Project Goals
Develop a framework for the development of mixed-use, multi-modal and unique neighborhoods that support residents, employers and visitors regardless of life-stage, ethnicity or income. Provide more transportation choices, especially for pedestrians, bicyclists and transit users, that improve the overall environment and and improves the quality of life of residents. Encourage the continued development of the neighborhoods of the Washington Avenue Corridor as a destination for living, shopping, arts, dining and entertainment in a way that respects the needs of residents. Ensure that community members have increasing and ongoing methods to have their voices heard and that they have an active role in shaping their neighborhoods. Focus on implementation, ensuring that the communitys desires become on the ground realities.

WASHINGTON AVENUE CORRIDOR LIVABLE CENTERS STUDY DEVELOPMENT I NODES AND NEIGHBORHOODS
RESIDENTIAL PARCELS NODES NEIGHBORHOOD BOUNDARIES The Washington Avenue Corridor serves as the boundary between a number of highly distinctive neighborhoods. We propose to concentrate on the nodes where major north-south streets cross Washington. In doing so, we will create attractive neighborhood centers that accentuate the distinctiveness of the neighborhoods and increase the visibility and brand awareness of each neighborhood throughout the city, while also serving as focal points for development without necessitating residential displacement.
