Central Area Design Study

large patio area could be provided along the southern edge of the plaza, providing desirable spillover space. The west wing of the development could incorporate townhouse units. Residential parking and servicing would be provided on-site, accessible by an adjacent rear lane, located west of the site. Parking for townhouse units would be provided through individual driveways, and servicing for commercial uses would be provided at the southwest leg of the site. An opportunity exists to reduce commercial parking requirements in order to make better use of adjacent surface parking lots. Building facades would maintain the rhythm and character of existing heritage properties throughout the Central Area. Please refer to Appendix D: Demonstration Sites for larger versions of all demonstration site illustrations.
