COMMUNITY’S STATED PRIORITIES:
UNIFY THE DISTRICT
SAFE (DRAMATIC IF POSSIBLE) PLACES
GATHERING SPACE
Lighting was community’s #1 issue
Lack of seating was community’s #2 issue
Paving and sidewalk was widely considered an opportunity to mitigate traffic, as was introducing a “gateway” and unifying sides

WHAT HAPPENS NOW?
• Building design is being reviewed by Historic Preservation Review Board.• Retail team is working with design team to ensure storefront spaces are marketable.
• Design team to work with DDOT to determine scope of streetscape elements
• Need DDOT’s input and approvals of streetscape elements
• Ultimately, need coordination and decisions on what, who and how any streetscape elements will be implemented
• Outreach to retailers will not begin until project is more advanced• CBRE is Metro’s retail broker
• Marketing to retailers will not begin in earnest until construction starts
