This project is the final piece of a series of streetscape improvements along Broadway Avenue.

Several improvements along the corridor were identified through a planning process headed by the Department of City Planning. This project, the culmination of that effort, consists of design and construction of the following improvements:

  • Realignment of Beechview Avenue to meet Broadway Avenue at a single T-intersection
  • Expansion of the existing sidewalk space at the Broadway/Beechview/Hampshire intersection
  • Pedestrian and plaza amenities at the intersection
  • Pedestrian-scale lighting
  • Landscape improvements on both sides of the realigned Beechview Avenue
  • Revised signal poles at the intersection
  • Other improvements, to be identified through the design process

The area needs PARKING more then anything else. Where is the plan to provide more parking?

The area needs parking!!! How about parking for the senior center. How can anyone use what is proposed when there is no parking?

Very keen to see this area become more purposeful utilized and visually welcoming as it serves as an entrance into our community.

Would love to see a space that could host events like markets & the Halloween street festival, both of which sadly haven't happened this yr.

As Beechview has become a nexus of sorts for the Latin American community, I hope the plaza's design can incorporate those cultural elements

I envision a Broadway Ave Plaza that is truly a complete design that puts people first and not vehicles and parking. Let's welcome everyone!
