GUIDELINES FOR DESIGN The Fire Station No. 1 should have a character appropriate to downtown Pleasan- ton. Its character should respect the historic fire house and complement the street and the park. The exterior would include brick and other materials that are compatible with the old fire house and downtown. The building should be visually attractive and welcoming. A large lobby should visually connect the interior of the building to the park and allow views to the park from the street. The building should have pedes- trian-sealed features and varied massing, to be harmonious with the historic fire house. . . . FIRE STATION No. I DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS 30
