PROFILE

PAR PROFILE Platform for Architecture + Research is an office interested in architectural possibilities. Setup as a platform for exchange within a global context, our approach mixes keen analysis, formal experimentation and social responsibility into designs which uniquely respond to each project. PAR was founded in 2003 by Jennifer Marmon in Los Angeles. Since then, we have realized several residential and office projects within the US. With the joining of Angus Goble as a partner in 2010, PAR expanded to include a satellite office in New York. Most recently, PAR has received international recognition in exhibitions at the US National Building Museum, the Keelung Harbor Tower, the Yangming Marine Museum,

PAR

Center for Architecture, SCI-Arc and the ACSA 101 Conference. In 2012, PAR was honored with numerous AIA Awards and featured in publications such as MARK, Concept, DAMDI, FRAME and Future Arquitecturas. At present, our studio of ten is working on a cultural center proposal in Taiwan, a ranch in Uruguay, houses in Los Angeles and Seattle and a proposal for Expo Milano 2015. The construction of a our first private villa, located in the Hollywood Hills will top out in Summer 2013. Since 2011, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve begun exploring programmatic complexity through international competitions for cultural and civic projects.

RESEARCH To further our understanding of relevant issues and push forward architectural possibilities, PAR commits substantial efforts toward proactive research and speculative proposals. With a build-it-and-they-will-come attitude, broad themes such as typology, urbanization, materiality, decarbonization, and spatial equity are present in our agenda. We believe in the long view and as such, commit intellectual capital to ongoing research with the aim of adding value to our competition schemes, development proposals and commissioned architectural projects. The projects that most clearly demonstrate this approach are PLUG-IN which creates a financing scheme to build new market rate housing without using new land, REC evaluates waste-to-building strategies within the context of a decarbonized future and LINE which considers development synergies in communities separated by socioeconomic and political realities. The premise of these projects is based on our underlying aim of mixing keen analysis and formal experimentation as drivers of design.

PAR

PROCESS We are interested in design ideas and their value in the world. Solving a design problem is a nonlinear process. We begin with an affirmative, hands-on approach by asking questions, testing concepts and defining parameters. From an early stage, iterative studies are evolved with regard to functionality and economy until a concept rises to the top. Throughout the process, we act as a PLATFORM for exchange and diversity of thought, jointly developing design ideas with our partners and clients. Variables are translated into both physical and virtual models, investigating a given project from its initial formal explorations to final stakeholder and investor presentations. As an outpost to our studio, we are members of a fabrication co-op equipped with state of the art laser cutters, 3D printers and mills, plays an integral role in our modeling capabilities. We find referencing these models facilitates informed decision-making throughout the steps of a project.

Tailored to accommodate the proportions and daylighting requirements of the collections spaces, the reading rooms, the archives and the art galleries, the building is customized to the needs and desires of its individual tenants while fused to form a single cultural whole. The twisting volume creates a building that transforms from a horizontal organization where library, museum and support functions are placed next to each other, to a vertical organization where they are stacked on top of each other through a diagonal organization combining vertical hierarchy, horizontal connectivity and diagonal view lines

Water conservation measures to minimize consumption: - Grey water reuse (on the spot, for garden vegetation) - Irrigation-free landscaping and green roofs - Avoidance of water use for cooling tower through selection of geothermal system - Waterless or low-flow sanitary fixtures - Snow, melted by heated gutter system, and rain water for outdoor water features - Grey/ snow water for remaining irrigation purposes

To best ventilate the structure, the facade will be closed in the winter and be opened in the summer to bring fresh air into the space. The benefit of extending the facade below grade, is to bring in fresh air at a low level. Heat is radiated through a raised floor displacement ventilation system. Perimeter throughs within the raised floor will conceal linear Fourth Level hydronic radiators to provide perimeter heating.

The district energy systems allow for using several renewable sources to cover the heating demand. Process or waste heat by ships is available all year. The winter period is characterized by low temperatures and low solar irradiation for about 3 to 4 months. Therefore the heating demand varies over the season significantly, Adding a seasonal storage to the energy supply system provides the potential for optimizing the ratio of renewable used, Even the efficiency of the combined heat and power production facility is optimized by providing a heat sink in summer.

Waste heat from process cooling (e.g. office’s computer center) is going into the return of the district cooling system. During the heating season this return is used to feed a central absorption heat pump (low temperatue level).

A series of programmatic strips are stacked to create a narrow building that is optimal for the Helsinki climate and library program. The strips feature 11.5 m deep plates that allow for flexibility in collections layout and maximize available natural light, creating an ideal reading environment crucial for the library. A superimpostion of the strips is extruded up to maximum height generating a prismatic volume that contains a public void at the ground level. Along the plaza is a multi-height atrium which opens up to the park and pedestrian pathway draws people into the library.

The use of a natural-gas fired microturbine cogeneration system will generate electricity and heating for the building, with a 52% reduction over a typical Helsinki building performance. The microturbine could also be configured to run on bio-gas to transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy.

The library is organized by six intersecting axes that afford spectacular vistas while creating a variety of spatial configurations for the library’s program. With it’s six floor levels each pointing toward a celebrated landmark, the Central Library becomes a symbolic center for city. Public living rooms are located within the three sloping peaks, the Reading Room, Sauna and Restaurant. Designed as a spatial sequence with surprising transitions, each floor of the library presents connections from public spaces such as Reading Platforms, Sunrooms and the Observatory to Helsinki’s enduring icons. With panoramic views of the city and Senate Square dome, the Observatory terminates the promenade of escalators and staircases that dynamically rise through the building.

The Southern California Institute Of Architecture [Sci-Arc] 40Th Anniversary Exhibition, Los Angeles, Us, April 2013 D3 Unbuilt Visions Awards Exhibition University Of Louisiana, Us, March - April 2013 Keelung Harbor Tower Exhibition Yangming Marine Museums, Taipei, Tw, October 2012 Keelung Harbor Tower Exhibition Keelung Evergreen Hotel, Keelung, Tw, September 2012

Keelung is a gateway that through its history, climate and the customs of its inhabitants, is predestined to make use of its exterior space. For this reason, we decided instead of planning the building as an independent object within an open space, we would propose buildings that will generate and structure this open space. The project form, together with the lighting, aims to provide a dramatic entry experience to Taiwan from both the sea and the city of Keelung. Its chosen theme, A Mixing Chamber, reflects Taiwan’s contemporary ambition: its different cultures – the users of the terminal – embarking on a unified future. Cutting diagionally through the terminal platform, multiple relations between the concourse and other levels of the building are established, while permitting new angles of vision and a changing play of light. A collection of prisms crown the terminal’s Departure, Domestic and International Halls with luminous vaulted spaces. Derived from the interstitial space between Halls, the Marine Plaza projects inward bringing the outside in. The roof garden and interiors are designed as hybrid spaces, not only blurring the boundaries between exterior and interior, but which also easily adapt to the variable program. Existing public pedestrian flows along the western edge are enhanced by creating an elevated public plaza adjacent to the concourse with independent circulation. Overall, an experience of directed yet functionally separated flows lends an aura of energy to the terminal building. To become a landmark, this project adopts a form that resists easy classification to free-associate with successive symbols of the utilitarian, the industrial, the poetic. It combines maximum artistry with maximum efficiency. The Harbor Tower is a clearly identifiable landmark. It’s portal becomes a framing devise for the city while providing passage at the plaza. Given it’s location and placement, the figure of the tower takes a geometrical stand in relation to the mountains and transit network. Oriented to true north with the widest elevation on the Land-Sea Axis, the tower is literally the hinge between harbor and city. Tilting five degrees eastward, the tower’s broadest facades dematerialize into reflections of water or sky. A global gateway, the tower represents Taiwan’s cultural progress, innovation, and modern commerce.

This commission is situated in José Ignacio, a small seaside village north of Punta del Este. Uruguay represents a world at one with the water with vast beaches, lagoons and lush green landscape. The client is a business executive who has been visiting this village for many years. This project is to design a private ranch for business or families family holidays. Sited within an expansive 15 hectare setting, the rancho’s orientation rotates 30° west toward ideal sightlines to the Atlantic. Set upon a plateau, 7 buildings integrated with the surrounding horizons are approached by a processional on axis with the sea. Taking inspiration from Le Corbusier’s masterwork Ronchamp, punctuated thick masonry walls amplify light and sound. Each of Rancho José Iganacio’s site elements is designed to integrate with the natural topography and enhance the landscape. Buildings are organized in public and private zones adjacent to shaded outdoor living spaces. A viewing platform above the court enables guests to take in the Uruguayan night sky.

PIRAEUS ANTIQUITIES MUSEUM

REFLECTING POOL

Interacting with its surroundings, the new museum opens up to the eastern plaza and pedestrian pathway. As an addition to the other buildings in the district, an essential component of the design involved creating a robust public space at the top of the museum—visually connecting the Cultural Coast to Piraeus and Athens at large. The roof is activated by a reflecting pool suspended above the eastern entrance. Seawater from the pool doubles as a passive cooling element as its circulated within towers integrated into the original grain silo structure. The museum’s exhibitions are combined in a continuous loop which spirals from the lobby to the upper level public space. This organization provides many possibilities for different exhibition spaces and techniques. interior/ exterior, covered/ open, dark/ light, intimate/ public. The large public voids enable antiquities to be viewed from differing vantage points stimulating visitor interaction. The museum program is concentrated in three program blocks: exhibitions, curation and administration. The programs are linked by three interconnected atriums which shape the museum’s public space whilst opening the building to it’s surroundings. Monumental vertical circulation is integrated into the existing structural grid along the east elevation. Multiple circulation cores provide shortcuts for visitors to jump off the linear exhibition narrative to direct points of interest.

N SU

The new Antiquities Museum of Piraeus is conceived through a spatial inversion, this industrial typology is reinvented as a cultural destination. Our interest lies not only in the complex program of the museum, but in the site’s unexploited urban potential as a civic link. Transformed into an iconic, world class museum, the building’s openness activates the Cultural Coast District. A system of void spaces introduces a spatial configuration that brings daylight to public areas whilst engaging the surrounding urban context. Selective erasure ensures that treasured qualities of the concrete silo structure will be retained and adapted into the new use. At moments of subtraction, the cartesian grid of the silo building translates into a new contoured geometry expressing the old in a new way.

CAGLIARI ART MUSEUM

TYPE: Cultural, Museum Extension CLIENT: City Of Cagliari LOCATION: Cagliari, Sardinia, Italia STATUS: 2012-2013, Competition In Procedure AREA: 12,000 m2 ARCHITECT: Jennifer Marmon, Partner in Charge; Ross Ferrari, Project Architect; Matthew Young, Doy Laufer Cruz, Yen Vo, Jessica De Vries, Ryan Fagre, Cory Ringo, Reza Hadian, James Hwangbo, Bowen Wu

Set upon a panoramic plateau in the ancient district of Sardinia’s capital city will soon sit the Cagliari Galerie Comunale D’Art’s new extension. Our concept formulates a network of separate but interconnected “clusters” that unfold, open and invite museum visitors inside. Single-height exhibition spaces are anchored by four clusters, each with an adjoining sculpture garden. Gallery volumes and arrangements were inspired by seminal works within the museum’s permanent collection, including ancient bronze and marble statues and works by the late Renaissance painter Pietro Cavaro. The museum extension is designed to complete the cultural complex while preserving centenary trees and visually opening to the ancient fortified wall and city beyond. Simple, primitive forms and local materials reflect a Sardinian sensibility, while the gesture of breaking up the new museum into discreet volumes transforms the simple cluster of galleries into an architecture that is at once contextual and abstract. A very direct organizational logic yields a form that works effectively for both internal and external spaces. Planned within a cartesian grid, all museum program with exception of galleries is efficiently organized on axis with the historic 18th Century Beaux Arts museum. By rotating the galleries 20 degrees to true north, optimum solar orientation enables naturally illuminated exhibition spaces with northern light. The combination of spatial diffusion and gallery rotation also afford exceptional views from all spaces of the museum creating a sense of transparency and connection to the remarkable Cagliari landscape and Mediterranean Sea. Just as interior and exterior spaces interpenetrate, so do two types of forms: the orthogonal-polygonal, as perceived from the exterior, and the organic, which produces a series of spatial surprises or ‘follies’. Occurring at passage points of incongruency between rotated galleries and the rest of the museum, the follies create connections. Where the exterior building envelope is heavy and rough, composed of locally-formed, sand-cast concrete the folly materiality is soft, transparent and irrational. With an almost labyrinthine character, visitors traverse the museum through a grand circulation loop of intervening spaces, ultimately returning to their starting point. “Short cuts’ through outdoor sculpture galleries create a multitude of alternate paths. Exterior and interior spaces overlap to provide the best environment possible for each function, and optimal climatic performance. The design of roof forms and oculus were developed with a parametric model whereby environmental analysis of daylighting, shading and insolence informed design decisions.

M HOUSE

Type: Housing Location: Los Angeles, US Status: Design 2008; Construction 2012-2013 Budget: $1.5 M Built Area: 300 m2 | 3,200 sf Architect: Jennifer Marmon, Partner In Charge; Team: Bertrand Geniost, Devon Montminy, Ross Ferrari

This residential commission is situated in a canyon near the Hollywood Sign and Griffith Observatory where there already exists a contemporary architectural context. The project emerged from the idea of making a suspended house that floats over the canyon, thus taking advantage of the Los Angeles skyline and generating many partially covered terraces for outdoor living. The dwelling is organized into two levels. The public areas, such as the gallery, living room, dining room, and kitchen, are on the lower level; the upper level includes three bedrooms and a semi-public leisure area adjacent to the pool which is naturally screened by topography. The hovering 60â&#x20AC;&#x2122; long building is supported by a podium built of local stone predominate in nearby fortifications. PAR celebrated the groundbreaking for this private house on August 13, 2012. Terraced into the canyon, the house is currently under construction and will top out Summer 2013.

LEMESOS MUSEUM

Type: Cultural, Museum Client: City Of Lemesos Location: Lemesos, Cyprus, Greece Status: 2012, Study Area: 9,000 m2 Architect: Jennifer Marmon, Partner In Charge; Cory Ringo, Project Architect; Matthew Young, Doy Laufer Cruz, Yen Vo, Jessica De Vries, Ryan Fagre, Reza Hadian, James Hwangbo, Bowen Wu

In 2012, the City of Lemesos held a competition for architects to propose designs for the Lemesos Museum of Art in the shorline district. One of the competitionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aims was to contribute to the consolidation of a cultural center composed of iconic architectural and programmatic attractants, projecting a singular and contemporary identity on behalf of the city. Our proposal integrates and reveals the complex layers of history and urbanism that weave through this site, where the Lemesos Museum of Art will be situated for years to come. Acknowledging these complexities, the strategy was to adopt the existing, diagonal circulation axis which generated a binary museum organization of permanent and temporary collections. Interstitial perimeter zones create a buffer between institution and city while enabling impromptu events and large scale installations a visibility beyond the walls of the museum. We were interested in offering an architectural vision where the paradox and conflicts between building and city, diversity and simplicity, individual and populace erode. As Lemesos seeks to reinvent its cultural center, this building capitalizes on the seduction and impact of the singular image while sustaining that effect through the attenuation of complex informational, structural, and atmospheric systems.

Our proposal for the Leeuwarden Kanaalzone provides a new framework for an urban geography where the best elements from both the natural landscape and project program create a unique condition for living on the water. The framework enables an organization of housing program that is flexible and varied, envisioning a district where history and future, density and openness, identity and diversity coexist. The resulting spatial experience fluctuates between variation and continuity while relating to the canalized way of life in the Fryslân region. In order to cultivate our emphasis on diversity, we imagine the Archipelago as a multifunctional district. In addition to mixing-in retail, restaurant and leisure functions, our strategy avoids mono-spatial qualities through a mix of buildings. Drawn from a study of waterfront cities, a collection of 9 housing typologies, each with it’s own individual character, create neighborhood identities based on their unique relationship to water.

THE WAVE

raa t s n

The Wave is designed as a topography of randomly mixed apartments where vegetated terraces surround circulation cores at each of the six levels. The building’s thru-unit floorplate ensures expansive views along Park Avenue through both north and south facades. Utilizing the structural principles of a double curvature, the thin slab achieves stability despite it’s narrow 12m depth. The most iconic of the nine typologies, the Wave’s sloping roofscape resembles that of water in motion.

CENOTES As an alternative to cellular flats, these apartments are afforded their own character, using the curvature of each elliptical courtyard to create unexpected spatial permutations. A network of cave pools function as water passages enabling arrival by boat through private water courtyards. Despite the playfulness, the abstracted flats are practical, with orthogonal interior partitions, standardized facades and stacked cores. The building features ground level garages, private docks and patches of greenery giving the block a sense of both privacy and community. 10,260 M2 10 (M10) 22 (M22) 43

a SPATIAL CONTINUUM / Programmatic Indeterminacy

GROUND FLOOR PLAN

Contemporary life presents much indeterminacy. This weekend home set within an open field is easily adaptable to various site conditions. Our initial idea was to unite life and landscape and we tried to develop a spatial concept that would structure but not completely separate the various areas and needs of daily life: one single space with places that have different characters to be set apart as private spaces or aggregated into collective area. This spatial indeterminacy enables inhabitants of the house to redefine the floor plan depending on their activities, perceptions and situations.

Breaking from a binary geometry of curved walls enclosed within a rectangular envelope enabled us to further relate and blend perceptions of inside and outside. Ultimately, the monolithic roof unifies the flexible, PAR FIELD HOUSE CONCEPT spatial groupings into one large, undivided space with no hallways or intervening rooms: a spatial continuum. Expressed as an independent piece of architecture, the roof strongly juxtaposes the vertical system of transparency and reflectivity imparted by the curvilinear glazed walls. In terms of materiality, the roof’s static gravity is relieved by facets and aperatures that refract light into the interstitial center of the building.

UNIFYING ROOF

Assuming the home to be used for weekend entertaining, our architectural treatment of the space allows the exterior, the interior and a possibility for artistic display or lifestyle to flow into each other. We explored the idea of curved, glazed walls since the curvature of the walls both enhances continuity and organizes space while the transparency of the glass enables it to be experienced as part of the larger whole. The use of glass verges on nothing, on complete transparency, the absence of material. Although, due to it’s reflective qualities, the curvature underscores both the visibility and invisibility of the material.

B HOUSE

TYPE: PRIVATE RESIDENCE LOCATION: WEST HOLLYWOOD, US STATUS: 2011, DESIGN DEVELOPMENT CLIENT: THE BUSHNAQS AREA: 480 m2 | 5160 sf

This project is located on an urban lot near Sunset Boulevard in the foothills of West Hollywood. The site is surrounded by adjacent buildings that block vistas of the surrounding hills and cityscape. Longtime friends, Firas and Margot Bushnaq relayed over a series of meals in noisy restaurants, their desires for the project. Our brief was to build a social retreat that would offer precisely those qualities that the existing house was missing. They are extremely social and imagined one large space for entertaining and playing with their children. Our response was to disperse the house and create vistas by orienting all the spaces inward. The concept became a spatial inversion whereby inserting the garden between public and private volumes created a new center. Since our spatial concept was developed from inside out, we did not at first focus on the appearance of the house from outside. As it turned out, the exterior remained discreet and uniform while materiality and textures in and around the courtyard are complex. PAR

SHUTTER HOUSES

Type: Housing Location: Los Angeles, US Status: 2004-2008, Completed Client: Western Pacific Development Budget: $3.3 M Area: 1.300 m2 | 13,860 sf Architect: Jennifer Marmon, Partner In Charge, Bertrand Geniost, Pooya Guidarzi, Matthew Ribault (Visualizations) Architect of Record: JVA PLATFORM FOR ARCHITECTURE + RESEARCH

The dynamic minimalist cube is PAR’s first residential project in Los Angeles and is located within the vicinity of the recently densifying Hollywood district. The term Los Angelization is often synonymous for urban sprawl since this megacity was one of the world’s first low density urbanized areas. However, Los Angeles grew more dense over the second half of the 20th Century becoming the most densely populated city in North America by the year 2000 with land consumption 450 m2 per resident. Despite it’s new and improved 21st Century density, Los Angeles continues to drift and expand boundlessly into undeveloped territory necessitating compact growth and infrastructural overhauls. Within the context of global urbanization, the past decade has provided opportunities to address outmoded patterns of residential development and domestic space in Los Angeles. A renewed interest in an urban lifestyle has supported a movement of architectural experimentation generating programmatic playfulness and higher density alternatives for a city that has long been infatuated with private gardens and detached housing. With the Shutter Houses project we were interested in building new housing without occupying new land and convinced our client to embrace an urban redevelopment strategy. The entire building volume is seemingly wrapped with a random pattern of glazing, creating a sense of unity amongst six townhomes contained within this five story building. The voids are treated with motorized shutters which visually respond to the ubiquitous presence of retractable gates within the urban context. As dwellers open and close their personal portals, the arrangement of occupation frequently shifts and alters the outward appearance. An automated mode enables autoresponse to environmental conditions and creating light-modulating privacy screens in the dynamic facade. Windows serve as framing devices to heighten a sense of connection and temporality between the building’s residents and the urban context.

The project is located on 15 acres of land several miles outside of Palm Springs, CA in the Mojave Desert. Our approach was to minimize environmental and ecological impacts while still meeting the objectives of our client’s brief. In doing so, we aimed to contain land disturbance by siting the villas within their natural topography as much as possible. We also developed more compact building footprints by increasing outdoor living spaces that take advantage of the temperate, sunny climate. The sweeping desert site has been subdivided into 18 unique plots accessed by discreet, naturally paved roadways. Plots are on average one acre and have a low lot coverage of 13 percent. Villas have been sited to maximize views and privacy while also making use of prevailing northwesterly winds for natural ventilation. c

ATHENS, GR

Type: Cultural Status: Competition 2012-2013 Area: 14.000 m2

The new Antiquities Museum of Piraeus is conceived through a spatial inversion, this industrial typology is reinvented as a cultural destination. A system of void spaces introduces a spatial configuration that brings daylight to public areas whilst engaging the surrounding urban context. Selective erasure ensures that treasured qualities of the concrete silo structure will be retained and adapted into the new use. The museum’s exhibitions are combined in a continuous loop which spirals from the lobby to the upper level public space. This organization provides many possibilities for different exhibition spaces and techniques: interior/ exterior, covered/ open, dark/ light, intimate/ public. KEELUNG HARBOR BUILDING

KEELUNG, TW Type: Transit, Office Status: Two Stage Prequalified Competition 2012, Finalist Area: 120.000 m2

To become a landmark, this project adopts a form that resists easy classification to free-associate with symbols of the utilitarian, the industrial, the poetic. The Harbor Tower is a clearly identifiable landmark. It’s portal becomes a framing devise for the city while providing passage at the plaza. Given it’s location and placement, the figure of the tower takes a geometrical stand in relation to the mountains and transit network. Oriented to true north with the widest elevation on the Land-Sea Axis, the tower a hinge between harbor and city. HELSINKI CENTRAL LIBRARY

HELSINKI, FI Type: Civic, Library Status: Competition 2012-2013, In Procedure Area: 14.000 m2

The cityscape in all its variety—the idyllic Baltic Sea, the broad expanse of skyline dotted with spires, and the urbanized plane of Töölönlahti was the incentive to design a building that concentrates on the vertical. In contrast to the other buildings in the district, an essential component of the design involved creating a public space at the top of the library—visually connecting Töölönlahti to Senate Square and the city at large. The library is organized by six intersecting axes that afford spectacular vistas while creating a variety of spatial configurations for the library’s program. A series of programmatic strips are stacked to create a narrow building that is optimal for the Helsinki climate and library program. CAGLIARI ART MUSEUM

CAGLIARI, SARDINIA, IT Type: Cultural, Museum Status: Competition 2012-2013, In Procedure Area: 12.000 m2

The museum’s primitive form and local materials reflect a Sardinian sensibility, while the gesture of breaking the building into discreet volumes transforms the simple cluster of galleries into an architecture that is at once contextual and abstract. Reinterpreting the theme of the archetypal hip roof predominant in the region became a point of interest. Characteristics of pitch, aggregation and intersection create a common thread between the museum and it’s context. Through a series of studies we determined that adding a fifth surface, recreated the hip roof with a performative oculus. Within a ruleset, roof vertices were adjusted in response to programmatic, spatial and climatic factors.

Peace within a space is related to the ephemeral silence associated with attributes of composure, selfevidence, durability, integrity and presence. Peace Pavilions provide moments of respite from hectic urban streetscapes. The client—a non-profit organization—has commissioned PAR to design three temporary structures that will provide a counterpoint to an urban pedestrian experience. Our response is to position each pavilion in an archetypical urban space: a park, a transit plaza, and on a sidewalk. Structurally, the pavilions will focus on tectonics, joinery, emergent materials and innovative applications of traditional materials. Construction Budget TBD. RESTAURANT 659
