PROJECT: Master Sign Plan for Children’s Health
EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY:
On behalf of Children’s Health System, CBRE and Babendure Design Group are
requesting approval of a Master Sign Plan for the rebranding of Children’s Medical
Center to Children’s Health. The existing facility is located at 470 E. State Hwy.
114, Southlake, Texas.
REQUEST
DETAILS:
Children’s Medical Center has expanded and rebranded to Children’s Health. The
rebrand encompasses the health system’s more than 40 locations, including its
Southlake campus. With expanded services in Southlake, the campus is seeking
signage that clearly communicates the new Children’s Health brand and the
expansion of its specialty services to include After Hours Urgent Care. With the
addition of the Urgent Care Services, additional traffic is anticipated both to the site
and within the site, requiring the existing site entrances to be enhanced for the
patients and visitors coming to the facility. The proposed Master Sign Plan (MSP)
is intended to replace the MSP that was approved for Children’s Medical Center in
2010. The proposed MSP includes sign regulations for a business monument sign,
vehicular directional signs, internal site directional signs, and attached building
signs. The previously approved balloon sculpture in the entry tower of the building
and the restricted parking signs are proposed to remain.
A summary of the sign types requested in the Master Sign Plan follows. The items
with the blue background are either newly proposed or remaining as previously
approved. The items with the pink background are shown as being replaced by
new signage or removed. Please refer to the attached sign plan booklet
(Attachment D) for complete details.
