Enough to do the building across the street which has been a really good thing for us because, you know, its gotten kind of immense amount of publicity and people call me up and they go, gee, were driving by that. What was that dark material . We go, thats zinc and it has a [speaker not understood] finish. You can see a dark gray and a light gray and then there is some dark wood. What weve decided to do is to mirror and enhance and frame that compression, that negative space with a positive pushing out to the north. And then to not use metal, but to use brick tile which is you see a mockup picture there. And it would be verrigated on much smaller scale and reflects the sky and city. With this curve it makes a really exciting look. Now, the computer does not do justice to this, but you can sort of get the idea that as you drive around, you get highlights and you have this very nice annodized sunscreen. This is a view of city hall. Its a great viewpoint. It provides two sides to that gat
[speaker not understood] with neighborhoods on specific design. should the commission choose to approve the design today, it whop not be a a condition of approval, enhancements could be considered to [speaker not understood], in kind approvements would offset some of the impact fees of the project. i should note that staff has received one letter in opposition to the project expressing concerns of over loss of light and open space in the area as well as construction noise. the project sponsor did receive several letters in support of the project that were received after staff publication and we can provide the sponsor will provide those to you shortly. i d like to note that the staff woreth also included a draft costa hawkins agreement that would enable the project to locate affordable units on-site. since publication of the report, this agreement has been signed by the planning department as a project sponsor and i have that signed copy available for reference. so, in conc
and i want to commend the planners in letting us do some interesting things there. so, where is my i m so sorry about this. i was kind of hoping this wouldn t come up. how do you get the here it is. i ve got it. okay. so, i ll just go through real quickly here. so, here s the site and there is the building, the buildings which you can see have a nice fine grained look. there is the city as a whole. and you can see that there is one of the things i ll note, there is quite a bit of irrigation there and hayes valley is not a beige neighborhood, neither is san francisco. so, this is the building, the diagram showing the two elements. you divide the building into two elements. there is the flat piece and there is a curved piece. the reason for the positive curve is that we were lucky enough to do the building across the street which has been a really good thing for us because, you know, it s gotten kind of immense amount of publicity and people call me up and they go, gee, w
approval of that was granted heard by the board of supervisors in february of 2012. that agreement contemplates the construction as you see in the project before you of youth recreation facility as well as a minimum of 30 units of housing. we re happy to report we have been able to provide more than the housing of 69 units as the project currently contemplates. design wise, so, with those requirements in mine we began the design process of the clubhouse portion of the project and we selected a third-party developer for the housing. the third-party developer, fulton and gottion is in association with jones stuart and company with developers. ~ [speaker not understood] both of those organizations are here to answer any questions on the housing. as you ve heard from staff already, the development has two separate structures separated by a private open space, the clubhouse on roughly 50,000 square feet including a pool, gym, multi-purpose programming space and office space for th
