THE MAIN BUILDING FRONTAGE IS ON CHESTNUT STREET AND FEATURES CONTEXTUAL MATERIALS AND EMPLOYS A TRANSITIONAL DESIGN STYLE. ACCESS TO THE UNDERGROUND PARKING IS VIA THE SECONDARY FRONTAGE ON LUDLOW STREET WHICH ALSO HOUSES THE LARGEST OF THE PARKLETTES AT APPROXIMATELY 865 SF.

VEGETATION AND SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS

DWARF FOUNTAIN GRASS

VARIEGATED LILY TURF

WILLOW OAK

Low maintenance level and full to partial sun exposure makes the lilyturf an ideal plant for public gardens

Wind resistant and drought tolerant, the willow oak is a great choice for beauty, easy maintenance and shade

An attractive grass with fluffy, dramatic plumes, fountain grass is ideal for small dry gardens

VEGETATED AREAS, INCLUDING PLANTER BOXES AND GREEN ROOF, FUNCTION AS NOT ONLY AESTHETIC ELEMENTS TO PROMOTE A SENSE OF COMMUNITY AROUND THE SITE, BUT ALSO SERVE AS A WAY TO REDUCE WATER RUNOFF THAT MAY ESCAPE PERVIOUS PAVING SURROUNDING THE SITE. WILLOW OAK, NATIVE TO THE EASTERN US, ACTS AS A BUFFER BETWEEN PUBLIC SEATING SPACES AND AREAS OF HIGH TRAFFIC, WHILE THRIVING IN BOTH SUN AND SHADE. GRO LOW FRAGRANT SUMAC AND LILY TURF ARE ALSO PROPOSED FOR THEIR LOW MAINTENANCE AND MINIMAL WATERING REQUIREMENTS. THE INCORPORATION OF THESE PLANTINGS AIM TO SOFTEN AND BLEND THE EDGES BETWEEN COMMUNITY AND RESIDENTIAL SPACES.

BUILDING MATERIALS EMPLOY A TRANSITIONAL APPROACH TO MID-RISE DESIGN. IN LIEU OF CURTAIN WALL GLASS AND METAL PANELS WHICH WOULD NOT ADDRESS THE EXISTING CONTEXT, A MIXTURE OF MATERIALS IS BEING PROPOSED SUCH AS COMPOSITE CLAPBOARD SIDING, THIN BRICK MASONRY “CHIMNEY” ELEMENTS, PAINTED TRIM ACCENTS, AND CORNICE BANDING. CARE IS TAKEN ALSO TO PROVIDE FOR SAFETY AND ILLUMINATION BY EMPLOYING RECESSED LIGHTING AND CAMERAS IN THE MODEST OVERHANGS ON BOTH THE CHESTNUT AND LUDLOW STREET FRONTAGES.

The use of brick on chimney towers gives a nod to historical heritage while providing texture and anchoring the new building to the ground

A combination of reveal panels and clapboard siding with larger exposure reference the more traditional clapboard style cladding with smaller enclosure. Darker variegated colors masking soiling on facade on busy thoroughfare.
