BIG IDEA: A western gateway to PD6
How could this BIG IDEA evolve in the future?
How does this BIG IDEA address the themes of the guiding principles?
Connectivity
- A deck built over the freeway addresses the barrier on Shoreline Drive and connects West Gateway to the water through multi-modal connections
- Realigned and graded Magnolia Avenue/Queensway Bridge East-west connection at Aquarium Way directly connects the west waterfront to Rainbow Harbor and the Aquarium
- Consolidation of Chancellor office parking enables more park space and a connected trail along the waterfront at Catalina Landing
Economic Resiliency
- Creates potential for infill development adjacent and on the deck above Shoreline Drive
- Catalina Landing activated with better connectivity and access
Everyone's Shoreline
- Creates more public park space on the water, connected to larger bike and pedestrian trails
- Reconnects West Village to the water
Environmental Resiliency and Sustainability
- Creates opportunity for more green/ natural edges along the water
