Scale: 1 inch = 10 feet
NOTES: 1. See-through fence with swinging gates
provide 6-foot wide entrance on the Filbert Street side. A sliding gate provides a 16 foot opening on 32nd Street. Permanent bollards prevent vehicular entry. Somebody from the community will have to take responsibility for opening and closing the gates each morning and evening.
2. Temporary street closures allow for events on 32nd Street (orange cones are shown). This alternative shows the future possibility for a community-sponsored painted pattern on 32nd Street to calm traffic and celebrate temporary street closures and events on 32nd Street.
3. Sidewalks on all sides of the plaza will be 8-foot wide minimum.
