The Boca Raton Pattern Book serves as a design and development tool for property owners in the city, where current regulatory practices and zoning requirements have diminished growth and promoted sub-standard, generic designs that cannot reflect the rich history of Boca Raton. Building on Addison Mizner's legacy of design and vision for the city, the process outlined in the book gives clear and easy to understand direction for a project's site configuration, massing, articulation, architectural style, and promotes variation at the skyline which is currently lacking.
