The applicant seeks to build a 2-story, 34,OOO-square foot medical office
building on 7.54 acres.
The site is located at 11911 North Pennsylvania Street and is zoned B-
6/within the US 31 Overlay.
Filed by Joseph Scimia for REI Real Estate Services, Inc.
The applicant is requesting approval of a two-story medical office building. The building
is zoned B-6 and is located within the US 31IMeridian Street Overlay District. Please see
the informational packet prepared by the applicant for an overview of this project.
This item was discussed at the March 15, 2006 Technical Advisory Committee meeting.
Issues raised at that meeting include the building's orientation and facades, landscaping,
and pedestrian access. The building faces Pennsylvania Street, however, the primary
entrance is oriented to the west, towards the parking lot adjacent to the existing building
on the Meridian Street frontage. Staff requested that a similar or matching fa~ade
improvement, be added to the Pennsylvania Street fa~ade, and that additional landscaping
and a pedestrian walkway be provided along that frontage.\Jhe petitioner proposed
adding detail to this elevation with the use of landscaping, as well as by adding bump
outs to the elevation) .
Elevations filed with the Commission's packet indicate some revisions for the
Pennsylvania Street fa~ade. While this fa~ade represents an improvement, it does not
illustrate all of the discussed alterations.
Petitioner should bring the following to the Commission meeting:
1. Update on landscape plan and engineering approvals.
2. Revised elevations.
3. A revised site plan indicating bicycle parking.
The Department recommends that this item be forwarded to the Special Studies
Committee on May 4, 2006, for further discussion.
