E. DESIGN OBJECTIVES <br /> The objectives described below were evolved through the site analysis,community input and results of the Visual Preference Survey.The objectives provide the <br /> basis for the design of the Heart of the City redevelopment district(see Figure II-6). <br /> Burnsville Parkway and Nicollet Avenue Gateways <br /> • Burnsville Parkway and Nlcollet Avenue streetscape improvements will soon be completed, reinforcing these corridors as parkways and gateways to the <br /> Heart of the City. Future buildings should be placed up to the street to shape these gateway corridors. <br /> • Reinforce a connection to the MVTA transit station north of Highway 13 through infill development and streetscape improvements. <br /> 1-35W Bridge Improvements <br /> • Define the HOC district's west entry by integrating improvements to the 1-35W bridge with the Burnsville Parkway and Nicollet Avenue streetscapes. <br /> Intersection of Nlcollet Avenue and Burnsville Parkway <br /> • Through the use of landmark architecture and streetscape treatments,define the Nicollet Avenue/Burnsville Parkway intersection as the primary crossroads <br /> and entry to the Heart of the City Town Center. <br /> Skyline and Bluff View <br /> • Frame views to the Minneapolis skyline with building massing along the north/south streets, <br /> Freeway Edge <br /> • Define the edge of the HOC District, as viewed from the freeway, through building massing and landscaping. <br /> Street Pattern <br /> • Augment the established street network by creating a 300-foot street grid and by defining a hierarchy of streetscape treatments, <br /> Nicollet Avenue <br /> • Reinforce the segment between Burnsville Parkway and Highway 13 as the Town Center Core. <br /> • Express Nicollet Avenue's elevational change through building massing and architectural treatments. <br /> • Reinforce the connection between the HOC District and Civic and Residential uses to the south through streetscape treatments and appropriate land <br /> uses. <br /> Pedestrian District <br /> • Within a 5-to 10-minute walk of the Heart of the City district, intensify the development pattern to create a pedestrian-friendly, compact, mixed-use center <br /> of activity. <br /> Heart of - Design Framework : Background <br />
