It is found that the proposed project was reviewed by the Internal Design Review
Committee on May 9. 3000. and the following revised pertinent comments were
made: Urban DemigxIContext-/m>While the committee appreciates the applicant's
attempts todevelop the project with ground floor retail liner and stroetsoapin0, the
project as proposed atU/ consists ofm auperb|onkthat internalizes most activity within
a private corridor and elevated walkways. These areas are incorporated into the
nom8s of the cornp|ex, thus drawing activity off ofthe street, and they do little to
promote a diverse and lively urban environment. Shoppers will have little need to
naouh the public street level and engage with the revitalized Arts District; (b) As
stated previously, develop NE 14th Street as a "public" street to provide for the
highest level ofconnectivity with neighboring CRAanams and future connectivity with
the waterfront. We understand that the current segment of NE 14th Street between
Bmyahon* and Herald Plaza Drive is not public right of way, but we urge the project
to develop the area as a fully operational public street with a seamless connection to
the existing city street grid. This would include that the street be fully open to the
sky, open to typical vehicular tnaffio, and he developed at street level with m high
percentage of active uses that promote pedestrian activity; (c)Aa previously stmted,
chamfer the southwest corner of the building to respond to the existing urban hzrnn
(Performing Arts Center) developed at the intersection of NE 0oyohonymnd NE 13 m
Street. This edge does not react to the surrounding properties; /d\ As previously
atated, consider parallel parking on all exterior streets; (e) Confirm the design and
implementation of the circular plaza on Boyohore [)rive with the Public VVnrha
Department; (O Provide dimensions of all vehicular entries and curb cuts in this
project; Architecture -(m)While the committee appreciates the developments in the
nn000ing and materials of the project, the architectural treatment continues to bear
little relationship tothe human scale. |tpresents aouperb|Vokof10O'tall blank walls
along all sides of two critical blocks within the Performing Arts District, and is
unacceptable; (b) The proposed f@gode mo|udon, consisting of large panels which
very slightly in height. setback, and nnGteria|, while an improvement over the original
submittal of the project (09-27-2005) continues to be unacceptable. These panels
continue tubeout ofscale with the pedestrian environment that iaenvisioned for the
Performing Arts Center. Their dimnansions, which vary from 100'x30' to 100'x120'.
are too large and dominate theotreetaoape; /c\ Indicate the depth and dimensions of
all fGgmde treatment in plan-, (d) The scale of the proposed |ouv9rs, nnSt8| pmne|o,
window openings, mvvninQo, and other architectural embellishment on the building is
too large. These treatments create on unrealistic fa�;ode and an uncomfortable
pedestrian environment. Continue todevelop these architectural treatments with the
proper human oom|e; (*) The vehicular ramp at the north side of the parking garage
serves as an important termination tothe view south down North Bmyahnre [)rive.
Provide a more architectural solution to this rnnnnent of the building rather than the
proposed 80' tall advertisement; Materials - (a) The architectural treatment,
consisting of large blocks of varying nnaterim|s, shall be further developed to include
owider range of materials, such as stained concrete and spandrel glass; (b) Provide
dimensions of all hagode modulations and oonnnoeroio| panels on the e|ev8UnOS, so
that the committee has o better sense of the impact of this project On the pedestrian
raa|nn� (c)The proposed use of metal louvers and mesh along much of the f@Vade of
the two blocks is unacceptable; (d)The committee is concerned that the metal with
green lighting will appear a typical gray during the day and will blend with the
adjacent pane|8, creating an unbroken vvGU of metal that will become monotonous;
(e) The metal grille work (ahem{ A-3.05) consists of panels that are nearly m story
high, which is unacceptable. Reconsider the aom|e and articulation of these panels
and consider a more human -scale solution; 0l The "Aluminum Frame with Inset

^o|eorglazing" ofthe retail storefronts. Please update these renderings toaccurately
depict the character of the material; /g\ Clarify whether the white vvmU depicted on
sheet Ar3.06 is stone cladding or scored stucco; (h) The awning treatment located
on the east and xveotfm�mde of the building (aheetA-3.O0) is nearly 20' high and
bears little relationship tothe pedestrian scale of the street. Continue to refine the
scale and articulation of these awnings and COD8idU[ G more human -scale G0|udOO;
(i) Update all plans and elevations to include the water feature depicted on sheet Ar
5.08. if applicable; (j) Provide additional information regarding the details of the
interior norridor, including the m|evotor, eaoa|mtor, nna1erim|s, art sou|cture, omhwa|ka,
roofing and railings; S' e- (a) Confirm the use of large-scale advertisement
panels with the Zoning Department; (b) The proposed Commercial Panels on the
North and East elevations of the building are out of SC@|8 with the context and are
inappropriate. The precedent example (sheet A-3.O8)depicts apanel that isaround
20' high and has m powerful impact onthe pedestrian naa|nn. The proposed panels
in this project, hoxvever, will benearly 9O' high will have an impact onthe pedestrian
peo|nn that is inappropriate. Reduce the size of these panels to be more in keeping
with the human scale; (c) The retail oigna0e for the first floor (sheetA-3.05) is nearly
m story high and is unacceptable. Reduce the size of this si0nage to be more in
keeping with the pedestrian 000|e. Meet with the zoning department to confirm the
size of this aignmgel- (d} The quantity and locations of eignage in the project is
excessive and does not meet currant Zoning Code; Parking Garmgm-(o) |tiscritical
that parked oana and mechanical systems within the garage be hidden from view.
Provide details of the materials proposed to cover the garage openinga, and indicate
how all vehicles and nnaohmnico| systems within the garage will be concealed from
view. Include wall sections and precedent photographs so that the committee can
better understand the garage treatment; (b) Provide architectural treatment or R
rooftop garden on the top floor ofthe parking ganaQe, as it will be highly visible from
the surrounding high-rise buildings. |nparticular, ensure that all cars onthe top level
of the garage will be hidden from view from above; (e) Consider lining the second
floor ofthe parking garage with office space along Bmyshore Orive, and if possible,
Herald Plaza; dl Consider providing second floor retail liner along the interior street.
This will create e more dynamic and active retail sp000, and will enhance the
experience of the interior street; (A) Reduce the width of the truck loading entrance
and exit to the nnininnuno permitted by zoning. Detail these entrances and exits so
that the building frontmge, otreetsompe. and pedestrian realm of the sidewalk are as
continuous as possible; (h) Provide additional details of the treatment of the loading
Space located off of Herald Plaza. If possible, this loading space should be
relocated so that Herald Plaza has more continuous pedestrian realm; Landscape/
Pedestrian R8a|nl - (@) All landscaping and str9etscGping must conform to the
Performing Arts Center and the Omni atnaotsoape guide|ines, and should reflect the
existing atresdsoopeimprovements that are located inthe right ofway. The proposal
tomatch the pavinguofthe Performing Arts Center isunacceptable. Please consult
Mr. Frank RoUaamn /305\679-8800. for more information; /b\ Provide shade trees
and landscaping along Herald Plaza in the ammm manner as proposed along North
Bmyshone [)rive-, (u) Articulate the pedestrian sidewalk to give dominance to the
pedestrian realm over the vehicular areas. Achieve this by providing @ sidewalk with
oconsistent pattern and height that continues across vehicular areas. Vehicles shall
rise to the sidewalk level with ramping beginning at the outer edge of the cVrb, with
the ramp slope being the maximum allowed by Public Works. As part Cfyour details
and materials sheet in the final submitta|, please include a detail of this vehicular
ramping; (d) Clarify whether the planters at the bases of the columns and in the
U6'O10S3mu
facade openings, depicted on sheet A-3.04 and A-5.05. will be included in the
landscape plan for the site; (e) The City of Miami has m tree removal application fwmn
and instructions that will need to be acquired. Please submit o survey of existing
|ondouopa The City uses m method of "sum of inches" diameter at breast height to
calculate replacement values vs. the oounty'a method ofnq. footage. Please refer to
the City of Miami tree protection ordinance passed January 2005 and show
necessary tables/ replacement species and sizes. The Planning Department's
