On the south side of Maryland Avenue, close the old alianment of ProsperiN Avenue and
extend Rose Avenue to meet Clarence Street on the west. An advantaae to this
approach is restoration of the original street arid to create blocks of rouahlv eaual size and
reaular shape.
The original shopping center site c-ea- should be redeveloped for housing units, taking
advantage of the amenity of the lake. This housing would also support existing retail uses and
potential new retail in this area.
2. Upgrading of the commercial area on the easf side of Clarence between Phalen Bovlevard
and Maryland with new retail or small office development will "fill in" the west side of the new
Welis Fargo bank block, with shared access points and internal circulation. A small outdoor
plaza or seating area, possibly adjacent to a restaurant, would be desirable on this block.
3. The commercial area on the west side of Clarence between Phalen and Maryland is
recommended for either office development and retail development targeting specialty
uses. Residential development would also be appropriate, including senior housing. Rose
Avenue should be extended to the west side of Clarence to serve this area, its exact
alignment to be determined after further study.
4. The auto-oriented strip mall at the northeast corner of Maryland and Clarence is
recommended for exterior improvements or redevelopment.
5. Redevelopment of the block bounded by Maryland, Rose, Barclay and Hazelwood to a
more intensive use; possibilities include office space and/or a child care facility. A creative
partnership with the National Guard Armory should consider adaptive reuse of the Armory
site if the opportunity arises. Community-oriented human services such as child care or family
OS-1136
supporf services should be considered at that time. Medium-density residences would also
be appropriate on this block, but it is recommended that residences be sited on secondary
streets with a more residential character.
