6:42 pm
related to cc project on the balance of the block. the next stage in the process for block 7 east is to do the same thing to consider and review schematic designs for the block. with that i would like to turn the presentation over to catherine rilely from the mission bay to present on this item and as well as the project sponsor and project architect. okay. if you can turn on the project or. >> good afternoon, i'm catherine reilly from mission bay. the plan before you is the schematic design for
6:43 pm
block 7 east for families for children receiving treatment primarily ucsf and you approved the transfer of this property to family house. after i give the overview, the architect will present the design of the building. if you have a chance, feel free to come down and look at the model. so this map basically gives you a location. we have block 7 west located here bounded by third street to the east, mission bay blvd north to the south, china basin street to the north and then there is a private public walkway that will be between this project and the block seven, the related cc units project to the west. it's located about 5-6 blocks from the new hospital which is under construction here. and will include 80 guest room
6:44 pm
suites office and activity space, parking spaces and seven more than is required as well as four bicycle racks with additional space with about eight bicycles. there will be private open space on the podium and other residential amenities to serve the residents. the project is located centrally to transit and open space. 22 line will run from 26th street up and loop the block in front of the building and connect with 16 street bart station. the t line runs along third street and there is a station about a block 1/2 to the north and then there is also a station for the t line directly in front of the hospital and there is an entrance to the hospital in front of that station. the cal trains station is a few blocks to the north and several bus lines to that area as well. mission
6:45 pm
bay runs their own shuttle and house is working with ucsf to have parking next to the hospital. ucsf has 129 parking spaces now and will increase to about 4,000 in the future and this is a similar arrangement to what they have currently. the current housing locations don't have parking for families and they have worked with families for other outside locations and looking for the shuttle system to connect between the two. also by the time the projects open the children's park about a block 1/2 away will be completed and there is project is directly across from the commons park. at this time i would like to turn it over to richard stacey from stacy architects and he'll review the design of the building.
6:46 pm
>> good afternoon, commissioners, i'm richard stacy architects. the lead architects for family house. if you could switch to that overhead. on behalf of family house i want to express how pleased we are today to be presenting the schematic design for the new building in mission bay. with the new ucsf hospital scheduled to open about a year from now family house is looking to open the doors as soon as possible. as catherine just reviewed family house is located at the intersection right in the heart of mission bay. the site is inappropriately located where the ucsf campus meets the new residential neighborhood. on this site plan which by the
6:47 pm
way, has been oriented with north to the left you can see the site for it's conditions. katherine actually reviewed those. the main entrance to the family house will be facing mission bay commons while the parking entrance is at the other end of the building of china basin street. moving to the typical upper floors you can see how it's organized. an arranged in two room l shapes that hug the streets corners. each group of 10 rooms forms a mini community with their own common area and those include kitchen dining and living and play areas. while the guest rooms face outwards toward the city, the primary common areas are centrally located in the
6:48 pm
interior corners of the l shapes where they along with the main hallways have used the landscape courtyard. additionally two other areas have strategic locations. at the intersection of third and mission bay commons, the east floor provides views up and down the commons and forms architectural featurement at the other end of the building, an office and computer room provide a secondary feature at china basin and third. down on the ground floor, the building kors most -- covers most of the sight around the perimeter extending along third street with parking and utility spaces are tucked midline on the walkway. at the mission bay commons in, the main entrance leads to a
6:49 pm
large reception in the area with waiting and meeting rooms indicated in redch . from there the grand stage leads to the corridor and in yellow extends to the third street. the courtyard level at the second floor is similar and typical to the upper floors. here the ground connections to the foyer team and faces the courtyard. turning to the street elevations you can see a clear differentiation between the more solid upper floors and the more open and ground floor along third street. the combination of color panels, clear and translucent glass and provides corners on the
6:50 pm
building. on the upper floors, the ritdz -- rhythm of the guest windows and deep window seat areas. at the main corridor special living room is highlighted by a metal sunscreen. signature orange color. along the mid-block pedestrian walkway the building opens up to the landscape courtyard along the mid-block walkway. alternating areas of green panels hides the stairs and parking garage walls. planted with vines, these screens will visually connect the landscape and courtyard with the mid-block walkway.
6:51 pm
at the upper floor the primary material is sliding. this will clad the projecting base in the recessed areas. providing transparency alternate metal panels that hide utilities and garage areas. the primary building corner will act as a skrim will provide a dramatic effect both during the day and when back will -- lit at night. i want to now turf -- turn to the landscape design. the ground floor landscape provides a setback for the common corridors. a special paving planting and benches to provide the seating at the building entrance opposite the park. while the other street side of the building raised in sunken planters provides
6:52 pm
storm water management. the building is occasionally recessed for mini gardens. at the court level the courtyard is a large infinity loop for guest of all ages to interact and experience the space. one end of the north loop is a special area and the southern loop for barbecues and gathering, the smaller loop for seating areas. last thing i want to mention several features the family house hopes to have. one is a sun shade on the left which is a structure at the seating area adjacent to the main entrance. on the right, the second floor on a sculptural
6:53 pm
tunnel would combined with enhanced experience with the courtyard. that concludes our presentation. i would like to acknowledge our team of architects today. please stand up and be recognized. thanks, everyone. i would be happy to answer any questions. >> thank you richard. the blocks design was presenting to the mission bay cuc meeting and they were supportive over all for the projects. the suggestion was how to increase security in the building and along the edges. the responsibilities of the design is to make sure to locate
6:54 pm
parking further from the entrance of the garage and paving along the garage entrance to help identify the pedestrians and charissa like to be careful as they cross over the sidewalk the developer family house will comply with the agencies contracts and the policies and will work directly with george bridges throughout this process. to date they have achieved 48 percent small business enterprise profession rate for professional consultant that is 48 percent of assistance f be and 14 on minority and 13 percent women owned businesses. to avoid double counting, we have assigned both in one category or the other. this development the developer is committed to an acquiring the goals to
6:55 pm
payment of the prevailing wages and work force hiring goal. in concl cl ugs -- the conclusion the staff recommends the findings for this project and we conclude going forward for the design review. this concludes staff presentation and would like to appreciate the work that was done by staff and recognize that andrea morgan and the rest of the house is here and available to answer any questions. >> thank you. any comments on this item? >> one speaker card. corrin woods. >> good afternoon, i chair the mission bay advisory committee. we are very excited to have this project move
6:56 pm
forward and excited to have this family house become part of our community and we encourage you to support it. >> thank you. no further speaker cards? >> questions, comments from fellow commissioners on this item? >> i just want to know that there is another project for the city before? >> yes. we've done an existing project that includes two buildings. one is right across from the hospital and the other one is a few blocks away from the inner sunset. >> what is the amount, how much is the value of this project? >> this current project? >> yeah. >> i'm going to invite alexandria to answer that question. >> good afternoon commissioners. i'm loshgen county. the estimate project is $40.5 million. just over
6:57 pm
40 million. >> thank you. commissioner ellington? >> can you turn on the mic. >> sorry, i forgot to press the button. you talk about the overall construction on the timeline and the next steps after assuming we approve this. >> i'm going to talk about the next step and talk about the phasing. once you approve the design today we would work with family house going forward to do design development and construction drawing and with staff approval then they would do construction. assuming they don't change anything that various -- varies from the design approved today and still related to the project,
6:58 pm
some technical stuff to fully implement the mpa. but from a design standpoint, this would be the one time you would see them. i will turn it to lark for timing. >> we anticipate mobilizing on-site in july and start august and occupy the building in december 2015. >> there is 80 units? >> there are 80 units. there -- three different bedroom types. there are suites to accommodate families and single room. there are 42
6:59 pm
parking spaces on site. >> if it's all for the unit where do they park? >> commissioners, i'm alexandra morgan director of family house. we've secured an agreement with ucsf to use a number of parking spaces as needed for families that are not able to park at family house. as i understand there will be two parking garages that are owned by ucsf and our families will be able to park there for free. >> okay. >> one last question? >> commissioner ellington? >> you cut me off. >> i didn't say anything. >> so the entrance, the main entrance to the building is on china basin? okay. >> it's on mission bay north boulevard on mission bay and commons.
7:00 pm
>> is there an entry? you can see through the windows? >> yes, there is quite a bit of glass on third street. you will be able to see in the building but there is no entrance. third street wasn't an appropriate place for an entrance. there is no street parking and no place to drop someone off. it's better on mission boulevard. >> okay. thank you. >> commissioner ellington if you look at the model there, the long side, that's third street. >> i know which side third street is. i didn't know which side this was. >> mission bay blvd is in front of us and china bay is behind. >> thank you. >> you're welcome. >> just a couple questions. so i know in the memo that we all received there are some caveats to approvals that might have to happen to keep lo
