Site and Roof Plan Progress Print

Hi Werner...you are correct in that I have not revised my site plan much... I wanted to get something up for Kevin's comment(in particular, site drainage and runoff management). I did shrink the fountain and try to make for more plaza space with seating around the water feature, but the site plan doesn't reflect those changes yet...it definitely will....I think that I will have much of my supporting posts, i.e. structural, mechanical, code, completed to an acceptable level of detail very soon and I will be able to spend the remainder of my time fully focusing on outstanding plan/site plan issues to fully address the critics, as well as your own, comments.

Peter, I’m disappointed. You have so much time, and you are not changing your site plan taking the critics comments into consideration. For starters, the site plan should not need arrows to explain entrances. The treatment of the ground surface should explain this. I suggest to use a composite ground floor rather than a roof plan to create the site plan. The plaza is filled with a (useless) fountain. How does one get into the building? How does one occupy that space? You are inversting a good amount of resources in a screen that separates the space from the street. How will it be used (other than gazing into the water)? The entry to the exhibit space seems wrong. Why would you create an entry court and than take the public thru the back door into your building?

PS, your model shots on one hand do a better job at explaining the plaza. Did you shrink the fountain? On the other hand these views show how odd the rear entry is.
