  Master Plan Dover, Kohl & Partners Urban Design, 1995 www.doverkohl.com Port Royal has areas that were developed prior to World War II which retain a small town urban pattern, as well as areas that were developed later following a suburban sprawl pattern, and still more areas which await the first generation of development. The Traditional Town core of Port Royal is defined in this Master Plan as that area which is already 
developed in a traditional pattern (centered on Paris Avenue) plus
several adjacent areas which should be developed or logically
redeveloped following the traditional pattern. "Undiscovered" by
outsiders for many years, the Traditional Town core is one of the
greatest assets of the community. Here the hometown & maritime
images are established; here the neighbors gather for special
events; the collection of historic and architecturally appealing
buildings is concentrated here; the infrastructure is the most
efficient; the layout itself is most resilient for renewal over many
generations, most energy efficient, most walkable and most logical;
many trees are also mature, and the views are spectacular. And now
it has been rediscovered-- hence here also is a concentration of
private reinvestment in infill development, preservation, and
cultural revival. The Traditional Town core is where the action is.
The Master Plan is assembled from many design concepts and small
projects that are intended to reinforce the Traditional Town core.
These include: 1. Town Hall Square 2. Town Hall Tower 3. South Paris Avenue 4. Port Royal Elementary School 5. Roundabout 6. 16th Street 7. Corner Stores 8. Ribaut Road 9. New Public Buildings 10. Public Waterfront / Marshfront 11. Greenways For more information on these projects, please contact the Town Hall by phone or email. |
