STREETSCAPES: Recreational Street Long-Term The long-term recreational street proposes a larger takeover of the street and removal of automobile access with the exception of emergency vehicles to produce a pedestrian-focused plaza. By providing a variety of playful elements and structures that can be used in multiple ways, the street can become a much more inhabitable public zone for recreation. It is encouraged to bring on local vendors and groups to set up small events or pop-ups within the plaza space to further enliven the experience.
Bollards installed at entry to plaza to prevent car access. Bollards are removable for emergency vehicle access
Install continuous pavement along entire street to create one open plaza space. Provide painting pattern along primary promenade area to help identify zones for movement or seating
More permanent play structures installed that present a variety of types of play and interaction.
