East-West_Gateway_Great_Streets_Plan.pdf

This is a planning and design document prepared for the City of Florissant, Missouri, detailing the East-West Gateway Great Streets Plan. The document outlines a comprehensive approach to streetscape improvements and placemaking initiatives that serve as a framework for the City Hall Plaza Project. The plan identifies design principles, pedestrian connectivity, and urban revitalization strategies aimed at enhancing the public realm and creating vibrant mixed-use environments. The document establishes preliminary design concepts, site analysis, and recommendations for phased implementation, which will inform the selected design and planning consultant's work on the City Hall Plaza development.

The Great Streets Plan serves as a foundational reference document for consultants responding to the City's Statement of Qualifications solicitation. The plan provides existing conditions analysis, design guidelines, and strategic recommendations that consultants should incorporate into their preliminary designs and cost estimates. The document supports the City's vision for the plaza project and establishes the planning context within which the selected consultant will develop designs and engineering services. The plan references broader regional planning initiatives and streetscape standards that may influence funding sources, including potential grants or public improvement district funding mechanisms, which could support the subsequent full design and construction documents phase.
