TA. - Page 39 100 `[M] `[91;:7 110 115 2.8.4.A.2.e Oz]NUVAOP Oz]U2= NF 2.8.6.B.2.b 2.9.2.B.2.g (Recessed storefront entrance): the wall surface from the beginning of the recess to the door should be situated at an approximately 45 -degree angle. The Building Middle Cap should be no less than 3 - feet in height. Overall wall composition for Building Middles should contain at least 30%, but no more than 60% glazing. The depth of a Building Top facade offset (recesses in the wall plane) shall be a minimum of 1 -foot, and should not be more than 5 - feet. The offset should be vertically straight and should run the full height of the Building Top. When used as a wall cladding material, "Glass" will refer to glass curtain walls, or a portion of a fagade of one story or greater height consisting of 100% glazing and mullions, where glazing panels may either be transparent for the exclusive use of a single dwelling unit. The two recessed storefront entries have a wall surface set at a 90 - degree angle from the beginning of the recess to the door. The Building Middle Cap is designed at 30 -inches in height. The Building Middle glazing ratios are 78% on the Bradford Street elevation, and 87% on the Jefferson Avenue elevation. The proposed Building Top facade offsets are created through vertical extensions of the 8t" floor residential patios/balconies. These facade offsets are vertically straight and run the full height of the Building Top, but are between approximately 10 and 14 -feet in depth. In order to visually mimic a true glass curtain wall design, the project proposes to use a window wall system, with clear and spandrel glass used throughout. As such, glass is the primary wall cladding material. Approve, as the proposed storefront entries are consistent with the architectural character of the building, and given that the current opening for two doors is the same width as a single - door entry with a 45 -degree recess. Approve, as the difference between the proposed height and the requirement is minimal, and there is no design reason for an additional 6 -inches to be required. Deny, as the amount of glazing utilized exceeds the prescribed ratio by too large of an amount. Approve, as the proposed design adds more articulation to the massing, and the increase in recess depths makes the spaces more usable. Deny, as the amount of glazing utilized exceeds the prescribed ratio by too large of an amount, thus making glass the primary wall cladding material.
