Phase 3 <br />Phase 3 of the study is the comprehensive report that features bubble <br />diagrams with amenity and programming recommendations which <br />show two alternatives for general, feasible improvements to each of the <br />selected sites. Given the findings from the site assessment, the existing <br />conditions analysis, Commission and Council discussion and community <br />engagement process, this report also provides recommendations for the <br />development of Downtown parks over time, and the foundations for an <br />urban recreational corridor from the Downtown core out to the Bay Trail. <br />The community outreach has resulted in a list of community -preferred <br />amenities and programming for potential future site improvements on <br />sites 02, 03 and 06. The bubble diagrams and recommendations made <br />by SERA were informed by the outreach and community engagement <br />results. <br />As intended, the community engagement portion of this study discloses <br />potential implications for the conversion of Sites 02 and 03 from <br />their current uses (mainly public parking lots) to green, open, public <br />spaces. It is apparent that in addition to the design and construction <br />of a park(s), there are various adjustments and investments, both <br />from the community and for the community, that would have to be <br />made to accommodate a park to Downtown Redwood City. These <br />adjustments and investments will be discussed in subsequent initiatives, <br />mitigation measures, and detailed design of the future park(s) which <br />the community has indicated to be passive, lightly programmed, well <br />connected and sized, green space(s). <br />At right, scenes from the Pop -Up Park. <br />26 <br />DOWNTOWN PARKS SITE ASSESSMENT 6 FEASIBILITY STUDY REPORT <br />0 <br />CQ <br />(D <br />N <br />00 <br />
