Downtown Redwood City Connective Elements, 26 October 2004, page 2 of 5 <br /> - signs directing drivers exiting US 101 to the downtown from Veteran'slWoodside, <br /> Woodside/Broadway, and Veteran 'slWhipple intersections. <br /> - Secondary Gateways (signs or markers) indicating entry to the downtown core (with <br /> the Broadway arches being the Primary Gateways) <br /> - signs directing people to six key destinations: County Center, Courthouse, Theater <br /> '. ~. <br /> District, City Hall, Library and CalTrain Station. <br /> " <br /> - signs identifying city and other public parking facilities (e.g. communicating that the <br /> County Center parking structure is available for free public use in the evenings) <br /> This project is being undertaken within a larger context of the redevelopment of downtown <br /> Redwood City. Key redevelopment efforts include the new multiplex cinema project currently <br /> under construction, and a new civic plaza in front of the historic Courthouse. You will provide us <br /> with supporting documents of these projects to inform our work and ensure its consistency with <br /> other downtown improvements. We also understand that you have a budget of approximately <br /> $350,000 for streetscape and pedestrian improvements for Middlefield between Veteran's and <br /> Broadway, also known as Thaerter Way II, and $250,000 for the Downtown Wayfinding sign <br /> program. Our recommendations and designs will be scaled to meet your budget. <br /> Work Plan. <br /> Our work plan takes an integrated approach to the project, developing the Connective Elements in <br /> parallel with the Wayfinding and Sign elements, and bringing them together for integrated <br /> meetings and presentations (see diagram). In developing the wayfinding and sign program, we <br /> propose that Von Kohom & Kitzmiller Signmakers of Redwood City be our subconsultant for <br /> design of specific sign elements. <br /> "~~......_....._--- <br />
