Market wants livable walkable community -

Develop people-centric, community-focused public spaces that accommodate walking, bicycling,and transit in addition to motor vehicle use

Our street network stretches 6,500 centerline miles, making it the largest municipal street system in the United States. As the City’s largest public space asset, covering approximately 13% of our land area, streets reflect and drive the economic and social vibrancy of our neighborhoods.
