SLC Station Area Planning
Leveraging transit in growing West Downtown
Salt Lake City is growing quickly, and perhaps too much so. To combat placelessness and the growing housing crisis in the City, UTA and the SLC RDA collaborated to develop a master plan for their parcels around two downtown rail stations along with a comprehensive master plan for the west side of downtown. UDA facilitated a public process to make key recommendations for the phasing of civic improvements and specific master plans and parcels to create a walkable, pedestrian-scale neighborhood. Recommendations include detailed street designs and the creation of a new First & Sixth neighborhood center.
