FORUM SUMMARY:
Property Situation: 671 State St.
Development Details:
• Cooper & Company is seeking approval of a Site Plan for Block 16, Lot 4, to allow
development of a new single-story commercial building on the southeast corner of State
St. and the State Highway 114 frontage road in Southlake Town Square.
• Total lot area is 36,107 sq. ft. The proposed 5,301 sq. ft. commercial building is smaller
than the 10,000 sq. ft. building allowed under the approved Development Plan for Block
16.
• The Site Plan conforms to the approved Development Plan for Block 16. The modern
exterior architecture of the new building meets the Southlake Town Square Design
Guidelines.
• The building's facade features a series of 3 bays organized around the main entry’s
larger, taller bay. A canopy cover over the wraparound porch on the western and
northern facades pays homage to the outdoor porches which are a feature of many
historical Southlake and North Texas buildings, providing an outdoor social space for
customers, visitors, and employees of the building.
• Building exterior material is predominantly brick with storefront glass. Areas above the
glass storefront are detailed with decorative engineered wood panels. Rear and side
elevations are also brick with some decorative elements. Roof and porch canopies are
metal, with an engineered wood under-canopy.
• The proposed building meets the intent of the Downtown District Guidelines. In addition
to other Town Square precedents, its design is compatible with neighboring Granite
office buildings. The building’s placement on the street adds a new point of interest on
this highly visible corner location.
