Goal Within multi -family developments, enhance wayfinding and create L O R1.20 a unique identity for each building, by incorporating complimentary variation in design. Building elevations are visually pleasing, modulated, and utilize stucco and masonry to align with architectural features and materials in adjacent developments. Buildings frame designated amenity areas. Pedestrian scale elements include masonry, standing seam metal roofing, a change of color at the base of building, and patios. I Proposed pedestrian routes are direct, contiguous, and have clear visibility to amenities, parking, and public rights -of -way. Pedestrian connections have been provided to all amenities, the public rights -of -way, and the proposed public plaza. Buildings line the public plaza, sport courts, field, dog park, and pathway, providing views into public spaces and amenities. Clear access is provided to all buildings. Buildings are oriented to frame open space, provide resident views into open space, and enhance pedestrian environments. Building forms are modulated, material changes occur frequently, metal awnings and standing seam metal roofs add accent materials, and balconies and windows provide additional visual interest. Four different residential building types are proposed, with two to three different color schemes per building type, creating unique building identities.
