restaurants, cafes, bookstores, grocery stores, offices, clinics, a
hotel, recreation activities, cultural destinations, apartments, seniors
facilities, community services, parks and open spaces;
(c)
produce mixed-use developments which will result in an urban
environment that is integrated with academic and public activities;
(d)
ensure that, to a high degree, site design and architectural features
are complementary to the setting and architecture of the University
of Saskatchewan;

Introduction
The intent of these architectural controls is to allow for creative design, while
ensuring quality design for development in the Direct Control District 1 (DCD1) that
contribute to a built environment that celebrates the South Saskatchewan River in
the city and aligns with the South Downtown Concept Plan.
1.1
Principles of the South Downtown Concept Plan:
(1)
Support and strengthen Downtown and Riversdale
(2)
Plan the A.L Cole and Gathercole sites together
(3)
Create a distinct identity and sense of place
(4)
Design to be a destination
(5)
Design for development viability
(6)
Appropriate density and building heights
(7)
Remember the past
(8)
Provide for special events
(9)
Ensure barrier-free access
(10) Plan for all day and all seasons use
(11) Ensure a mix of land uses
(12) Plan for safety and security
B-4
1.2
Key elements for design in the South Downtown Concept Plan:
(1)
Landmarks
(2)
Strengthen connection and access
(3)
Mix of land uses
(4)
The riverfront as a stage
(5)
Ambient and special event lighting
(6)
Heritage and environmental interpretation
(7)
Streetscape and public art
(8)
Controlling development and design
1.3
Commercial Character Zone (Red)
(1)
The Commercial Character Zone (CCZ) is the largest character zone within
the South Downtown Local Area Design Plan (Plan). It is located between
the Riverbank Park Character Zone (RPCZ) and the Downtown and
Riversdale commercial areas. The CCZ blends into the Residential
Character Zone (RCZ) on the west, the Senator Sid Buckwold Bridge, and
incorporates the existing Meewasin office at its easternmost extent.
(2)
Since the incorporation of the City of Saskatoon (City), properties in this
zone consisted of the Gathercole site, parking lots, and naturalized areas.
In more recent years, this zone has seen significant development on the
east side of the Senator Sid Buckwold Bridge, including: the Remai Modern,
Remai Arts Centre - Persephone Theatre, a hotel, a condominium building,
a public plaza, and office buildings equipped with ground floor retail.
(3)
As the CCZ spans both sides of the Senator Sid Buckwold Bridge,
appropriate visual and physical linkages between the east and west side of
the bridge are required so that the South Downtown appears as a coherent
whole.
(4)
The continuity of the Riversdale and Downtown Business Improvement
Districts into the CCZ is considered an important requirement in ensuring a
unified commercial development plan.
B-5
(5)
In areas within the DCD1 district where high-rises are permitted, sensitively
design new high-rises to act as landmarks for the lower-rise developments
closer to the river.
(6)
The following photos show the CCZ as of July 2022:

Residential Character Zone (Blue)
(1)
The RCZ generally is defined as an area bounded by the CCZ on the east,
the existing low density residential area of Riversdale on the west, the
RPCZ on the south, and the Business Improvement District of Riversdale
on the north. Low-rise apartments, condominiums, and town homes will be
the major type of development within this zone, with some opportunity for
accessory ground floor commercial as a secondary use.
(2)
The built form in the RCZ acts as a transitional area. Where buildings rise
in height from the low density residential area in Riversdale, to multi-unit
residential throughout the RCZ, and gradually increasing to higher buildings
in the CCZ.
(3)
Reflect the architectural style of the character homes of Riversdale in new
multi-unit development in the RCZ to encourage a transition in architectural
style between Riversdale and Downtown.

Riverbank Park Character Zone (Green)
(1)
The RPCZ is defined as the area between the South Saskatchewan River
and Spadina Crescent, or the area 60 metres inland and parallel to the 1991
shoreline. Development within this area will be limited to certain key
locations, ensuring this area has a similar character to other publicly
accessible sections of the riverbank in the City. As such, the RPCZ's
character is mostly defined by the landscape - the existing City of
Saskatoon Park system and the South Saskatchewan River.
(2)
Understanding that the riverfront in Saskatoon is a stage for events year-
round, is key to the development of any sites within the RPCZ. Boat tours,
dragon and power boat races, concerts, cultural and environmental
interpretation, firework displays, skating, curling, and a variety of festivals
take advantage of the Meewasin Valley Park system. It is anticipated and
desired that these types of public events will be enhanced by any
development within the RPCZ.
(3)
Protect the natural and heritage resources and/or enhance the leisure and
educational use of the Meewasin Valley through improvements to the
RPCZ.

2.0 Introduction
The Broadway 360 Development Plan was prepared in 2009 and is a
comprehensive development plan for Nutana's Broadway area that will help shape
future public and private sector decisions and investments, including guidance on
the uses and form of development that is appropriate for this area. The Broadway
360 Development Plan recommended that an Architectural Control District (ACD)
be implemented to complement the development framework (B5B district). The
guidelines contained in the ACD will provide direction to for the quality of design for
built form elements. The guidelines will ensure that new buildings reinforce and
enhance the best qualities of the Broadway area. The guidelines are intended to
provide for flexibility and not be prescriptive and rigid in their interpretation.
These guidelines will be applied in the following:
(1) New construction; and
(2) In circumstances where the City of Saskatoon is providing funding for exterior
and facade renovation through the Heritage Conservation Program or Façade
Conservation and Enhancement Grant or any City of Saskatoon program that may
be funding the project (i.e. vacant lot program, affordable housing).
(3) Projects that are deemed minor in nature and funded under Façade
Conservation and Enhancement Grant for the Building Refresh Incentive are
exempt from following the guidelines.
2.1 The Five Pillars of the Broadway 360 Development Plan:
(1) Towards a Sustainable Nutana & Saskatoon
(2) Healthy Neighbourhood = Healthy Broadway
(3) Leveraging Distinct Character
(4) Well Mannered & High Quality New Buildings
(5) Pedestrians First

3.0 Theme: The Broadway Heritage Core
The Broadway area comprises the heart, town centre, and main street of the
Nutana community. Established as a temperance colony in the late 19th century,
Nutana is one of Saskatoon's most desirable neighbourhoods, due in large part to
its historic small-town charm, the success of Broadway Avenue commercial area,
and the proximity to the Downtown and the University of Saskatchewan.
Neighbourhoods are constantly changing and evolving, and Broadway Avenue
and the Nutana Neighbourhood is no exception. At the heart of Saskatoon's
original neighbourhood, the Broadway area has been the social and commercial
core for over 125 years. In more recent years, the area's central location, and its
unique historical street character, and the distinct mix of restaurants and stores
has attracted new residents and visitors to the neighbourhood, contributing to the
revitalization that has made Broadway Avenue a regional destination.
Notwithstanding the intent of this document to control aspects of architectural
development in the Broadway commercial area, the controls or guidelines provide
direction for the quality of design for a variety of built form elements. As a means
for ensuring that new buildings reinforce and enhance the best qualities of the
Broadway area. Therefore, the projects must support the theme of "Broadway
Heritage Core".
4.0 Development Principles
A central objective is to ensure that new buildings reinforce a coherent,
harmonious, and appealing urban environment, as well as contribute to the
enhancement of the public realm. Informed by the consultation process and rooted
in good planning and urban design practice, the key principles include:
(1)
Protecting heritage resources and retaining their visual prominence.
(2)
Protecting and strengthening established low-rise residential areas and
ensuring compatible infill development and sympathetic developments in
adjacent higher density areas.
(3)
Ensuring base building conditions that form an appropriately scaled and
designed street wall that reinforces the desired character at the street level.
(4)
Ensuring appropriate building massing and height taking into consideration
existing and permitted heights; proportional relationships to streets; and,
visual and physical impacts on pedestrians and adjacent areas.
C-7
(5)
Ensuring that new developments provide for appropriate transitions
between areas of differing intensities and scales.
(6)
Reinforcing important intersections and corners through massing and
design.
(7)
Well designed and articulated buildings that positively contribute to the
quality and animation of the streetscape and the overall defining character
and image of the area.
5.0 Design Guidelines
5.1 Building Expression
Buildings should reinforce a base, middle, and top in their design (Figure D5.1.
Within the first three storeys of a building, a clearly defined base will contribute to
the quality of the pedestrian environment by providing animation, transparency,
and articulation. The body of the building should contribute to the physical and
visual quality of the overall streetscape. The roof should be distinguished from the
rest of the building and designed to contribute to the visual quality of the
streetscape.
Figure D5.1: Depiction of building base,
middle, and top, with appropriate
stepback.
C-8
5.2 Orientation and Placement
Buildings can enhance the pedestrian environment by creating a sense of
enclosure. This is achieved by framing the street with parallel aligned buildings and
providing the appropriate levels of animation and use.
(1)
All buildings should orient to the street with clearly defined entry points that
directly access the sidewalk.
(2)
A minimum of 70% of the front building line shall be located within 1 metre
of the front property line.
5.3 Street Wall
The street wall has the greatest impact on the character of the street experience.
The key design objectives for street walls in the Broadway area ensure visual
continuity, pedestrian scale, animation, and design quality.
(1)
A street wall of a new building should align with those of neighbouring
buildings or have the same setback as the predominant buildings on the
block.
(2)
The height of the street wall should be consistent with historic heights of no
greater than 3 storeys and no less than 2 storeys. Levels above the street
wall should be set back to reinforce a low-rise interface with the sidewalk.
(3)
The height of ground-level floors should be visually prominent and no less
than 4.5 metres for commercial and 4 metres for residential uses.

Broadway
Avenue, a building exemplifies proper
orientation and placement.
C-9
5.4 Heritage Contexts
New buildings on Broadway Avenue should complement, rather than detract from,
the character of older buildings and follow these guidelines:
(1)
New buildings should avoid historical misrepresentation by not replicating
past architectural styles. New buildings should consider and respect the
scale, material, and massing of adjacent heritage significant buildings.
(2)
New buildings should respect the pattern of facade division by ensuring the
horizontal and vertical architectural orders, including windows and entries,
are aligned with neighbouring heritage buildings or the established pattern
on the block.
(3)
New buildings should consider materials and colours evident in existing
heritage significant properties. Building materials should be chosen for their
functional and aesthetic quality. Exterior finishes should exhibit quality of
workmanship, sustainability, permanence, and ease of maintenance.

at the pedestrian scale.
This brick building material and retro
signage are functional and align with
heritage design.
C-10
5.5 Corner Sites
Corner buildings have a greater visual prominence given that they front onto two
streets and frame intersections. To enhance the distinction of new buildings at key
corner sites, modest exceptions to stepbacks and height restrictions should be
permitted to encourage massing and designs that accentuate the visual
prominence of the site.
(1)
New developments on all corner sites should orient to both street frontages.
(2)
Corner entrances should be encouraged wherever possible to address the
two street frontages.
5.6 Storefronts
Well proportioned and designed storefronts can provide animation and visual
interest at the sidewalk.
(1)
To reflect the existing character and context, storefronts should generally
have a frontage in the range of 7.5 metres but not greater than 15 metres.

A row of storefronts on Broadway Avenue
C-11
(2)
Where frontages are greater than 7.5 metres, they should articulate
narrow storefronts in the design of the facade.
(3)
Storefronts should have a minimum of 75% glazing to maximize visual
animation. Clear glass should be used for windows and doors along the
street-level facade. Dark tinted, reflective, or opaque glazing should be
discouraged for storefronts.
(4)
Storefront entrances should be highly visible and clearly articulated.
Entrances should be located at or near grade.
(5)
Storefront signage should be consistent with the signage guidelines but
add diversity and interest to the street.
(6)
Weather protection for pedestrians is encouraged using awnings and
canopies.
5.7 Residential Street Access Units
Where retail is not required, and residential uses are proposed at grade, the
following guidelines apply:
(1)
Residential uses at grade should include individual units accessed from
the street.
(2)
Appropriate front yard privacy measures should be considered such as
setbacks, landscaping, and porches.
A highly visible storefront entrance
located at grade.
C-12
(3)
Access to the individual units should be clearly visible, and the scale,
rhythm and articulation of the street wall should be consistent with the
residential character of adjacent neighbourhoods. Grade level units should
be designed to accommodate live-work opportunities and potential
conversion into commercial or retail uses.
5.8 Roof Treatment
The design of the roof can make an impact on the character of the streetscape,
especially from great distances. Roofs are also seen from other buildings of equal
or greater height.
(1)
The expression of the building top and roof should be clearly distinguished
from the rest of the building through treatments such as stepbacks,
change in materials, cornices lines, and overhangs.
(2)
Mechanical penthouses should be integrated with the architectural
treatment of roofs and/or screened from view.
(3)
Green roofs should be encouraged.
5.9 Above Grade Parking
Wherever possible, parking for new developments should be provided at the rear
or below grade and accessed off the rear lane. However, where parking is
provided above grade within the base building, the following guidelines address
the design and quality of such structures.
A residential unit with an entrance
accessible from the street.
C-13
(1)
Direct access for parking, loading, and service areas from the street
should be discouraged.
(2)
Where an above grade parking facility fronts on a street, the ground level
frontage should incorporate retail, public or other active uses.
(3)
Above grade parking structures should be designed in such a way that
they reinforce the intended built character and blend into the streetscape.
5.10 Material & Architectural Quality
New developments should ensure excellence in architectural design and in the
use of high-grade materials, particularly at street-level. A key objective of the
Broadway 360 Development Plan is to achieve a balance between
consistencies in design quality and street interface, while enabling individual
expression in new developments. Key guidelines for architectural and material
quality include:
(1)
The Broadway area has a rich history of development that is reflected in
the Prairie-style 'main street' buildings that are constructed in a variety of
materials. New developments should seek to contribute to this mix and
variety.
(2)
Building materials should be chosen for their functional and aesthetic
quality and exterior finishes should exhibit quality of workmanship,
longevity, sustainability, and ease of maintenance.
(3)
Building materials recommended for new construction include brick, stone,
wood, glass, in-situ concrete, and pre-case concrete.
Brick building material used in new and
old buildings along Broadway Avenue
C-14
(4)
In general, the appearance of building materials should be true to their
nature and should not mimic other materials.
(5)
Vinyl siding, plastic, plywood, concrete block, darkly tinted and mirrored
glass, and metal siding utilizing exposed fasteners should be discouraged.
5.10.1 Table of Materials
(1)
Recommended Materials: brick, stone, wood, glass, in-situ concrete, pre-
cast concrete.
(2)
Not recommended materials: vinyl siding, plastic, plywood, darkly tinted or
mirrored glass, concrete block, metal siding with exposed fasteners.
5.11 Sidewalk Cafes
Sidewalk cafes enhance the vibrancy of street life, further enable social interaction, and
are major destinations in the warmer months.
Sidewalk cafes should be encouraged throughout the Broadway area provided there are
no conflicts with adjacent land uses and they are able to be accommodated within the
existing sidewalk width dimensions without encumbering pedestrians.
(1)
Where permitting, small sidewalk cafes should be encouraged along
streets with narrower sidewalks as well.
(2)
Sidewalk cafes should be designed to contribute and integrate into the
streetscape.
(3)
Curb bump-outs should be encouraged at all corners to provide for
additional sidewalk cafe opportunities.
A sidewalk cafe situated on a parking
lot that contributes to the streetscape.
C-15
(4)
Rear yard and roof top patios should be directed to properties that are not
directly adjacent to residential neighbourhood.
5.12 Building Lighting
The image and experience at night is an important aspect of any mixed-use area.
(1)
Attractive landscape and architectural features can be highlighted with
spot-lighting or general lighting placement.
(2)
Heritage and institutional buildings, as well as landmark elements such as
public art, steeples, or distinctive rooflines, should be illuminated.
(3)
Subtle night lighting of retail display windows should be encouraged.

wide sidewalk without encumbering
pedestrians.
C-16
5.13 Signage
Signage plays an important role in the overall image of any area. Signs should contribute
to the quality of individual buildings and the overall streetscape. This includes
compatibility with heritage buildings, where appropriate. High quality, imaginative, and
innovative signs are also encouraged.
(1)
The maximum signage area for storefront signs should be no more than
25% of the business storefront.
(2)
Back lit illuminated rectangular sign boxes are discouraged.
(3)
Signage should not obscure windows, cornices, or other architectural
elements.
(4)
Signage should aid pedestrians and drivers in navigating the area,
especially at night.
(5)
Billboards, super boards, and roof mounted signs are not permitted.
Signage contributes to the heritage
character of the neighbourhood and
aids
pedestrians
and
drivers
in
navigation with the added lighting
above.
C-17
5.14 Sustainable Design
Conservation of natural resources and systems should be a primary consideration in the
planning, design, and construction process. To achieve this, all proposed projects should
strive for sustainable building practices. This includes public as well as private
development, and encompasses streets, parks, and buildings.
New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction should not destroy
historic materials, features, and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The
new work should be differentiated from the old and should be compatible with the
historic materials, features, size, scale, height, proportion, and massing to protect the
integrity of the property and its environment.
