1 ARCHITECTURE PLANNING URBAN DESIGN Ms. Lorraine Weiss Department of Community Development City of San Mateo 330 West 20th Avenue San Mateo, CA RE: Station Park Green Dear Lorraine: I attended the October 14th Planning Commission Study Session, and reviewed the new sketches that were presented at that meeting. They are a marked improvement over the previous sketches, and especially did a much better job of conveying the intent of the open space throughout the project. My comments regarding the new sketches are included on the attachment to this letter. I also again reviewed the adopted Station Park Green Design Guidelines with special attention to pages 93 through 103. The guidelines envision a project composed of a village of diverse architectural styles with three emphasized building massing forms: Vertical Expression Horizontal Expression Residential Scale Expression Concerns and Issues A few observations that I would offer based on a review of the guidelines and the current designs are included below. In addition, pages 4 through 8 of the attachment to this letter show some examples of some horizontal and vertical emphasis multifamily residential structures which include other techniques that might be appropriate to consider in linking the Station Park Green designs to the design guidelines. Vertical Expression These structures seem to come close to meeting the design guidelines, but seem to be missing some of the variety and visual richness illustrated in the guidelines. Some refinements that might be considered include the following: More emphasis on the ground floor individual unit entries (e.g., canopies or awnings, architectural detail). More emphasis on the apartment building entries as focal points of the facades. Better definition of the building base, middle and top. Greater roof line modulation - vertical projections and horizontal setbacks at the top. Architectural detail to aid in solar screening of the windows. Variety in the treatment of the many repeating bays (e.g., varied window and balcony treatments). More variety in the building and detail materials in-lieu of the largely stucco facades. Vertical emphasis examples from the Station Park Green Design Guidelines are shown on the following page.

2 Station Park Green Review Comments Page 2 DESIGN GUIDELINES VERTICAL EMPHASIS EXAMPLES Horizontal Expression The horizontal emphasis structures seem to me to need substantial refinement in order to better meet the design guidelines. They are currently rather heavy in appearance, and lacking in the variety and visual richness illustrated in the guidelines. Some refinements that might be considered include the following: Better definition of the building base, middle and top (Design Guidelines Figure 3.29). More attention to the secondary vertical expression (Design Guidelines Figure 3.30). Better definition of the flex zone treatments at the ends of the horizontal buildings (Design Guidelines Figure 3.29). More variety in the facades similar to the horizontal emphasis illustrations in the design guidelines (See illustrations below). More articulation at the top floor of the structures (Design Guidelines Figure 3.31). Architectural detail to aid in solar screening of the windows. More variety in the building and detail materials in-lieu of the largely stucco facades. Horizontal emphasis examples from the Station Park Green Design Guidelines are shown below. DESIGN GUIDELINES HORIZONTAL EMPHASIS EXAMPLES

3 Residential Scale Expression The expression of most of the proposed structures seem to be greatly simplified, and lacking in the fine grain, reduced mass, vertical articulation, and architectural detail compared to the examples and diagrams included in the design guidelines. This will be especially important along the South Delaware Street frontages facing the small scale residential neighborhood the east. Some refinements that might be considered include the following: More articulation of the structures at their top floors (Design Guidelines Figures ). More variety in the building and detail materials in-lieu of the largely stucco facades. More architectural detail. Residential Scale Expression examples from the Station Park Green Design Guidelines are shown below. Station Park Green Review Comments Page 3 Lorraine, please let me know if you have any questions, or if there are any other important issues that I did not address. Sincerely, Larry Cannon Attachments: New Sketches Comments Horizontal Techniques Examples Vertical Techniques Examples

4 Very uniform box structure without the distinctive upper floor/top and end flex zones (SP Design Guidelines Page 98) Streetscape might benefit from more prominent entries (e.g., projecting canopies) 1 STATION PARK 2 CONCAR (LOBBY) Contrasting vertical and horizontal forms seem to work in this context (Note open corner) Good facade depth Railings are warm and offer some privacy but seem a bit foreign to the contemporary style of the buildings 3 CONCAR (RETAIL) Seems like an appropriate corner treatment for this location 4 DELAWARE (RESIDENTIAL) 1 New Sketches Comments

5 Corner element is distinctive but does not seem to flow very well with the rest of the residential building Very uniform box structure without the distinctive upper floor/top and end flex zones (SP Design Guidelines Page 98) 5 DELAWARE (RETAIL) Juliette balconies might be considered here to enhance the visual quality of the pedestrian entry to the Park Very uniform box structure without the distinctive upper floor/top and end flex zones (SP Design Guidelines Page 98) 6 EVA This seems heavy and not very residential in scale Units and EVA pedestrian character might benefit from wider decks along this frontage Seems appropriate for the primary corner and relates well to the future Hines office building 7 GARVEY PARK 8 CONCAR / DELAWARE CORNER 2 New Sketches Comments

6 Corner is heavy and boxy Visually appears as an assemblage of boxy forms All floors and bays are the same (no distictive top/middle/base) (SP design guidelines page 98) RES-4 DELAWARE RESIDENTIAL FRONTAGE In general, these heavy box-like frames seem to be crushing down on the glass ground floor facades 9 STATION PLAZA 10 TRAIN CORRIDOR 3 New Sketches Comments

7 Building top variety Solar screening details Two-story base expression Building frame example of similar scale to current Station Park Green proposal H1 Variety and lightness Lighter frame surround and substantial facade depth and variety H2 4 These are some examples of techniques used elsewhere on horizontal format residential structures to add visual interest. Horizontal Technique Examples

8 Solar shading detail Warm modular material Building entry emphasis Set back top floor H4 varied facade projections, recesses, materials and details Distinctive building top Distinctive building middle with varied forms, details and materials H3 Distinctive building base with varied openings and materials 5 These are some examples of techniques used elsewhere on horizontal format residential structures to add visual interest. Horizontal Technique Examples

9 Varied top floor Combination of horizontal and vertical elements H5 Warm modular material at base Building entry emphasis Varied skyline silhouette Distinctive building top H6 Substantial facade depth 6 These are some examples of techniques used elsewhere on horizontal format residential structures to add visual interest. Horizontal Technique Examples

10 V1 Roof line breaks to provide varied sky silhouette Distinctive building top Varied materials, colors and finishes Strongly articulated entries V2 7 These are some examples of techniques used elsewhere on vertical format residential structures to add visual interest. Vertical Technique Examples

11 Projecting solor shade detail Layered projections Varied skyline silhouette Interesting contemporary window treatment Projecting solor shade detail Significant facade depth V3 Varied bay module widths Varied skyline silhouette V4 Warm modular material at base Significant changes in facade depth Light open corners These are some examples of techniques used elsewhere on vertical format residential structures to add visual interest.
