PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant proposes to construct a multi-story mixed-use building with ground floor retail, 105 dwelling units, accessory parking and accessory uses. The applicant is seeking an up zoning to a C1-5, Neighborhood Commercial District to a Residential Business Planned Development. The proposal includes the construction of a 9-story (104'-10") residential tower, 6,592 square feet of commercial retail space, and 45 accessory parking spaces. The unit breakdown for the project is as follows: 24 studio units, (49) One-bedroom, and (35) two-bedroom units.

The project has an estimated total project cost of $20,000,000.00 and the expected construction time line is 18 months. The project is anticipated to generate 100 construction jobs and 20 permanent full time jobs.

DESIGN
The multi-story building is primarily comprised of an architectural composite metal panel system and a Terracotta Rain Screen System. The facades are further defined and glass window system. This architectural vocabulary defines primarily the residential tower fronting West Grand Avenue elevation. The ground floor contains commercial retails space and fronts West Grand Avenue, and is enclosed by a glass storefront. The residential units are contained on two through nine with the roof top programed for amenities and mechanical uses. The remaining elevations of the base of the building include scoured concrete and masonry, Cordova Stone ground face.

ACCESS/CIRCULATION
The site has vehicular access via an existing public alley. Pedestrian access for the residential tower is located along West Grand Avenue from a residential entry lobby. The ground floor of the proposed building is designed for commercial retail space fronting West Grand Avenue. The design ofthe base ofthe building improves the pedestrian experience and is enlivened by a glass store front facade fronting the street frontage.

LANDSCAPE / SUSTAINABILITY
The project will install new parkway trees along West Grand Avenue (4 trees). The project will comply with the City's Landscape Ordinance. The project will also comply with the Storm Water Management Ordinance, implementing best practices in stormwater management. The project will satisfy the requirements of the City of Chicago's Sustainable Development matrix: The project anticipates receiving building certification and will provide approximately 9,457 square feet of green roof covering 50% of the net roof area.

BULK/USE/DENSITY
The site will be rezoned to a C1-5 District and has a maximum allowable Floor Area Ratio (F.A.R) of 5.0. This proposed Residential Business Planned Development will achieve an F.A.R of 4.25. Based on the projects net site area of 23,854 square feet the blended Minimum Lot Area would permit 105 dwelling units under the C1-5 District.


Page 2 of 4

The developer has opted to reduce the FAR ofthe building from a 5.0 FAR to 4.25 FAR to permit the scale and bulk of the building to be in character with the surrounding area.

RECOMMENDATION
The Department of Planning and Development has reviewed the project materials submitted by the applicant and has concluded that the proposed application for a Residential Business Planned Development would be appropriate for the site and that the project meets the review criteria for planned developments set forth in the Zoning Ordinance (Section 17-13-0900).
The project complies with the Standards and Guidelines for Planned Developments in the Zoning Ordinance (Section 17-8-0900).

Compliance with Zoning. The proposed building would conform to all the requirements and restrictions ofthe C1-5, District for uses, height, floor area ratio, and density.

The pedestrian access for the residential tower is located along West Grand Avenue and is identified via a residential entry lobby. Loading will occur internal to the building envelope and foot print and be accessed from an existing alley.
Pedestrian Orientation. The proposed project will allow unimpeded pedestrian flow on West Grand Avenue. Residential patrons will access the residential entry lobby through West Grand Avenue.
Urban and Building Design. The building's modern design emphasizes the contrast among the various types of architectural styles and vocabulary along West Grand Avenue. The building materials include an architectural composite metal panel system and a Terracotta Rain screen System. The facades are further defined with a glass window system.

The ground floor contains commercial retails space and fronts West Grand Avenue, and is enclosed by a glass storefront. The residential units are contained on two through nine with the rooftop programed for amenities and mechanical uses. The remaining elevations of the base of the building include scoured concrete and masonry, Cordova Stone ground face.

The permitted uses are allowed within the project's underlying zoning of C1-5 District.
