REQUIREMENTS FROM THE COMMUNITY AS SUMMARIZED BY ALDERMAN REILLY ON..07. Provide more usable, contiguous & active open green space that will serve as a real public benefit to the surrounding neighborhood;. Eliminate the grand staircase & associated zigzag pedestrian path and replace it with a more subtle, meandering path - to allow for the addition of usable green space & reduction of hardscape/pedestrian infrastructure;. Relocate the proposed upper-level Harbor Drive pedestrian access point to the new open green space to improve sight-lines: moving it further north on Harbor & away from the Parkshore s garage and driveway egress; MODIFICATIONS IMPLEMENTED BY THE DEVELOPER TO ADDRESS THE COMMUNITY REQUIREMENTS: MORE USABLE, CONTIGUOUS & ACTIVE OPEN GREEN SPACE PROVIDED GRAND STAIRCASE ELIMINATED; ZIGZAG PATH REPLACED WITH A MORE SUBTLE, MEANDERING PATH; MORE USABLE GREEN SPACE PROVIDED AND HARDSCAPE/ PEDESTRIAN INFRASTRUCTURE REDUCED 4. Address security concerns (especially at the lower access road level) by proposing a staffed guard station on the lower level to monitor pedestrian traffic and activity - as well as regular security patrols throughout the site; 5. Better define solutions ensuring there are no conflicts between garage access, loading and the proposed pedestrian and bicycle traffic that would occur at the lower level access road that leads toward the Lakefront; 6. Install fencing between the lower Lake Shore Drive public right-of-way and the property line of sites I, J, K & L - while creating one centralized access portal between Magellan site & Lakefront (similar to the required improvements Wanda Vista will make to Riverwalk access at Field Drive); 7. Properly secure this lower-level Lakefront access portal with the installation of way-finding signage, improved lighting and surveillance cameras that can tie-in to the City s OEMC security camera network; and 8. Reassess the positioning of towers on the podium and make a greater effort to ensure distances between newly proposed towers and existing buildings are more consistent with setbacks that currently govern the site. 4 5 6 7 8 UPPER LEVEL HARBOR DRIVE PEDESTRIAN ACCESS MOVED FURTHER NORTH GUARD STATION PROVIDED AT LOWER LEVEL BUFFER INTRODUCED TO SEPARATE GARAGE ACCESS AND LOADING FROM PEDESTRIAN AND BICYCLE TRAFFIC FENCING PROVIDED TO CREATE ONE CENTRALIZED ACCESS PORTAL PORTAL SECURED WITH NEW LIGHTING, SECURITY CAMERAS AND GUARD STATION BUILDING J MOVED TO PROVIDE 00 SEPARATION TO THE SOUTH AS PROVIDED FOR IN THE MASTER PLAN Pg of 4
