SUSTAINABILE DESIGN STRATEGIES
SITE SELECTION
• The project constitutes a significant residential project in center city Philadelphia. The project will increase density while replacing an above-grade parking structure.
• All parking to support the project is provided below grade to emphasize active pedestrian uses throughout the ground floor.
PUBLIC AND ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION
• The urban location of the project site provides ample access to Philadelphia’s public transportation system, including bus stops, trolley stops, subway stations, indego bike share stations, and suburban commuter train stations less than a half mile away. The site is also easily walkable to most of Philadelphia’s downtown businesses and institutions.
• The project will include bike racks as part of the sidewalk improvements and secured indoor bike storage for residents.
• Charging stations will be provided in the parking garage for plug-in electric vehicles.
ENERGY CONSERVATION
• Through a combination of high-efficiency enclosure systems, mechanical systems, lighting and plumbing systems, the project exceeds code required performance standards.
• Commissioning of the project will ensure that the systems are installed, calibrated and performed as intended.
STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
• The project provides improvements to the sidewalks fronting Sansom St, including new street trees and planters to assist in managing stormwater runoff.
• The project includes landscaped elements on the roof terrace to help mitigate urban heat island effect and assist with stormwater runoff.
• The project includes a below-grade detention basin to manage the project’s stormwater.
HEALTHY INDOOR ENVIRONMENT
• Finish materials will be specified to be low or no-VOC, regional, and of recycled content wherever possible.
• Collection and storage of recyclables for residents and retailers is planned for the project.• Indoor spaces are designed to maximize daylight and natural ventilation to improve occupant
comfort and well-being.

STREETS HANDBOOK CHECKLIST
COMPLETE STREETS HANDBOOK CHECKLIST Philadelphia City Planning Commission
1
INSTRUCTIONS This Checklist is an implementation tool of the Philadelphia Complete Streets Handbook (the “Handbook”) and enables City engineers and planners to review projects for their compliance with the Handbook’s policies. The handbook provides design guidance and does not supersede or replace language, standards or policies established in the City Code, City Plan, or Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).
The Philadelphia City Planning Commission receives this Checklist as a function of its Civic Design Review (CDR) process.

CDR SUSTAINABILITY QUESTIONAIRE
Civic Sustainable Design Checklist – Updated September 3, 2019
1
Civic Design Review Sustainable Design Checklist Sustainable design represents important city-wide concerns about environmental conservation and energy use. Development teams should try to integrate elements that meet many goals, including:
· Reuse of existing building stock · Incorporation of existing on-site natural habitats and landscape elements · Inclusion of high-performing stormwater control · Site and building massing to maximize daylight and reduce shading on adjacent sites · Reduction of energy use and the production of greenhouse gases · Promotion of reasonable access to transportation alternatives
The Sustainable Design Checklist asks for responses to specific benchmarks. These metrics go above and beyond the minimum requirements in the Zoning and Building codes. All benchmarks are based on adaptions from Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) v4 unless otherwise noted.
Categories
Benchmark
Does project meet benchmark? If yes, please explain how. If no, please explain why not.
Location and Transportation
(1) Access to Quality Transit
Locate a functional entry of the project within a ¼-mile (400-meter) walking distance of existing or planned bus, streetcar, or rideshare stops, bus rapid transit stops, light or heavy rail stations.
(2) Reduced Parking Footprint
All new parking areas will be in the rear yard of the property or under the building, and unenclosed or uncovered parking areas are 40% or less of the site area.
(3) Green Vehicles
Designate 5% of all parking spaces used by the project as preferred parking for green vehicles or car share vehicles. Clearly identify and enforce for sole use by car share or green vehicles, which include plug-in electric vehicles and alternative fuel vehicles.
(4) Railway Setbacks (Excluding frontages facing trolleys/light rail or enclosed subsurface rail lines or subways)
To foster safety and maintain a quality of life protected from excessive noise and vibration, residential development with railway frontages should be setback from rail lines and the building’s exterior envelope, including windows, should reduce exterior sound transmission to 60dBA. (If setback used, specify distance)i
(5) Bike Share Station Incorporate a bike share station in coordination with and conformance to the standards of Philadelphia Bike Share.
The project is served by several bus stops lessthan 500 feet from the front entrance of 1620Sansom. They include stops at 16th/Walnut,16th/Chestnut, 17th/Walnut and 17th/Chestnut(bus routes 21 and 42). Additionally, theproject is approximately 0.2 miles from the15th/16th & Locust St. train station and lessthan 0.3 miles to the 15th St train station andWalnut/Locust train stations.
All parking for the project is located below grade.
