Proposed Project
This Project is located in the Priority 1 Zone in which the City is encouraging
commercial owners to upgrade and improve the overall appearance of the
commercial district. This is the first application for any grant by this owner. The
goal of the Project is to reinvigorate an outdated multi-tenant commercial site by
improving and modernizing essentially the entire exterior façade and monument
sign. The current exterior façade consists solely of EIFS/stucco and is in disrepair,
very outdated and “tired” looking, especially when viewed in contrast to the new
apartment complex across the street and the concept plan for a new senior
development proposed on an adjacent parcel. Given the proximity to these new
construction projects, a licensed architect was retained specifically to work on the
creative design of the improvements in order to ensure that our goals of creating a
complementary yet cost-effective design that would attract a desired tenant mix to
the immediate area. The site will be anchored by a Dunkin’ Baskin Robbins
coffee/ice cream shop. Improvements include:
1. Removal of outdated awning and signs.
2. Masonry and other repairs to and restoration of the existing exterior finishes,
including adding new exterior design features using lap siding around the
storefronts and existing windows and doors.
3. Replacements and additions of several new storefronts, windows and doors.
4. Repair, restoration and modernization of the existing monument sign consistent
with others in the commercial district.
5. New exterior building and accent lighting.
6. Addition of new a dumpster enclosure for use by all tenants (currently there is
no enclosure on site).
7. Removing diseased, damaged trees, replacing old shrubbery bed and adding
new landscaping along 80th Street
