Street improvements should coordinate with the plaza design for maximum effect. Implementation tit 's ' • Street trees and lights are a high priority due to the street's retail and transit orientation and because of the new park development. While there are blocks with active storefronts, there are also blocks where parking lots and underutilized sites create holes in the streetscape's retail orientation. Street trees would visually reduce these holes until infill redevelopment occurs. • Curb bulbs at California Avenue and Wall Street are a high priority because of the streets' central locations. • Removal of the existing building at California Avenue and development of a park in the same block offer the opportunity for full-block streetscape improvements. It may also be an advantageous time to upgrade all of the sidewalks from Pacific Avenue to Everett Avenue. Everett Downtown Streetscape Plan 33
