Corridor Planning
Whether transit, open space, commercial or trade, corridors are unique environments that connect people to places via multiple modes of transportation. Some are destinations unto themselves, while others are a means to an end. Those that remain the most memorable have often maintained some element of their history or purpose and endured through community development cycles that perceived them to be somewhat obsolete in light of evolving development patterns.
Although commercial corridors, in particular, are rarely viewed as affectionately as a downtown district, they are the glue that binds the various parts of a community together. Some are an economic engine, others a host environment for commerce and industry, and still others a shared public amenity. And while often rife with challenges to redevelopment, Principals of Ricker | Cunningham have collaborated with multi-disciplinary teams of community advisers to design solutions and strategies that allow them to adapt to changing market conditions, economic and trade policies and consumer preferences.
