Vision - PPRA Destination Approach for Downtown Revitalization
The downtown theme integrates a complementary set of elements including:
(a) River front design that provides river drive/biking/walking streetscape with cruise/sternwheeler docking wharf, boat docks, boardwalks and distinctive river front landscape;
(b) Retail focus on cultural arts, speciality stores and eateries that offer unique identity and product not found in typical retail shopping centers, creates a broader regional attraction of the patronizing public;
(c) Professional office that focuses on research, software development and finance for companies seeking quiet, attractive working environment for its employees and low-cost living conditions;
(d) Luxury condos integrated into the downtown complex with optimum river views, balconies, high quality design/amenities and surrounding work, shop and play activities; and
(e) Destination enclave offering unique character and charm, year-found recreation, serenity, an indian legacy and get-away life-style, that attracts those vacation families, the business seminar/tech conference attendee with maybe family tag-along, a time-share user, a retiree, the young single/couple new dweller, and senior down-sized couple.
