LAKEWOOD DOWNTOWN MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT

PROPOSAL | JUNE 30, 2017

 LAKEWOOD DOWNTOWN MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT COVER LETTER

Lakewood is a rare and special place.

In a time when cities around the country are losing their unique character and residents feel disconnected from their
city and each other, Lakewood stands out.
Lakewood is about community and family. Its residents are passionate about the common good, supporting every
bond issue even during times of recession, and welcoming newcomers with open hearts. Lakewood is also about his-
tory, with generations of Lakewood residents proudly calling the city home, raising their families, graduating from the
schools, and treasuring its long and storied history.
And now, Lakewood possesses an opportunity that it has not seen in decades.
Today presents an opportunity to honor its past while looking steadfastly into the future. In one of our team’s focus
group meetings with local residents, a Marlowe homeowner said about the redevelopment project: “I want this to be
a place where my grandchildren raise THEIR children.” That is the goal: a new development that honors the past but
is designed for the future.
It is the CASTO/North Pointe Team’s pleasure to put forth a vision for the future of Lakewood.
We project an estimated $70 million mixed-use
project with green community space, a wealth
of residential offerings, new Class-A office I want this to be a place

space, local and regional retail (see Exhibit B)
and ample parking. Everything is designed to where my grandchildren will
raise THEIR children.
integrate into the existing fabric of the commu-
nity, adding vibrancy, economic development
opportunities, entertainment, and a place for all
Lakewood residents.
The project will not just be financially sustainable, with the resources of CASTO and Pace Financial involved, it will be
environmentally sustainable. Features include cutting edge stormwater management, and an ongoing exploration into
the use of on-site solar power. Beautiful public spaces will provide a safe and vibrant backdrop for community gather-
ings and celebrations, as well as everyday users.
All of this will be executed by a team which has the experience and resources to make it happen.
We believe we possess a unique combination: CASTO, an Ohio-based developer of complex, successful urban proj-
ects around the country … North Pointe Realty’s office building expertise gained in the development of more than
40 projects throughout Northeast Ohio, as well as its long-standing local relationships with the Lakewood business
community … Dimit Architects’ local presence and stellar design skill-set … Whiting-Turner’s national scale and current
Lakewood experience … cutting-edge landscape design and stormwater management design by the EDGE group … the
historic preservation acumen of Sandvick Architects.
Together, our firms have more than 300 years of experience in our respective fields. We are ready to bring the vision
and execution necessary to make this rare opportunity … in this rare community … a reality for generations to come.
We thank the City of Lakewood, the Advisory Committee, and the residents of Lakewood for the valued
opportunity to present this Proposal to you.

Best regards,

 LAKEWOOD DOWNTOWN MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Executive Summary:
The CASTO-North Pointe Realty development team is pleased to present our concept plan set forth below
and enclosed with this submittal. Our plan responds to the development objectives outlined in the RFP, the
Lakewood market analysis and initial feedback from focus group meetings with the Downtown Lakewood
Business Alliance and neighboring residents, and features the following attributes:

• A
 transformative mixed use project featuring office, retail and residential uses which aim to enhance the
vitality of Downtown Lakewood in a variety of spaces from character rich historic rehabilitation to brand
new class A office space.

• R
 esidential offerings to meet the demands of all market segments; from brownstone style residential
buildings to 3-4 story garden buildings and upscale midrise residential units.

• An appropriate concentration of densities and uses in areas that are compatible with the existing
community fabric.

• A
 newly created and activated public space that is visible and accessible from Detroit Avenue. The
development team recognizes the significance of the opportunity to create a unique environment that
will not only enhance the public experience in downtown Lakewood, but tie into the system of public
spaces throughout the community.

• A
 three level parking garage lined with residential buildings on Belle and Marlowe Avenues, contributing
to the flow and aesthetic of the streetscape, while providing the necessary parking for both the project
and community.

• An ability to attract, capture, retain and grow existing and/or new businesses to Lakewood,
providing significant economic growth for the City.

• The
 opportunity to incorporate sustainable development practices such as integrated stormwater
management, and the exploration of a solar facility which could potentially create a renewable energy
facility generating approximately 300,000kWh per year, equating to the greenhouse gas emissions of
approximately 50 passenger vehicles over the course of a year, or the CO2 emissions from an entire
railcar of burned coal.

 LAKEWOOD DOWNTOWN MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT CONCEPTUAL DESIGN

Our vision for the Downtown Lakewood Development is a thriving new development of high design quality that meets
the needs of the community, enhances current assets, and better positions Lakewood for the future.

The Downtown Lakewood Development will strike a balance between a dynamic mix of uses: residential, Class A office,
retail, entertainment, and thoughtfully planned parking. In keeping with the Lakewood Community Vision, the devel-
opment will be sensitive to current neighborhoods and build community connections through engaging public spaces,
multi-modal connections, interpretive art, landscaping and eco-conscious features.

There has been little-to-no brand new office development in Lakewood in many years, and now … the time has come.
Office users contribute to the vitality of any project, but this use will do even more: it will provide economic benefit to
the city, provide a welcome place to Lakewood business owners who are currently leasing space in other communities
but want to be in Lakewood, and will drive the use and support of the residential and retail aspects of the project. To
date, our team has held productive discussions with one potential 50,000 square foot office user, and will continue to
do so with other prospective tenants. Additionally, we believe that many physicians and other medical-related tenants
who were previously in Lakewood will want to return and will be in search of medical office space. Our mixed-use
office tower will accommodate users of different sizes and uses, and is designed to integrate seamlessly into the fabric
of the overall project.

Public Open Space

The dynamic mix of uses will be organized
around an energized system of public open
space enhanced with public art. Over 35,000
square feet (0.8 acres) of public open space
will be activated through daily use and pro-
grammed events. This new open space will be
accessible from all adjacent public streets, pro-
viding safe pedestrian connectivity to the larg-
er community.

Three distinct spaces – The Plaza, The Lawn,

and The Grove – will provide unique environ-
ments that encourage social interaction. The
Plaza will embrace the intersection of Belle
Avenue and Detroit Avenue. The Plaza will en-
hance the nearby retail and entertainment uses in the development. Elevation changes between levels will provide
opportunities for long steps and walls that can be used for seating. All walks will be less than five-percent slope to
maximize accessibility. The primary plaza space at the corner of Detroit Avenue and Belle Avenue will be elevated four-
feet above adjacent street level to create a “front porch” for Detroit Avenue. This space can be utilized for performers
during large events such as Lakewood Summer Meltdown when Detroit Avenue is closed to vehicular traffic.

The Lawn is a 7,200-square foot multi-purpose space designed for daily active or passive recreation by residents,
office workers, and the public. The space will be large enough to throw a ball or hold an outdoor wellness class. The
Lawn will be available for community programming and local partners are being explored. This space can also be used
for larger events (900-1,200 people) with The Plaza at the north end utilized as a stage.

The Lawn will terminate at the south end with The Grove. This space will be elevated three-feet above The Lawn and
provide an intimate, shaded space in contrast to the open lawn. A recirculating water feature will add to the quiet and
reflective qualities of this space. This space will be best utilized by individuals and small groups.

While the three distinct spaces have been designed with varied uses in mind, they will be linked aesthetically with
durable materials that complement the adjacent architecture of the project and the community. These open spaces
will be tied together with an innovative stormwater management approach. Significant stormwater from the site and
building roof drains will be directed to a rain garden in The Grove. This water will be conveyed through a stormwater
rill along the west edge of The Lawn and terminate at a large rain garden feature at Detroit Avenue. This approach to
stormwater management provides an educational opportunity while also demonstrating a commitment to health and
the environment. The rain garden is also envisioned as an ideal space for recognition and interpretation of Lakewood
Hospital’s longstanding role in the history of the community.

 LAKEWOOD DOWNTOWN MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT DESIGN NARRATIVE

Architecture
Preserving the historic character of the neighborhood, the
memory of the old hospital, and the Curtis Block building
are key starting points in creating a new district with archi-
tecture that is native to Lakewood and that its citizens can
embrace.

A retail pavilion with a local anchor tenant will draw activity

from Detroit Ave. into the northwest corner of the site and
into The Plaza. Historic tax credit funding will be sought to
renovate and reuse the classic two-story Curtis Block build-
ing next door. Envisioned for Curtis Block are smaller scale
shops with storefronts that will activate and enhance the pedestrian experience on Detroit. Our team’s discussions with
the Downtown Lakewood Business Alliance revealed concerns that the lack of activity along the Lakewood Hospital
frontage has discouraged pedestrian traffic and disconnected the east and west ends of our commercial core. The vi-
brancy of The Plaza, the retail pavilion, and a restored and occupied Curtis Block will dramatically improve connectivity
and better link businesses and activities to the east and west of the site.

As one moves south into the interior of the development, two buildings flank The Lawn public green space. A twelve-sto-
ry mixed use tower sits on the western edge. The tower is comprised of an active retail ground floor, three floors of
Class A office and eight stories of modern apartments with stunning views of the surrounding area and Lake Erie.
Connectivity to The Lawn and The Plaza will encourage spill-over activity, and pedestrian pathways will draw activity
to the interior storefronts and entertainment space. On the eastern edge, a four-level apartment building maintains
the residential scale of Marlowe Avenue and provides balance to the space. Ourdoor patios and decks will serve as the
apartments’ front porches, connecting them to the street
and neighborhood and integrating the new buildings with
Lakewood’s character and culture.

The Downtown Development will feature new residential

apartment units that are complementary to Lakewood’s
current housing stock, with updated features demanded
by current markets. These features are currently difficult
to find in Downtown Lakewood apartments and houses-
they include open floor layouts, entertainment kitchens,
high-end finishes, abundant daylight, and stunning views.
Units with a higher level of residential amenities including
resident lounges, exercise rooms, rooftop terraces, busi-
ness centers, assigned garage parking, and other con-
temporary features will enhance the variety of housing
options available in the community.

A vehicular drive will break down the scale of the project block size, as well as facilitate servicing and better manage
traffic and pedestrian flow. A three-level 441 car parking garage will serve the needs of the site. Parking will be distrib-
uted with use types, and off-hour parking share scenarios will be explored. The garage will be lined with townhouse
units on three faces that keep with the character and scale of the housing on adjacent Belle and Marlowe Avenues while
integrating with the new townhouses to the south. The North façade of the garage has a cascading green wall which
complements The Grove, the tree-shaded space located just across the access drive.

The southern portion of the site will feature four townhome buildings arranged around a central clubhouse. The south-
ern block will have more low-scale neighborhood character that will seamlessly transition to the current residential
fabric. Like all of the residential offerings on the site, the new townhomes will feature modern design features and ame-
nities including open floor plans, large windows, premium interior finishes, low maintenance exterior finishes and energy
efficient green design.

Our design seeks to balance the many varied goals of the development in a sensitive and harmonic manner. It provides
the density, parking and amenities necessary to support the economics of the project, while also delivering marquee
public spaces and respecting the character and scale of the surrounding neighborhood. We believe we have developed
a design that will be truly transformative but also seamlessly integrated into the existing fabric of the community, cre-
ating a new downtown center to be enjoyed by all Lakewoodites.

Inspirational Images

We will engage with local Lakewood artists in bringing exciting, relevant art to the project. The art will be
vibrant, engaging and interactive, providing delight on a daily basis. Our consultant, Steve Manka, will work
with community arts focus groups to find the most innovative ideas, and we are committed to bringing
those ideas to life.

Suspended benches will provide a unique and innovative way for community members to interact with the project
and with each other. They evoke a sense of motion and playfulness, while providing a natural place for members of
the ENTIRE Lakewood community to gather. Just as the Solstice Steps bring people together in a common space,
so will the suspended benches. They will be especially important to two groups: senior members of the commu-
nity who will walk to the project and can spend the day outside in the sun rather than in their apartments, and
children and families, who will enjoy this feature which evokes a playground feel.

 LAKEWOOD DOWNTOWN MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT SUSTAINABILITY

We are committed to incorporating sustainable development practices in the proposed project. The pro-
posed density of the development makes efficient use of the available land, which is itself a scarce re-
source in Lakewood, while still respecting the scale and character of the neighborhood and preserving a
sizable open space. The location offers excellent walkability and is well served by public transportation,
providing easy access to a full range of services and amenities and limiting the need for automobiles. We
also intend to incorporate ample bicycle racks for the public space and bicycle storage options for the
project’s residents and employees, further reducing automobile travel. Further, with the mix of uses on site,
we fully expect some people to both live and work within the development itself, providing opportunities
for an automobile-free lifestyle.
The public open space will provide many opportunities for recreation and exercise, which we intend to
augment with health and wellness programming options, promoting healthy living and honoring the site’s
legacy. Sustainable native plants will be selected for the landscaping, reducing water requirements and
avoiding invasive plant species, irrigating with reused water as much as possible. The site’s integrated
stormwater management system is a central feature of the public space. In addition to its functional ben-
efits of controlling runoff and lessening the burden on storm sewers, the proposed rill and rain garden will
also place our efforts to manage the site’s stormwater front and center in the public eye, creating aware-
ness and opportunities for education on the importance of sustainable practices. Our team is also explor-
ing the incorporation of a solar facility on the site, which could generate approximately 300,000 kWh of
renewable energy each year, equating to the greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 50 passenger
vehicles over the course of a year, or the CO2 emissions from an entire railcar of burned coal.

37
 LAKEWOOD DOWNTOWN MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT SUSTAINABILITY

The buildings themselves will also feature sustainable materials and features. High-efficiency lighting fix-
tures and controls will be used throughout the exterior and interior, with water-conserving fixtures and
Energy-Star rated appliances in all apartments. Heating and cooling systems will also be appropriately
sized, and plumbing efficiently designed to minimize hot water waste and loss. Low and No VOC paints
will be used throughout all spaces. We are committed to sourcing as many products as possible from re-
gional manufacturers and suppliers, and to a construction waste management program that emphasizes
recycling, salvage and diversion strategies to minimize waste directed to landfills.
We recognize that management practices are also key to maintaining sustainable practices during opera-
tions. We will carefully monitor and manage energy use, and will continuously maintain and evaluate build-
ing systems to insure efficient operation. On-site recycling options will also be available to all residents.

Stifel Nicolaus & Co., Inc.
Tim Offtermatt has over thirty years of experience in public finance and is based in Stifel

Wachovia Securities/A.G. Edwards & Sons, where he managed the 15-state Midwest Region

coordinator of sports, convention center and entertainment facilities finance also specializing
in civic projects and economic development finance. Prior to that, he served as the Assistant
Director of A.G. Edwards’ national Public Finance practice from 2005 - 2007.
After spending three years preparing the City of Cleveland’s budget as a senior analyst/economist finishing that
tenure as Co-Budget Manager, Offtermatt started his investment banking career in 1987. Surrounding a hiatus
from investment banking serving as Chief Financial Officer for the 501(c)3 established to develop the $450

successfully completed transactions as either senior managing underwriter or financial advisor for many major
city, county, school district, and agency clients across the country related to public infrastructure, civic projects,
and economic development.
Mr. Offtermatt developed and implemented the financing plans on major civic projects in Cleveland, Ohio (all

Olympic arena project); Toledo, Ohio (downtown AAA International League ballpark; multi-purpose arena,
convention center); and the Greater Kelly Development Authority (closing U.S.A.F. base redevelopment
finance) among other civic projects featuring sports facilities, economic development, or convention centers.
Also included is significant municipal infrastructure transaction experience with water and sewer financings,
airports, and private third-party related financings such as lease and land development financing arrangements.
Specific financing experience includes general obligation, revenue bond (utility, airport, other dedicated
revenue), corporate bonds, public issues, private placements, 144A distributions, all types of credit
enhancement (bank letter of credit, corporate and public guarantees, municipal bond insurance), long-term and

Dimit. Mr. Dimit was raised in Mahoning and Columbiana counties in Ohio, and took his architectural degree with
