The design was conceived in 2015, but then due to its inherent major challenges was put on hold. Permits were approved in late 2017 and the bulk of the construction happened in late 2018 through the Spring of 2019. The remodel included the back-of-house area of the existing grocery store and a replacement all of the mechanical, electrical, and refrigeration systems in order to upgrade them and provide energy efficiency... while keeping the store OPEN! The back-of-house area remodel included a partial building demolition in order to provide an expanded roof platform. A new superstructure was erected and the existing mechanical platform seismically retrofitted. The existing platform received the new mechanical air handling systems (large packaged A/C unit, make-up air system, kitchen grease exhaust fans, mini-split systems for the offices, and new water boiler and tank) and the new platform contains the store’s refrigeration system (compressor rack and air-cooled condenser). The platforms and the equipment on them are surrounded by a 14’ high steel (perforated panel and acoustic absorbing core) sound wall that was carefully studied and approved by the adjoining residential neighborhood. The back-of-house area was also redesigned and all the rooms except the kitchen were reconfigured in order to provide a more economical use of the space that included a larger walk-in cooler and freezer. The store’s existing wood-framed storage mezzanine was seismically retrofitted as well, including steel columns and beams supporting the freezer that supports a large portion of the mezzanine. The new manager’s office included upgraded furniture and computer networking. The employee breakroom included new seating and accessible counter and sink. All interior and exterior lighting was replaced. The project was also expanded to include all new refrigerated grocery cases inside the store, including a remodel of the meat and seafood service departments. The architect, our principal Robert Cooley, had previously executed the drawings for the store’s accessibility upgrades, including the restrooms, parking, seating, redesign of the coffee counter, and more as part of his role as the project manager for upgrading 35 Northern CA Whole Foods Market in order to meet the applicable construction related accessibility standards. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c0dc376b8f5b630c8eb2e2/1628549322239-N4GMY1W540CMRIYJ68A7/180926_SAS-Completed+%287%29.jpg Projects Parking Lot and Entrance Upgrade to provide two accessible stalls and an accessible route connecting them to the existing front entry ramp. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c0dc376b8f5b630c8eb2e2/1628550942829-FHITPQ2L3YKCULQ8PG6D/180926_RBM-Completed+%289%29.jpg Projects - Redwood City Bargain Market Project Description: Parking Lot Upgrade Year Completed: 2017 Provide accessible parking upgrades in tandem with an interior remodel.

Completed: 4/2021 This project had many difficult challenges. The owner and franchise operator had a vision to have a prominent public reception area at the front corner of the building, which meant relocating the old waiting room to the other side of the building and overcoming some slope and elevation challenges. In order to make everything work, the accessible van stall was strategically placed where it could be as far down the sloping street as possible. That made it so the entry to get to the shop and reception office was low enough that the rest of the grade could be made up with a ramp down to the existing building elevation. Not only did we make it work, but we also saved lots of cost because we were able to keep the existing level inside the building past the ramp, rather than having to pour any new or elevated foundations. Another difficulty was removing a pit at the corner of the old repair garage in order to provide a through-drive for cars to exit out of the shop. Once that was removed, there was a ramp created that extended into the building in order to make-up for the step in the garage door elevation next to the pit. Therefore, not only were the project’s goals met, but also we did not have to make the exterior driveways any steeper than they already were. This makes it so the shop can service more sporty vehicles without having to back them out the one-way entry. The site was under new zoning laws, which made it so that if the shop’s services were disrupted for 30 days, then they would lose their conditional use permit and no longer be allowed to operate as an automotive repair or tire shop. When the owner took possession of the building, we were able to keep the business running and meet accessibility regulations (Federal ADA Standards) by creating a Van Accessible parking stall inside the tire shop. Once the remodel was completed, this stall was removed and the space was given back to the store’s regular operations. Other highlights include a fully accessible employee breakroom, further cost savings by only relocating one restroom, an HVAC system mounted to a new platform above the new showroom, a fully accessible restroom with a baby change table, all new storefront windows, new interior and exterior lighting, corporate branded exterior signage, and decorative awnings. https://www.cooleyarch.com/cover daily 1.0 2017-04-22 https://www.cooleyarch.com/casp-accessibility daily 0.75 2020-08-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c0dc376b8f5b630c8eb2e2/1494620805976-ST2N7HDWJJ3Z2DJXXEAS/signs-accessible-signs-handicap-accessible-symbol-signs-ada-10.png CASp / Accessibility https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c0dc376b8f5b630c8eb2e2/1497991589765-C8M1WCSPNV2V2AYDNIZB/2116+N.+Main_Accessibility CASp / Accessibility https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c0dc376b8f5b630c8eb2e2/1497991709585-2SN1A6UKO2OA53C2JQIT/West+Rock_Exterior_Accessibility CASp / Accessibility https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c0dc376b8f5b630c8eb2e2/1497991668557-DEN54MH7SPJYCP1WZHIA/Barre3_Accessibility_Bathroom CASp / Accessibility https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c0dc376b8f5b630c8eb2e2/1494620657682-VQACUGNF19Q26YO0TILS/image-asset.png CASp / Accessibility https://www.cooleyarch.com/contact daily 0.75 2020-02-12 https://www.cooleyarch.com/error daily 0.75 2017-05-10 https://www.cooleyarch.com/team-1 daily 0.75 2020-07-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c0dc376b8f5b630c8eb2e2/1492169786093-OIDNH2SZYHFY9756498L/RCooley_Headshot_Blue.jpg About Our Team https://www.cooleyarch.com/about-1 daily 0.75 2020-07-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c0dc376b8f5b630c8eb2e2/1492174994546-4DZICZ63Y4P71PKJ0TV5/CArch.jpg About Our Practice (Copy)
