The Doubletree Hotel PUD is located on the north -east corner of PGA Boulevard and Military Trail. In October of 2006, the City Council approved an amendment to the Doubletree Hotel PUD to allow for of a 12,900 s.f general drugstore with two drive -thru lanes, and a 154,191 s.f self storage building to be developed on the northern vacant portion of the PUD. Please see the attachments for information relating to the proposed art, its location, and information relating to the project. Should you have any questions or comments or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at 799 -4218. T Y= urban December 3, 2007 RE: ART IN PUBLIC PLACES FOR DOUBLETREE NORTH PUD Dear Richard: Consistent with the requirement of Condition #1 of Resolution 128, 2006, which approved the Doubletree North Planned Unit Development Amendment, please accept this application for the placement of art in public places on the subject site. As you aware, City Council approved an amendment to the Doubletree Hotel PUD which allowed for the construction of a 12,900 square foot drugstore and a 154,191 square foot air - conditioned self - storage building. As part of this development, we will be providing the City required art in public places on the project site. As we are providing the public artwork on site, this project is required, by the aforementioned Condition #1, to submit the art in public places application to the city prior to the issuance of the first building permit. This condition was met through the provision of a check for $88,500 earlier this year to the City of Palm Beach Gardens for placement in an art escrow fund. Currently, the site is under construction. The proposed artwork, "Triads," will be placed on the southern and southwestern elevations of the self - storage building currently under construction. The innovative artwork consists of a series of individually- mounted equilateral reflective and also transparent triangles which are mounted to the building. This installation will create a constantly- changing display of color and color shadows against the building elevation. This changing color display is caused by the use of materials on the artwork. The artist, Mark Fuller of MTFULLER Functional Arts, is a well -know artist who has installations within the City and throughout North America. Mr. Fuller, who is a resident of the City, has recently completed installations in Pinellas County, Florida, and the South County Civic Center in Delray Beach. Full plans and descriptions of the proposed "Triad" artwork is attached 477 S. Rosemary Avenue for your review. Also, attached is the artist's resume.

This installation at Doubletree 2 will create an ever - changing display of color and colored shadows against the buidiing facade. This change is possible through the use of a dichroic coated film which is integrally laminated to the surfaces of the "Triads "; and the observers specific viewpoint combined with the direction of the dominant light source. Consisting of 3 composite acrylic vanes mounted to a metal baseplate, each vane on the "Triad" will cast a colored shadow; the color of which will be determined by the angle of the dominant light source as it passes through the dichroic coating. The design of the "Triad" has been engineered to meet hurricane codes as follows: Wind Criteria: 140mph Exposure "C" FBC 2004 Materials consist of bright finished .25" aluminum baseplate and mounting channels, stainless steel mounting hardware, Acrylite Resist SG TM outer vane panels sandwiching a .125' clear acrylic sheet laminated with a 3M dichroic radiant film.

FUNCTIONAL ARTS Conceptually placed atop a water- sheeting cylindrical series of steps, "THE SPHERE" consists of multiple crescent - shaped fins which are aligned perpendicular to each other at the centerline. A primary support yoke is deep anchored to the foundation and has a 360 degree movement on the X / Z axis (horizontal plane) via a simplicity bearing shaft and collar. Secured to the upper -end of the support yoke, an additional simplicity bearing and shaft collar is mounted to the outer crescent of the spherical fabrication assembly, which will allow the fabrication body to rotate 360 degrees on the Y (vertical rotation) axis. This combination of axial rotations combined with the opposing planes of the crescent fins will allow the spherical assembly to direct itself into the breeze as it finds its path of least rersistance to the prevailing breeze. Constant corrections to the direction of even the slightest breeze provide viewers with a stimulating visual experience. Conceived as having a silver metallic finish with a colored inside leading edge of the fins, the theme of 'THE SPHERE" is relative to the projects namesake of "Lattitudes ". This installation will be engineered to meet hurricane codes as follows: Wind Criteria: 140mph Exposure "C" FBC 2004 As an additional measure for safety under tropical storm conditions, `THE SPHERE" will have adjustable tension restraint cables which will prevent rotation of the spherical assembly on the Y axis (vertical rotation). The nature of forces upon the assembly will allow for horizontal movement to head into the wind. All aspects of the pedestal base will be provided by the project owner. 7" PK"1-C4 Co Gerde H olo* p4k.3 pvl, 0� Z-4 P%4' ILM 04 0 E 6z:" Parcel- Site Over 11 Site Ran PLw PKJXci Cfma�n Cme ©I n {� PVA LAKE I.W.
