• Unique program elements expressed as an ensemble of boxes • Transition from more solid toward McCaw and more open toward corner • Boxes lifted above ground plane for maximum transparency

B Continuation of McCaw ‘Box’ Forms, Adding Major Openings

• • Apertures focus views in to program elements beyond • Form lifts at the corner to invite the public in
