Poor tenants will quickly degrade the design. Foot traffic between the parking structure and Downtown is a concern. A sky-bridge could be considered. The entrance might be more effective on the corner of Jefferson and Broadway. This corner should not have a secondary appearance.
Parking underground is encouraged.
The project could have also been developed one uniform project instead of the proposed presentation with individual storefronts. The internal corridor appears inadequate. This project is a tremendous opportunity for Downtown Redwood City. The applicant's presentation focused on how the project design evolved from the interior space to the exterior building design. The applicant should address what the project gives to the Downtown in terms of architecture.
