from Theresa Same, MANA Zoning Chair
Our
cross-neighborhood committee met with Selig on June 27th for our first
design and redevelopment meeting. As a result, I have some new design
concepts to share with you as well as some general updates on the
project.
Design – Selig has hired Associated Space Design (ASD) to design the redevelopment of Suburban Plaza (SP). ASD recently designed the Shops Around Lennox
near Lennox Mall. The redevelopment at SP will have some similar design
concepts that you see at the Shops Around Lenox and yet will have a
unique look as they attempt to blend the many different architectural
styles found in the Decatur area. ASD began this design process by
studying the architecture of the surrounding areas (which varies
greatly). They identified the following as dominant styles in the area: Modern-retro Industrial, American Traditional, Modern Deco, Urban Chic, and Italianate Classical.
ASD then began creating a plan for SP that attempts to incorporate
design elements from all of these styles. The attached renderings are
preliminary design concepts for the façade renovation at SP. The design process is always mutable, and changes should be expected as the plans are further refined.
