The design emphasizes the pedestrian realm with plazas, features, street furniture, and landscaping. The public space is further animated by multiple patios and rest areas.
-
Continuous storefronts are lined with promenades set back from the property line, and running parallel to city sidewalks. This design creates large green strips and landscaped areas, helping to create a walkable, attractive environment.
-
Buildings are uniform in height, and all exhibit a low profile and human scale with an overall aesthetic that is both warm and contemporary.
-
The site exhibits a consistent design vocabulary: individual storefronts are distinguished through articulation and a variety of complementary materials. Uniform glazing and masonry and timber accents tie the site together.
