SOLID EDGE RESPONSE MEDIUM TOHIGH RISE BUILDINGS: GUIDELINESThe following principles should be appliedwhere medium to high rise buildings aresituated at or close to the street boundary(solid edge response). Vertical articulation :Building base atground and first floors, building bodyat second to sixth floors, building topseven and eight floors plus roof space.Expression lines in between. Maximum building line setback: 7.5m Corners of blocks must build to zerobuilding line (see block details inprecinct plans) Parking semi-basements protrudingone metre or less above street levelcan be built to zero building line. Parking structures protruding morethan one metre above street levelmust be setback 7.5 m from boundaryline with a suitable interface. Active uses on ground floor at least25% of the length of the block, in theform of functional and visual interface(people can walk into the building andback to the street) This includesentrance lobbies, gateways to internalblock areas, shops, coffee shops, etc. In addition there should be a visualinterface, where people inside thebuildings and in the street can see oneanother on the ground and first floorsfor at least 25% of the length of theblock in the form of large windowpanels (glass), balconies, terraces, etc. Uses on ground floor should bepredominantly offices and retail, aswell as entrances to buildings.PLANNING PARTNERS: CENTURY CITY URBAN DESIGN FRAMEWORK October 2005 28REVISION 1
