Developing a strategy for defining and protecting the core is essential to maintaining the residents’ cultural connection to the city’s history as well as their neighborhood identity as a ‘funky,’ creative, and diverse place to live, work and play.” Drawing heavily from community input gathered during the R/UDAT workshop held in april, 2017, a number of design priorities have been identified: NEIGHBORHOOD INTEGRATION The project will be responsive to the existing scale, massing, and land uses in the surrounding neighborhood, and will build upon the eclectic and creative spirit valued by the Northeastern neighborhood residents. The majority of the parking will be placed in an underground garage to minimize its impact, and to promote a pedestrian oriented and bike-friendly community. DIVERSITY The site must provide a wide range of housing options for the residents, and must respect the community’s desire to have housing that is affordable and attainable by middle-income local residents. The development must be truly mixed-use; bringing economic opportunities with new offices and maker spaces, housing options for residents of all walks of life, and much-needed community amenities and open spaces. CHARACTER The design of the site and buildings will enhance the neighborhood; providing a contemporary take on materials and forms already present and familiar in nearby homes and businesses. SUSTAINABILITY The site will be developed to be environmentally, economically, and socially sustainable. We are currently pursuing site-wide LEED Neighborhood Development Certification, and are committed to practical and progressive green building practices. The office space and workshops will offer new and expanded opportunities for local businesses; while the community rooms, open spaces, and overall integration of residential, production, and business uses will support a vibrant, creative, and diverse community for years to come. BUILDING DESIGN OBJECTIVES COTTONWOOD + IDA PUDF SUMITTAL || APRIL 2019 page 86 AERIAL LOOKING NORTHWEST NEIGHBORHOOD INTEGRATION • Respect the variety of building sizes and forms in the neighborhood, and offer a similar variety in the design of the individual buildings, and portions of building • Design the ground floor of all buildings with a pedestrian scale - residential stoops, main street storefronts, sheltered entries, inviting lobbies CHARACTER • Design each building to be distinctive while maintaining a coherent and cohesive project aesthetic • Develop individual details that respect the value that the community places on its own eclectic and creative culture OUTDOOR ROOMS • Provide outdoor rooms of different sizes to accommodate a variety of uses - from small groups to larger public events • Screen the edges of the outdoor spaces to preserve privacy within the nearby residences • Respond to the solar orientation of our open spaces - offer shade in the summer, and sun in the winter MATERIALS • Select materials that evoke the industrial heritage of the site, yet are appropriate for residential uses, and result in durable and sustainable structures BUILDING STRATEGIES COTTONWOOD + IDA PUDF SUMITTAL || APRIL 2019 page 87 BUILDING MATERIALS Exterior materials have been selected in order to reference the residential and industrial buildings found throughout the Northeastern neighborhood. The materials will be durable, with consideration given to reducing maintenance costs for the residents where feasible. Primary exterior wall surfaces will be faced in panel siding, and both corrugated and standing seam metal siding; while ground floor access points that are protected from the elements - entryways, stoops, storefronts, etc. - Will have wood siding. Railings, sunshades, fences, and similarly scaled items are still being designed but may consist of wood, steel frames, and/or perforated corrugated metal. Exterior materials include the following: • CNC1 - Concrete • FCP1 - Fiber Cement Wall Panel • LS1 - Fiber Cement Lap Siding • MTL1, 2 - Vertical Corrugated Siding • MTL3, 4 - Horizontal Corrugated Siding • SS1, 2 - Standing Seam Metal Panel • WD1, 2 - Horizontal Wood Siding • WD3, 4 - Vertical Wood Siding WOOD SIDINGFIBER CEMENT LAP SIDING STANDING SEAM METAL ROOFING AND SIDING CORRUGATED METAL SIDING FIBER CEMENT WALL PANEL PROJECT NUMBER SCALE DATEENSC ARCHITECTURE | URBANISM | DESIGNinfo@openscopestudio.com | 415.310.8092 E A10EXTERIOR FINISHES COTTONWOOD + IDA 1707 04-18-2019 CNC1 CONCRETE; HORIZONTAL BOARD FORM FCP1 FIBER CEMENT WALL PANEL, INTEGRAL COLOREQUITONE, NICHIHA, SIMILAR COTTONWOOD + IDA PUDF SUBMITTAL || APRIL 2019 page 88 CNC1 CONCRETE; HORIZONTAL BOARD FORM FCP1 FIBER CEMENT WALL PANEL, INTEGRAL COLOR EQUITONE, NICHIHA, SIMILAR BUILDING MATERIALS CONTINUED PROJECT NUMBER SCALE DATEENSC ARCHITECTURE | URBANISM | DESIGNinfo@openscopestudio.com | 415.310.8092 E A11EXTERIOR FINISHES COTTONWOOD + IDA 1707 04-18-2019 LS1 FIBER CEMENT LAP SIDING, PAINTEDJAMES HARDIE PLANK SMOOTH MTL1, MTL2 VERTICAL CORRUGATED SIDING BRIDGER STEEL 3/4" 26 GAGALVALUME / DARK BRONZE COTTONWOOD + IDA PUDF SUBMITTAL || APRIL 2019 page 89 LS1 FIBER CEMENT LAP SIDING, PAINTED JAMES HARDIE PLANK SMOOTH MTL1, MTL2 VERTICAL CORRUGATED SIDING BRIDGER STEEL 3/4” 26 GA GALVALUME / DARK BRONZE BUILDING MATERIALS CONTINUED PROJECT NUMBER SCALE DATEENSC ARCHITECTURE | URBANISM | DESIGNinfo@openscopestudio.com | 415.310.8092 E A12EXTERIOR FINISHES COTTONWOOD + IDA 1707 04-18-2019 MTL3, MTL4 HORIZONTAL CORRUGATED SIDINGBRIDGER STEEL 6025 STRUCTURAL BOX RIBGALVALUME / DARK BRONZE SS1, SS2 STANDING SEAM METAL PANELAEP SPAN 12" W.

COTTONWOOD + IDA PUDF SUMITTAL || APRIL 2019 page 94 PUBLIC AND RESIDENT AMENITIESThe project will offer a variety of amenities. Some of these spaces, such as the roof deck, bike workshop, and dog wash, will be used only by the residents. Others spaces, such as the courtyard and the active cottonwood frontage will be shared with the surrounding community. The outdoor publicly accessible open spaces offer pedestrian paths through the site as well, providing a space for street life to weave its way through the block. A VARIETY OF HOUSING TYPES In order to serve a diverse group of residents, the project will provide a broad range of housing types. The individual buildings will host specific apartment types that will attract different demographic groups, while the community facilities will provide social spaces for them to mix. At the same time, the provision of maker and office spaces will allow for the convenience of a live-work lifestyle. BUILDING 1 will contain studio and 1-bedroom apartments. The building will also accommodate most of the resident amenity spaces: roof deck, package room, bike workshop, dog wash, etc. BUILDING 2 will be dedicated to smaller studios. These studios will be provided with generous common kitchens, living rooms, home office spaces, and dining rooms to encourage community. BUILDING 3 will be divided into modest 1-bedroom flats and family-size 2-bedroom townhouse-style units. BUILDING 4 will make up the most urban edge of the project, and consist of ground floor 1-bedroom flats behind the makerspace workshops. The units on level 2 and 3 will be 1- and 2-bedroom townhouse / flat units. LI V E W O R K CO M M U N I T Y C O M M U N A L UR B A N H O U S I N G
