Subject:ARC communication - 1575 Monterey Street
Dear San Luis Obispo Architectural Review Commission,
We own and live at 1640 Higuera Street and have the following comments:
1.The 45' high structure is still not compatible with the neighborhood since most of the surrounding structures are one
and
two story buildings. The revised drawings do not address the 45’ height.
2.On page A6.0, Colors & Materials, the rendering shows the building in white and brown tones. However, the color
swatches show the majority of the building is “simply white”. Also, the brown color shown on the renderings is specified
as “passion vine” which is green. Please consider that Quality Suites is green and white. So there is already a three story
white and green structure one block down. As specified now, the neighborhood will have two very tall white and green
buildings on each side. On page A6.1, Perspectives, the building is shown with colors matching the surrounding
buildings not “simply white”. The browns and earth tones shown on the renderings would be preferable to green.
Thank you for your consideration,
Reinie & John Jones
1640 Higuera Street
