Can someone see if anything stands out here as failing? I'm depending on the conifers up near the service drive (3 new and 1 existing) to be my PP wind screen. Also, how much of the Accessible spaces needs to be within the 100' distance of the office entry?
I'm using the program in my old NCARB Exam Guide:
1. Locate the 5-story, 60 ft high Office Tower close to the Pond.
The main entrance shall be visible from Bentley Avenue.
2. Locate the 1-story, 20 ft high Restaurant close to the Office Tower.
3. Draw an 8,000 ft Pedestrian Plaza.
Locate the Pedestrian Plaza within the building limit lines so that the main entrance to the Office Tower opens directly onto the Pedestrian Plaza.
4. The view of the service entrance on the Restaurant shall be blocked from the Pedestrian Plaza.
The view of the Service Entrance shall be blocked by buildings and/or trees, as appropriate.
5. The Restaurant shall have a view of the Pond.
6. The main entrance of the Restaurant shall receive the noonday summer sun.
Assume a 45° solar altitude angle.
7. The Pedestrian Plaza shall be blocked from the prevailing winter winds.
The wind shall be blocked by buildings and/or trees, as appropriate.
8. Draw a total of 33 parking spaces.
30 standard (9 ft x 18 ft) parking spaces are required.
3 universally accessible (12 ft x 18 ft) parking spaces are required.
Locate the universally accessible parking spaces within 100 ft of the main entrance of the Office Tower.
All parking spaces shall be perpendicular to the traffic aisles.
No parallel parking is permitted.
9. Draw all traffic aisles and drives required to connect parking to the street.
Drive-through circulation is required.
Dead-end parking is prohibited.
Parking along the service drive is prohibited.
All drives and traffic aisles are automatically drawn at a width of 24 ft.
The intersection of the access drive with the street must be perpendicular to the street for at least the first 20 ft of the drive.
10. Provide only one 24 ft wide curb cut located no closer than 120 ft from the intersection of the centerlines of the two existing public streets.
11. Draw vehicular circulation to access the parking and service entrance.
A service drive shall attach to the service entrance of the Restaurant.
A turnaround or drive-through circulation is not required for the service drive.
12. Connect the Pedestrian Plaza, the universally accessible parking spaces, and the main entrances of the two buildings to each other and to the existing public walk with a continuous walkway system.
The Pedestrian Plaza shall be considered part of the walkway system.
13. Adhere to the following general conditions:
Paving on the site shall be minimized.
Drives, traffic aisles, and parking spaces shall be no closer than 5 ft to a building.
Buildings must be separated by a minimum of 20 ft.
Provide a 30 ft setback from the Pond for all construction or built improvements.
No more than 6 existing trees may be removed or disturbed.
No construction or built improvements of any kind shall occur over any other existing site feature.
No construction or built improvements of any kind shall occur outside the building limit line except for direct vehicular and pedestrian access.
Buildings shall not overlap the Pedestrian Plaza or parking.
Thanks for any input!
