EXISTING USE The site is located on the southeast corner at the junction of East Pike Street and 34th Avenue in Seattles Madrona neighborhood. Previously an auto repair business occupied the site and there are two existing wood frame buildings. A small building at the northeast corner of the site is leased as commercial space and the linear building along the western edge of the site is used by the owner as an artists studio. 1 - Looking southwest at E. Pike Street and 34th Ave. 5 - Looking west at site TOPOGRAPHY 34th Avenue is virtually flat along the sites property line. East Pike Street rises approximately five feet along the sites property line. There are existing retaining walls at the southern and western edges of the site that maintain the relatively level existing site topography. In its larger context, the site is located just below the crest of a hill along 33rd Avenue from which western city views are prominant. Further east down East Pike Street, views to Lake Washington become prominant. ACCESS The site is bounded by streets on two sides. To the east it is bounded by 34th Avenue, which is the principal commercial street of the Madrona neighborhood. The site is bounded by East Pike Street to the north, which is the preferred street for parking access to the site. To the north, 34th Avenue winds down to Lake Washington Avenue. Vehicles entering the neighborhood from the Lake enter the commercial zone of Madrona at East Pike Street. 7 - Looking northeast at park

VICINITY The neighborhood of Madrona is bounded by Lake Washington to the east, MLK Way to the west, E. Cherry Street to the south, and E. Howell Street to the north. Topographically, the neibhorhood is oriented along a north-south ridge at 33rd Avenue and slopes to a valley at MLK Way and to Lake Washington to the west and east, respectively. Madrona Elementary School at Union Madrona Elementary School at Spring Madrona Library Branch from 33rd Ave Madrona Playfield from Spring Street Corner of Spring St. and 34th Madrona is predominantly residental with a limited commercial district around the junction of E. Union Street and 34th Avenue. The neighborhood has a small branch library and public elementary school, both located at the corner of 33rd Avenue and E. Union Street. There are several examples of mixed-use buildings along 34th Avenue, most notably at the edges of the commercial district on E. Spring Street and E. Pike Street. Alvin Larkins Park and the Madrona Playfield bound the commercial district to the north and south. The commercial district provides a variety of building scales. Small one storey houses, single story commercial spaces mix with larger 3 story commercial and mixed-use building. Larger scale buildings are located at the southern and northern edges of the commerical district, and the Madrona Elementary Schoold provides a gateway from the west along E. Union Street.

DESIGN CUES The neighborhood contains a mixture of architectural styles. The residential area contains various traditional house styles and is also home to award-wining contemporary designs, most notably on 35th Avenue. While residential homes have been transformed into business within the commercial district, many of the larger buildings are commercial in appearance and use a variety of materials. The material pallete of buildings along 34th Avenue is predominantly wood and brick, with some concrete and stucco cladding. Street-level spaces generally have large transparent areas and provide generous overhangs or recesses at entries. There are several particularly helpful and compelling feautres in the neighborhood that will inform this design. The corners of buildings, and most notably those on street corners, tend to be articulated with added detail and prominance. Several protrude and create overhangs. Many buildings utilize several different materials in their facades. Often a material change will be used to accent a certain space or area such as an entryway. Planted form is also employed to embellish the street level facades along with awnings and canopies. Perhaps most important is the street level attention to the human scale which is expressed in the plantings, overhanging features, attractive signage, material articulation and artful detailing.

DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES 6 LIVE-WORK UNITS + 1 RESIDENTIAL -Live-work units to be < 1500 sf total 1st floor work/commercial = c. 3483 sf total 2nd + 3rd floors residential = c. 5650 sf total 1 required parking stall- 5 provided PROJECT DESCRIPTION Project is for a 3-story building containing 6 Live-Work Units and 1 Residential Unit. Overall building height is 356 with 13 ft floor-to-floor ground floor height. Overall building footprint is 4925 sf. Each Live-Work Unit will have ground floor commercial space with dwelling unit on the 2nd and 3rd floors, totaling less than 1500 sf. The Residential Unit will be located above the access driveway with a dwelling unit on the 2nd and 3rd floors. There will be one (1) van accessible parking space and four (4) small vehicle parking stalls. DESIGN OBJECTIVES - Design a building that is environmentally beneficial. The project strives to become an exemplary sustainable structure for the neighborhood. Towards this goal, the building will incorporate numerous sustainable design strategies and employ ecologically sensitive technologies. The design seeks to achieve the goals established in the Cascadia Region Green Building Councils LIving Building Challenge. Some strategies and goals are: create a permeable site that recharges groundwater and has a positive effect on limiting the velocity and quantity of stormwater runoff; gIve each unit a green roof garden that can be potentially become edible gardens; solar power and solar hot water collection; passive design for heating and cooling; rainwater collection for irrigation and toilet flushing; energy efficient construction; energy efficient appliances; sustainable construction methods and materials; recycled content construction products; ecologically sensitive material selection - Create a well-designed building that is an attractive addition to the pedestrian quality of the 34th Avenue commercial area and the residential neighborhoods surrounding the site. Part of this consideration involves careful siting of parking, preferntially in the interior of the site - Address the corner of 34th Avenue and E. Pike Street and mark the entrance to the neighborhood from the Lake and the commercial edge. A new building can achieve this by focusing massing at the corner and allowing facade elements to create a presence at the corner - Design open, contemporary living spaces that offer both individual privacy and a sense of community. This may be enhanced by shared exterior circulation and an open courtyard in the sites interior - Build well. This project envisions a new building that will last for generations and be worthy of the neighborhood and its residents

RESPONSE TO EARLY DESIGN GUIDANCE The Board was supportive of a highly sustainable, community-building live-work project in Madrona. They asked that we address parking and be specific regarding the courtyard use and also that we provide appropriate pedestrian access to the second floor units. The project team moved the building back to a full 8 from the adjacent residential lot line. This strikes a healthy balance with the required setbacks and necessary interior space requirements for viable commercial spaces. It also grants appropriate pedestrian access and the necessary egress to the sites interior. Given the specific topographic conditions on site as well as existing building footprints on the neighboring site and their respective distances from the lot line, the project team felt that this setback should be adequate. Regarding the interior courtyard, the project team has decided to provide four parking spaces in addition to the one van accessible space required by Land Use Code requirements. This decision was based on a desire to offer some parking to future residents while hoping to mitigate the projects impact on local on-street parking. The limited space available in the courtyard was a driving factor in minimizing the stall sizes and still providing some pedestrian-oriented space in the courtyard. The parking area is to be physically separated from the adjacent courtyard area via distinct material changes and topographic changes in slope. The sitewalls will be planted with a greywater filtration garden which will provide teh added benefit of softening the courtyards material palette. The project team has created an amenable community-oriented access to the 2nd floor units through an exterior walkway on the 2nd level that will overlook the common courtyard providing a greater sense of interaction. Additionally, as the team seriously considered the Boards recommendations during meetings with City Building Code officials, it was determined that the 2nd level walkway was a necessary part of the egress pathway. The common path of egress travel is required by code to be no greater than 125. Because the project includes the amenity of accessible green roofs, the 2nd level walkway becomes necessary in order to meet the requirements for the common path of egress travel. The walkway has been designed to have trellis railings and planters for the units to have herb gardens. Kitchens for each unit are specifically located adjacent to the walkway to provide greater interaction between the buildings occupants.

JUSTIFICATION AND RELATED GUIDELINES


By massing the structure along E. Pike St., parking can be kept to the interior of the site (23.47A.032.B1a) while additionally providing an amenity courtyard space and optimal solar access. The three units along E. Pike St. are minimized to accomodate necessary and appropriate site access. Recessing or chamfering the building at the corner is not consistent with the buildings architectural concept. The adjacent residential lot is sloped significantly uphill from the property line, with a c. 12 ft. tall garage built along the lot line and the residence set back more than 14 ft. from the lot line. A2- Streetscape Compatability- As a corner lot at the entrance to a commercial district, the projects siting reinforces the commercial streetscape and is consistent with similar corner projects that address the street edge on both street fronts A4- Human Activity- Project creates a livlier street edge A5- Respect for Adjacent Sites- Siting minimizes disruption of the adjacent residential lots backyard privacy and avoids overlooking the rear yard B1- Height, Bulk and Scale Compatability- Because of the adjacent sloping site conditions, the buildings siting and size maintains a respectful relationship with the adjacent zone C2- Architectural Concept and Consistency- The buildings massing and design features maintain a consistent facade bay organization, the dimensions of which have been minimized in order to permit for a setback from the adjacent lot Project siting addresses the street corner and maintains a consistent architectural language of 8-6 bays for each live-work unit. In order to maintain proportionality and to emphasize the street corner the bay lengthens to 11 ft., wrapping the street corner and accomodating the 2-6 projection along the perpendicular street. A-3- Entrances Visible from the Street- Each projected bay window emphasizes the commercial, off-street entrance below it. A-10- Corner Lots- Siting is oriented toward the street corner and bay window is an architectural feature that accentuates the corner C-1- Architectural Context- The corner siting and bay windows complement the neighborhoods existing commercial and mixed-use architectural character C-2- Architectural Concept and Consistency- The bay window spacing and porportions maintain consistency with the architectural concept and overall building form while emphasizing the street corner

Setback req. on any lot that abuts the intersection of side lot line and front lot line of a lot in a residential zone. Req. setback forms a triangular area. 2 sides must each extend along the street lot line and side lot line 15 ft. from the intersection of the street lot line and the side lot line abutting the residentially zoned lot.

That a departure be granted for the abuts a lot in a residential zone: 10 ft. for portions building to be setback 8 ft. (for porof structures above 13 ft. in height to a max. of tions above 13 ft.) from the side lot 65 ft. line along the residential lot line to the north of the site. Max. length of ea. bay window shall be 15 ft. at the line establishing the req. open area, and shall be reduced in proportion to the distance f deg. angles drawn inward from the ends of such 15 ft. dimension, reaching a max. of 9 ft. along a line parallel to and at a distance of 3 ft. from the line establishing the open area That a departure be granted for a bay window at the corner of the building to be 11 ft. along a line parallel to the establishing open area along both the north and east building facades for a total bay length of 22 ft.

SMC 23.53.035.A4c

SMC 23.54.030.B2a

For live-work units, when 10 or fewer parking spaces are provided, a max. of 25% of the parking spaces may be striped for small vehicles. A min. of 75% of the spaces shall be striped for large vehicles For non-residential driveway widths, the min. width of driveways for two-way traffic shall be 22 ft. and the max. width shall be 25 ft.

That a departure be granted for the parking aisle width to by 21 ft. for a medium parking stall that is 8 ft. wide, 16 ft. long and at a parking angle of 90 degrees A-4- Human Activity- Siting the parking area away from the street edge promotes human activity. It also creates greater spatial limitations on the parking area A-5- Respect for Adjacent Sites- Siting the parking area in the sites interior reduces the buildings impact on the adjacent lots privacy but also creates spatial limitations on the parking area That a departure be granted for the curb-cut width to be permitted at a 10 ft. A-8- Parking and Vehicle Access- Parking area location minimizes impact on the pedestrian environment. Reductions in curb cut and driveway widths also minimize impact width that is comensurate with two-way A-9- Location of Parking on Commercial Street Fronts- Parking lot location meets the preferred design guidelines for commercial street fronts, however it creates greater spatial limitations on the parking area driveway traffic for residential uses C-5- Structured Parking Entrance- The parking driveway passes through the building to maximize site spacing. Its location at the western edge of the site on E. Pike St. deemphasizes its presence and locates it near a small garage on the adjacent lot. Residential driveway and curb cut widths will diminish the parking entrances presence. That a departure be granted for the sight triangles to be permitted to be at a distance of 6-2 and 6-3 from the intersection of the driveway with the sidewalk, and that the width of one triangle be permitted at 8-8 adjacent to the driveway of the neighboring property By massing the structure along E. Pike St., parking can be kept to the interior of the site (23.47A.032.B1a) while additionally providing an amenity courtyard space and optimal solar access. This massing is also consistent with the NC-1 zoning. Establishing the building mass at the property line limits the depth of the site triangles. While it is possible to acheive a site triangle arm length of 10 ft. to the east, the western site triangle is limited to 8-8 due to its location near the property line. The parking entrance location here was selected to minimize its presence on the street front. This parking entrance will also have very limited residential vehicle use (5 total). A-2- Streetscape Compatability- Massing the building along the street reinforces the commercial characteristic of the NC-1 zoning. This siting also creates limitations on the site triangle depth. A-4- Human Activity- Siting the building along the property line of E. Pike St. enhances the quality of human activity in the commercial zone. This siting also creates limitations on the site triangle depth. C-5- Structured Parking Entrances- The parking driveway entrance is diminished by locating it near the western property line. This location, in order to remain architecturally consistent with the rest of the facade, limits the western site triangle arm length

With 6 live-work units, each under 1500 sf, and one residential unit the project is only required to provide 1 residential parking space. The project is instead proposing to provide 4 small vehicle parking spaces and one medium vehicle van accessible parking space to be used for the dwelling purposes of 4 live-work units in addition to the residential unit. The inclusion of parking in the development is based on both economic considerations as well as a desire to be good neighbors and limit, as much as possible, any additional on-street parking created by the increased density provided by the project. The parking area has been located in the site interior in order to allow the buildings massing to address the street corner. This siting is preferable according to zoning standards (23.47A.032.B1a) and Design Guidelines. By locating the parking area in the site interior, there is greater limitation on parking stall sizes and parking aisle widths. At the north side of the parking area the buildings ground floor will be set back under the cantilevered upper stories in order to accomodate parking and drive aisles. - Limiting the parking stall sizes to small and medium vehicles assists in maintaining viable drive aisle widths for all the stalls without an excessive structural cantilever. Permitting small and medium vehicle parking stalls also reinforces the project teams development goals of limiting parking to smaller fuel efficient and hybrid vehicles. A medium parking stall is also sufficient to accomodate ADA requirements for van accessible parkng, which will be provided per building code. - Two-way traffic will be necessary into the parking area. Provided parking will be for the dwelling purposes of the live-work and the residential unit. It is appropriate that the scale of the driveway width and curb cut should be residential in dimension. A smaller driveway and curb cut will also help to emphasize the pedestrian quality of the sidewalk.

SMC 23.54.030.G1

For two-way driveways and easements less than 22 ft. wide, a sight triangle on both sides of the driveway or easement shall be provided, and shall be kept clear of any obstruction for a distance of 10 ft. from the intersection of the driveway or easement with a driveway, easement, sidewalk or curb intersection if there is no sidewalk
