Spring of 2010, I had the chance to be a group leader in a department wide charrette addressing mixed use alternatives for Providence City. The simplest observation I had was the need for the re-alignment of the plan for an unbuilt
road, almost tripling the available area for mixed use development. Our group worked very well together in proposing solutions and we created a plan incorporating a commercial plaza/ice skating rink that had the city council excited.
Group: Andrew Noorlander, Aubrey Christensen, Jake Lott, Kevin Linsley, Michael Gottfredson, Neal Barth, Sarah Nelson
We laid out the final boards, which included a development phasing plan and an analysis to show the residential tax revenue increase that would be possible by simply adding loft apartments above buildings of other uses.
