Project Plan
Consequently, an area of some
185 feet by 320 feet would be excluded from development plans in an effort to preserve the grove of
Douglas Fir trees.
Preliminary analysis of the site has indicated that it would be feasible to construct three below grade
levels. However, structural considerations of excavation and proximity to adjoining buildings may
be reviewed. With these parameters in mind, it can be calculated that, for below grade construction
alone, there is cubage available to accommodate 273,650 square feet of space in three levels. This
assumes that recommended measures would be taken to preserve the Douglas Fir trees, and utilized
in the design.
The extent of above grade construction is constrained by a desire to limit the maximum height of
new construction to about 25 feet to 28 feet above grade, and to largely preserve the present garden
environment of the site. It should be noted that extensive above grade construction would impair
