  4. Rear of food store (shed roof off rear of store w/ columns, columnar trees to buffer)
  5. North/green side of bank driveway,
  6. Arch character – look at front porch – does center section come forward?
  7. South end of building 5.
  8. Bank shift second floor from south side to north and connect by steps to green (visible).
  9. Would like a strong pedestrian connection (green to Building 5, interior north/south connection) made visible by stamped concrete.
