32 Design Guidelines 1. The physical appearance of the hospital campus, to the extent practicable, should fit in with the materials, colors and textures of the neighborhood. 2. Sand Point Way NE should be improved and developed as the front door of the medical campus. 3. Sand Point Way NE should be enhanced with an active street front in support of transit use. The street front program may include hospital functions open to and/or visible from the street (lobbies, waiting areas, conference spaces and food service) and sales and service uses serving the hospital and neighborhood. 4. Buildings within the Major Institution Overlay boundary should be related to one another to form a continuous and cohesive environment. 5. Development withinthemajorthe InstitutionOverlay boundary should respond, to the extent practicable, to the scale and character of adjacent neighborhood areas. 6. Circulation on the hospital campus should provide clear and orderly access to and through the campus. 7. The hospital campus should be coordinated with and respond, to the extent practicable, to the local neighborhood structure. 8. Healing landscape environments in support of patient recovery should be developed withinthehospitalcampusthe hospital campus. 9. Some hospital campus gardens, courtyards and plazas should be accessible to the neighborhood and be an extension of the neighborhood open space system. 32
