(612) 949-9589 May 26, 1998 The Honorable Nancy Mancino, Mayor The Honorable steve Berquist The Honorable Mark Engel The Honorable Mike Mason The Honorable Mark Senn City of Chanhassen 690 City Center Drive Chanhassen, Minnesota 55317 Re: Site Plan Approval Applicant: Bloomberg Companies Incorporated Frontier Center 98 - 7 SPR Greetings: This office is counsel for Bloomberg Companies Incorporated, the applicant requesting approval of the Site Plan for the renovation of the Frontier Center. ~ , This letter is submitted in support of the Bloomberg proposal, requesting approval of the Site Plan application, with the conditions as set forth in the attached proposed Resolution. Attached are a revised proposed Resolution, which we request the Council adopt; and a letter from Robert Davis regarding use of brick on the south wall. The Frontier Building was built by Herbert Bloomberg in approximately 1965. Herbert Bloomberg had a national reputation and business as a builder of Behlen buildings. Frontier was a "Behlen" building, constructed with exterior bearing walls of formed structural steel panels, bolted together. The entire west wall, the north and south end of the east wall, and the east and west ends of the south wall, consist of Behlen panels. The building was used as a retail and wholesale lumber yard. Since the closing of the Frontier Lumber, that part of the building has had various uses. The northerly portion, of wood frame constuction, f+onting on West 78th Street, has always been retail and office. h '.:,.. .~ Chanhassen City Council May 26, 1998 page 2 Bloomberg now seeks approval of its Proposed Site Plan for retail tenant usage in the southerly portion. City Staff and Bloomberg have had many meetings and conferences to iron out differences and disagreements. Significant disagreements between Staff and Bloomberg have been reduced to: a. May Bloomberg retain, as an architectural element in its design, the Behlen steel panels on the west wall? [see paragraph # 6 of attached proposed Resolution, in alternate form] ; b. Is the Bloomberg design for the South Elevation within the standards of Sec. 20-110 and Sec. 20-116 of the Zoning Code? [see paragraph I 7 of the attached proposed ReSOlution]. a. WEST WALL. Bloomberg proposes the retention of the Behlen steel panels as the exterior wall surface because: 1. The sculpted effect of the panels provides: complimentary difference in materials; texture and additional dimension; excellent backdrop for Bloomberg I s proposed three dimensional murals. 2. The steel panels are: a structural part of the building; undiminished in function and effectiveness. 3. The steel panels are to be painted. 4. As an existing part of the Building I we do not believe its retention as an architectural element of design, if otherwise acceptable, is precluded by the Sec. 20-116(b) phrase "use of metal trim on building exteriors shall be limited. " b. SOUTH ELEVATIOII. Bloomberg seeks Council approval of its design as submitted (Sheet A 3, "ExterioI; Elevations") because: -,.. 2 Chanhassen City Council May 26, 1998 page 3 1. The design and architectural detail are consistent with the 78th street frontage of the north portion of the Frontier Building and the Chanhassen Dinner Theatres Building, of which the subject building is an integral part, with unified exterior design. 2. Bloomberg's design reduces appearance of breadth and mass by: Lap siding to frame the windows at the east and west ends; A central mansard, flanked by smaller mansards; Cedar columns to support the mansard. mass by: 3. Bloomberg's design reduces appearance of height and Horizontal arrangement of materials, components, textures, and colors; Accent brick at the foundation, up to the windows; Glass, with aluminum mullions separating the window panels; Central horizontal window section; Cedar siding above windows, and at either end; Lap siding; Mansards, with cedar shakes; Difference in colors of brick, lap siding, window glass, and cedar shakes. 4. Bloomberg's proposed design suits, and perhaps is demanded by, the necessities of retail store leasing, in that: Window design must be flexible with separate panels, to have variations in size of tenant space without structural changes; [See Robert Davis letter]; The design is flexible, to enable such remodeling or changes that the retail leasing market would require in the future. 5. The proposed design suits tenants' needs in that: Visibility is vital to the retail tenant; Sign visibility is vital to the retail tenant;' \ . " 3 Chanhassen City Council May 26, 1998 page 4 6. Bloomberg does not choose the all-brick facade because: An all-brick facade would emphasize any perception of mass and height; Brick is not practical for tenant construction flexibility [see Robert Davis letter]; Brick does not create transition from the "Cinema" building; Bloomberg's proposed use of brick as a foundation accent is consistent with its use elsewhere in the Frontier Building in the 78th street frontage. Approval as submi tted, wi th exceptions as noted in the Resolution attached, is requested. Your consideration and efforts are appreciated. Respectfully submitted, cc: Mr. Don Ashworth Ms. Kate Annenson Ms. Sharmin AI-Jaff " .., ~ >, The following resolution is proposed by,Bloomberg Companies, the Applicant, requested to be adopted by the Chanhassen City Council, at its Meeting on Tuesday May 26, 1998..

Davis Architect 26 May 1998 City Council City of Chanhassen 690 City Center Drive Chanhassen, MN 55317 Regarding the feasibility of installing a brick facade on the south elevation of the Frontier Building: The South Wall of this building is a curtain wall; it has no roof load imposed, roof load being carried entirely by the East and West Walls. The wall section above the window area has only its own dead load and wind loads, which are currently handled by the window mullions. If this area were to receive brick, the additional load would require re-designing the total wall, including a continuous steel beam supported by 4 or 5 steel columns. If the columns were to be brick or brick-clad, the flexibility of the division of tenant spaces would be greatly compromised. To maintain necessary flexibility in dividing into tenant leasehold spaces, I recommend minimizing any necessary columns in order to keep the modular window mullion pattern that can receive entry doors at any point along its length. Another factor is that the lintel area is protected by the mansard, and is subject only to mild weathering, not to wear and tear of passers-by or traffic. Except for purely subjective considerations of appearance, the lintel need not be of exceptionally durable and expensive material such as brick. Robert J. Davis Reg Archt MN 12427 ; t'l ,..-
