Broadway, Suite 102 Meridian, ID 83642 Re: Gramercy Medical Office Building 2667 E Gala St. Meridian, ID 83642 Certificate of Zoning Compliance and Design Review Letter: Gramercy is a subdivision located off Overland Rd. near Eagle Rd. This subdivision is an up and coming area of Meridian with lots of development going on. It was our intent to enhance this development, matching with similar materials, but having some features so as to break up monotony within the subdivision. In addition, we have addressed all four sides of the building to have similar design quality (not simply the street facing facades). With wall fagade modulations, brick accents, various fenestration assemblies, etc., we feel the beauty of the building is well within the guidelines and criteria of the Meridian Design Manual. However, we will address each item below as it might relate to this building: 1. Architectural Character: a. Facades - there are enhancements such as changes in plane with recessed entries, awnings, pilasters, chamfered corners, etc. We have varied the color and materials as well. b. Primary Public Entrances - allowing the pronounced portion of the building to be the main entrance creates visual understanding as soon as one looks at the building as to where the entrance can be found. It enhances importance and creates a building language. c. Roof Lines - Parapet variations help to break up the roof line of the building and accent certain portions of the building, such as the entry d. Pattern Variations - the differences in wall undulations, materials and colors creates a cohesive tapestry of natural elements. e. Fenestration - natural light is important to us, thus we have located numerous windows around the perimeter of the building, allowing the majority of the office spaces inside to have natural light f. Mechanical - the mechanical equipment will be located on the roof and will be screened by the parapets. Any ground level equipment or utility meters will be screened with landscaping. 2. Color and Materials - using similar color and material qualities to the surrounding neighborhoods, thus creating a cohesive appearance throughout the site, has been an important consideration. The well composed mixture of brick to stucco, combined with complimentary colored stucco banding creates an attractive building with variations in textures, colors and materials - similar to other attractive buildings in the Meridian area.

Building Location - along Meridian Rd. in a prominent location b. Parking areas - designed to accommodate the large amount of office space in the building, as well as have an easy flow through the parking lot with access from either the north. c. Street Layout and Internal Circulation -the majority of the streets and circulation in the area are existing d. Pedestrian Walkways and Facilities -a concrete sidewalk will be added to connect the existing sidewalk to the entrances. Cohesive Design - This building is similar in finishes, style, and scale to the existing buildings within the surrounding neighborhoods. Connectivity is present through unified use of existing drives and walkways throughout the area. Additionally, landscaping and site work will enhance the existing. Our project building relates well to the overall character and intent, while still allowing for some noticeable differences between each structure in the subdivision.

Broadway, Suite 102 Meridian, ID 83642 Re: Gramercy Medical Office Building 2667 E Gala St. Meridian, ID 83642 ne5 e ) /NFRCH1-FF=C"TUF=U= • Certificate of Zoning Compliance and Design Review Letter: Gramercy is a subdivision located off Overland Rd. near Eagle Rd. This subdivision is an up and coming area of Meridian with lots of development going on. It was our intent to enhance this development, matching with similar materials, but having some features so as to break up monotony within the subdivision. In addition, we have addressed all four sides of the building to have similar design quality (not simply the street facing facades). With wall facade modulations, brick accents, various fenestration assemblies, etc., we feel the beauty of the building is well within the guidelines and criteria of the Meridian Design Manual. However, we will address each item below as it might relate to this building: 1. Architectural Character: a. Facades - there are enhancements such as changes in plane with recessed entries, awnings, pilasters, chamfered corners, etc. We have varied the color and materials as well. b. Primary Public Entrances - allowing the pronounced portion of the building to be the main entrance creates visual understanding as soon as one looks at the building as to where the entrance can be found. It enhances importance and creates a building language. c. Roof Lines - Parapet variations help to break up the roof line of the building and accent certain portions of the building, such as the entry d. Pattern Variations - the differences in wall undulations, materials and colors creates a cohesive tapestry of natural elements. e. Fenestration - natural light is important to us, thus we have located numerous windows around the perimeter of the building, allowing the majority of the office spaces inside to have natural light f. Mechanical - the mechanical equipment will be located on the roof and will be screened by the parapets. Any ground level equipment or utility meters will be screened with landscaping. 2. Color and Materials - using similar color and material qualities to the surrounding neighborhoods, thus creating a cohesive appearance throughout the site, has been an important consideration. The well composed mixture of brick to stucco, combined with complimentary colored stucco banding creates an attractive building with variations in textures, colors and materials - similar to other attractive buildings in the Meridian area.

Building Location - along Meridian Rd. in a prominent location b. Parking areas - designed to accommodate the large amount of office space in the building, as well as have an easy flow through the parking lot with access from either the north. c. Street Layout and Internal Circulation - the majority of the streets and circulation in the area are existing d. Pedestrian Walkways and Facilities - a concrete sidewalk will be added to connect the existing sidewalk to the entrances. Cohesive Design - This building is similar in finishes, style, and scale to the existing buildings within the surrounding neighborhoods. Connectivity is present through unified use of existing drives and walkways throughout the area. Additionally, landscaping and site work will enhance the existing. Our project building relates well to the overall character and intent, while still allowing for some noticeable differences between each structure in the subdivision.
