Maintain consistent and contiguous pedestrian environments

Incorporate architectural features on all sides of a building
facade facing: the primary entrance(s) of an adjacent building,
public roadways, interior site amenities, and fagades that are
visible from public spaces. See Architectural Elements, Building
Form, and Materials sections.
Buildings must orient, frame, and/or direct pedestrian views to
adjacent cultural buildings, parks, and plazas.
Design and orient buildings not to impede access. The build-
ing should enhance the appeal of open space and pedestrian
environments
Pedestrian path is clear and direct to the main entrance and
lobby.
Most of the building is considered private and pedestrian
connection is limited to the main entrance and parking area.
All sides of building are detail to be similar to the main street
facing facade, east side, and the building is neighbored by
Discovery Park on the south and west sides.
As this is an emergency service building, the building faces the
adjacent street for both safety and efficiency.
