Design Guidelines for Lower Downtown Historic District, Appendix A: Standards and Guidelines for Signs (2014), pg. A-6 Projecting signs: [Comprehensive Sign Plan is] Required when projecting signs are proposed for a multiuse building. The review is needed to ensure a balanced and coordinated system of signs; to avoid visual clutter; and to encourage expressive, high quality graphics that enhance the urban pedestrian environment. Refer to Article of the Denver Zoning Code. Excerpted from Design Guidelines for Lower Downtown Historic District, Appendix A: Standards and Guidelines for Signs (2014) Guideline 1.1 Plan signage on a building and site carefully guideline? The Sugar Building, Annex and SugarSquare is a combination of three interconnected multistory

2 1.1a Ensure that design, size, placement and graphic format of signs are integrated and compatible with the building and site. 1.1b Coordinate signage size, location, materials and placement on a building to correlate with other adjacent buildings and the surrounding context. 1.1c Design signage to attract customers, but also to be subordinate to the historic architecture and surroundings, and compatible with surrounding uses. 1.1e Design signs that comply with zoning requirements, including the special provisions in Article 10 of the Denver Zoning Code that call for projecting signs to be iconic, vibrant and sculptural. buildings. All signage will be located on the building base and will not be located above the 1 st floor. A variety of sign types are proposed. The CSP outlines a hierarchy of signage to attract customers. The Sugar Building will have one (1) directory sign at the main entrance off of 16 th Street for upper level tenants with projecting signs, wall signs and window signs allowed for tenants with direct street access. The Sugar Building Annex has one (1) allowed wall sign location, projecting signs and window signs. The SugarSquare has one (1) allowed canopy sign or projecting sign (on the Sugar Building Annex) for its main tenant as well as window signage. 1.1f Use a variety of signage types to create visual interest and appeal following the sign hierarchy diagram in Figure 1, page A g Convey new information for each additional sign type added in order to create visual interest and prevent sign redundancy. 1.2 Design signs to enhance impact on the pedestrian realm, not to maximize square footage or number of signs allowed by zoning. 1.2a Design signs to be human-scaled rather than automobile-oriented so they are easily viewed by pedestrians at sidewalk level. 1.2b Create signs that are attractive and readable during the day and at night. 1.2c Use signs to highlight pedestrian entrances to businesses and multi-family buildings. 1.2e Consider street trees and other streetscape amenities when determining signage design and placement. Intent Statements: 1.3 Coordinate signage on buildings with multiple tenants. All of the signage is designed to be human scaled and at the pedestrian level. Signage will be used to highlight pedestrian entrances to ground floor businesses. Upper level tenants will have a wall sign tenant directory located directly next to the 16 th street entrance of the Sugar Building. The proposed CSP is an effort to coordinate signage on 3 buildings on one zone lot. The buildings have multiple

3 1.3a Coordinate sign locations, types and sizes to create consistency in business identification among multiple tenants. 1.3b Do not use projecting signs for tenants without direct street access. 1.3c Use a tenant panel or directory sign at first floor level to identify upper-floor tenants. 1.3d Do not use more than three sign types per tenant and/or building if possible. 1.4 Locate signage on a commercial building consistent with traditional signage patterns. 1.4a Locate signs at the pedestrian first-floor level of the building at or near the business entry. 1.4b Place a sign above or near the primary entrance to an establishment, preferably in a traditional location such as a historic sign band to avoid obscuring architectural details. 1.4c Integrate signage into the architectural design of new buildings, particularly sign bands and canopies at building entries. Use an existing sign bracket, if possible. 1.5 Plan signage to emphasize and reinforce a building s architecture. 1.5a Design signs to be in scale with and in proportion with a building s facade and its historic context. tenants at the street level, but also at the upper floors. Sign types are coordinated in type and size and no projecting signs are proposed for tenants without direct street access. Limiting language is provided for each individual sign type, for example, each tenant may only have one projecting sign or one wall sign transom, but not both. Limiting language clearly stating the maximum quantity allowed can be found on page 16, Tenant Sign Allowances. No more than 3 sign types per tenant will be allowed. The Sugar Building, Annex & SugarSquare is a mix of historic buildings with a new infill structure that s located within the Lower Downtown Historic District. All signs will be at the pedestrian first floor level. Signage will be located immediately adjacent to the tenant entrances, either above or beside it. Only window graphics can appear on storefront bays without entrances. The proposed signage will be integrated into the buildings architecture and will not obscure any architectural details. Proposed signage will be located where it is architecturally appropriateprojecting signs and/or wall signs transom will be adjacent to entrances for street level tenants. Window and door graphics on glass are appropriate for other storefront bays. Signage is in scale with the building s façade and fits in with the historic context. The wall signs transom may obscure the upper transom window areas; however, the storefront windows are not historic and have been changed over time. The wall sign transom type is also a

4 1.5b Do not remove, alter, cover or visually obstruct historic architectural features, such as windows, columns or decorative horizontal banding. secondary option for signage, not the preferred option. Only one (1) wall sign transom would be allowed per tenant, so as not to obscure all transom windows on the building. 1.5c Design signs to reinforce a building s articulation and rhythm, and architectural features. 1.6 Design signs to minimize visual clutter. 1.6a When planning signage for a new use, remove remnants of old signage that will not be reused, such as sign brackets and conduit, and appropriately patch any resulting damage or holes. 1.6b Maximize sign impact and minimize visual clutter by limiting the number of signs per use to three signs whenever possible. 1.6c Do not overpower a historic building or district with repetitive signs on a historic façade or site. 1.7 Create signs using high quality materials and finishes that complement the durable materials found on historic buildings. 1.7a Use permanent, durable materials such as metals, metal composites, and other high quality materials. 1.7b Do not use signs with plastic faces, although acrylic may be used for lettering and logos adhered to storefront windows and doors. 1.7c Create well-crafted signs of high quality construction with durable finishes. Sign allowances are generally defined on page 16. The applicant is proposing tenants have an option of three (3) different sign types for their sign program. They would be allowed either a projecting sign or a wall sign transom and window signage. One (1) wall sign tenant directory will be located at the 16 th Street entrance for upper level tenants in the Sugar Building and one (1) wall sign tenant ID is allowed on the Sugar Building Annex above the entrance on Wazee Street. The only allowed canopy sign is above the entrance to the SugarSquare on Wazee Street. Limiting language is provided for each sign type, for example each tenant may only have one wall sign transom or projecting sign per frontage except the SugarSquare tenant who may have either a projecting sign or canopy sign. All proposed projecting, wall, canopy, window and directory signage will be of high quality materials such as metal, metal composites, cast stone, varnished wood, etc. or other high quality durable man-made materials. Window and door graphics will be vinyl, painted or gilded. Wall sign - Tenant Directory will be of high quality materials.

5 1.7d Avoid using reflective materials 1.7e Use newly created materials if they meet the intent of the design guidelines in this chapter. Intent Statement 1.9 Locate and design illumination to minimize impacts on a historic building and its surrounding context. 1.9a Do not use an internally-lit plastic or glowing box. 1.9b Locate the power source for signs so that it is not visible on a building façade. 1.9c Do not install exposed conduit, races or junction boxes on the primary elevation of a building. 1.9d Do not cast light on adjacent properties or upper-floor residences. 1.9e Direct lighting toward a sign from an external shielded lamp if possible. 1.9f Use simply designed unobtrusive lamps, such as goose neck lamps or simple contemporary fixtures, for external lighting sources. 1.9g Use halo, LED or exposed neon for lighting signs when externally focused lighting is not possible. 1.9h Use a warm temperature of light, similar to daylight. 1.9i Ensure lighting type, design, size and numbers correspond with signage and building design. The proposed illumination types are outlined on page 19. Lighting must be either external, exposed neon, halo or edge illumination, or push through graphics with internal edge. Each sign type also lists appropriate illumination. The CSP identifies that window graphics are not typically illuminated but, in some instances, illuminated window signs, such as neon signage, may be appropriate (page 12) with review and approval of Landmark Preservation. Sign Types Standards & Window & Door Signs Window Signs Standards & Guidelines Window signage (page 12) is typically located at eye level on doors

6 6.1 Use storefront windows as supplemental signage while also maintaining transparency to and from a business. 6.1a Plan window signage to draw the pedestrian s eye into a business and to create additional interest. 6.1b Ensure that signage covers no more than 20 percent of a window area to ensure visual transparency in and out of shop windows. 6.1c Limit opaque and solid materials to no more than 10 percent of a window s area, and place appropriately to avoid blocking visibility in and out of a window. adjacent to the entrances or in the lower 20% of storefront windows. The SugarSquare building window signs may be positioned higher within the windowpane (instead of the recommended lower 20% area) since the front façade is entirely glass and placement should be located at the pedestrian eye level at the entrance. However, window signage is still limited to 20%, even on the SugarSquare. 6.1d Use painted, individual lettering or other transparent forms, rather than signs with solid backing or banding in most cases. 6.1e Use window signage to provide supplemental information on products, services and atmosphere, such as Fresh Oysters, Fine Dining and Fun Times, not available on other sign types. 6.1f Avoid repeating business wording and logos in every window when this information already exists on other signs. Door Signs 6.2 Apply simple business identification signage to entry doors. 6.2a Use door signage to identify business name, address, hours of operation and a possible logo if needed b Limit signage on doors to 4 square feet in area. 6.2c Use individual or printed lettering with clear backing applied to glass, rather than solid backed signs if possible. Window signage (page 12) will be located on tenant entry doors and limited to 4 square feet. Graphics are encouraged to be supplemental signage opportunities and of high quality nature. Neon graphics are allowed behind the smaller transom windows in line above the tenant entry doors however these placements are subject to Landmark Preservation review and approval.

7 Sign Types Standards & Projecting Signs 7.1 Design projecting signs to be threedimensional iconographic and vibrant images to enhance the pedestrian experience. 7.1a Create eye-catching and well-crafted threedimensional objects to portray a business persona or service with as few words as possible. 7.1b Keep wording and logos to a minimum on a three-dimensional object, but ensure any wording is readable. The sign should not be the main business signage for the use. 7.1c Propose projecting signs to be sculptural, three-dimensional objects which are either literal forms or abstracted interpretations. 7.1d Limit rectangular forms, cut-out logos or built-up layers of flat stock to the minority of the overall sign area. 7.1e Locate projecting shaped signs at or immediately above ground level, advertising uses with direct street level access (e.g., ground floor, garden level, etc.). 7.1f Design shaped signs so that the image, rather than words, are visible from the street or further down the block. 7.1g Abstracted, exaggerated or embellished interpretations of literal forms are preferred. 7.1h Design projecting signs to be a maximum of 12 square feet in surface area. 7.1i Limit shaped projecting signs to one per façade or business, except for corner buildings where visibility cannot be gained from both streets without an additional sign. 7.1j Use simple bracket designs that serve as a backdrop to hold the three-dimensional imagery. Standards & Guidelines Projecting signs (page 11) are encouraged to be eye-catching, well, crafted and three-dimensional objects. They will be limited to 12 square feet in area with limited wording and will be located at the ground level. A range of bracket designs is illustrated in the four sign examples on page 11. The intent is to provide each tenant with an individual look and steer away from standardized formats. The LDDRB will review both a tenant s proposed projecting sign design and the mounting bracket together.

8 Sign Types Standards & Wall Signs 3.1 Design wall signs to complement a historic building. 3.1a When using an existing sign band, provide space between the sign and the sign band border or edge to follow a traditional application. 3.1b When using an existing sign band, keep signage flush to the wall surface. 3.1c Do not design wall signs that project in front of adjacent architectural details, such as a wall band frame. 3.1d Do not use internally lit boxes. 3.1e Mount directory signs for upper-story tenant on wall next to entry providing access to these businesses. 3.1f Ensure signage is compatible with building architecture. 3.1g Limit wall signs to 1 sign per building façade, except for unusual circumstances as denoted in these Standards and Guidelines, with sign size and design in scale with building architecture and surrounding context. 3.1h Use wall signs in combination with a projecting sign or window signage. 3.1i Painted, individually lettered or solid backed wall signs made of one or two durable materials, such as aluminum, bronze, or high quality manmade materials, are generally appropriate. 3.1j When designing signs outside of sign bands, signs can have a little more depth, typically up to 3-1/2 inches. Deeper signs often have a clunky appearance and are not subordinate to the architectural details of the structure. Standards & Guidelines Three (3) types of wall signs are proposed: Wall Sign Transom (C1) (page 13) Wall Sign Tenant Directory (C2) (page 13) Wall Sign Tenant ID (C3) (page 14); All signs will be constructed of high quality materials. Tenant Wall signs are limited to one per tenant per frontage and can be located above the storefront bay or adjacent to the storefront bays. Wall Sign Transom (C1) is the secondary signage option, with the projecting sign being the preferred option for street level tenants in the Sugar Building and Annex. Wall Sign Tenant Directory (C2) is limited to the Sugar Building, 16 th Street entrance and is intended to be for upper level tenants in the Sugar Building. Tenant wall sign transom and tenant ID project from the wall surface no more than 3 ½ inches.

9 3.1k Consider a slightly arched wall sign that is not flush on the wall, extending up to 2 off the wall plane, on a large undecorated wall surface outside of a wall band. 3.1l Design directory signs as flush-mounted unlit or externally lit signs. Sign Types Standards & Canopy Signs Canopy Signs 4.1 Use canopy signs to accent entries. 4.1a Use a canopy where one existed historically or on warehouse and industrial buildings where one would be traditionally found. 4.1b Do not cover or remove architectural details when mounting signage to a historic canopy. 4.1c Use canopy signs as primary or secondary signage. 4.1d When adding signage to canopies, either keep signage contained within the outer limits of the canopy or mount above or below the canopy. Standards & Guidelines Canopy signage (page 15) is only proposed over the SugarSquare entrance. Canopy signage will be integral to the canopy design and will complement the Sugar Square façade. Only one (1) canopy sign is allowed for the main tenant of the SugarSquare. The SugarSquare tenant may utilize either the canopy sign or a projecting sign on the Annex nearest the SugarSquare entrance, but not both. Recommendation: Basis: APPROVAL The proposed Comprehensive Sign Plan generally meets the Design Guidelines for Signage. Suggested Motion: I move to recommend conditional approval of application #2018-CSP-005 for the comprehensive sign plan for th Street & 1544 Wazee Street, The Sugar Building, Annex & Sugar Square, as per Design Guidelines related to signage, presented testimony, submitted documentation and information provided in the staff report END
