  3,900 Square Foot Car Wash
 
Description

Located on a limited site with many environmental restrictions and code setbacks, Maritime Car Wash sought to find a presence within Annapolis. Of the 2.17 acre site, only 1/4 of an acre was developable. Sigma maximized the use of this area for both building use and parking, while still preserving and enhancing the steep slopes, stream buffer, and forests remaining on the site. This was done through fingerprinting the building and parking within the sensitive site, as well as mitigating the impacts to the slopes and forests. Sixty percent of the site was placed within a forest conservation easement. Extensive plantings were located both along the existing roadway and the steep slopes and provided an instant oasis within this corridor. The building was multi-storied to maximize the available space, and along with modern architectural treatments, showcased the building. The environmental considerations made permitting difficult, but Sigma was able to navigate the regulatory process in record time.
