Observations The waterfront is in transition from an industrial district into a new neighborhood - - this will not happen overnight, it will be incremental This will require a different way of thinking - - an URBAN way of thinking Making the Waterfront District all it can be will require a master planned approach - - this cannot happen one project or deal at a time Early projects will need to be catalysts for future investment It will require a public-private partnerships
Planning Goals GOAL 1 Downtown Revitalization To invest in the waterfront as a unique asset in support of the revitalization of Downtown Stockton. GOAL 2 Creating a Waterfront Neighborhood To create a plan for future North Shore and South Shore neighborhoods. GOAL 3 Environmental Remediation To use public and private investment to remediate the environmental impacts of former waterfront industrial uses.
Land Use Principles LU 1: Neighborhood Building All public and private investments in the waterfront District should contribute to the development of a livable and quality waterfront neighborhood. LU 2: Respect Existing Uses New development and investment should be planned to co-exist with traditional waterfront uses as the area transitions into an urban downtown water-oriented neighborhood. LU 3: Variety of Housing Planning should provide a variety of urban housing types, range of affordability and tenancy (ownership and rental). LU 4: Parking District Approach Planning for the Waterfront District should be based on the expansion the parking district to support residential, entertainment, hospitality and commercial uses.
Urban Design Principles UD 1: Urban Form New public and private investment should reintroduce the traditional block and street pattern while shaping and activating public spaces. UD 2: Neighborhood Connections to the Waterfront New and existing streets should enhance neighborhood access to the water s edge retail amenities, promenades and parks. UD 3: Waterfront Edge as Neighborhood Connector Waterfront promenades and walkways should facilitate bicycle and pedestrian connections between neighborhoods and transit. UD 4: Urban Character New development should reflect the downtown urban setting in terms of density, character and pedestrian orientation. UD 5: Waterfront Setting New development should reference the waterfront s maritime and industrial heritage and aesthetics.
Economic Development Principles ED 1: Public-Private Approach Planning and implementation concepts should assume a public-private partnership approach to planning and developing the Waterfront District. ED 2: Build on Previous Investment New development should build on the extensive public and private investment in the Waterfront District. ED 3: Brownfields New uses and phasing of investment in the Waterfront District should be based on constraints and costs of environmental remediation.
