The existing facilityis a 59,205 sq ft building footprint interactive science leamingcenter and offices <br />with 92 parking spaces on site. The prq~osed Phase II project is a three stay expansion of the main <br />building with a lar~ format theater (IblAX t~,pe) with digital displaydome, additional exhibit areas <br />that double as classroom facilities, expanded diningand retail areas, and a parking structure and <br />connecting bridge at Broadway and bIain Place Drive. The project would include the following: 1) a <br />275 seat theater, 2) an office-warehouse addition- 14,600 (gross) sq fl, attached tothe parking <br />structure, and 3) appraximately 38,000 (gross) sq ft of corridor/exhibit/classrcom/theater sta~ng area <br />space. Classrooms/conference areas are included in the exhibit space and ~11 be used for either <br />exhibits and/or demonstrations attached topermanent or traveling exhibits, as the need arises. <br /> <br />Building heights are as follows: l)theater/exhibit structureisprcposedtobe 106 feet, and2)the <br />parking structure is proposed to be a maximum of 27 feet with the office component at 40 feet. The <br />parking structure is proposed to include 253 spaces. Surface parking at the primary site includes nine <br />spaces. On-site bus parking and bus turnaround space are provided in front of the main entrance. <br /> <br />A li~hted bridge to accommodate vehicle traffic as ~ell as pedestrians is proposed to cross Santia~ <br />Creek, connecting the primary access drive from Main Street to the parking structure on a currently <br />vacant property at Broadway and Main Place Dri',e. Provisions for a bike path connecting the existing <br />bike path along Santiago Creek to a planned undercrossing of the I-5 Freeway are included in project <br />design. No disturbance to Santiago Creek is proposed, aa the brid~ will be constructed prior to being <br />placed over the creek and will be supported from the creek banks, with no need for pillars. Phase II <br />also includes finishing the cladding on the unfinished sides of the cube icon. <br /> <br />The proposed project is described as Phase I of the DSC and is detailed in Table A, belay. A revised <br />site plan for the project has been prepared and subnitted with the applicatims on file xvith the <br />Planning and Development Agency (Exhibit 1). The above components of the plan are defined <br />hereinafter as the Project. <br /> <br />Table A: Phase II Expansion: Tectonic Cube Concept Square Footage <br /> <br /> FIRS T FL 0 OR <br />LOBBY 1790 S.F. <br />TICKETS 170 S.F. <br />30RRIDOR 1700 S.F. <br />5XHIBITS 5480 S.F. <br />~PECIAL EXHIBITS 570( S.F. <br />PANTRY 30C 5.F. <br />STORAGE 16£ 5.F. <br />SERVICE CORR. 230C 5.F. <br />STAIR 272 ~..F. <br />OFFICE 75 $.F. <br />ELECT. l~\'I. 225 S.F. <br />SU"BTOTAL INTERIOR 18172S.F. <br />MISC.
