Small Toolkit

most affordable. temporary. easily deployable.

The small toolkit is the easiest way to make quick and affordable improvements to your main street or downtown. This toolkit utilizes simple strategies such as paint, traffic delineators, and vegetation to achieve high-impact improvements. Please think of the small toolkit as a way to test out some ideas that have been discussed previously, but there was some uncertainty as to their potential success. Since this toolkit is temporary and easily deployable, it can be tested for a few months and made permanent as residents voice their opinions. This toolkit is also primarily intended to bring some color and brightness into the main street or downtown to create visual activity. Simple strategies bring a sense of intention to reclaimed parking stalls and outdoor spaces, intending to convert what might have been hastily installed elements in response to COVID-19. As with each toolkit, the exact location of different components will be site-specific.
