A Downtown catalyzed by a cultural and entertainment hub supported by students and University-related development, and a community or civic hub around the historic post office.
Attributes:
Two distinctive smaller plazas are created.
The first is a gateway at the eastern end of downtown, anchored by retail, cultural and entertainment activities including a hotel, theater and conference center, as well as housing.
The second is a downtown plaza facing the post office. This area would have a mix of housing and office buildings, with retail, and would be expected to be developed later.
Each of these nodes are supported by a public parking garage.
Offices are a smaller component of this scheme compared to Option 1.
The central blocks would be predominantly housing, with retail-ready space along Franklin Street.
Some Victorian houses on the westernmost blocks would be redeveloped.
