Site 1 is very long but not as wide as the other two sites. At the front of the site on King Street, it is sandwiched between two buildings that are about the same height, which was estimated to be about 8 metres. At the back there is a more narrow street and the site is sandwiched between the same building on the right but there is a parking lot on the left. Across the street there is a memorial park. The height of the surrounding buildings does not vary much - the height of the tallest building is probably at most 2 metres taller than the samlelst building.
The facades of the neighbouring buildings are all quite different in style, but the buildings are rely on a horizontal arcade type roof that runs along the street front. This is how the shops are identified. It could be interesting breaking this horizontal element with a vertical wall, which would stand out.
