Abstract
In the fall term of 2015, graduate planning students at the University of Oregon
developed concept plans for the Midtown Neighborhood in Redmond, Oregon.
Redmond wanted ideas for revitalizing Midtown, an area seen as struggling somewhat
given its adjacency to the city’s revitalized downtown core. As part of this project, the city
also asked the student teams to examine the neighborhood through the lens of its Great
Neighborhood Planning Principles, a set of guidelines the city had adopted for new
development, to see if there were ways the principles could be better adapted to existing
neighborhoods.
Common elements such as background research, site analysis, and an overall analysis
of the Great Neighborhood Principles are presented as a synthesis of the teams’
findings. Each team’s vision for the neighborhood is also presented.
