EXHIBIT7_PaloAlto_Building_7_Shade_Sail_Reference.pdf

This document is an Exhibit for a VA project (Project Number 640-24-11) to improve patient experience at the Palo Alto medical facility, specifically focusing on installing shade sail structures in the SCI Courtyard of Building 7. The project area is located near Loop Road and involves creating shaded areas around key courtyard spaces, including regions adjacent to the F-126 Dining Room, raised planters, and a vegetable garden.

The exhibit includes three pages: an aerial site map showing the project location within the larger campus, a detailed courtyard layout highlighting specific "Areas to be shaded" with red-hatched zones, and a reference image of a similar shade sail structure with triangular fabric sails in blue and orange colors mounted on white support poles. The proposed shade structures will provide outdoor comfort for patients, creating protected spaces near dining and garden areas with landscape elements like grasses, trees, and walkways.
