Neighborhood TypesIt's all about context.
Urban Center
Mixed Use
Mixed use areas and building forms combine both residential and commercial land uses. Buildings are placed at the street and are typically multiple stories.
Parking
Parking is accommodated through on-street parking, parking garages, and parking lots located behind the buildings.
Multi-Modal Transportation
There is greater reliance on transportation modes such as transit, biking and walking.
High Pedestrian Activity
A high priority is given to the pedestrian in this context. Uses and forms such as street cafes, window displays, benches and wider sidewalks promote pedestrian activity.
