we want to tear down the existing north wall and rebuild it as part of the new adjacent parking garage, leaving no gap in between but integrating the two
( Read more... )
why can't the garage and the building share a wall, then cantilever 3' of the garage to the building, leaving a little bit (inches?) for expansions and such? Then all you have to do is take out spaces for access to the building from the garage.
because we need the courtyard in between them... for one, to bring natural light to the first four floors of the office building (that the garage would close off it it were adjoined) and secondly because it's providing pedestrian access through the site to the corner of College and University from the asu dorms nearby and the asu parking garage further past
and thirdly because our civil engineers are going to kill us if we do anything that drastic this late in the game....right after we'd kill ourselves
oh and fourthly (?) because we have to run some new utility lines in between the buildings and we can't have foundations on top pf them...
Oh, I thought the buildings were to be adjoined (as in joined). So, courtyard, natural light, utilities, people . . . messed up. I say there should be a way around the dripline problem with the trees, that seems to me to be the place that can take the ass-raping best. I really wish I could see all that stuff. Damn you're one lucky mofo.
