7 Narrative for Project at N. Hermitage Alderman Pawar 47 th Ward Zoning Committee September 20, 2012 Project Description The property at N. Hermitage has a site area of 23,011 square feet, with 130 feet of frontage. The existing three story brick building is 43,389 square feet. The current property owner seeks an adaptive reuse of the existing building for a mixed use project. Specifically, the owner proposes to use the space: to house the corporate office for the owner s financial service business on the first and second floors (the total office space build out will be 18,922 square feet), to create two corporate dwelling units for visitors to the owner s business on the first floor, and to build out the third floor for the owner s family residence. Current Zoning The current zoning of the property is RS-3 Residential Single-Unit (Detached House) District. From a land use perspective, the RS-3 Zoning District is too restrictive given the existing building on the property. Guided by policy set out in the Purposes and Intent Section of the 2004 Comprehensive Revision of the City of Chicago Zoning Ordinance, [to] promo[te] rehabilitation and reuse of older buildings Section of the City of Chicago Zoning Ordinance, the property owner is in keeping with the intent of the Zoning Ordinance to rehabilitate and re-use the existing building. However, the existing RS-3 zoning would only allow for a single family detached or a two flat to be developed in the building -- and a 43,000+ square foot house (or 20,000+ per dwelling unit for a two-flat) is clearly excessive. Proposed Zoning -- The property owner seeks a B2-3 Neighborhood Mixed-Use District for the following two reasons: The B2 zoning classification (as opposed to the B1 or B3) allows for the corporate dwelling units to be built as of right on the 1 st floor per Section of the Zoning Ordinance; and the total office space build out will not exceed the 25,000 square foot maximum imposed by the Chicago Zoning Ordinance in a B2 Zoning District per Section A of the Zoning Ordinance. The -3 density will require the site to provide more than enough off-street parking for the owner s cars and for the employees that will be driving to work. The owner projects a build-out of approximately 18,922 square feet for the office space portion of the project. This floor plan schedule would require 18 parking spaces for the office space, 1 parking space for the family residence, and 2 parking spaces for the corporate dwelling units. Although the parking requirements set out by the Chicago Zoning Ordinance in a -3 require more parking spaces than the owner anticipates he will need given the projected number of employees and the accessibility of public transit, the site can accommodate 21 parking spaces.

8 We explored the -1 and -2 density classifications and determined that the parking requirements would be excessive for the proposed number of employees who will be working at the office at a peak time even if none were to take public transit. For a build-out of 18,922 square feet of office space, both the -1 and -2 density classifications would require 31 parking spaces for the office portion of the project, clearly more than required for the 10 employees anticipated at the business. Requested Zoning/Other Relief The rezoning from RS-3 to B2-3; The alley access ordinance where more than six parking spaces are to be incorporated into a site, then City Council approval must be obtained. Section of the Chicago Municipal Code; and Possible driveway permit - on Hermitage for optimal parking design and layout.
