Denver Streetscape

The following case studies were compiled as part of the Denver Avenue Streetscape Design Project in order to help inform the design process for Denver Avenue’s streetscape.

The first part of this report examines in detail four successful streetscape design projects from various parts of the region and nation. These specific case studies consider specific design elements, the challenges that each streetscape design addressed, and the particular social, economic, or cultural role that each street is designed to serve. The first case study, East Main Street in Walla Walla, Washington, typifies how concerted civic investment along a failing main street can revitalize and reinvigorate a downtown economy. The NW 3rd and 4th Avenues Streetscape Project in Portland, Oregon illustrates how history and culture can be woven into the physical fabric of an historic district. The Barrack’s Row Streetscape Project in Washington, D.C. demonstrates how physical design can help rejuvinate a struggling neighborhood center. Finally, the SW 12th and Montgomery Green Street (Portland, OR) illustrates how streetscape elements can manage stormwater run-off and create ecologically sound neighborhoods.
