10 | North Main Corridor Improvement Plan development. This includes churches - The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, Woodlawn Baptist Church, Rocky Mount Church of God, and the Rocky Mount Seventh Day Adventist Church, schools – Benjamin Franklin Middle School and the Gereau Center -, and public services and goods – Grassy Hill Natural Area Preserve, Rocky Mount Police Department, Rocky Mount Fire Department, the Franklin County YMCA, and the Essig Recreation Center.

Taken together, these disparate uses present a corridor that, in large part, showcases strip development characteristics. This has resulted in a corridor that does not reflect a strong character, leaving the area feeling bland, a stark contrast to the character that has been built in Rocky Mount’s downtown. However, this type of development has given rise to areas that cater to a specific desire, demand, or use, which, if knit together through placemaking efforts, can create a less segmented corridor and more integrated into the core of Rocky Mount. Creating character in a strip corridor is a key challenge of this project.

1.4 Building Analysis Along the North Main Corridor

Physical Inventory & Assessment

As part of the preliminary Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program application process, the Project Team conducted an inventory of open spaces and buildings, both vacant and occupied, as well as an assessment of the operating businesses’ location along the North Main Corridor. This assessment included determining each structure’s overall condition and whether the building was currently in use or occupied. Below is a map that represents buildings and structures along North Main Street in their current condition, “blighted” showing signs of physical deterioration, or “non-blighted” structures that are in good condition.

F Neighborhood Connectivity

An important element of this project is to create a sense of connectivity between the neighborhood on either side of the North Main corridor. This is done in three parts. The first of which is through the creation of crosswalks. This creates opportunities for pedestrians to safely cross the street, something that is hard to do in the roadway’s current configuration.

Crosswalks promote pedestrian traffic along the corridor and aid in fostering the use of alternative transportation (walking, biking, scootering) instead of taking a car. The second element is street calming measure (which will be covered in more detail in the next section) which work to slow drivers down. This also aids in creating a safer environment for pedestrians, which in turn fosters people’s ability to walk between the neighborhoods on each side of the street. These measures include street tree planting, lighted pedestrian crossings, medians, and taking the existing roadway from a four-lane to a two-lane. The last element of neighborhood connectivity is the creation of multi-use paths and sidewalks along the corridor, this too fosters pedestrian traffic and allows locals the opportunity to commute, recreate, or simply move from one place to the other safely. By implementing each element as part of the CIG project, Rocky Mount can use this stretch of the corridor to showcase the concept’s success and how it could better the entire corridor once future funding is acquired.
