Sections 2.2.4, 2.2.5, and 2.2.6 are hereby renumbered <br />2.2.3, 2.2.4, and 2.2.5, respectively.] <br /> <br />Sec. 2.2.43 – MAXIMUM ESTABLISHMENT LENGTH: <br /> <br />In order to foster the most dynamic, interesting, and vibrant pedestrian activity possible, it is <br />important to ensure that large stretches of sidewalks are not dominated by one ground floor use. <br />When one establishment dominates too large of an area, coming and going activity is focused on <br />a narrow geographic area, leaving the remainder dull and underused. Furthermore, each business <br />tends to have its own unique pattern of busy hours and slow hours—therefore a fine-grained mix <br />of ground floor establishments can help to avoid significant lulls in activity for a given area during <br />significant parts of the day or week. <br /> <br />1. Standards <br /> <br />a. There are no Maximum Establishment Length standards. <br /> <br />2. Guidelines <br />a. No individual ground floor establishment should occupy a greater length of <br />frontage than indicated for its Use Group on the Use Regulations Chart. For corner <br />establishments, each street frontage shall be measured separately, and the <br />establishment may occupy up to the maximum length of frontage on each street. <br />25 ft. except as indicated below. For corner establishments, each street frontage <br />shall be measured separately, and the establishment may occupy up to the <br />maximum length of frontage on each street. <br />• Entertainment Use Group: <br />(a) 50 ft. where active ground floor uses are required (Along --) <br />(b) 100 ft. all other areas (Typical) <br /> <br />• General Retail Use Group: <br />(a) 50 ft. where active ground floor uses are required (Along --) <br />(b) 75 ft. in all other areas (Typical) <br /> <br />b. Large ground floor establishments should be wrapped with smaller “liner shops.” <br />Liner shops should be at least 20 feet deep to ensure financial viability. <br />Sec. 2.8.4 – BUILDING BASE – PRIVATE FRONTAGE TYPE REGULATIONS: <br /> <br />A property’s permitted Private Frontage Types are determined by Corridor Type as shown on the <br />Facade Composition Regulations Map and Facade Composition Regulations Chart.
