Additionally, the infrastructure would be improved, in that overhead utility lines would be underground, and all four corners of Broadway and Beach would be improved with bulb -outs for improved pedestrian safety and access. The site and public right-of-way improvements would consist of new landscaped areas with street trees, bicycle racks, and wide pedestrian -friendly sidewalks.
