Presentation Transcript

  1. Introduction • Background • Study Area • Building Heights • FAR • Draft ARP

  2. Massing Study • Process • Max FAR • Constraint • Floor Heights 4 m (Ground) 3.2 m (residential) • Footprint • Assumptions • Lot shape can be managed • Aggregation will happen at some point • Parking underground (2-3 levels) • Foundation issues can be solved • Cost not an issue – land and building • Public space development resolved off site) • Phasing issues can be managed

  3. Introduction • Computer Model • Urban form suggestive of architecture • First model • Current model • ARP • Preference to Tower • Podium + Tower • Area, FAR • Model • Real time • Web accessible

  4. Ultimate Purpose • Hillhurst/Sunnyside: To prepare land use and urban design options to optimize redevelopment opportunities for medium to high density mixed use development in strategic locations within the study area boundaries. Variations in build-out densities and built form should be explored. • West LRT Line:To develop a high level land use structure and urban design strategy . identify pedestrian-oriented areas, auto-oriented areas and transition areas; establish design principles for public systems and urban design. (TOD Charettes – Draft Detailed Agenda V1.4)

  5. Design Precedent in Calgary • Proposed Zoning and Design Guidelines • Massing • Min and max floor plate • Heights • Max height for towers • Landmark building • FAR • Setbacks • Sun and Shade • Architectural Character • “Kensington is a village” • Historic Landmarks • Mix • Commercial / Retail • Residential • Affordability

  6. Introduction • Parking • Location • Min. footprint • Streetscape • Sidewalk width, 3 to 4.5 m • Public space plan • Future • Traffic • Local • Truck • Retail and commercial

  7. Introduction • Phasing • 5, 10, 20 years • Parcel aggregation • Which are the first sites to be developed under the new zoning

  8. Introduction • Design Concept • Design Precedent in Calgary • Massing • 2 Stories • 3 Stories • 4 Stories • 5 Stories • 6-8 Stories • Towers
