W ALGREENS CHANHASSEN PROJECT
We are proposing to build a new Walgreens Pharmacy that will be approximately 15,650
square feet in size. This store is being built on the present site of the Americana Bank at
the northeast comer of 79th and Market. The store will include the uses typically
associated with a Walgreens Phannacy, including a Drive-Thru prescription pick-up
window.
The front of the building will face both 79th and Market Street with a generous landscape
area separating the building from each street. The vehicle entry points to the site will
remain in the current locations that are used for access to the bank. The visitor parking
will be located on the east side of the site to facilitate the shared parking arrangement that
is in place with the Applebee's restaurant to the east. This will also allow us to maintain
the shared access drive currently being used by the commercial properties to our east.
The front entry to our building will be located in the southeast comer of the building
adjacent to both 79th and the visitor parking allowing for ease in both pedestrian access
and access for those coming from parked vehicles.
The building design for this Walgreens is unlike any design we have done for them. It
certainly is a change from their standard prototype project. The façade of the building
has been broken up into a number of smaller components to break up the mass and length
of all of the walls enclosing this structure. We have utilized two primary masonry colors
along with a third detailing brick to enhance and detail this design. This has also been
accented with a matching roofing and window mullion scheme that also ties into the
individual wall sconces located on the pilasters going around the building. The wall
sconces are further enhanced by the detailed masonry strand extending below each wall
sconce, adding an additional vertical element to the façade design.
The landscaping for this project extends beyond that required by the city ordinance. We
are also planning a pedestrian seating area and bench to be located adjacent to the front
entry to the store. The landscaping design can be seen in the landscape plans attached to
this submittal as well as the color renderings ofthe project.
For this project we are requesting a Variance to the hard surface coverage requirement, a
Conditional Use Pennit for the electronic reader board portion of our sign and a Site Plan
Approval.
