Master Plan

The most important ideas in the Plan are that:

1. The traditional neighborhood structure of the public realm should be reinforced with each new building and each preservation effort;

2. The mix of land uses should be primarily market-driven, and convenient distribution of daily needs within walking distance should be fostered;

3. Streets are for people, not just cars, and dependence on and dominance of the automobile should be reduced;

4. A diverse range of household incomes should be encouraged with dignified forms of both affordable and market-rate housing;

5. The two sides of the Town, divided by Ribaut Road, should be spatially and psychologically rejoined; and

6. Connection to the surrounding natural environment should be maximized, with public access to the waterfronts and clear vistas to the marshes.
