LEED Description 2400 Market Street LEED Description 2400 market is striving to achieve the prestigious LEED Gold certification by a variety of active and passive measures. Yet, this project is sustainable beyond its LEED Certification. This is strongly represented by the fact that this project is reusing an existing building and further building on top of it. The strategic location of the project in the city of Philadelphia, right across the Schuylkill River and 30th street station further add to this premise. Its convenient location and easy access by foot and public transport significantly contribute to reducing vehicular miles travelled. The building is designed to be extremely energy efficient by means of a high performing thermal envelope. Water saving fixtures and Xeriscaping will help reducing the potable water consumed on the site significantly. Green roofs will increase landscaped areas, collect water and reduce heat gain. The project team does not just want to design habitable spaces but is going a step further to design spaces that enhance occupant comfort and health. Large windows allow ample sunlight and spectacular views in all directions. Additionally, the materials used in the building will be carefully chosen to include more low-emitting materials. Beyond what’s inside the building, we are also dedicated to connecting the building to its immediate community. We are proposing dynamic open spaces that will attract the masses and further rejuvenate the Schuylkill banks.

COMPLETE STREETS HANDBOOK CHECKLIST Philadelphia City Planning Commission

1

INSTRUCTIONS This Checklist is an implementation tool of the Philadelphia Complete Streets Handbook (the “Handbook”) and enables City engineers and planners to review projects for their compliance with the Handbook’s policies. The handbook provides design guidance and does not supersede or replace language, standards or policies established in the City Code, City Plan, or Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).

The Philadelphia City Planning Commission receives this Checklist as a function of its Civic Design Review (CDR) process. This checklist is used to document how project applicants considered and accommodated the needs of all users of city streets and sidewalks during the planning and/or design of projects affecting public rights-of-way. Departmental reviewers will use this checklist to confirm that submitted designs incorporate complete streets considerations (see §11-901 of The Philadelphia Code). Applicants for projects that require Civic Design Review shall complete this checklist and attach it to plans submitted to the Philadelphia City Planning Commission for review, along with an electronic version.

The Handbook and the checklist can be accessed at http://www.phila.gov/CityPlanning/projectreviews/Pages/CivicDesignReview.aspx

INSTRUCTIONS (continued) APPLICANTS SHOULD MAKE SURE TO COMPLY WITH THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS:

� This checklist is designed to be filled out electronically in Microsoft Word format. Please submit the Word version of the checklist. Text fields will expand automatically as you type.

� All plans submitted for review must clearly dimension the widths of the Furnishing, Walking, and Building Zones (as defined in Section 1 of the Handbook). “High Priority” Complete Streets treatments (identified in Table 1 and subsequent sections of the Handbook) should be identified and dimensioned on plans.

� All plans submitted for review must clearly identify and site all street furniture, including but not limited to bus shelters, street signs and hydrants.

� Any project that calls for the development and installation of medians, bio-swales and other such features in the right-of-way may require a maintenance agreement with the Streets Department.

� ADA curb-ramp designs must be submitted to Streets Department for review

� Any project that significantly changes the curb line may require a City Plan Action. The City Plan Action Application is available at http://www.philadelphiastreets.com/survey-and-design-bureau/city-plans-unit . An application to the Streets Department for a City Plan Action is required when a project plan proposes the:

o Placing of a new street;o Removal of an existing street;o Changes to roadway grades, curb lines, or widths; oro Placing or striking a city utility right-of-way.

INSTRUCTIONS This Checklist is an implementation tool of the Philadelphia Complete Streets Handbook (the “Handbook”) and enables City engineers and planners to review projects for their compliance with the Handbook’s policies. The handbook provides design guidance and does not supersede or replace language, standards or policies established in the City Code, City Plan, or Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).

The Philadelphia City Planning Commission receives this Checklist as a function of its Civic Design Review (CDR) process. This checklist is used to document how project applicants considered and accommodated the needs of all users of city streets and sidewalks during the planning and/or design of projects affecting public rights-of-way. Departmental reviewers will use this checklist to confirm that submitted designs incorporate complete streets considerations (see §11-901 of The Philadelphia Code). Applicants for projects that require Civic Design Review shall complete this checklist and attach it to plans submitted to the Philadelphia City Planning Commission for review, along with an electronic version.

The Handbook and the checklist can be accessed at http://www.phila.gov/CityPlanning/projectreviews/Pages/CivicDesignReview.aspx

INSTRUCTIONS (continued) APPLICANTS SHOULD MAKE SURE TO COMPLY WITH THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS:

This checklist is designed to be filled out electronically in Microsoft Word format. Please submit the Word version of the checklist. Text fields will expand automatically as you type.

All plans submitted for review must clearly dimension the widths of the Furnishing, Walking, and Building Zones (as defined in Section 1 of the Handbook). “High Priority” Complete Streets treatments (identified in Table 1 and subsequent sections of the Handbook) should be identified and dimensioned on plans.

All plans submitted for review must clearly identify and site all street furniture, including but not limited to bus shelters, street signs and hydrants.

Any project that calls for the development and installation of medians, bio-swales and other such features in the right-of-way may require a maintenance agreement with the Streets Department.

ADA curb-ramp designs must be submitted to Streets Department for review

Any project that significantly changes the curb line may require a City Plan Action. The City Plan Action Application is available at http://www.philadelphiastreets.com/survey-and-design-bureau/city-plans-unit . An application to the Streets Department for a City Plan Action is required when a project plan proposes the:

o Placing of a new street; o Removal of an existing street; o Changes to roadway grades, curb lines, or widths; or o Placing or striking a city utility right-of-way.

Complete Streets Review Submission Requirement*:

• EXISTING CONDITIONS SITE PLAN, should be at an identified standard engineering scale o FULLY DIMENSIONED o CURB CUTS/DRIVEWAYS/LAYBY LANES o TREE PITS/LANDSCAPING

o BICYCLE RACKS/STATIONS/STORAGE AREAS o TRANSIT SHELTERS/STAIRWAYS

• PROPOSED CONDITIONS SITE PLAN, should be at an identified standard engineering scale

o FULLY DIMENSIONED, INCLUDING DELINEATION OF WALKING, FURNISHING, AND BUILDING ZONES AND PINCH POINTS

o PROPOSED CURB CUTS/DRIVEWAYS/LAYBY LANES

o PROPOSED TREE PITS/LANDSCAPING o BICYCLE RACKS/STATIONS/STORAGE AREAS o TRANSIT SHELTERS/STAIRWAYS

*APPLICANTS PLEASE NOTE: ONLY FULL-SIZE, READABLE SITE PLANS WILL BE ACCEPTED. ADDITIONAL PLANS MAY BE REQUIRED AND WILL BE REQUESTED IF NECESSARY
