| Description: |
Median and streetscape upgrades are an important component of redevelopment, and comparisons between the “before” and “after” views can result in stunning visual impacts that, in turn, spur private investment within the surrounding area. Aiming to achieve this effect along critical Eastside corridors, the CRA has finalized design plans for the overhaul of three medians near the intersection of E. University Avenue and SE Hawthorne Road. The project will install low maintenance, Florida-native plantings in the medians and will greatly approve the aesthetic of the surrounding area. Additionally, through the use of a unified material palette, the redesigned medians will serve to visually link East Gainesville to other areas in and around the City’s urban center. |
