This project, completed while working at Cuningham Group, identified redevelopment strategies that would help a currently blighted and disinvested corridor in Duluth, Minnesota to fulfill their vision to become a walkable, mixed-use neighborhood center. Recommendations simplified land uses, managed scale transitions, and identified redevelopment opportunities, including introducing a variety of housing types, neighborhood retail, and new parks and open space.
My role in the project included most aspects of the planning process from initial mapping, site analysis, and community engagement, to working with the City’s Public Works department to identify implementable stormwater strategies and recommending the location and character of new public open space.
