11.3 Riverfront Drive <br /> Riverfront Drive provides the overarching identity for Riverfront District and access to all primary facilities <br /> and parking areas within the development. The overall design and layout of features for Riverfront Drive <br /> should promote an active and safe environment. The streetscape reinforces and strengthens a pedestrian- <br /> friendly retail environment. Interruptions in the continuity of the storefronts will be minimized. Buildings will <br /> engage the street front. An interactive environment will be created where the storefront meets the <br /> pedestrian realm. Retailers should provide for and encourage outdoor uses. <br /> Bus shelters and street furniture including benches, tables and chairs, trash and recycling receptacles, <br /> newspaper racks,bicycle racks,and container plantings should be used consistently along Riverfront Drive. <br /> Where pedestrian circulation paths cross vehicular routes, a change in paving materials, textures, and/or <br /> colors should be used to improve visibility, enhance safety and provide added aesthetic appeal. Mid-block <br /> passages to parking should be clearly marked and easily accessible and provide access to the river trail. <br /> Bicycle parking should be provided at locations that do not obstruct the flow of pedestrians, are easily <br /> identifiable and visible,and convenient to building entrances. <br /> As landfill conditions restrict tree planting,a consistent palette of shrubs and ground cover shall be installed. <br /> Container planting using trees may also be utilized. Wherever plant material is proposed,incorporation of <br /> native and adaptive planting is encouraged. <br /> The dimension of Riverfront Drive from building face to building face will vary and should not exceed 112 <br /> feet at the maximum. A minimum dimension is anticipated to be about 76 feet. The sidewalk width should <br /> be a minimum of 14 feet, where sidewalk dining is anticipated. On-street parallel parking will be provided <br /> where feasible with the exception of the possibility of angled parking provided in the town center public <br /> plaza and around the town green. <br /> . <br /> '� _ ,t :... air ` ., <br /> , .,r'' 1-:,,,, , <br /> 5 , <br /> IAND LANG <br /> RETAIL • SIDEWALK SCAREPARKING STREET PARgNG StSIDEWALK • <br /> • REFAf1 <br /> 164.
