Typical types of shared support spaces are: conference rooms (12 people), restrooms (per code),
kitchenettes, 3 workshops (general and craft specific) and (in our case) a small lecture hall (100
people) for conferences. You are required to provide a commercial space similar to the Storefront
for Art and Architecture in NYC. The three story building can be entirely renovated and spaces can be built upwards as long as the
extension stays within 20 feet above the current parapet line and does not increase the total square
footage of the existing building by more than 15%. Parking and site planning need to be configured
Examples of existing Creative Industry models to look at: on two neighboring lots along Damen Avenue and along North Avenue, which we assume are, with
the flat Iron building, part of a Planned Development allowing a higher FAR for the project.
