BET was retained by Fidelity Investments to complete a façade ordinance survey of the entire building located at 7 Water Street in accordance with Boston City Ordinance 9-9.12. BET's engineer performed tests such as terra cotta and brick masonry elements were hammer sounded to check for loose material and cracks and chips were inspected to see to if there were any serious structural damage. The findings from the survey were silicone sealant was added at two locations to stabilize the masonry until repairs are made. Water stains were noted at the heads of two windows on the top (9th) floor. There were no unsafe conditions noted
