RE: Eagle View Landing Office Building 5 CZC
May 6, 2022
The included list encompasses Meridian's CZC Architectural review comments and Architectural
responses:
The following two comments will be addressed together.
Meridian Comment: If not complying with design standards #2.1A, #2.18 submit a request for
a design standard exception as outlined on pg. A-4 of the Architectural Standards Manual.
Meridian Comment: How are you complying with design standards #3.4A & #3.4C? If not
complying, request a design standard exception.
Standard 2.1A: "Buildings with rooflines 50-feet in length or greater must incorporate
roofline and parapet variations. Variations may include step-downs, step -backs, other
modulation, or architectural features such as cornices, ledges, or columns, and must
occur in total combination for at least 20% of the fagade length. May be averaged over
entire fagade, but may not exceed 75-feet without a break."
Standard 2.1 B: For buildings with fagades longer than 200-feet, reduce massing of
buildings by grouping or incorporating smaller tenant spaces along the commercial
fagade, or by incorporating at least one significant modulation with depth at least 3% of
the total fagade length or 10-feet, and a width in combination at least 20% of the fagade
length.
Standard 3.4A: For flat roofs, incorporate primary and secondary roof elements including
but not limited to: multiple material types along parapets, multiple parapet elevations with
at least 1-foot change in elevation, or modulation of at least 2-feet in the parapet, such
as along entryway overhangs. Qualifying elements must exist for at least 20% the length
of applicable fagades. May also incorporate secondary roof types, such as hip roofs
along overhangs.
Standard 3.4C: Provide variation in roof profile over fagade modulation and/or
articulation over fagade material/color transitions. Options include, but are not limited to:
varying parapet heights; two or more roof planes; continuation of fagade modulation
through roof lines; dormers; lookouts; overhang eaves; sloped roofs; or cornice work.
Response: We understand the importance of modulation, and are articulating the
facades and roofs in several ways. At the South elevation, an extruded mass frames the
entrance, and the stair tower provides further fagade articulation and breaks up the
parapet form. At the North and East, the first floor mass extends outward, forming a
rooftop patio and providing significant modulation. Additionally at the North, a stair tower
is massed to visually intersect the fagade and has been raised to extend beyond the
parapet. At the roof, the parapet is designed as a dynamic sloping articulation and
avoids flat, non -interesting aesthetics. Parapet shape is designed for simplicity and

Meridian Comment: Is architectural lighting proposed on the building? If so, submit a detail of
such (#2.28, #6.00).
Response: Yes, architectural lighting is proposed. Fixtures to be surface -mounted with
manufacturer -supplied trim. See attached lighting rendering.
Meridian Comment: What architectural features are proposed for pedestrian scale besides
fenestration patterns, that demonstrate compliance with design standard #2.3A (i.e. ledges,
lighting, entry canopies, etc.)?
Response: Pedestrian -scale elements include: fenestration patterns, vertical and
horizontal material transitions/modulation, and landscaping.
Meridian Comment: Are canopies or other projections or overhangs proposed within 20' of all
public entryways that comply with design standard #4.18?
Yes, raised building elements are provided at primary North and South entries.
Additionally, vestibules are provided, meeting standard 4.1 B.
