Street Typologies

The framework applies three distinct street typologies: Park Promenade, Shared Streets, and Walkways, to support multi-modal movement and service needs. Together, they create safe, navigable pathways for pedestrians and vehicles throughout the development.

  • Park Promenade
  • Shared Streets
  • Walkways
  • Scatter Crossing

Champion a Park Promenade

The Park Promenade which wraps around the perimeter of the neighborhood field serves as a primary pedestrian link through the site, connecting West Temple to 1300 South in a biophilic environment that is restorative, safe, and welcoming.

Enable Shared Streets

These internal streets, shown as pink arrows in the corresponding figure, serve as secondary pedestrian connectors to the Park Promenade. At the same time, they must accommodate emergency vehicles, event loading and servicing, as well as access to parking and loading areas for adjacent buildings.

Establish Ground Floor Walkways

New buildings with a long frontage should establish public walkways to allow additional options for pedestrians to enter into the interior of the site.

Create a 1300 South Mid-Block Scatter Crossing

A mid-block scatter crossing is introduced to ensure seamless movement between the two parcels on either side of the street. Positioned at the heart of the site, this crossing allows people to move diagonally, laterally, and directly across the intersection, improving convenience, walkability, and visibility.

Street typology plan labeling blocks A through L and streets including Paxton Avenue, West Richards Street, 1300 South, West Temple Street, and Main Street. The source map’s North mark and key show a green Park Promenade, pink Shared Streets, dashed purple Walkways, and a yellow Scatter Crossing marker.

Map route description

The plan is oriented north. Paxton Avenue bounds the north side of blocks A and B, with West Richards Street to their east; block C lies directly south. West Temple Street borders the west side of the southern blocks, Main Street borders their east side, and 1300 South separates the northern and southern parcels.

The thick green Park Promenade connects West Temple to 1300 South and wraps around the neighborhood field. Pink, two-headed Shared Street routes cross the internal blocks. Dashed purple, two-headed Walkway links appear within block C, within block D, diagonally through the western interior, and along the eastern interior. The yellow dotted circle marks the mid-block Scatter Crossing at 1300 South.
