Streetscapes
On
November 7, 2001, city staff, property owners, development partners,
design consultants and neighborhood representatives rolled up their
sleeves to tackle the issues related to Streetscapes + Connections in
the South Lake Union neighborhood. Sponsored by the City of Seattle’s
Art, Design, and Planning Commissions, the objective of the afternoon
was tri-fold and ambitious: to develop a coordinated strategy for
South Lake Union’s key streetscapes and connections; to further
develop recommendations from the Neighborhood Plan; and to identify
areas of consensus and coordination on streetscape and connections
issues.

Update:
Using the input from the Streetscapes + Connections workshop,
CityDesign, the urban design office of the City of Seattle, developed
the draft South Lake Union Public Realm Plan, which was issued August
of 2002. The goals of this document include developing a plan for
South Lake Union streets and open spaces consistent with the direction
outlined in the neighborhood plan; the establishment of clear guidance
for private and public actions; and streamlining decision-making in
the public right-of-way, while informing future public and private
design decisions.
