City of Santa Ana -Park View at Town and Country Manor Draft EIR Aesthetics and Country Manor campus (with building height ranging from one to three stories) and the general project area, and reinforce the existing urbanized District setting within the North Main Design District. The City will evaluate consistency of the proposed project with the City's Urban Design Element during the City's development review process. Building elevations obtained from the project architect have been superimposed on photographs to demonstrate the impact of the 8 -story building on views and visual character and quality of the site and its surroundings. These visual simulations also allow for an evaluation of mass, scale, and architectural style of the proposed structure. Exhibits 4.1 -2 through 4.1 -6 display visual simulations of the proposed project from the northeast, south, southwest, and west perspectives. • Exhibit 4.1 -2: Visual Simulation 1: Northeast Perspective. The top, Existing Condition photograph shows the current view of the property to be occupied by the proposed 8 -story structure with City Place residential units behind. The lower, Proposed Development image illustrates the northeast perspective of the multi -story residential structure and provides a simulated view of the main entrance. One lane of the main entrance driveway would pass under the building overhang. • Exhibit 4.1 -3: Visual Simulation 2: South Perspective. The top, Existing Condition photograph shows the current view of the property to be occupied by the proposed 8 -story structure from the outer limit of Santiago Park, across Memory Lane at the intersection with Lawson Way, southeast corner. The lower, Proposed Development image illustrates the south perspective of the proposed residential structure and provides a simulated view from this location. • Exhibit 4.1 -4: Visual Simulation 3: Southwest Perspective. The top, Existing Condition photograph shows the current view of the property to be occupied by the proposed 8 -story structure from the outer limit of Santiago Park, across Memory Lane at the intersection with Lawson Way, southwest corner. The lower, Proposed Development image illustrates the southwest perspective of the proposed residential structure and provides a simulated view from this location. • Exhibit 4.1 -5: Visual Simulation 4: Southwest Perspective. The top, Existing Condition photograph shows the current view of the property to be occupied by the proposed 8 -story structure from inside the limits of Santiago Park. The lower, Proposed Development image illustrates the southwest perspective of the proposed residential structure from inside the limits of Santiago Park and provides a simulated view from this location. Views from the park in this location and elsewhere are screened by existing Park vegetation within the Park. • Exhibit 4.1 -6: Visual Simulation 5: West Perspective. The top, Existing Condition photograph shows the current view of the property to be occupied by the proposed 8 -story structure from existing City Place residential units across Lawson Way. The lower, Proposed Development image illustrates the west perspective of the proposed residential structure and provides a simulated view from this location.
