Abstract

With an overall goal of facilitating the revitalization of the Mohawk District, this concept plan provides goals and strategies for the redevelopment of the Mohawk District. By evaluating existing conditions within the Mohawk District, six student teams developed a neighborhood profile including demographic and economic conditions and trends, land-use and area infrastructure, and neighborhood amenities. This profile informed the student groups of opportunities and constraints for redevelopment of the Waremart Site and the District as a whole. From this profile, teams developed concepts for redevelopment of the Waremart Site based around three themes: affordable/mixed-income housing, medical-related, and light-industrial. In addition, teams developed concepts for improvements within the larger Mohawk District to support the overall goals of nodal development. This concept plan synthesizes goals identified by the six student teams into key goals for the Waremart Site and the Mohawk District. Some of these goals are complementary, and some indicate different directions goals could take.
