North Ogden South Commercial Area Plan
Located along Washington Boulevard, the existing commercial area lacks activity and has limited visibility due to car-centric design, varying development patterns, and sparse connection to adjacent residential neighborhoods. This area offers a unique opportunity to create a memorable new gateway to the city, new amenities for residents, and an opportunity for economic vitality. The plan includes redevelopment options for surface parking and aging commercial buildings into a thriving destination for residents and visitors. A key element is the daylighting of Coldwater Creek to create a new outdoor space for the community. The plan includes improved multi-modal connections to surrounding neighborhoods, thoughtful placemaking, and a market-driven approach to a revitalized commercial area.
