In collaboration with the Dewey Avenue Steering committee comprised of residents from the Maplewood neighborhood, RRCDC prepared this community-based Vision Plan for the Dewey Avenue corridor from Driving Park Avenue to Ridge Road. It serves to provide written and visual urban design plans reflecting the goals and ideas of community members for development of their neighborhood and the corridor. The final Vision Plan incorporates ideas suggested by over 110 residents and stakeholders at the Dewey Avenue Community Charrette held in November 2006. The Plan expresses these ideas as elements of good design and planning to create a healthy, viable community and inspiration for the corridorâs development. The process of creating the plan began in 2005 when members of the Maplewood Neighborhood Association first contacted RRCDC. Following the Charrette, the process of creating the Vision Plan was carried out during 2007. The Vision Plan contains overlay base plans, each of which includes design and development recommendations for a segment of Dewey Avenue within the Charrette Area. The Vision Plan also includes a detail of a plan for an alternate design for the Driving Park Avenue intersection, an elevation illustrating potential façade improvements for the mixed-use buildings between Magee and Electric Avenues, and a perspective representing proposed improvements at Ridge Road. The preliminary recommendations in the plan are based on general design concepts which were expressed as important by community members at the charrette. The following document is a synopsis of the full vision plan.
