PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Project proposes the demolition of an existing 23,072-square-foot office building and two accessory buildings, totaling 7,188 square feet, and the retention of an 87,881 square-foot office building. Additionally, the Project proposes the construction of a new, eight-story office building with up to 196,100 square feet of office space, and 3,400 square feet of ground floor commercial space. The Project would total 199,500 square feet of floor area, for a Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 1.46:1 and a maximum building height of 135 feet to the top of the parapet. Vehicle parking would be provided within a five-level parking structure (including three above-grade and two subterranean levels) and a surface parking lot.
ANTICIPATED SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS:
Based on the analysis included in the Draft EIR, the Project would result in significant and unavoidable impacts related to: on-site and off-site construction noise and on-site and off-site construction vibration impacts related to human annoyance. All other potential impacts would be less than significant or mitigated to less-than-significant levels.
