Defining Goals
Encouraging reinvestment in the community and providing cost effective solutions that preserve or wisely use scarce resources.
Inspiring a deeper, spiritual connection with nature and place.
Providing equitable access to natural resources for the benefit of all community residents and preserving cultural connections between people and place.
Sustaining the ability of the landscape to perform ecological functions such as building soil, recharging and cleaning water, cycling nutrients, and enabling biological systems to remain diverse and productive.

Defining GoalsAreas & Elements
3 Main Geographic Areas: The Lakefront The Creek The Park
6 Primary Elements: Pier Bridge Parking and Vehicular Circulation Restroom Facility Spencer Creek Trails and Open Space
Bradstreet’s Landing Master Plan
Defining GoalsThe Lakefront
Clean, preserve, and enhance the beaches and maintain an uninterrupted land-water interface.
Stabilize areas of active erosion.
Celebrate and enhance the pier gateway. Provide beach and pier access that supports a diverse range of
activities and use by all ages and ability levels.
Construct long-lasting improvements that require minimal ongoing maintenance.
Leverage limited local resources to expedite restoration of the pier and pedestrian bridge.
Respect the relationship with adjacent homeowners. Preserve opportunities to view the lake during all seasons and
weather conditions. Enhance the aesthetics and create a unified experience
(theme) with other park improvements.
Bradstreet’s Landing Master Plan
Defining GoalsThe Creek
Improve habitat and expand ecological diversity. Increase water quality within the creek.
Expand views and access to the creek. Link the creek and park with Elmwood Park and nearby trail
networks.
Develop partnerships and continue investments that help advance Spencer Creek restoration efforts.
Offer opportunities for quiet contemplation and commune with nature.
Bradstreet’s Landing Master Plan
Defining GoalsThe Park
Preserve healthy, high quality tree species. Clean runoff from upland areas to protect the creek and lake.
Create a welcoming, attractive entrance to the park for those arriving by car and on foot.
Integrate opportunities for play and exploration (all ages).
Invest in improvements that support both routine use and special programming.
Develop facilities and improvements that are easily adaptable, durable, and maintainable.
Respect, honor, and celebrate the site-specific legacy of place and people.
Incorporate a transition between the park and nearby residences.
