THE RESTAURANT IS CURRENTLY VACANT.

THE DEVELOPER IS DILIGENTLY LOOKING FOR A NEW USER FOR THAT SPACE.

IN THE MEANTIME, HE WOULD ALSO LIKE TO DEVELOP THE EMPTY PARCEL OF LAND FOR A NEW 6000 SQUARE FOOT RETAIL SHOPPING CENTER.

FOR THE FOR RETAIL AND POSSIBLE RESTAURANT USES.

ON THE SCREEN HERE YOU CAN SEE THE LOCATION OF THE PROPERTY AND THE VACANT AREA THAT HE WOULD LIKE TO DEVELOP.

HERE'S A SITE PLAN SHOWING THE LOCATION OF THE EXISTING RESTAURANT THAT'S CURRENTLY THERE.

NOW, ALL THE PERIMETER PARKING DRIVE ACCESS TO 114 AND THE LOCATION OF THE NEW 6000 SQUARE FOOT BUILDING.

HERE'S A FLOOR POTENTIAL FLOOR PLAN WE COULD HAVE UP TO FOUR SUITES, TWO SUITES, THREE SUITES OR ONE LARGE RETAIL AREA. NEGOTIATIONS WITH LEASES ARE STILL ONGOING AT THIS TIME.

THIS IS A RENDERING SHOWING THE FRONT ELEVATION.

THIS WOULD BE THE ELEVATION FACING 114.

YOU CAN SEE WE HAVE THE VERTICAL ARTICULATION AS REQUIRED BY THE CITY.

STUCK THREE STEPS STUCCO FOR THE MATERIAL WITH THE STONE VENEER AND OF COURSE THE STOREFRONT, THE GLASS STOREFRONT.

THIS WOULD BE THE BACK ELEVATION FACING THE BACK OF THE PARKING LOT, AND THE TWO SIDE ELEVATIONS FACING THE ADJACENT PROPERTY AND THE EXISTING RESTAURANT.

I'M HERE TO PRESENT TO YOU OUR REQUEST FOR CHANGES FOR OUR EXTERIOR OF OUR HOTEL.

CURRENTLY, IT IS NAMED THE SOUTHLAKE HOTEL WITH THE MARRIOTT FAMILY.

AND FINALLY, IT WILL TRANSITION TO THE ELMORE HOTEL BY MARRIOTT.

A TRIBUTE COLLECTION LIFESTYLE HOTEL.

WE WANTED TO JUST PROVIDE A LITTLE BIT OF A GLIMPSE FOR THE EXISTING AND THE FUTURE RENDERINGS FOR THE INTERIOR, AND THE PURPOSE FOR SHOWING THE INTERIOR IS WE WANTED TO SHOW THEN OUR REQUEST FOR CHANGES FROM THE EXTERIOR TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR THAT OUR EXTERIOR CHANGES ALIGN WITH OUR INTERIOR CHANGES.

AND AS YOU CAN SEE, WHAT WE ARE PROPOSING IS FOR THE BRICK TO HAVE MORE OF THAT LIGHTER MODERN FEEL AND OUR STUCCO AREAS AND OUR CANOPY TO HAVE ALSO THAT WARMTH WITH THE URBAN BRONZE.

WE'RE ALSO ADDING A WOOD SCREENING, WHICH IS A DECORATIVE PIECE AND A FUNCTIONAL PIECE THAT PROVIDES A PRIVACY AREA FOR OUR GUESTS THAT ARE IN THAT LOBBY TO PROVIDE THAT ADDITIONAL LAYER OF PRIVACY.

THESE ARE SOME FLAT RENDERINGS THAT LET ME ZOOM IN AND SEE IF IT CAN SHOW A LITTLE BIT CLEARER.

LET'S SEE. IT'S A LITTLE BIT HARD TO TELL ON HERE, BUT BASICALLY WHERE THE LIGHTER AREAS ARE THAT WOULD MATCH WITH THIS LIGHTER AREA OVER HERE ON THE BRICK.
