Update on Mississippi Riverfront Pathway Project Page 2 <br /> July 6, 1995 <br /> characteristics. The linked district attempted to merge the highway, <br /> • downtown, and river districts by utilizing the streets and/or focal points at <br /> certain intersections. <br /> The three design options were referred to as: <br /> • The River District <br /> • The Linked Plaza <br /> • The River Drive <br /> Each option was presented in a manner relating to the three patterns and <br /> relationships described earlier. For example, the River District option was <br /> presented as part of a "distinct" district diagram. The focus of this option is <br /> on the river with connections to streets. The Linked Plaza option represented <br /> an attempt to link the river with the downtown district and with the highway <br /> district by providing a stronger link through streetscapes, etc. The notion <br /> here was to present a pathway that is less like a riverfront and more like a <br /> downtown. <br /> Comments and critiques from the workshop attendees followed. Based on <br /> this feedback, Hoisington Koegler will revise its design options into a concept <br /> plan with related costs. This concept plan will be presented at the Public <br /> • Workshop on July 20, 1995. <br /> Now that three design options have emerged, individual meetings with <br /> property owners along the one and one-half block area, from the Otsego <br /> Bridge to King Avenue, have been scheduled. The initial meetings took place <br /> on July 5, 1995; the second opportunity for property-owner meetings is <br /> scheduled for July 11, 1995. <br /> In closing, I would encourage your continued participation and support for <br /> this project. <br /> 411 <br /> S.EDA\HRA\MRPPJL6 <br />
