Linda Ripley asked me to forward this to you all. Attached is our redesign
of the entry area for One Library Park at 20 scale. Please contact Linda

Marc,
The "walk by" sidewalk is reduced to 9' to allow a wider more generous sense
of entry at the main entrance to the building located approximately 3'
above. This entry needs to allow for pedestrians passing in both directions
plus coming into and out of the building.
In the past when we have worked in the downtown area designing architectural
elements that encroach into the public row such as steps, walls, railings,
pots, etc... the rule of thumb was to provide at least 7' of unobstructed
walk for the pedestrian to pass. We believe having 9' in an area with a
relatively low pedestrian volume is sufficient.
The bike rack shown was intended to be one like has been used in other
downtown locations where bikes are parked parallel to the pipe railing. On
giving it more thought, we agree that the bicycle parking should probably
move to another location. We will follow up with a proposed alternative for
bike parking. Thanks for the feedback.

Hi Linda,
We've been discussing the redesign to some extent but haven't gotten full
input from all the folks internal yet. In talking with some, for our own
information, we're wondering what's driving the design aspect to have the
wider walkway in front of the main entry such that 9' is maintained instead
of the 12713'? This present configuration combined with the proximity and
alignment of the detached sidewalk section and the bike rack location (which
likely has some LUC concerns regarding clearance and impeding of pedestrian
flow [3.2.2(C)(4)(b)&(c)]) has raised some concerns.
Sheri will be coordinating further discussion internally with myself being
out next week, though I'll look to keep track of the discussion online.
Thanks,
Marc
