Pedestrian friendly
- 16+ feet of walkway on either side
- no more than 30 feet for vehicular
space in the middle.
- Buildings frame the circulation
- shade trees
- Framed views
- slow traffic on cross streets
- no traffic allowed on certain roads
- bricked pedestrian street sets it
apart from vehicular street
Building heights are in alignment
Certain voids allow for framed views and porous circulation
Detail sets site apart (art, signage)
