Design & Construction Highlights

Architectural Layout

• Two Core Tenant Suites:
  Each suite is designed as a fully independent commercial space with separate mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems.
• Central Core:
  A shared service corridor with mechanical rooms, electrical panels, and ADA-compliant restrooms for efficiency and maintenance access.
• Flexible Shell Space:
  The open structural layout allows for future interior partitions and tenant-specific build-outs without structural modifications.
• Facade Design:
  A symmetrical exterior with large storefront glazing, vertical architectural reveals, and modern color bands that enhance visibility from the main roadway.
• Interior Heights:
  14’-0” clear ceilings with concealed mechanical systems in drop zones to accommodate tenant HVAC and lighting preferences.

Structural & Foundation Design

• Slab-on-grade construction using 4,000 PSI concrete with reinforced footings designed per the 2023 Florida Building Code (FBC).
• CMU perimeter walls with continuous tie beams, lintels, and hurricane-rated anchor connections.
• Steel beam and column framing at entry storefronts to allow for open façade spans.
• Roof assembly with structural trusses, insulation, and white TPO roofing for energy efficiency.
• Structural design accounted for ASCE 7-16 wind load provisions and 140 mph Exposure C wind conditions.

Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing (MEP)

• Mechanical:
  Designed for split-system air conditioning with rooftop unit options and curb supports integrated into truss design.
• Electrical:
  Individual service panels for each tenant space; underground conduits stubbed for future metering per NEC 2023.
  Lighting design includes wall-mounted LED fixtures and soffit downlights for enhanced nighttime appearance.
• Plumbing:
  Restroom rough-ins and water lines extended to suite partitions for ease of future tenant connections.
  Cleanouts, vents, and water hammer arrestors per Florida Plumbing Code 2023.

Civil Coordination

• Site layout coordinated with The Crossings’ overall grading and drainage system.
• Front sidewalk alignment and ADA ramps tied into the master site’s pedestrian system.
• Integration with shared parking and landscape buffers to create continuity between adjacent buildings.
• Outfall design coordinated with the master stormwater pond system for compliance with local water management requirements.

Exterior & Façade Design

• Material Palette:
  • Neutral off-white stucco finish with bronze and warm wood-tone accent bands.
  • Aluminum storefront framing with impact-rated glazing.
  • Horizontal shadow lines and parapet detailing to define each tenant bay.
• Lighting & Signage:
  Concealed LED uplighting and dedicated signage panels centered above each tenant entry for balanced branding.
• Landscaping:
  Palm trees, accent shrubs, and low-maintenance perimeter plantings align with the Florida coastal aesthetic.
• Parking & Access:
  Shared parking area with direct access from the main driveway, including ADA stalls and accessible routes.
