A new project called The Olive will be a 3-story, 6-unit, fee simple with HOA townhouse on three existing lots [619, 621 & 623 East Pine Street] in Thornton Park.
The two corner units are 3,000 sq.ft. each and the four interior units are 2,500 sq. ft. each for a total of 16,000sq. ft. not including the six two-car garages.
The six two-car garages equal 2,840 sq. ft. for a total of a8, 840 sq. ft.
The building is located to provide one 20-foot two-way entry and exit drive landscaped on both sides and a generous rear yard for odd-street guest parking as well as green space for storm water and ample landscaping.
On the east side of the property, 2-feet will be given to the neighboring property to allow them to have a private driveway which is currently shared between the two properties [613 & 619 E. Pine St.].
This project has been discussed with and reviewed by the City Planning Division during three meetings over the past 3 months.
The proposed structure meets the required desnity, use, setbacks, lot coverage, impervious surface ration, 1st floor transparency and height requirements as defined by the Code. With 18 off-street parking spaces [3 per unit] it exceeds the parking requirement.
The highly articulated street façade and carefully chosed material and color composition are sensitive to the transitional scale and style of this downtown neighborhood. The electrical service will be run underground with meters located on the rear of the building. The AC units will be on the roof and pushed back from Pine Street and screened so they are not visible.
