Draft 1: 2016 SCW Physical Framework Map. Key Map showing 2016 SCW Plan’s Street Classification, Project Costs, and Buildout for Financial Analysis. The 2016 SCW Plan contained four separate key maps, one each for (1) Property Ownership; (2) Street Classification; (3) District Project Costs; and (4) Property Buildout Scenarios. All of these factors are interrelated, and the multiple key map system created confusion and mistakes with linking information from one set of data (e.g., the cost of a street segment) to another set of data (e.g., associated cost of a street segment to a particular buildout scenario). The 2020 Update of the 2016 SCW Physical Framework Map attached herein combines reference keys to all the above factors and applies a consistent identification system. This new map is especially important to the overall 2020 update, allowing for linkage between the spreadsheets/databases associated with SCW Physical Framework Project Costs and the SCW Financial Framework spreadsheets/databases under development. 2.a.ii.

DRAFT South Central Waterfront Advisory Board Meeting March 16, 2020 Agenda Item 2.c. - 2020 Update Report on SCW Plan’s Modified Physical Framework & Project Costs South Central Waterfront 2.c. Staff Note - 2020 SCW Modified Physical Framework: Map & Project Costs Updated: March 12, 2020 This packet contains two items, 2.c.i. & 2.c.ii.: 2.c.i. DRAFT 1: 2020 SCW Modified Physical Framework Map. The 2020 SCW Modified Physical Framework Map is identical to the 2016 SCW Physical Framework Map, EXCEPT for the layout of streets, parks and open spaces on the two largest properties in the district: the “Statesman” (property owner 22, @ nearly 19 acres) and the “Crockett” (property owner 23, @ approximately 12 acres). ○ Here are the differences between the two maps: i. ii. i. On the 2016 SCW Physical Framework Map, the street/block configuration on the Statesman & Crockett properties has the East Barton Springs Road located partially on the Statesman site (approximately 40% of the new road) and partially on the Crockett site (approximately 60%), with a rational street/block structure branching off from that “spine” street to the south on Crockett and to the north on Statesman. On the 2020 SCW Modified Physical Framework Map, the East Barton Springs road is shown wholly on the Statesman property (except for the southern sidewalk, which would be built on the Crockett property at some point). The corresponding street/block structures that build off that “spine” street to the Statesman north of East Barton Springs and Crockett south of East Barton Springs are reconfigured from how they’re shown on the 2016 SCW Physical Framework Map, to respond to the new location of East Barton Springs. ○ Intention of the SCW Plan: Collectively, these two properties now form a 30-acre superblock of mostly surface parking. Together, they offer an opportunity to introduce a new, connected street grid and connected open space system that can transform the character of the district with a walkable, transit-friendly, human-scaled public realm framework. To best set this framework in place, the 2016 SCW Physical Framework Plan envisioned that the key community-contributing east-west street, East Barton Springs, would be built across two properties (Statesman and Crockett), from South Congress Avenue to the properties’ eastern boundary (approximately 1,000 feet long). The eastern end of East Barton Spring would then join a new connector, Moton Lane, which would link to the intersection on East Riverside Drive. Moton Lane …
South Central Waterfront Advisory Board Meeting March 16, 2020 Agenda Item 2.d. - 2020 SCW Buildouts for Financial Analysis South Central Waterfront Agenda Item 2.d. 2020 SCW Buildouts for Financial Analysis Updated: March 12, 2020 CONTENTS WHAT’S NEW 2.d.i. Building Key – Endeavor Plan with SCW Building Heights 2.d.ii SCW Buildout Scenarios PUD proposal with notation showing the revised building heights, based on the 2016 SCW Plan Document outlining the uses and square footages associated with three scenarios DRAFT DRAFT RELEASE: March 12, 2020 Draft 1: 2020 Buildout Scenarios for Financial Analysis This packet contains two items: 1) Building Key – Endeavor Plan with SCW Building Heights a. Within the physical framework of blocks and green infrastructure, the SCW Plan modeled potential building developments on development parcels. This exercise involves creating site-specific schematic building designs to create Buildout Scenarios. Each Buildout Scenario models a building height, massing and program of uses (square feet of Office, Retail, Residential, Hotel), as well as calculate the required parking and accommodating the parking demand in the schematic design (i.e., schematic design of parking structures, in podium and below grade). i. The 2016 SCW Financial Framework Plan modeled schematic Buildout Scenarios on the “tipping parcels.” The Updated 2016 SCW Physical Framework Map keys in these individual Buildout Scenarios, which are identified on the map on top of the schematic building plans. As part of the work underway with CoA consultants (ECONorthwest), the 2016 Buildout Scenario is being updated with revised inputs (Physical Framework Costs, Development Assumptions, etc). ii. In addition to updating the proforma analysis of the 2016 Buildout Scenarios, the CoA consultants are also running an analysis of the Buildout Scenario as proposed by the PUD proposal. Simply, the PUD proposal differs from the 2016 Plan in three ways: 1. 90% of the parking is put in underground parking structures, as opposed to the 2016 SCW Plan which put approximately 25% parking underground, with 75% parking in podiums approximately 60’ high. Placing 90% of parking underground provides for superior urban design, but it is much more expensive than the more typical practice of using a combination of podium parking with some underground parking. 2. The PUD proposal takes their building heights above those as modeled in the SCW Plan. 3. The PUD proposal increases the uses to 3.5 M square feet, as opposed to 2.1 M square feet as modeled in the 2016 SCW …
