At 75’ high and approximately 55,000 SF, the 87-unit Framework averages 350-SF/unit, with 3,600 SF of ground level commercial space at the southwest corner. An active fault line running diagonally along the property’s western corner from south to north created a unique opportunity to enhance its corner as landscaped/hardscaped areas and introduce a setback to a busy intersection along 13th and F Streets, while reducing usable floor area to 7,000-SF/floor. The building’s west façade features a sawtooth profile formed with textured black aluminum panel and floor-to-ceiling window wall, maximizing southwestern exposure and views of the new 4.1-acre urban park located directly south of the site.

All with jurisdictional or ownership interest in the North Embarcadero area, the agencies joined forces with JWDA and other consultants to create a vision for the future development of the area. The resulting North Embarcadero Visionary Plan provides an improved Broadway Pier and plaza space, new piers, and a historic wharf at the County Administration Center. Further improvements include streetscape enhancements such as modern lighting, repaving, trees and landscaping, furniture, and public art. The design added almost 12 acres of park and open space and calls for seven acres of gardens, five acres of hardscape and landscape area, and more than 1,700 trees. Following a highly collaborative public engagement process with over 20 public workshops, the design and ownership teams worked diligently to resolve the functional complexities inherent to a working waterfront while creating an attractive and comfortable environment for San Diego’s residents and visitors.

Principal Rick Rounds, AIA Principal with JWDA since 1994 Rick Rounds is a native San Diegan who moved with his family to a small, woodsy resort town in Idaho when he was a child. He realized early that the construction process interested him, but it was a drafting class in high school that solidified his interest and aptitude for architecture. Working two jobs during the summer and part time jobs through the school year while obtaining his 5-year degree at the University of Idaho, he never forgot Southern California people, culture, weather, and activities of his youth. The day after his 1987 graduation, Rick migrated south to a job opportunity in Palm Springs. One year later he returned to his San Diego roots and began his career at JWDA. As a Principal and Senior Project Manager, Rick’s work ethic endures, and empowers him to provide coordination in all project phases, from programming through the completion of a contract. His expertise comprises master planning, site planning, schematic design for new construction, repair and renovations to working drawings, and construction management and administration. His sector experience includes hospitality, residential, mixed-use, governmental, and institutional projects. A seasoned manager, Rick is equally adept in communications with clients, jurisdictional agencies, and all design and construction associates. Education: - B.
