STUDY 1 is a representation of what basically maximizing the FAR and residential component of the site. This isn’t intended to represent the look and feel the actual building yet but more to visually distinguish between the gallery/studio/retail side of things and the housing side of things.

This option shows a 5 floor building with 105 housing units of various sizes from studios all the way to townhomes.

The gallery/studio on the corner of Montegut St and Royal St is 11,550 sf and is approx 20’ tall. The retail on the corner of Montegut St and Dauphine St is about 7000sf.

This massing shows the housing as a courtyard shape but it could take other forms and achieve similar square footages. The building terraces back similar to the new building on Dauphine and Montegut so that we can get to the maximium building height of 55’ (5 floors) without exceeding the maximum SF allowed under the 2.5 FAR which is 87,715sf.
