast concrete cap installed over 40 years ago. This new roof will
prevent further deterioration of the Shot Tower due to infiltration by water and birds.
In 1991, an empty rail car jumped the tracks of the rail siding west of the Shot Tower, and ran into the tower. This resulted
in a hole through the 33-inch thick limestone wall at the base of the tower. This damage was repaired by the City of
Dubuque. Installation of protective barriers is included in the project costs to safegnard the Shot Tower ITom further
vehicular damage ITom rail cars and semi-tractor trailers that serve the adjacent industrial use.

8. PROJECT DESCRIPTION (CONTINUED)
Additional sheets may be attached; however, applicants are strongly encouraged to provide brief, concise
narratives.
B. WHAT WORK WILL BE SUPPORTED BY THIS GRANT AND HOW WILL IT MITIGATE THE THREAT TO THE HISTORIC
PROPERTY OR COLLECTION? (25 POINTS)
The following points must be addressed:
Describe the key project activities and products to be supported by this grant and the non-Federal match.
Describe how the work will significantly diminish or eliminate the threat, danger, or damage to the historic property or
collection.
Explain any pre-project planning or research, such as Historic Structures Reports or Collection Condition
Assessments, on which project decisions are based.
List the key personnel undertaking the work and briefly describe their qualifications. If personnel have not been
selected, briefly describe the qualifications you will require. (Please note: Do not send vitae. Consultants must be
selected competitively.)
Describe how the project will have a clear public benefit.
Explain how your organization will ensure continued maintenance of the historic property or collection in the context of
your organization-wide preservation or conservation activities.
On a separate sheet, provide a timeline for project completion, including each major activity with a schedule for its
completion and its cost. Projects must be completed within the grant period, which is generally 2 to 3 years.
The Dubuque Shot Tower needs to be treated appropriately at this time to prevent further deterioration. The general scope
of work includes the most long-range cost effective solutions to correct these conditions. The intent of this scope of work is
to restore the integrity of the tower and to provide amenities that make the tower accessible to the public. The work will be
perfonned by qualified, licensed, and bonded contractors who are experienced in preservation of historic properties in
accordance with federal standards, under the supervision of professional registered engineers, hazardous materials
consultants, and archeologists who also are experienced in preservation work and restoration of historic buildings.
The major work items that will significantly diminish or eliminate the above-described threat to the Shot Tower include:
Remove bird droppings from the interior; Install tie rods to address cracked brick masonry; Conduct archeological
investigation in and around the Tower, and interpret findings; Remove insect screens and louvers from window openings;
Install new limestone sills, galvanized perimeter angles and bird screen at all openings; Tuck-point the interior and exterior;
Replace damaged brick and limestone units; Remove loose materials from the interior walls; Install a non-combustible stair
inside the Tower extending to the rooftop for improved maintenance and instability; Replace existing pre-cast concrete cap
with a new wood framed top floor and membrane roof to stabilize the tower and prevent deterioration; Rehabilitate existing
limestone site walls around the Tower; and Install protective barricades to safeguard the Tower from adjacent rail and semi
activity.
