RE: Design Review Narrative
Peterson's 76 Station
Project Description
Mr. Peterson proposes to redevelop the existing site by demolishing the existing 76 stations 4 fueling
islands, the fueling canopy, the underground fuel tanks and convenience store. The existing freeway sign
will remain in place as is. He will then construct a new 76 station with 6 fueling islands, new canopy,
new underground fueling tanks and a 10,021 sf 2 -story convenience store. This site is roughly 600'
northwest and across I-5 from the Duwamish River.
Compliance with Approval Criteria
1. Relationship of Structure and Landscape to Site:
a. The new fueling islands with canopy are oriented to be parallel to 48th Ave and between
the 2 approaches. A new 12.5' landscape setback/buffer area is proposed along 48th Ave.
The convenience store and its parking are facing the fueling area to allow for customer
parking in front of the store or they can easily and safely walk from their cars at the
fueling islands into the convenience store. There will also be a rear customer entrance to
accommodate the customers from the commercial truck fueling islands. A pedestrian
walkway will be provided with a bike rack in front of the convenience store from the
front of the convenience store to the offsite sidewalk along 48th Ave. Design includes a
coffee kiosk that will be oriented to allow drive up customers to purchase coffee then exit
the site.
b. Parking is located along the front of the convenience store and is screened by the
landscaping along 48th Ave. Fueling islands area also screened by landscaping along 48th
Ave. A loading stall will be located at the rear of the building near the delivery door and
is generally screened by the store itself
c. The height of the fueling canopy is 18'-10" with a 16'-0" clearance under the canopy. It
is sized appropriately to allow for customer protection while they are fueling their cars. A
corner of the canopy does overhang into the 5' building setback by 1'-11". Per the
Tukwila Zoning Code 18.06.740 eaves may intrude a maximum of 24" into the setback.
The convenience store is sized to maximize the square footage for sales area and storage.
This is achieved with 2 -stories and the building will be landmark Gateway building into
the City of Tukwila from the I-5 corridor. The Northern and Southern sides of the
buildings eaves will overhang the building setback no more than 24" to allow for
modulation. The highest part of the convenience store is 40'-4 /2". This zone allows a
maximum height of 45'-0".

d. Landscaping for the overall development including the commercial truck fueling area will
be achieved by using the new landscape Order #2523. Under Section 18.52.100 Request
for Landscape Modification Item A 2. Clustering and /or averaging of required
landscaping. Due to the needed maneuvering of the fueling truck on the site, the Southern
5' landscape setback/buffer along the I-5 off ramp will be averaged out in other areas of
the property.
e. A Photometric Study of the proposed lighting on site shows minimal off site impact of
our proposed light locations.
2. Relationship of Structure, Site and Building Design to Adjoining Area:
a. The design of the fueling canopy will be consistent with the 76 brand and matches the
uses both behind the convenience store as well as across 48th Ave. The design of the
convenience store and the materials proposed go well beyond the standard fueling station
convenience store look. From the different finish materials being used, the modulation of
the building facades to the roof and eave overhangs, the building will be aesthetically
appealing to the surrounding area as well as the people exiting I-5. The coffee kiosk will
also have this same building look and materials.
