Delaware River Waterfront Corporation to Hold Public Meeting for Spring Garden Street Connector Project
(firmenpresse) - PHILADELPHIA, PA -- (Marketwired) -- 05/23/13 --
Wednesday, May 29, 2013, 6:30pm - 8:30pm
Festival Pier, Columbus Boulevard at Spring Garden Street
The Delaware River Waterfront Corporation (DRWC) is currently seeking public input for the design of its next connector street project, at Spring Garden Street, intended to improve the connection between Philadelphia's neighborhoods with the Delaware River waterfront. DRWC has contracted with the RBA Group to design streetscape improvements to Spring Garden Street between Columbus Boulevard/N. Delaware Avenue and 2nd Street, including a new lighting and public art installation under the I-95 overpass and Spring Garden transit stop. The public art will be created by Leni Schwendinger Light Projects Ltd.. This project is intended to enhance connections from Northern Liberties, Old City and Callowhill to the riverfront and ultimately connect to the waterfront trail. The DRWC Connector Street program stems from the Master Plan for the Central Delaware, adopted by the Philadelphia City Planning Commission in 2012 following intensive civic engagement and stakeholder input.
Meeting will open with a presentation from the designers, followed by an interactive session with the design team.
