<br /> Architectural Design Common Elements
<br /> The following common architectural design elements will establish a consistent general quality
<br /> and character throughout the Waterfront Place Central. District specific and building types
<br /> specific architectural design elements, found in this section will give each building a distinct
<br /> quality that enhances a district's uniqueness.
<br /> Architectural Ground Floor,Middle, Top-
<br /> To ensure that buildings within Waterfront Place Central display the greatest amount of visual
<br /> interest possible, the following standards will apply to buildings with three or more stories.
<br /> • Ground Floor — Most buildings should have a distinct "base” at the ground level that
<br /> emphasizes the edge of the streetscape. A base shall be defined through articulation of a
<br /> district material or through a change in color or texture. The street level should have the
<br /> richest collection of materials to create visual and textural complexity and interest at eye
<br /> level. On masonry buildings, a granite or brick (or masonry cladding) in some form on
<br /> walls, pilasters, or a plinth is strongly encouraged. Ground floor treatments must also
<br /> include one or more of the following: windows, details, canopies, stoops, bays,
<br /> overhangs, artwork, masonry strips, and/or cornice lines.
<br /> • Building Middle—The mid-section of a multistory building should include elements such
<br /> as windows, balconies, and in some cases may include signage. Upper floors shall be
<br /> articulated both vertically and horizontally at street and main entry elevations. Vertically,
<br /> the floor height will be expressed through a band of color or material. Horizontally, a
<br /> rhythm of materials, windows, or structure must be organized and expressed to
