Visions for the Our Town Planning Process
February 6, 2014
Chat Session w/Paul Andersen
What do we want to see in the downtown master plan?
- Access to the rivers
- Hotel site: Do not lose visual access to the river
- Town square: Pedestrian-only, fountain, benches
- Move Town Hall out of Triangle Park
- Vacate old Highway 82 to connect Triangle Park with the river property
- Connectivity from new Highway 82 to downtown via tunnel, overpass?
- Grocery store, drug store, hardware store
- More day care options, especially for newborns
- Live/work space: lower rents, combine space with business incubator
- Activities to keep kids in town after school, programs for teens
- Community/non-profit cultural center (similar to 3rd St. Carbondale)
- Performing arts space on river for art and music, rented out for events
- Walkway along Frying Pan River connecting swinging bridge to the Conservancy property
- Safe, continuous walkways throughout downtown
- Pedestrian mall downtown with alternate route for traffic; possible service access at Iron Horse building alleyway
- Hotel at Clark’s Market location with parking underground
- Outdoor concert space for “Shakespeare in the Park” type events
- Attractions and retail mix that supports sophisticated consumers
- Kayak park similar to the one in Salida
- Confluence Park like in downtown Denver – community gathering place, kayak park with demo equipment provided by REI (Recreational Equipment, Inc.)
- Fisherman’s Park below Riverside Grill/Taylor Creek fishing shop
- Connect Riverwalk Path to Confluence Park
- Market/grocery store (the size of Roxy’s at AABC) in former Bristlecone space – visibility from Highway 82
- Parking on town property/park near the roundabout
- Mexican restaurant at former Bristlecone or Clark’s Market space
- Movie theatre like the Crystal or outdoor projection screen
