Significant investment in a new transit line, the Purple Line, has begun and the alignment for the portion that will serve the Northern Gateway area will run along University Boulevard, also known as the International Corridor. The International Corridor is a vibrant, diverse retail strip of African-American, South and Central American, Asian, and African businesses that provide essential goods and services to area residents. Along with new investment in transit, the new alignment provides the opportunity to link the corridor to a greater network of improved access and circulation and to integrate streetscape enhancements to a public realm that promotes a multi-modal environment and enhances a unique cultural and neighborhood identity. This report describes the goals, history, and recommendations for the Northern Gateway Strategies for Public-Space and Commercial-Corridor Enhancements (SPACEs) Planning Assistance to Municipalities and Communities (PAMC) project.
