Well I'm not very happy with this one;
About ten people showed up tonight and all of us agreed that the proposal was very unatrractive and could do with a visual upgrade. To put it one way "It looks like an aircraft hanger".
One upside though is everybody agreed the land-use was a good idea and was what they wanted.
Anyways more facts about it;
- 45 feet (13 metres) at maximum elevation.
- Final proposal is expected to be ready for approval in Early Fall.
- Site allows for 75 feet (22m).
- Under viewplanes
- It has two driveway entrances with 43 underground parking spaces and 31 surface parking spots
- ground floor is glass on the front and stone tile on the sides and rear, second floor is corrogated metal and EIFS, and the third floors has the typical residential Bedford look of siding.
As for the layout it is technically one building but the ground floor is split in two with covered parking in the middle. The second floor extends the entire building length and is for office use. The third floor has a pitched roof and is five "family" style condos with floorplates from 1200-2500sq ft. It also has a random deck extending out the northern end that really does not look right.
To put the description simply one person compared it to an aircraft hanger and one compared it to the new storage building for Fisherman's Market.
So far this is the worst looking W.M. Fares proposal I have ever seen.
EDIT: Just on a side note the motel lands next door are owned by United Gulf and while there are some long-term plans for them they have said that nothing will be progressing on them for a few years yet. They must be waiting to finish some of their other projects.
