A Pre-Permit Plan Check has been requested by Propel Studio Architecture for the Bakery Block at 5716 SE 92nd Ave:

The project consists of developing a new public plaza adjacent to the Zoiglhaus brewery in Lents. To create the space for the plaza we are proposing the demolition of the existing single-story carpet warehouse. The back of the site will include an expansion to the existing Zoiglhaus brewery, with a new glass facade to create a more transparent and aesthetically interesting backdrop for the plaza. To create the new public space we are redesigning the area that was the carpet store as well as the existing parking area to create a new urban plaza and a new private street off SE 92nd Ave. This private street will be designed as a woonerf, that will be a mulit-use area for emergency vehicles, private cars on weekdays, but then an extension of the plaza to accommodate the Lents Farmers Market and other community events. The project will include new seating, shade structures, public art, new plantings, and a water feature. The plaza design will also include stormwater management both for the surfaces of the plaza as well for the water from the roof of the extension for the brewery via bioswale and ground infiltration.
