An urban project in Albemarle Counties Small Area Plan for the Rio 29 Area. This project is the first rezoning in the core of the small area plan that will redefine a part of the county that is currently accessed primarily though vehicular transportation but aspires to a pedestrian character. Beginning this project as a land planning and zoning project, we are working to anticipate the design of a site plan that anticipates this future. This aspirational project proposes bold shifts in zoning including parking maximums in place of minimums and developing flexible designs for buildings that transform with the character of the streets.
