Open Spaces & Natural Resources Industrial areas are typically buffered from surrounding development by tree preservation areas or landscaped areas with the type and size of the buffer a function of the activities being performed on the site. Lot Size & Building Placement Lot size and building placement vary depending on development scale and land uses served. Most buildings are located behind large surface parking lots or loading areas. Buildings are encouraged to face the street when possible. Street & Block Pattern Blocks are large and may not have a discernible block structure because of the development scale or access requirements for specific buildings. Lot may be front- or rear-loaded based on the vehicles served (especially trucks) or loading needs. Parking is provided in surface parking lots surrounding the building.
