<br /> Building Design
<br /> The proposed buildings are designed to compliment the surrounding architecture with
<br /> standing seam metal roofs, granite /brick wainscots, wood trellises, awnings, and dark
<br /> aluminum storefront window systems. The proposed building designs achieve a "four -
<br /> sided design" with massing and detailing distributed to all building sides, and with
<br /> "pedestrian scale" design details and elements. The building facades facing Bernal and
<br /> Valley Avenues will have clear windows and, potentially, entry doors for accessibility to the
<br /> public sidewalks and bus stop enclosures on Bernal Avenue and Valley Avenue.
