<br />HILLSIDE HEIGHTS <br />This district showcases <br />I "';, <br />,,,, ~` a range of housing <br />~~ options and takes <br />;~. <br />advantage of wetland <br />,~~..•- _. views and wooded <br />rolling topography. A <br />F ~ design priority will be <br />~'~ creating a physical <br />connection between <br />Hillside City Park to the north and the <br />large wetland complex on the southern <br />boundary and developing park spaces <br />and a continuous public trail network <br />along the periphery of the wetland. <br />The internal street network connects <br />with the existing street network on <br />adjacent property and establishes smaller <br />organized development parcels within the <br />• district. Housing types respect adjacent <br />uses by scaling down from larger stacked <br />housing near the intersection of 175th <br />Avenue and Twin Lakes Parkway to more <br />detached villa & townhome housing types <br />near the existing single-family uses to the <br />east. <br />Building placement emphasizes the <br />street within the center of the district, <br />taking advantage of long views across <br />the wetland and preserving existing <br />woodlands in the north. High quality <br />streetscapes with sidewalks, boulevard <br />trees and pedestrian scaled lighting <br />should be considered on all streets of the <br />district. <br />DEVELOPMENT CHARACTER <br />Hillside Heights District Vignette Study <br />
