Identifying the assets that offer the best opportunities for growth and de-velop strategies to support them. Engage residents, business owners, and other stakeholders to develop a vision for the community’s future. Creation of a new gateway for the area, a prominent entrance to Burnet Avenue, a connection from the Zoo and Avondale Town center.

The visual environment expresses the state of the city and communicates to the visitors: Visual connection from main Avenues will instigate more peo-ple to explore this new node in Avondale. Humans have an inherent need for sensory stimulus tied to our senses and to our natural way of experiencing the surroundings as walking beings.

A city should be a fine meeting place, which invites people to take pleasure in the ameni-ties and social dynamics of the city. More cities across the world recognize the values that an active and diverse public life brings to the central areas. Public life is gradually identified as an economic driver that increases real estate values; make businesses prosper and city centers flourish.

Sidewalks improve access to business and industry for employees relying on public transportation. Reduced crime risk through increased pedestrian traffic, enhanced sense of community through better connections to neigh-bors and businesses. Walkable communities are an essential component of healthy environments for people to live, work, and play.

Striking the appropriate balance between residential and commercial development. More mix of uses can reduce travel to work congestions; increased public safety perception; urban vitality and street life; increased consumer choice; opportunities for social interaction; address inequalities and deprivation.
