Version 1 would also make the most sense because down the road the building may likely be converted from apartments to condos, in which case balconies will be a plus for resale value.Silvermannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1923860625279115418.post-46871759382952345202013-01-24T10:13:44.520-08:002013-01-24T10:13:44.520-08:00Nice to some movement on the downtown residential....Nice to some movement on the downtown residential. A few tidbits, Carlysle is moving forward and should receive Building Permit this yeat if all goes as planned. FAA and Planning dictate height limits in these areas, however, the City's High-rise design guidelines brings up a good point about having a consistent height limit with a few accent buildings that pop the ht. that is the desired approach to San Jose...that may change in the future, but it's worth thinking about.

Garage floors are same as Version 2. 3 floors above ground, 3 floors below ground, total of 6 floors = 404 stalls. <br /><br />3. That's correct. Looking from their drawing on their Site Permit Application it looks like 3 unit on the office building side, per floor. The two end units would be wraparound with views to the south and north. The middle unit will have the issue you described. The incentive for those units' residents will be that they will have quick access to the 16th floor open-air terrace.<br /><br />4. You can check the Site Permit Application, so far I only see one picture showing the side profile of the building from San Pedro street viewpoint, along with basic measurements. You can download the permit here: http://www.sanjoseca.gov/DocumentCenter/View/10538<br /><br />5. C2K Architecture is the architect.

On version 2 they are smartly placed opposite the office building across the San Pedro st. On version 3 floors 1 - 5 do not seem to contain parking, which is odd.<br /><br />3. On version 3 there will be units facing the office building very close to the windows. Those units will be very hard to sell<br /><br />4. More importantly it would be interesting to look at the building schematics. Are they ready?<br /><br />5.

Note how it goes over the top of the building. LED is cheap nowaday, so they should definitely incorporate that.<br /><br />Anon #2, I agree with you in that it's not as good looking as Version 1, but it's a major improvement over Version 2 (which I think was just a lazy-butt design, I mean a blue box, how creative is THAT?)<br /><br />We can take the following:<br />1) Increase from 285 units to 315.<br />2) Increase from 21-story to 23-story. You can definitely see this in Version 2 and Version 3 by looking at the height in relation to the "step stool" building next door.<br />3) Definite increase in height from 216 ft to 230-240 ft.<br />4) Mondrian theme is back! That's what I love about the original! Offset windows, like Josh mentioned.<br />5) Vertical full-height accent lighting on the Market Street side. PLEASE let it be actual lighting!!!<br />6) A deep half-height groove on the Santa Clara Street side. It adds character. But the more I look at it, the more it looks as if it's not a groove but that particular section of the wall of the building actually juts out! That would be cool if that is true! That would be good texturing, sorta 3D-ish on the Santa Clara facade.<br /><br />I think in all it's quite a bit of improvement. I'm happy with this design :)Bobnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1923860625279115418.post-77440043256880098842013-01-22T09:05:25.460-08:002013-01-22T09:05:25.460-08:00I guess version 1 is out because that would only m...I guess version 1 is out because that would only make sense for condos?
