Prepared by a community-based task force convened by the Planning Commission, the plan includes recommendations designed to guide the redevelopment of major nodes along West Seventh Street, including those at Gateway (Shepard-Davern), Rankin, Albion, Otto, Randolph and St. Clair. In summary, the framework for the plan summary includes three principles that provide a foundation for the recommendations, inc(uding: Strategic locafion of development, found in the Land Use Plan of the Ciry's Comprehensive Plan and its small area plans. Excedlence in urban design, found in the Saint Paul on the Mississippi Develapment Framework. Traditional neighborhood development, found in the Zoning Code.

Relevant policies and principles include: • strategic location of redevelopment in the city (Land Use Element, smali area plans); • excellence in urban design (Saint Paul on the Mississippi Development Framework) ; and • traditional neighborhood development (Zoning Code) The Fort Road Development Plan used the corridor focus of the Land Use Element in combination with development concepts, some of which are contained in previously adopted smali area pians (Brewery/Ran-View Small Area Plan, 2000; Shepard Davern Small Area Plan and Saint Paul Gateway Project, 1999; and Seven Corners Gateway Plan, 2000), and others are new development concepts. The sfreetscape and pedestrian path principles come initially from the Saint Paul on the Mississippi Development Framework (adjusted for the particulars of West Seventh Street) and from planning work done for the individual traditional neighborhood nodes. Moreover, all of the policies have been developed through the Iens of the Principles of Traditional Neighborhood Develppment in the Zoning Code, lncluding: • com�act (within 1/4 to'/z mile of major intersections) • �edestrian-oriented (including safe and direct pedestrian access to the center of the node) • mix of commercial and residential uses (vertical andlor horizontal) • on maior transit streets and corridors (including West Seventh Street) • expanded housinq choices within the region Strategically, the approach to land use planning in this corridor is: • To continue working with communiry and business organizations • To work with each neighborhood to take best advantage of the views and amenities of the river valley • To pursue redevelopment of major opportunity sites inciuding: Shepard-Davern; Crosby Lake industrial site; Koch-Mobile site, ADM site; and the Citgo site. • To strengthen the urban village characteristics along West Seventh Street Fort Road Development Plan Summary • '� Recommendations The Fort Road Development Pian includes recommendations for six nodes aiong West Seventh Street between the City's southwestem boundary and the Smith Avenue intersection. The nodes are: Gateway (Shepard/Davern), Rankin, Albion, Otto, Randolph and St. Clair. "City Actions" (below) describes the strategies and approaches the City of Saint Paul will use to impiement the recommendations. The recommendations are proposed for areas depicted on the attached Concept Plans. "Concept Plans" show broad classes of recommended land uses and connections among them. The concept plans use ihe fWlaJeing vocabulary to d"� improvemenls or d�anges: • Exisfing Land Uses (solid line) include major projects recently completed or under construction. • Planned Land Uses (long dashed line) indicate projects already proposed in prior Small Area Plans or studies. • Proposed Land Uses (short dashed line) indicates changes proposed as paR of this Corridor Plan. Since neighborhood planning often involves successive iterations of an idea, there is sometimes an overlap between "Planned" and "Proposed" categories. Some projects or concepts first suggested in previous plans are refined or slightly aitered in the current plan. More dehailed sugges6ons for specific sut}areas wiihin each naJe area are presented in ihe atiached illustrative plans. The i�ushative p�r�.s are intended m depict ten' "redevefopment scenarios" — ihat is, tt�ey ir�'� one manner in which a given site coukl be devebped in accord wnh ihe broad prinaples in the concept plan. � does deveboment occur in e�caci ihe manner ested in an llustrative � These plans are intended to provide examples to help guide devebpment, but are rwt mearit to foreclose oiher poss�ble scenarios involving similar land tues and development ir�tensfies. Additionai recommendations include design guidelines for buildings and sites, guidelines for building typologies at various densities and the prototypical plan for a path system connecting the node with the surrounding neighborhood. Design Guidelines Building and site design is a key factor in creating compatible infill development, especially at h�gher levels of density. The design guidelines, attached, address some of the key elements of infill design: sensitivity to context and the relationship of building facades, windows and entrances to street and sidewalk. These guidelines should be considered as part of the site plan review process for proposed nonresidential or multifamily developments in all nodes. The new Traditional Neighborhood zoning districts, proposed as rezonings in specific nodes in the corridor, include additional design guidelines that address the placement of parking and screening of service areas. The following guidelines are recommended for consideration as part of the site plan review process for new nonresidential or multifamily buildings in station areas. They address the relationship of new buildings to tfie street and to neighboring traditional buildings. Additional guidelines may be applied in connection with existing zoning districts (i.e., the Shepard-Davern Overlay Districts) or proposed zoning changes to the TN Traditional Neighborhood Districts. Fort Road Development Plan Summary 05 -9 d • New development should reiate to the design of adjacent traditional buiidings, where these are present, in scaie and character. This can be achieved by maintaining similar setbacks, fa�ade divisions, roof lines, rhythm and proportions of openings, building materials and colors. Historic architectural details and styles are encouraged, as are designs that complements those styles. • Primary building entrances on all buildings should face the primary abutting public street or walkway, or linked to that street by a ciearly defined and visibie walkway or courryard. Additional secondary entrances may be oriented to a secondary street or parking area. Entries should be clearly visible and identifiable from the street. • In pedestrian-oriented commercial districts (generally characterized by storefront commercial buildings built up to the sidewalk) the foliowing guideiines should be foilowed: 1. Buildings should be as close to the sidewalk as practical. Where practical, green space and/or landscaping should be installed between the building front and the public sidewalk. 2. At intersections, buildings should "hold the corner;' that is, have street facades at or near the sidewalks of both streets. 3. Buildings should have direct pedestrian connections to the street. 4. No blank walis should be permitted to face the public street, sidewalks, or other public spaces such as plazas. 5. Signage should be appropriate for pedestrians. 6. The width of sidewalks should be maintained. 7. Parking shall be located at the rear or side of all buildings, if practical. • Buildings should have window and door openings facing the street; windows facing parking lots are also encouraged. • All rooftop equipment shall be screened from view from adjacent streets, public rights-of-way and adjacent properties. Preferably, rooftop equipment should be screened by the building parapet, or should be located out of view from the ground. If this is infeasible, the equipment should be grouped within a single enclosure. Exterior mechanical equipment such as ductwork shall not be located on primary building facades. • The number of curb cuts should be minimized where possible, and shared curb cuts for adjacent parking areas are encouraged. Building Typologies This section and the accompanying graphic indicate the variety of building types and mixtures of uses that are possible in a node. Categories are as follows: Fort Road Development Plan Summary 05 - �i0 • Residerr�l: In alrrast all cases, nEw �eside�al deteY�pment is at medium io hgh densities, and qn encompass twmtbuse orother atlad�ed dwelfmgs, c�rriage house secondary uniLs, and b�v-rise or mid-rise mulbPam� buld�mgs— bit type a}x�trnents, aflaLs, both condaniniums or r�tal uniLs.

Thus, sane r�,w urtan v�ll�ge sRes sudi � the Upper Landing are characier¢ed as primanly residenlral, alihagh tt�ey indude smail comrnerz�l componenLs. • Mixed Use: indicates both vertically-integrated mixed use, such as housing above ground-floor commerciai or office use, as well as a range of uses along a bfock frontage • Commercial: Includes retail and service uses, sometimes in combination with offices. • O�ce: Includes buildings used solely or primarily for o�ce purposes, including medical offices and government offices such as state agencies. • Industrial: Inciudes manufacturing, wholesaling and warehousing/shipping activities, as well as other large-scale o�ce tenants of business parks. • Institutional: Includes private institutions such as places of worship, semi-public institutions (i.e. a hospital or YMCA) and public institutions such as schools and police bus stops. Within the node, there are a number of ways to achieve residential densities of approximately 20 units per acre and a floor-to area ratio of 1.0 without detracting from neighborhood character. Building design is the key factor in creating compatible infill development. The graphic, Building Typology, is provided as a broad overview of the general building types that are proposed in the nodes of the Fort Road Corridor. These types have been identified as appropriate for various redevelopment sites, with consideration of neighborhood scale, market conditions, circulation patterns, the "background density" of the surrounding neighborhood and the density level needed to create a vibrant node. Fort Road Development Plan Summary 05 -90 ,�f rn-e;�.�� ���3/vS � � The Development Nodes of Fort Road Gateway and itankin Nodes The Gateway and Rankin nodes, both covered by fhe Shepard Davem Smal/ Area P/an (1999), share many common features. The small area plan describes the area's character as "infiluenced more by transportation routes through it than by settfement within it." 8oth West Seventh Street/Nighway 5 and Shepard Road are high-traffic corridors, influenced by their proximity to the freeway system and the Minneapolis-St. Pauf Airport; they are characterized by generally auto-oriented development Fetterns. Housing densities vary greatly, from large lots above the high bluff (2.4 units per acre} to mid-rise apartment complexes along Shepard (as high as 59 units per acre). Within a quarter-mile radius of the Gateway node are 854 units; another 1,o12 are located between a quarter-mile and a half-mile. The Rankin node has 727 units within a quarter-mile and 1,330 between a quarter-mile and a half-mile (some of these are within the Gateway node radius as well). This summary reiterates elements of the Shepard Davern Small Area Plan that are particularly pertinent to the concepts of compact, walkable communities built at a human scale: The Shepard Davern Overlay District covers most land between the Highway 5/She�rd Road interchange and Rankin Street. The commercial overlay permits e aci i ie � multifamily housing in addition to the base (B-2) uses. It prohibits auto-related uses, fireestanding restaurants, pawnshops, currency exchanges and similar uses. Off-premises signs (bifiboards) are prohibited. Building height is limited to 6 stories/65 feet. Design standards, provided for both pubfic and private development, cover the following: building setbacks (maximum and minimum); building design and materials; signage; improvement s to public s(dewalks; and, landscaping and design of parking areas. The residential overiay has the same height limits and simifar design standards; uses are primarily those of the base (multifamify) districts, with some 19mits on density and minimum site area. Edgcumbe Parkway District (both sides of Davern Street west of Sibley Manor) and north of Norfolk is being developed as housing. Some community commercial may also be included in the future. , �Reeiel The Gateway Vllage proposal encompasses a portion of the Edgecumbe Parkway area (north of Norfolk Avenue and west of Davern), with a horizontally-integrated mix of housing, including senior housing, I �� Fort Road Development Plan Summary New muitifamily housing is proposed both east and west of Sibley Manor, including: West Sibley Crescent — 24 two-story duplex or rowhouse units with tuck-under parking, overiooking open space; Snelling Place — 50-70 new multifamily units with ground level parking, oriented around a circuiar plaza; Stewart Crescent— 150-250 townhouse and rowhouse units oriented around an oval "village green;" and Shepard Road River Bluff Apartments — additional development sites for market-rate mid-rise condominium or apartment buildings when the future redesign of Shepard Road as a parkway eliminates Youngman Avenue as a frontage road. Springfield Terrace —120 — 200 multifamily units combined with ground floor retail or offce uses (mainly at corner locations) on the residentiai biocks east and west of Springfield Street; buifdings would step dawn the slope from West Seventh to Benson Avenue. Commercial and mixed use infiii development is proposed along the frontage of Sibley Manor; on the Wordsworth Avenue block, in combinatian with rowhouses fronting Wordsworth; and, at the intersection of West Seventh and St. Paut Avenue. The Sibley Plaza shopping center is proposed to be expanded and reoriented to the street. Streetscape lmprovements are proposed. The small area plan and the overlay district include fairiy detailed standards for streetscape improvements on West Seventh Street. Davern should have a sidewalk on at least one side of the street. In addition, Rankin Street should be improved with a continuous sidewaik, street trees and lantern streetlights. Madison and Alton streets should be improved with a continuous sidewalk. Springfield Street should be improved with a pedestrian crossing of the rail line and with continuous sidewalks on the discontinuous street segments. If and when the bridge over West 7`" at Gannon is rebuiit, ensure that there is adequate pedestrian accommodations on the east side of the bridge. Albion Node The Albion, as well as the Otto, nodes are located about one-half mile apart on opposite sides of the I-35E interchange. The Otto node is characterized by large developable or recently developed sites (River Bluff and the Crosby Lake Business Park), while the Albion node is iargely developed or protected as open space. The size of the Albion node is timited by the I-35E freeway corridor and the steep blufr west of Lexington Parkway. Other physical barriers inciude Shepard Road and West Seventh Street itself, which is characterized by high speeds and high traffic volumes approaching the (-35E interchange. Recommendations include the following: Extension of the existing bike path to Shepard Road. The preferred route follows Albion across West Seventh to the right-of-way of Adrian Street (currently a storage area, for Highland Nursery) and follows that as far as the Elway Street right-of-way; the route would continue south on Elway . � � Fort Road Development Pfan Summary 05-9D The Development Nodes of Fort Road Gateway and Rankin Nodes The Gateway and Rankin nodes, both covered by the Shepard Davem Small Area Plan (1999), share many common features. The small area plan describes the area's character as "influenced more by transportation routes through it than by settlement within it." Both West Seventh Street/Highway 5 and Shepard Road are high-traffic corridors, influenced by their proximiiy to the freeway system and the Minneapolis-St. Paui Airport; they are characterized by generalfy auto-oriented development Fstterns. Housing densities vary greatly, from large lots above the high bluff (2.4 units per acre) to mid-rise apartment complexes along Shepard (as high as 59 units per acre). Within a quarter-mile radius of the Gateway node are 854 units; another 1,012 are located behveen a quarter-mile and a half-mile. The Rankin node has 727 units within a quarter-mile and 1,330 between a quarter-mile and a half-mile (some of these are within the Gateway node radius as well). This summary reiterates elements of the Shepard Davern Sma11 Area Plan that are particularly pertinent to the concepts of compact, walkable communities built at a human scale: The Shepard Davern Overlay District covers most land between the Highway 5/She�rd Road interchange and Rankin Street. The commercial overlay permits hotel and conference facilities and multifamily housing in addition to the base (B-2) uses. It prohibits auto-related uses, freestanding restaurants, pawnshops, currency exchanges and similar uses. Off-premises signs (billboards) are prohibited. Building height is limited to 6 stories/65 feet. Design standards, provided for both public and private development, cover the following: building setbacks (maximum and minimum); building design and materiafs; signage; improvement s to public sidewalks; and, landscaping and design of parking areas. The residentia! overlay has the same height limits and similar design standards; uses are primarily those of the base (multifamily) districts, with some limits on density and minimum site area. Edgcumbe Parkway District (both sides of Davern Street west of Sibley Manor) and north of Nortolk is being developed as housing. Some community commercial may also be included in the future. Hospitality uses may still be appropriate for the sites south of Norfolk, fronting on Shepard Road. The Gateway Vllage proposal encompasses a portion of the Edgecumbe Parkway area (north of Norfolk Avenue and west of Davern), with a horizonhally-i�tegrated mix of housing, including senior housing, lodging, o�ce and retail uses. Fort Road Deve%pment Plan Summary 05-90 New multifamily housing is proposed both east and west of Sibley Manor, including: West Sibley Crescent — 24 iwo-story dupiex or rowhouse unils with tuck-under parking, overlooking open space; Snelling Place — 50-70 new muitifamily units with ground level parking, oriented around a circular piaza; Stewart Crescent-150-250 townhouse and rowhouse units oriented around an oval "village green;° and Shepard Road River Bluff Apartments — additional development sites for market-rate mid-rise condominium or apartmeni buildings when the fiuture redesign of Shepard Road as a parkway efiminates Youngman Avenue as a frontage road. Springfield Terrace —120 — 200 muftifamify units combined with ground floor retail or office uses (mainly at corner focations) on the residential blocks east and west of Springfield Street; buifdings would step down the slope from West Seventh to Benson Avenue. Commercial and mixed use infill development is proposed along the frontage of Sibley Manor; o� the Wordsworth Avenue block, in combination with rowhouses fronting Wordsworth; and, at the intersection of West Seventh and St. Paul Avenue. The Sibley Plaza shopping center is proposed to be expanded and reoriented to the street. Streetscape Improvements are proposed. The small area plan and the overlay district include fairly detailed standards for streetscape improvements on West Seventh Street. Davern shouid have a sidewalk on at least one side of the street. In addition, Rankin Street should be improved with a continuous sidewalk, street trees and lantern streetlights. Madison and Alton streets should be improved with a continuous sidewalk. Springfield Street should be improved with a pedestrian crossing of the rail line and with continuous sidewalks on the discontinuous street segments. If and when the bridge over West 7'" at Gannon is rebuilt, ensure that there is adequate pedestrian accommodations on the east side of the bridge. Albion Node The Aibion, as well as the Otto, nodes are located about one-half mile apart on opposite sides of the I-35E interchange. The Otto node is characterized by iarge developabie or recently developed sites (River Bluff and the Crosby Lake Business Park), whife the Albion node is IargeYy developed or protected as open space. The size of the Albion node is limited by the I-35E freeway corridor and the steep bfuff west of Lexington Parkway. Other physical barriers include Shepard Road and West Seventh Street itseif, which is characterized by high speeds and high traffic volumes approaching the I-35E interchange. Recommendations inciude the following: Extension of the existing bike path to Shepard Road. The preferred route follows Albion across West Seventh to the right-of-way of Adrian Street (currently a storage area for Highland Nursery) and fiollows that as far as the Elway Street right-of-way; the route would continue south on Elway Fort Road Development P/an Summary os-�o Street to Shepard Road, where it would connect with the existing bike path. This alternative is tied to the creation of a new storage and parking area for Highiand Nursery on the block between Albio� Street and I-35E (see below); and altemative route could follow the sidewalk on the south side of West Seventh from Albion one biock west to the Elway Street right-of-way. The City will work with the nursery to define options in relocating parking and storage off of the Elway Street right-of-way. Development accessing Albion Avenue southeast of West Seventh Street should establish curb cuts as far southeast as is practicai so as to accommodate queues for the signal at West Seventh Street. Redevelopment of the block between Albion Street and I-35E on the south side of West Seventh Street, currently occupied by a gas station/convenience store, abandoned gs station/auto repair, and several single-family houses. Proposed uses include a new storage and parking area for Highland Nursery (a business with expansion needs that cannot be met at its current site). The convenience store would remain. With 27 spaces, this site could also accommodate some customer parking for the U.S. Post O�ce directly across West Seventh. Streetscape improvements on Montreal that match those in the Crosby Lake Business Park. These would include continuous sidewalks, street trees and lighting, thus enhancing this street as a bike/pedestrian connection across 35E to the business park. Redevelopment of selected sites, including; medium density townhouses and multifamify housing at the intersection of Montreal Avenue, Lexington Parkway and West Seventh Street that are oriented away from the road; the current post office site (a leased facility) for neighborhood- serving retail or mixed use; and, the Crosby-Lake Inn, a motel and small restaurant, with multifamily residential or o�ce use, possibly with some limited retail. Pedestrian and tra�c safety improvements at the Montreal Avenue, Lexington Parkway and West Seventh Street intersection that include crosswalks, curb bump-outs or other physical methods of slowing traffic. Otto Node The Otto node includes the new Crosby-Lake Business Park and the large cleared River Bluff (Koch-Mobil) development site, both of them on the south side of West Seventh. Much of the West Seventh Street frontage is occupied by small apartment buildings or single-family houses, as well as smal! free-standing one-story commercial puildings. It is shaped liked an elongated triangfe. Because of its Fort Road Development Plan Summary o5-9v direct connection to Shepard Road, Otto is one of the major entry points into the neighborhood from the south. Recommendations include the following: • New commercial and office development concentrated on the river side of West 7th Street. Pockets of isolated single family homes and small, singie story buildings with large surface parking lots are the greatest potential for redevelopment. New development should not result in a net loss of off-street parking. • On the triangular block bounded by Otto, Mercer and West Seventh Street, new retail and o�ce may be appropriate along the West Seventh Street frontage, with residential above and behind. • Selective infili housing development on residential blocks on the river side of West Seventh Street on properties that are currently vacant or deemed too dilapidated for renovation. Examples of properties include those on the blocks east of Otto between Stewart Avenue and Shepard Road, which were downzoned from RM-1 (multifamily residential) to RT-1 (one- and two-family residential) to implement the Brewery-Ran-Vew Small Area Plan. • Improved pedestrian connection and streetscape improvements on Otto Avenue, including a continuous sidewalk, street trees and pedestrian-scale Iighting. As part of the River Bluff development, there should be enhanced pedestrian connections to West Seventh Street, Shepard Road and the river valley. Randolph Node The Randolph node has the character of a traditional commercial district, dominated by clusters of brick and stone storefronts and the visually prominent towers of the Landmark/Schmidt Brewery. The diagonal intersections created by two somewhat divergent street grids on the bluff and river sides of West Seventh have created many small triangular blocks giving the commercial district a somewhat discontinuous appearance, but providing good visibility to those businesses. The diagonal intersections have created wide pedestrian crossings which in some cases are confusing and challenging for pedestrians. The node is bounded on the bluff side by I-35E, and eMends southwest to the Mississippi River; on the east by the at-grade Canadian Pacific rail line that parallels Grace Street; and on the west by a gradual transition to the Otto node. There are no major physical barriers or breaks between the two nodes. The commercial district extends roughly to Tuscarora Avenue. Recommendations for the three sub-areas on the riverside of W est Seventh in the Randolph node include the following: • Fountain Cave (Randolph tndustrial) Site. Consistent with the Brewery Ran-View Small Area P/an, housing with significant open space and related uses is the most desirable use of the site. The Fountain Cave site also includes a number of Fo�t Road Development Plan Summary OS-90 adjacent blocks west of Drake Street. The foliowing principles, consistent with the Rive� Corridor Ptan, should guide any master plan fior the site: 1. Restore the street grid, e�ending existing streets into and through the site; 2. Organize street and biock development around a centrai green "spine" — a major street designed as a linear park — connecting West Seventh Street to the river valley; 3. Cluster the tallest buildings at the foot of the slope, toward the river valley, continuing the existing massing of the grain elevators and using the slope to minimize visuai intrusion into surrounding neighborhoods; 4. Provide multiple views of both the river valley and the city skyline from streels and buildings; 5. Include a fuli range of moderate- to high-density housing types, including townhouses, multifamily apartments, senior apartments and live-work units; 6. Provide usable open space and connections to regional trail corridors and open space amenities. One potential development scenario for the site includes approximately 1,500 housing units with ali housing types listed above. This development scenario reflects current anticipated land assembly costs; the community would support a lower density if land assembly cosis were lowec The tallest buildings and highest densities are clustered toward Shepard Road and the river; senior housing is clustered at the "apex" of the site. The grain elevators could be reused as the support and foundation for 8, 12, or 16-story apartment buildings, thereby avoiding costs of demolition while retaining these historic structures. Live-work units border Randolph Avenue, providing a transition between the industrial uses around the Landmark Brewery and the purely residential interior blocks. West of Drake Street, small-lot single-family dwellings and townhouses would be developed on several biocks with vacant or underutilized properties. adaptive reuse of the historic warehouseiindustrial buildings in this area should be pursued. • Randolph Avenue Corridor Randolph Avenue is the only major arterial connection beiween the Randolph node and the Mississippi Rivec The avenue provides a major opportunity for enhancing pedestrian connections to the river, not only for the Fountain Cave area but also for the residential neighborhoods on the bluff side of West Seventh Street. Recommended actions to enhance this connection include: 1. Make Randolph a major view corridor between West Seventh and the River. Restore the sight line of Randolph from West Seventh to the river to allow an unimpeded view. Future development along this stretch of Randolph must be set back to achieve the sight line. 2. Add sidewalks and bike lanes. 3. Add signage directing people to the regional bike trail along Shepard Road. 4. Make Randolph a"greenway" through tree plantings and boulevard improvements. 5. Preserve the residentiai character ofi Randolph on the bluff side of West Seventh Street. Fort Road Development P/an Summary 10 as 90 • West Seventh Street Corridor Consistent with the Brewery/Ran-View Small Area Plan, it is proposed to fiIl the breaks i� the existing retail nodes and continue to improve the aesthetic character of the streetscape and strengthen the market for existing businesses. ln addition, the West SeventhlRandolph commercial node is a major neighborhood center and future development should respo�d to neighborhood needs. Development principles for this corridor include: 1. Focus redevelopment around the key intersection of the node, West Seventh and Randolph. 2. Maximize connections to the river and the Fountain Cave site. 3. Create new off-street parking for existing businesses, where feasible. 4. Work with business owners as potential devefopers and retain established businesses that strengthen the neighborhood; 5. Develop or refine design guidelines for the corridor; 6. Look for infill opportunities on other "targeY' blocks. 7. New development shall result in no net loss of off-street parking. The primary focus for redevelopment is between Toronto Street and Osceola Avenue, Randolph and West Seventh; specifica{ly, the proposals are: 1. Complementary uses. A number of traditional storefront buildings on the block would remain. Other complementary uses might include a community centedmeeting room, a daycare, and convenience retail uses such as a dry cleaner, coffee shop or small gift store. 2. Mixed use. The adjacent block to the west, currently occupied by a bingo halllrestaurant and severa{ residences, has good potential for a mixed-use building of 60 to 70 multifamily housing units, most like{y rental apartments, with ground floor retail space of approximately 10,000 square feet. This block is also being considered as a potential site for the new fire station and additional City offices. The site currently has a viable operating business with expansion plans, and ihe owner plans to continue operating. 3. Shared parking. The northern corner of the block between James and Osceola, opposite the bingo site, is identified for a potential shared parking lot that could serve existing West Seventh Street businesses. Currently occupied by a single-family house (the only residence on an otherwise commercial block), the site could yield about 25 spaces, with two access points, from West Seventh and Osceola Streets. 4. Target areas. Either upgrading or partial redevelopment is proposed for the blocks between .luno and Armstrong Avenues and between Watson and Tuscarora Avenues, troth on the river side. Fort Road Development Plan Summary 11 05 -�a Some existing buildings on these biocks should be retained and upgraded where possible; others could be replaced by sma11-scale infiil development. 5. Housing should be a constant presence in this node, including residential units above ali commercial space in both existing a�d future buildings. 6. Design guidelines wou{d guide future building rehabilitation, additions and new construction within the commercial corridor. The guideiines in Appendix 1 should be used in site plan review of aif nonresidentiai and multi-family buildings within the nodes of the Fort Road corridor. The foilowing additional guidelines should be considered for the West Seventh Street corridor: (a) New construction fronting West Seventh Street should be a minimum of two and a maximum of four stories, where permitted by zoning; and (b) Biliboards, where present, shouid be removed. Removal is most feasible when billboards are deteriorating or damaged. • Island Station Site Proximity to the river and the old power plant building have made potential housing on the site a long-term desire. The Island Station site is to be redeveloped as housing. The following amenities and elements should be considered for such development: 1. Preserve the existing Island Station power plant structure. 2. Develop walking paths through the site a�d connecting to ad}'acent sites and the river. 3. Develop a marina with permanent slips extending into the river. • Brewery Site The former Schmidt Brewery has long been a major neighborhood landmark and is now a site in transition. Once a regional brewery and employment center for the neighborhood, the brewery complex was transformed into an ethanol operation that is a generator of noise and odor problems for the surrounding neighborhood. The future of the ethanol operation is in question. In light of these issues, the community recommends that further planning be initiated on the Brewery site. This should consist of a reuse study to determine its land use and development potential. Key issues in the reuse study should include the following: pedestrian and neighborhood oriented uses should be a priority; activities to achieve historic designation should be initiated and any historic buildings should be preserved for adaptive reuse; and the community should co�tinue to be involved in advising the City and the Housing and Redevelopment Authority in the reuse study FoK Road Developmenf Plan Summary 12 05 -�`o St. Ciair Node The St. Glair node is fairly densefy developed, with ma�y historic or potentially historic buildings on V�,�st Seventh Street and the adjacent b(ocks. The typical West Seventh block pattem, with its frequent intersections, small triangular blocks and wide pedestrian crossings, continues through the area. There is littfe, if any, vacant land in tfiis area. The influence of downtown land uses and the hospital district, incfuding the related traffic, are feit throughout this area. A number of historic buildings, including the National Register-listed CSPS Haii and the Kessier & Maguire Funerai Home, are located ciose to the node. The "Uppertown" residential district, potentiaily eligible for National Register designation, is located west of Smith Avenue. Recommendations include the following: • Streetscape improvements on Grace StreetlWestern Avenue to connect the School District Administration offices with the node. These improvements should complement ongoing streetscape improvements on Ciiff Street. Improvements should include a continuous sidewalk, street trees and pedestrian-scale lighting. • Potential infill redevelopment sites on selective infill development sites fronting on West Seventh Street. The larger sites identified for potential redevelopment inciude: 1. The triangular block bounded by Western Avenue, Superior Street and Goodhue Street with a 2 or 3 story mixed use building; the building could accommodate approximately eight residential units and 6,800 square feet of ground-floor retail. The site would provide shared parking for the church, the proposed building, and the existing o�ce buildings on the adjacent parcel. 2. The eastern corner of the block between Banfil Street and Goodrich Avenue with a two-story mixed retail/o�ce building; the West Seventh Street frontage west of the St. Clair intersection could be redeveloped on the river side with a two-story retail-o�ce building close to the corner, and with a multifamily building (maximum of 18 units) closer to the West Seventh railroad bridge. Parking would be shared between the two buildings; and the bluff side of the intersection with a small (5,800 square foot) two-story o�ce building and adjacent parking. • Creation of a small open space on the liquor store property at the northeast corner of St. Clair and West Seventh. This area could also be used for grocery store expansion. One possibility is consolidating the parking lots of the liquor store and grocery store, sharing parking, to allow for the elimination of the problematic driveway access into the parking lot on the south side of the liquor store. It would also provide an opportunity to convert the paved driveway area in front of the liquor store into a landscaped area, which would improve the aesthetics of the St. Clair intersection. • New development shall result in no net foss of off-street parking. Fort Road Development Plan Summary 13 D5-90 Action To encourage deveiopment according to the concepts and recommendations, the priori6es of the City should be: • Adopt this summary as an amendment to the Saint Paul Comprehensive Plan. • Adopt zone changes that will encourage deveiopment reflecting the concepts in the plan summary. • Collaborate with other agencies and community organizations to implement the recommendations in this summary. • Encourage redevelopment of land in the nodes. • Provide for the development of streetscape amenities along West Seventh Street and within the nodes. • Implement design recommendations as redevelopment occurs. Planning Commission Findings The Planning Commission finds that the Fort Road Development Plan summary is consistent with the Saint Paul Comprehensive Plan and other adopted City policies. Planninq Process The Fort Road Development Plan was prepared by a task force and a Randolph Work Group estaGlished by the Planning Commission. Membership included representatives of the community planning counciis for Districts 9 and 15, as well as representatives of businesses and community organizations, the Planning Commission and residents. The task force was assisted throughout the planning process by staff from the City of Saint Paul and a consultant team from URS inc., which was retained by the Metropolitan Council.

Fort Road Development P(an Summary 1 05 -�10 Framework The foundation of the Fort Road Development Plan is contained in the Saint Paui Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code. Relevant policies and principles include: • strategic location of redevelopment in the cdy (Land Use Element, smail area plans); • excellence in urban design (Saint Paui on the Mississippi Development Framework) ; and • traditional neighborhood development (Zoning Code) The Fort Road Development Plan used the corridor focus of the Land Use Element in combination with development concepts, some of which are contained in previously adopted small area plans (Brewery/Ran-View Small Area Pfan, 2000; Shepard Davern Small Area Plan and Saint Paut Gateway Project, 1999; and Seven Corners Gateway Pian, 200D), and others are new development concepts. The streetscape and pedestrian path principles come initially from the Saint Paul on the Mississippi Development F�amework (adjusted for the particulars of West Seventh Street) and from planning work done for the individual traditional neighborhood nodes. Moreover, all of the policies have been developed through the lens of the Principles of Traditional Neighborhood Development in the Zoning Code, including: • compaet (within 174 to'/: mile of major interseetions) � pedestrian-oriented (including safe and direct pedestrian access to the center of the node) • mix of commercial and residential uses (vertical and/or horizontal) • on maior transit streets and corridors (including West Seventh Street) � exoanded housinq choices within the region Strategically, the approach to land use planning in this corridor is: • To continue working with community and business organizations • To work with each neighborhood to take best advantage of the views and amenities of the river valley • To pursue redevelopment of major opportunity sites including: Shepard-Davern; Crosby Lake industrial site; Koch-Mobile site, ADM site; and the Citgo site. • To strengthen the urban village characteristics along West Seventh Street Fort Road Development Plan Summary d5 �]o Recommendations The Fort Road Deve%pment Plan includes recommendations for six nodes along West Seventh Street between the City's southwestern boundary and the Smith Avenue intersection. The nodes are: Gateway (Shepard/Davem), Rankin, Aibion, Otto, Randolph and St. Clair. "City Actions° (below) describes the strategies and approaches the City of Saint Paul will use to impiement the recommendations. The recommenda6ons are proposed for areas depicted on the attached Concept Plans. "Concept Pians" show broad classes of recommended land uses and connections among them.

Additional recommendations include design guidelines for buiidings and sites, guidelines for building typologies at various densities and the prototypicai plan for a path system connecting the node with the surrounding neighborhood. Design Guidelines Building and site design is a key factor in creating compatible infill deveiopment, especialiy at higher levels of density. The design guidelines, attached, address some of the key elements of infill design: sensitivity to context and the relationship of building facades, windows and entrances to street and sidewalk. These guidelines should be considered as part of the site plan review process for proposed nonresidential or multifamily developments in all nodes. The new Traditional Neighborhood zoning districts, proposed as rezonings in specific nodes in the corridor, include additional design guidelines that address the placement of parking and screening of service areas. The following guidelines are recommended for consideration as part of the site plan review process for new nonresidential or multifamily buildings in station areas. They address the relationship of new buildings to the street and to neighboring traditional buildings. Additional guidelines may be applied in connection with existing zoning districts (i.e., the Shepard-Davern Overlay Districts) or proposed zoning changes to the TN Traditional Neighborhood Districts. Fort Road Deve%pmenf Pla� Summary 05 -9 Z� New development should relate to the design of adjacent traditional buildings, where these are present, in scale and character. This can be achieved by maintaining simiiar setbacks, fa�ade divisions, roof iines, rhythm and proportions of openings, buildi�g materials and coiors. Historic architectural details and styles are encouraged, as are designs that complements those styles. • Primary building entrances on all buildings should face the primary abutting public street or walkway, or iinked to that street by a ciearly defined and visible walkway or courtyard. Additional secondary entrances may be oriented to a secondary street or parking area. Entries should be clearly visible and identifiable from the street. • In pedestrian-oriented commercial districts (generally characteri2ed by storefront commercial buildings built up to the sidewalk) the following guidefines shouid be followed: 1. Buildings should be as close to the sidewalk as practical. Where practical, green space and/or landscaping should be installed between the building front and the public sidewalk. 2. At intersections, Duildings should "hold the corner;' that is, have street facades at or near the sidewalks of both streets. 3. Buildings should have direct pedestrian connections to the street. 4. No blank walls should be permitted to face the public street, sidewalks, or other public spaces such as piazas. 5. Signage should be appropriate for pedestrians. 6. The width of sidewa{ks shoufd be maintained. 7. Parking shaii be located at the rear or side of all buildings, if practicai. • Buildings should have window and door openings facing the street; windows facing parking lots are also encouraged. • Ali rooftop equipment shall be screened from view from adjacent streets, public rights-of-way and adjacent properties. Preferably, rooftop equipment should be screened by the building parapet, or should be located out of view from the ground. If this is infeasibie, the equipment should be grouped within a single enclosure. Exterior mechanicai equipment such as duciwork shall not be located on primary building facades. • The number of curb cuts should be minimized where possible, and shared curb cuts 4or adjacent parking areas are encouraged.

Within the node, there are a number of ways to achieve residential densities of approximately 20 units per acre and a floor-to area ratio of 1.0 without detracUng from neighborhood character. 6uilding design is the key factor in creating compatible infill development. The graphic, Building Typology, is provided as a broad overview of the general building types that are proposed in the nodes of the Fort Road Corridor. These types have been identified as appropriate for various redevelopment sites, with consideration of neighborhood scale, market conditions, circulation patterns, the "background density" of the surrounding neighborhood and the density level needed to create a vibrant node.

The small area pian describes the area's character as "influenced more by transportation routes through it than by settlement within it." Both West Seventh StreeUHighway 5 and Shepard Road are high-traffic corridors, influenced by their proxlmity to the freeway system and the Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport; they are characterized by generally auto-oriented deveiopment �tterns. Housing densities vary greatly, ftom large lots above the high bluff (2.4 units per acre) to mid-rise apartment complexes along Shepard (as high as 59 units per acre). Within a quarter-mile radius of the Gateway node are 854 units; another 1,012 are located between a quarter-mife and a half-mile. The Rankin node has 727 units within a quarter-mile and 1,330 between a quarter-mile and a half-mile (some of these are within the Gateway node radius as well). This summary reiterates elements of the Shepard Davern Smal/ Area P/an that are particularly pertinent to the concepts of compact, walkable communities built at a human scale: The Shepard Davern Overlay District covers most Iand beiween the Highway 5/She�rd Road interchange and Rankin Street. The commercial overlay permits e ci i ie �end multifamily housing in addition to the base (B-2) uses. It prohibits auto-reiated uses, freestanding restaurants, pawnshops, currency exchanges and similar uses. Off-premises signs (billboards) are prohibited. Building height is limited to 6 stories/65 feet. Design standards, provided for both pubiic and private development, cover the foilowing: building setbacks (maximum and minimum); building design and materials; signage; improvement s to public sidewalks; and, landscaping and design of parking areas. The residential overlay has the same height Iimits and similar design standards; uses are primarily those of the base (multifamily) districts, with some limits on density and minimum site area.

Springfield Terrace — 120 —200 multifamily units combined with ground floor reYail or office uses (mainly at corner locations) on the residential blocks east and west of Springfieid Street; buildings would step down the slope from West Seventh to Benson Avenue. Commercia! and mixed use infill development is proposed along the frontage of Sibley Manor; on the Wordsworth Avenue block, in combination with rowhouses fronting Wordsworth; and, at the intersection of West Seventh and St. Paul Avenue. The Sibley Plaza shopping center is proposed to be expanded and reorienYed Yo the street. Streetscape Improvements are proposed. The small area plan and the overlay district inciude fairly detailed standards for streetscape improvements on West Seventh Street. Davern should have a sidewalk on at least one side of the street. In addition, Rankin Street should be improved � with a continuous sidewalk, slreet trees and lantern streetlighYs. Madison and Alton streets should be improved with a continuous sidewalk. Springfield Street shoald be improved with a pedestrian crossing of the rail line and with continuous sidewalks on the disconYinuous street segments. If and when the bridge over West 7`" at Gannon is rebuilt, ensure that there is adequate pedestrian accommodations on the east side ot the bridge. Albion Naie The Albion, as well as the Otto, nodes are located about one-half mile apart on opposite sides of the I-35E interchange. The Otto node is characterized by large developable or recently developed sites (River Bluff and the Crosby Lake Business Park), while the Atbion node is largely developed or protected as open space. The size of the Albion node is Iimited by the I-35E freeway corridor and the steep bluff wesi of Lexington Parkway. Other physical barr+ers include Shepard Road a�d West Seventh Street itself, which is characterized by high speeds and high iraffic volumes approaching the I-35E interchange. Recommendations include the following: 6ctension of the existing bike path to Shepard Road. The preferred route follows Aibion across West Seventh to the right-of-way of Adrian Street (currently a storage area for Highland Nursery) and follows that as far as the Elway Street right-of-way; the route would continue south on Elway � FoR Road Development Plan Summary 05-90 The Development Nodes of Fort Road Gateway and Rankin Nodes The Gateway and Rankin nodes, both covered by the Shepard Davern Small Area Plan (1999), share many common features.

This summary reiterates elements of the Shepard Davern Small Area P/an that are particularly pertinent to the concepts of compact, walkable communities built at a human scale: The Shepard Davern Overlay District covers most land between the Highway 5/She�rd Road interchange and Rankin Street. The commercial overlay permits hotel and conference facilities and multifamily housing in addition to the base (B-2) uses. It prohibits auto-related uses, freestanding restaurants, pawnshops, currency exchanges and similar uses. Off-premises signs (billboards) are prohibited. Suiiding height is limited to 6 stories/65 feet.

The residential overlay has the same height Iimits and simifar design standards; uses are primarily those of the base (muitifamily) districts, with some limits on density and minimum site area. Edgcumbe Parkway District (both sides of Davern Street west of Sibley Manor) and north of Norfolk is being developed as housing. Some community commercial may also be included in the future. Hospitality uses may still be appropriate for the sites south of Norfolk, fronting on Shepard Road. The Gateway Vllage proposal encompasses a portion of the Edgecumbe Parkway area (north of Nortolk Avenue and west of Davern), with a horizontally-integrated mix of housing, including senior housing, lodging, offce and retail uses. Fort Road Development Plan Summary 05-90 New muitifamily housing is proposed both east and west of Sibley Manor, including: West Sibley Crescent — 24 two-story duplex or rowhouse uniis with tuck-under parking, overlooking open space; Snelling Place — 50-70 new muitifamily units with ground ievel parking, oriented around a circuiar plaza; Stewart Crescent —150-250 townhouse and rowhouse units oriented around an oval "village green;" and Shepard Road River Bluff Apartments — additional development sites for market-rate mid-rise condominium or apartment buildings when the future redesign of Shepard Road as a parkway eliminates Youngman Avenue as a frontage road. Springfield Terrace — 120 — 200 multifamily units combined with ground floor retail or office uses (mainly at corner locations) on the residential blocks east and west of Springfield Street; buildings would step down the slope from West Seventh to Benson Avenue. Commercial and mixed use infill development is proposed along the frontage of Sibley Manor; on the Wordsworth Avenue block, in combination with rowhouses fronting Wordsworth; and, at the intersection of West Seventh and St. Paul Avenue. The Sibley Plaza shopping center is proposed to be expanded and reoriented to the street. Streetscape Improvements are proposed. The small area plan and the overlay district include fairly detailed standards for streetscape improvements on West Seventh Street. Davern should have a sidewalk on at least one side of the street. In addition, Rankin Street should be improved with a continuous sidewalk, street trees and lantern streetlights. Madison and Alton streets should be improved with a continuous sidewalk. Springfield Street should be improved with a pedestrian crossing of the rail line and with continuous sidewalks on the dlscontinuous street segments. If and when the bridge over West 7`" at Gannon is rebuilt, ensure that there is adequate pedestrian accommodations on the east side of the bridge. Albion Node The Albion, as welf as the Otto, nodes are located about one-half mile apart on opposite sides of the I-35E interchange. The Otto node is characterized by large developable or recently developed sites (River Bluff and the Crosby Lake Business Park), while the Albion node is iargefy developed or protected as open space. The size of the Albion node is limited by ihe I-35E freeway corridor and the steep bluff west of Lexington Parkway. Other physical barriers include Shepard Road and West Seventh Street itself, which is characterized by high speeds and high traffic volumes approaching the I-35E interchange. Recommendations include the following: Extension of the existing bike path to Shepard Road. The preferred route follows Albion across West Seventh to the right-of-way ofAdrian Street (currently a storage area for Highland Nursery) and follows that as far as the Elway Street right-of-way; the route would continue south on Elway Forf Road Development Plan Summary 05 -90 Street to Shepard Road, whese it would conneet with the existing bike path. Th+s altemative is tied to the creation of a new storage and parking area for Highland Nursery on the block between Albion Street and I-35E (see below); and alternative route could follow the sidewalk on the south side of West Seventh from Albion one biock west to the Elway SYreet right-of-way. The City will work with the nursery to define options in relocating parking and storage off of the Elway Street right-of-way. Development accessing Albion Avenue southeast of West Seventh Street should establish curb cuts as far southeast as is practical so as to accommodate queues for the signal at West Seventh Streei. Redevelopment of the biock between Albion Street and I-35E on the south side of West Seventh Street, currently occupied by a gas station/convenience store, abandoned gs station/auto repair, and several single-family houses. Proposed uses include a new storage and parking area for Highland Nursery (a business with expansion needs that cannot be met at its current site). The convenience store would remain. With 27 spaces, this site could also accommodate some customer parking for the U.S. Post Offce directly across West Seventh. Streetscape improvements on Montreal that match those in the Crosby Lake Business Park. These would include continuous sidewalks, street trees and lighting, thus enhancing this street as a bike/pedestrian connection across 35E to the business park. Redevelopment of selected sites, including: medium density townhouses and multifamily housing at the intersection of Montreal Avenue, Lexington Parkway and West Seventh Street that are oriented away from the road; the current post office site (a leased facility) for neighborhood- serving retaii or mixed use; and, the Crosby-Lake Inn, a motei and small restaurant, with muitifamily residentiai or office use, possibly with some limited retail. Pedestrian and traffic safety improvements at the Montreal Avenue, Lexington Parkway and West Seventh Street intersection that include crosswalks, curb bump-outs or other physica! methods of slowing traffic. Otto Node The Otto node includes the new Crosby-Lake Business Park and the large cleared River Bluff (Koch-Mobil) development site, both of them on the south side of West Seventh. Much of the West Seventh Street frontage is occupied by small apartment buildings or single-family houses, as well as small free-standing one-story commercial buildings. It is shaped liked an elo�gated triangle. Because of its Fort Road Development Plan Summary OS-9O direct connection to Shepard Road, Otto is one of the major entry points into the neighborhood from the south. Recommendations include the following: • tJew commerciai and office development concentrated on the river side of West 7th Street. Pockets of isolated single family homes and small, single story buildings with large surFace parking lots are the greatest potentiai for redevelopment New development should not result in a net foss of off-street parking. • On the triangular b{ock bounded by Otto, Mercer and West Seventh Street, new retail and o�ce may be appropriate along the West Seventh Street frontage, with residential above and behind. • Seiective infill housing development on residential biocks on the river side of West Seventh Street on properties that are currently vacant or deemed too dilapidated for renovation. Examples of properties include those on the blocks east of Otto between Stewart Avenue and Shepard Road, which were downzoned from RM-1 (multifamily residential) to RT-1 (one- and two-family residential) to implement the Brewery-Ran-Vew Small Area Plan. • Improved pedestrian connection and streetscape improvements on Otto Avenue, including a continuous sidewalk, street trees a�d pedestrian-scale lighting. As part of the River Bluff development, there should be enhanced pedestrian connections to West Seventh Street, Shepard Road and the river valley. Randolph Node The Randolph node has the characCer of a traditional commercial district, dominated by clusters of brick and stone storefronts and the visually prominent towers of the LandmarklSchmidt Brewery. The diagonal intersections created by two somewhat divergent street grids on the bluff and river sides of West Seventh have created many smali triangular bfocks giving the commercial district a somewhat discontinuous appearance, but providing good visibility to those businesses. The diagonal intersections have created wide pedestrian crossings which in some cases are confusing and challenging for pedestrians. The node is bounded on the bluff side by I-35E, and extends southwest to the Mississippi River; on the east by the at-grade Canadian Pacific rail fine that parallels Grace Street; and on the west by a gradual transition to the Otto node. There are no major physical barriers or breaks between the two nodes. The commercial district extends roughly to Tuscarora Avenue. Recommendations for the three sub-areas on the riverside of West Seventh in the Randolph node incfude the following: • Fountain Cave (Randolph Industrial) Site. Consfstent with the Brewery Ran-View Smafl Area Plan, housing with significant open space and refated uses is the most desirable use of the site. The Fountain Cave site also includes a number of Fort Road Oevelopment Plan Summary .r • a adjacent blocks west of Drake Street. The following principles, consistent with the River Corridor Pfan, should guide any master pian for the site: 1. Restore the street grid, extending existing streets into and through the site; 2. Organize street and block development around a central green "spine" — a major street designed as a linear park — connecting West Seventh Street to the river valley; 3. Cluster the tallest buiidings at the foot of the siope, toward the river valley, continuing the existing massing of the grain elevators and using the slope to minimize visual intrusion into surrounding neighborhoods; 4. Provide multiple views of both the river valfey and the city skyline ftom streeLs and buildings; 5. Include a fuli range of moderate- to high-density housing types, inciuding townhouses, multifamily apartments, senior apartments and live-work units; 6. Provide usable open space and connections to regional trail corridors and open space amenities. One potential development scenario for the site includes approximately 1,500 housing units with all housing types listed above. This development scenario reflects current anticipated land assembly costs; the community would support a lower density if land assembly costs were lowec The tallest buildings and highest densities are clustered toward Shepard Road and the river; senior housing is clustered at the "apex" of the site. The grain elevators could be reused as the support and foundation for 8, 12, or 16-story apartment buildings, thereby avoiding costs of demolition while retaining these historic structures. Live-work units border Randolph Avenue, providing a transition between the industrial uses around the Landmark Brewery and the purely residential interior blocks. West of Drake Street, small-lot single-family dwellings and townhouses would be developed on several blocks with vacant or underutilized properties. adaptive reuse of the historic warehouse/industrial buildings in this area should be pursued. • Randolph Avenue Corridor Randolph Avenue is the only major arteriai connection between the Randolph node and the Mississippi River. The avenue provides a major opportunity for enhancing pedestrian connections to the river, not only for the Fountain Cave area but also for the residential neighborhoods on the bluff side of West Seventh Street. Recommended actions to enhance this connection include: 1, Make Randolph a major view corridor between West Seventh and the River. Restore the sight line of Randolph from West Seventh to the river to allow an unimpeded view. Future development along this stretch of Randoiph must be set back to achieve the sight line. 2. Add sidewalks and bike lanes. 3. Add signage directing people to the regional bike trail along Shepard Road. 4. Make Randolph a"greenway" through tree plantings and boulevard improvements. 5. Preserve the residential character of Randolph on the bluff side of West Seventh Street. Fort Road Development P/an Summary 10 05 -9 D • West Seventh Street Corridor Consistent with the Brewery/Ran-View Small Area Plan, it is proposed to fill tfie breaks in the existing retail nodes and continue to improve the aesthetic character of the streetscape and strengthen the market for existing businesses. tn addition, the West SeventhlRandoiph commercial node is a major neighborhood center and future development should respond to neighborhood needs. Development principles for this coRidor include: 7. Focus redevelopment around the key intersection of the node, West Seventh and Randolph. 2. Maximize connections to the river and the Fountain Cave site. 3. Create new off-street parking for existing businesses, where feasible. 4. Work with business owners as potential developers and retain established businesses that strengthen the neighborhood; 5. Develop or refine design guidelines for the corridor; 6. Look for infili opportunities on other "targeY' blocks. 7. New development shall result in no net loss of off-street parking. The primary focus for redevelopment is between Toronto Street and Osceola Avenue, Randolph and West Seventh; specifically, the proposals are: 1. Complementary uses. A number of traditional storefront buildings on the block would remain. Other complementary uses might include a community centerlmeeting room, a daycare, and convenience retail uses such as a dry cleaner, coffee shop or small gift store. 2. Mixed use. The adjacent block to the west, currently occupied by a bingo hallirestaurant and several residences, has good potential for a mixed-use building of 60 to 70 multifamily housing units, most likely rentaf apartments, with ground floor retaii space of approximately 10,000 square feet. This block is also being considered as a potential site for the new fire station and additional City offices. The site currently has a viable operating business with expansion plans, and the owner plans to continue operating. 3. Shared parking. The northern corner ot the block between James and Osceola, opposite the bingo site, is identified for a potential shared parking lot that could serve existing West Seventh Street businesses. Currentiy occupied by a single-family house (the only residence on an otherwise commercial block), the site could yield about 25 spaces, with two access points, from West Seventh and Osceola Streets. 4. Target areas. Either upgrading or partial redevelopment is proposed for the blocks between .luno and Armstrong Avenues and beiween Watson and Tuscarora Avenues, both on the river side. Fort Road Development Plan Summary 1'f 05 -ga Some existing buildings on these blocks should be retained a�d upgraded where possible; others couid be replaced by small-scale infiil development. 5. Housing shouid be a constant presence in this node, including residentiai units above ali commercial space in both existing and future buildings. 6. Design guidelines would guide future building rehabilitation, additions and new construction within the commercial corridor. The guidelines in Appendix 1 should be used in site plan review of all nonresidential and multi-family buiidings within the nodes of the Fort Road corridor. The following additional guidelines shouid be considered for the West Seventh Street corridor: (a) New construction fronti�g West Seventh Street should be a minimum of two and a maximum of four stories, where permitted by zoning; and (b) Biliboards, where present, should be removed. Removal is most feasible when billboards are deteriorating or damaged. • Island Station Site Proximity to the river and the old power piant building have made potential housing on the site a long-term desire. The island Station site is to be redeveloped as housing. The following amenities and elements should be considered for such development: 1. Preserve the existing Island Station power plant structure. 2. Develop walking paths through the site and connecting to adjacent sites and the river. 3. Develop a marina with permanent slips extending into the river. • Brewery Site The former Schmidt Brewery has long been a major neighborhood landmark and is now a site in transition. Once a regional brewery and employment center for the neighborhood, the brewery complex was transformed into an ethanol operation that is a generator of noise and odor problems for the surrounding neighborhood. The future of the ethanol operation is in question. In Iight of these issues, the community recommends that further planning be initiated on Yne Brewery site. This should consist of a reuse study to determine its land use and development potential. Key issues in the reuse study should include the following: pedestrian and neighborhood oriented uses should be a priority; activities to achieve historic designation should be initiated and any historic buildings should be preserved for adaptive reuse; and the community should continue to be involved in advising the City and the Housing and Redeveiopment Authority in the reuse study Fort Road Deveiopment Plan Summary 12 05 -�'o St. Clair Node The St. Clair node is fairly densely developed, with many historic or potentially historic buiidings on Wzst Seventh Street and the adjacent blocks. The typical West Seventh block pattern, with its frequent intersections, smaii trianguiar blocks and wide pedestrian crossings, continues through the area. There is little, if any, vacant fand in this area. The influence of downtown land uses and the hospital district, including the related traffic, are felt throughout this area. A number of historic buildings, including the National Register-Iisted CSPS Hall and the Kessler & Maguire Funeral Home, are located close to the node. The `Uppertown" residential district, potentiaiiy eligible for National Register designation, is located west of Smith Avenue. Recommendations inciude the following: • Streetscape improvements on Grace StreetlWestern Avenue to connect the School Oistrict Administration offices with the node. These improvements should complement ongoing streetscape improvements on Cliff Street. Improvements should include a continuous sidewaik, street trees and pedestrian-scale lighting. Potentiai infill redevelopment sites on selective infili development sites fronting on West Seventh Street. The larger sites identified for potential redevelopment include: 1. The triangular block bounded by Western Avenue, Superior Street and Goodhue Street with a 2 or 3 story mixed use building; the building could accommodate approximately eight residential units and 6,800 square feet of ground-floor retaii. The site would provide shared parking for the church, the proposed building, and the existing office buildings on the adjacent parcel. 2. The eastern corner of the block between Banfil Street and Goodrich Avenue with a two-story mixed retail/o�ce building; the West Seventh Street frontage west of the St. Clair intersection could be redeveloped on the river side with a hvo-story retail-office building cfose to the corner, and with a multifamily building (maximum of 18 units) closer to the West Seventh railroad bridge. Parking would be shared between the two buildings; and the bluff side of the intersection with a sma11 (5,800 square foot) twastory offce building and adjacent parking. • Creation of a small open space on the liquor store property at the northeast corner of St. Clair and West Seventh. This area could also be used for grocery store expansion. One possibility is consolidating the parking lots of the liquor store and grocery store, sharing parking, to allow for the elimination of the problematic driveway access into the parking lot on the south side of the liquor store. it would also provide an opportunity to convert the paved driveway area in front of the liquor store into a landscaped area, which would improve the aesthetics of the St. Clair intersection. • New development shall result in no net loss of off-street parking. Foit Road Development Plan Summary 13 o5-go City Action To encourage development according to the concepts and recommendations, the priorities of the City should be: • Adopt this summary as an amendment to the Saint Paui Comprehensive Plan. � Adopt zone changes that will encourage development reflecting the concepts in the plan summary. • Collaborate with other agencies and community organizations to implement the recommendations in this summary. • Encourage redevelopment of land in the nodes. • Provide for the development of streetscape amenities along West Seventh Street and within the nodes. • Implement design recommendations as redevelopment occurs. Planning Commission Findings The Planning Commission finds that the Fort Road Development Plan summary is consistent with the Saint Paul Comprehensive Plan and other adopted City policies. Planning Process The Fort Road Development Pian was prepared by a task force and a Randolph Work Group established by the Pfanning Commission. Membership included representatives of the community planning councils for Districts 9 and 15, as well as representatives of businesses and community organizations, the Planning Commission and residents.
