A Unique Community of Friends and Neighbors In a Beautiful Small Town Setting…

Multi-colored bricks, similar to those framing the entrance to the library, will be used along the Main Street and highway

The town of Richmond is cradled by the Bear Mountains on the on the east, and opens to the bounty of Northern Cache Valley on the west. Residents and visitors alike are awed by the striking sunsets and colors of the changing seasons. Friends may wander across Main Street to chat on the library steps or meet at the aisles of Theurer’s as they shop for their Sunday dinners. Children can easily ride their bikes to school or to a friend’s house. Richmond enjoys the luxury of a safe, quiet community.

Adding a building on the east side of the bank will strengthen the continuity of the building facades. Crosswalks of bricks reminiscent of the library will emphasize the pedestrian right-of way.

Sidewalks will be widened and curb cuts used to calm traffic. Street trees and light posts will give the downtown corridor a more regular cadence. Banners, benches, and flowers will create a more comfortable pedestrian experience.
