Braswell stated that the project is 75% brick and 25% stucco material. In response to Alderman Berger’s question regarding 50% retail requirement, Susan Istenes explained that the project is located in the Maryland Gateway District and that the applicant requested a deviation of the 50% requirement due to the elevation of the project. Staff felt that the intent was met because the ground level (retail) meets the retail frontage located on Maryland Avenue. Mr. Braswell stated that the retail will not only service the building residents, but also all customers. They are providing customer parking inside the first level parking garage where customers will have use of the elevators to access the retail from the back or they can park on the street (much like The Crescent). With regard to the storm water drainage, Mr. Braswell explained that at the request of MSD the project will collect the rainwater and direct it around the basin area. Alderman Berger expressed his appreciation with regard to the turn-in lane on Gay Avenue, stating that this is a great project.
