Downtown

As it accommodates future growth, Downtown offers one of the best opportunities to create complete, mixed use, higher-density communities in a way that promotes sustainable practices. Downtown intensification and redevelopment makes efficient use of land and makes the best use of existing infrastructure. It provides for options that enable active transportation alternatives. Downtown’s transformation will reflect its importance as the city’s preeminent complete community. In so doing, Downtown will offer an unparalleled urban environment and a high quality of life for all who choose to live, work, visit, learn, lay and invest there.
