Balzer and Associates designed a high-end retail center to accommodate Schwarzschild Jewelers and Bookbinder’s Grill. The exterior materials incorporate two shades of brick – a field color and a contrasting color for the infill panels below the arches. The arches themselves are pre-cast concrete. EIFS trim detailing and standing seam metal roofing tie the new building to the surrounding development. The structural system utilizes steel beams and columns supporting metal bar joists. The flat roof is rubber membrane and slopes to internal roof drains at the rear of the building, eliminating the need for visible downspouts. The front façade also features a covered walkway and storefront glazing for merchandise exposure.
