1. Height of rooftop towers must be provided. If they are more than 14 ft above the floor of the
fourth floor, size must also be provided.
12/12 APPLICANT RESPONSE: The height of rooftop mechanical equipment is noted on the Solar
Zone and Rooftop Visibility exhibits.
12/20 UPDATED COMMENT: Awaiting information on rooftop tower height.
1/12 APPLICANT RESPONSE: Dimensions added to top of ‘high parapet’ (tower element) on
sheets A01, A11, & A24
1/20 UPDATED COMMENT: These elements project more than 14-ft above the floor of the
fourth floor and are therefore limited to 20% of the floor area of the fourth floor. What is their
size?
For Buildings B1, B2, & B3, a high parapet is proposed at the building corners to create visual
interest and a varying roofline. No rooftop uses are proposed. While mechanical equipment
will be located on the rooftop, it is not located within the ‘enclosure’ framed by the high
parapet.
The height of the high parapets is more than 14 feet above the finish floor elevation of the
fourth (uppermost) story in each building. Buildings in the T4 district are limited to a maximum
of 5 stories. Buildings in the T5 district are limited to a maximum of 6 stories. If the high
parapets were considered an additional story on each building, the total number of stories
would remain at or below the maximum allowable.
The images below show the high parapets proposed for each building. The high parapets frame
the corner of each building, but do not create an enclosed, or partially enclosed, feature for a
rooftop use.
Building B1
4th floor area = 23,180 sf
Area behind parapets =1,315 sf or 5.7% of 4th story
Building B2
4th floor area = 20,640 sf
Area behind parapets = 1,160 sf or 5.6% of 4th story
Building B3
4th floor = 6,600 sf
Area behind parapets = 1,210 sf or 18.3% of 4th story
