FINAL
REPORT to the
CHICAGO PLAN COMMISSION from the
DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT AUGUST 20, 2015
FOR APPROVAL: PROPOSED BUSINESS PLANNED DEVELOPMENT
APPLICANT: 130 NORTH FRANKLIN DEVELOPMENT, LLC
LOCATION: 130 NORTH FRANKLIN STREET
Pursuant to the provisions of the Chicago Zoning Ordinance, Title 17 of the Municipal Code of Chicago, the Department of Planning and Development hereby submits this report and recommendation regarding a proposed Business Planned Development for your review and recommendation to the Chicago City Council. The application for the amendment to the Zoning Ordinance was introduced into the City Council on May 20, 2015. Proper legal notice of the public hearing on the application was published in the Chicaqo Sun-Times on August 5, 2015. The Applicant was separately notified of this hearing.
The Applicant, 130 North Franklin Development, LLC, is seeking approval for a,Business Planned Development on property currently zoned pC-16 (Downtown Core District). The Applicant intends to construct a new approximately 54-story office building with ground floor commercial space and parking on an approximately 65,382 square foot site. Integral to the project is the creation of an approximately 15,000 square foot ground level public plaza that will include significant landscaping, seating and lighting. The Applicant is proposing to maintain the property's existing underlying zoning prior to establishing this proposed Business Planned Development. This development is being submitted by the Applicant as a mandatory Planned Development, pursuant to Section 17-8-0512-B, which states that Planned Development review and approval is required when the proposal involves a non-residential building exceeding 600' in height in a DC-16 (Downtown Core District) zoning district.
BACKGROUND
The site is owned by entities owned and controlled by Henry Crown and Company. Henry Crown and Company has given its consent to the filing of this Application by the Applicant. The site formerly was improved with the Butter and Egg building. It is currently partially improved with a parking lot.
SITE AND AREA DESCRIPTION
The subject property is located at 130 North Franklin Street in the western portion ofthe Loop Community Area of Chicago. The subject property is currently zoned DC-16 (Downtown Core District) and includes a total of 65,382 square feet of net site area. It is bounded by North Franklin Street on the east, a public alley and private property on the west, West Randolph Street on the north and West Washington Street on the south. An
|1010|
FINAL
additional public alley exists on the west side ofthe site too, up to 29' above the Chicago City Datum.
The immediate area surrounding the site is also generally zoned DC-16 (Downtown Core District) as well as various planned developments. This immediate area includes a variety of generally commercial uses, including large scale office towers as well restaurants and other retail uses at ground Jevel in a variety of building types. A few residential buildings exist in this broader area as well.
The site is extremely well served by a variety of existing public transit resources as well as planned ones. The Chicago Transit Authority's (CTA) Washington/Wells Station, serving the Brown, Orange, Purple and Pink Lines is located approximately 500' to the southeast. Metra's Ogilve Transportation Center is located just a few blocks west of the subject site. Chicago Union Station is located slightly further southwest ofthe site, serving additional Metra patrons as well as Amtrak patrons. Existing CTA bus service in the area includes the following busses: Sedgwick (#37); Madison (#20); Blue Island (#60); Milwaukee (#56); and, Streeterville/Taylor (#157). In addition, the City of Chicago with the CTA is currently constructing the Loop Link Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system which will provide dedicated bus service through the heart of the Loop. The BRT route includes West Washington Street at the subject site as the westbound leg of the system. Finally, the subject site is well served by existing bike infrastructure and will benefit from additional planned bike infrastructure. t
The site is n'ot located within the Lake Michigan and Chicago Lakefront Protection District or a Chicago Landmark District. The property is located within the LaSalle Central Tax Increment Financing District.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project consists of the construction of an approximately 54-story commercial building that will include office space (approximately 1,300,000 square feet), ground floor commercial space (14,000 square feet), parking (190 spaces maximum) and related uses. The project is planned to include a significant outdoor public plaza and widened sidewalk area. Construction is anticipated to commence in the Spring of 2016 and be completed by 2018.
DESIGN
The proposed building essentially consists of an approximately 54-story structure generally in the center of the site surrounded by a four-story base located to the north, south and west. The total height ofthe structure is proposed to be approximately 730'. The first floor includes approximately 14,000 square feet of ground floor commercial space on both the northern and southern areas of the site as well as building lobby space. Floors two thru four include parking and some mechanical space. Floor five includes office space and access to the Upper Plaza level, which is an approximately 20,000 square foot private outdoor plaza with significant landscaping and seating. Floors six thru 53 will include office
|1010|
FINAL
space. As will be detailed below, the proposed building mass is setback significantly from the street as the project includes a significant outdoor public plaza at grade level.
The materials proposed for the project include an all glass curtainwall system on all sides ofthe building, including the tower portion and four-story base. The curtain-wall system is tapered in spots up the tower giving the building a sleek look. At the base of the tower, along the east elevation, -three-story columns will help define the entrance and integrate the building into the public plaza.
The material callouts on the exhibits highlight the proposed materials on all ofthe building's elevations.
LANDSCAPING
The project will fully comply with the Chicago Landscape Ordinance while creating a public outdoor plaza that extends the entire block between West Randolph Street and West Washington Street, along North Franklin Street. The project will contain an approximate total of 46 canopy trees, 11 understory trees, ground-level landscaping, 349 linear feet of public seating and will be approximately 15,000 square feet in total size. The surface of the plaza will contain various stone materials in an angled pattern oriented towards the building.
ACCESS/CIRCULATION
Vehicular access to the building, both in and out, will be achieved via West Washington Street, which is one-way westbound. An additional exit-only is planned along West Randolph Street. A maximum of 190 parking spaces will be allowed on site as part ofthe project. Loading will be performed entirely on the west side of the building via the public alley and will incorporate space for four berths in an enclosed loading dock space. Each berth will measure 10' by 25'.
As both West Washington Street and West Randolph Streets are Mobility Streets under the Chicago Zoning Ordinance, a minimum of 14' sidewalk width will be maintained on both streets. The vast majority of the sidewalk widths along West Washington Street and West Randolph Street will be far larger than 14', as they will blend in with the public plaza. The Franklin Street sidewalk will effectively be widened along the entire block as it too blends in with the plaza.
SUSTAINABILITY
The Applicant will provide approximately 11,080 square feet of green roof and will achieve LEED Silver certification. The project will also comply with the Storm Water Management Ordinance, implementing best practices in all storm water management. The Green Roof Plan included as an exhibit to this report highlights the locations ofthe green roofs on the fifth floor of the building.
|1010|
FINAL
BULK/USE/DENSITY
The proposed maximum Floor Area Ratio (FAR) for this Business Planned Development will be approximately 20.5. This includes the base FAR for the underlying zoning of DC-16 (Downtown Core District) of 16.0 plus approximately 2.5 additional FAR that the Applicant is seeking via the Plaza Bonus and approximately 1.9 additional FAR under the Sidewalk-Widening Bonus, under the Chicago Zoning Ordinance. The attached bulk table as well as the FAR Bonus Plan Exhibit details the zoning controls and calculation of the bonuses proposed for the project.
The following uses are proposed to be allowed under this planned development: office, retail sales, eating and drinking establishments, parking and accessory uses.
RECOMMENDATION
The Department of Planning and Development has reviewed the project materials submitted by the Applicant and compared this proposal to existing development in the community. The area around this project consists generally of DC-16 (Downtown Core District) zoning districts and similar planned developments and the proposal represents an opportunity to construct a compatible commercial/office development project along North Franklin Street in Chicago's Loop Community Area.
Based on that analysis, the Department of Planning and Development has concluded that <¦ this proposal is appropriate for this site and supports this development for the following reasons:
1. The project meets the purpose and criteria set forth in Chapter 17-8 of the Zoning Ordinance and its adoption would not have any adverse impact on the public's health, safety or welfare. Specifically, this project meets the following provisions of Chapter 17-8:
Promotes pedestrian interest, safety and comfort by creating safe and attractive walkways and pedestrian routes and by emphasizing building entries through architecture and design (per 17-8-0905-A), as evidenced by the project's incorporation of widened sidewalks and the significant building entrance;
Upper-story setbacks should be used to reduce the apparent mass and bulk of tall buildings (per 17-8-0907-B) as evidenced by the proposal's incorporation of a significant setback on both West Washington Street and West Randolph Street at the fifth floor to accommodate the tower;
Reinforces desirable urban features found within the surrounding area, such as siting patterns, massing arrangements and streetscape characteristics (per 17-8-0906-A), as evidenced by the project's height, mass and site design blending in with the surrounding office buildings in the Loop community area;

FINAL
Provides adequate, inviting, usable and accessible open space for workers, visitors and residents, provides a sense of place associated with the development and provides substantial landscaping of the open areas (per 17-8-0909-A), as evidenced by the incorporation of a 15,000 square foot street level public plaza on the site;
Conserves non-renewable energy and scarce materials (per 17-8-0908-A) as evidenced by the project's goal of LEED Silver certification;
All sides and areas of the buildings that are visible to the public are treated with materials, finishes and architectural details that are of high-quality and appropriate for use on primary street-facing fagade (17-8-0907-A-4), as evidenced through the material callouts in this report and on the elevations.
The site lies within the boundaries of the Central Area Action Plan, which was adopted by the Chicago Plan Commission on August 20, 2009. The project is completely consistent with the Central Loop Sub-district of the Central Area Plan which calls for new office structures that help reinforce the dense walkable core of the downtown area and build upon Chicago's and the region's vast transit resources.
The public infrastructure facilities and city services will be adequate to serve the proposed development at the time of occupancy. The proposed project has been reviewed by the Mayor's Office for People with Disabilities and the Department of Transportation and all requested changes have been made. Copies of this application have been circulated to other City departments and agencies and no comments have been received which have not been addressed in the application.
The project will comply with the requirements for access in case of fire and other emergencies.
Based on the foregoing, it is the recommendation of the Department of Planning and Development that this application for a Residential Business Planned Development be approved and that the recommendation to the City Council Committee on Zoning, Landmarks and Building Standards be "Passage Recommended".
