Additional residences near a <br /> Swift stop will increase ridership and support for local businesses and will make the <br /> area more active and secure. As a general rule, about 2,000 residences are required to <br /> support a modest cluster of neighborhood-oriented businesses, such as a small grocery <br /> store, drug store, laundry, family-style restaurant, or coffee shop. If the area within a <br /> quarter mile of a mixed-use node includes 1,000 dwelling units (dus), for example, then <br /> about half of the customers for those shops can access the businesses on foot. The <br /> residential neighborhoods on either side of the corridor are sufficient to provide the <br /> additional customer base needed. <br /> There are already a number of multi-family residential developments at or near the <br /> station area nodes, and most nodes contain over 600 dwelling units in their quarter mile <br /> Page <br /> 24 <br />
