Exercise #1: What do you imagine for the State Street corridor? • 20 tables collaborated around a large map • All tables identified opportunities for new housing and business, community centers and services, and infrastructure upgrades using “Chip” game pieces
What are some of the most pressing needs for our community over the next 10-20 years? • Where should we be making improvements and investments? • How can this area better serve Salt Lake residents? • What are the big opportunity sites? • What do we want to stay the same?

Major Takeaways from the Mapping Exercise • More Green! • Parks & Open Space, Street Trees, Landscaped Medians
• Higher quality bike & ped infrastructure • Protected Bike Lanes, Pedestrian Lighting, Pedestrian Refuges, New Crossings
• Traffic calming measures & General Traffic Safety Important BUT congestion not a major concern • Traffic Calming, Safety Improvements
• Transit not a major priority • HOWEVER, the cross section exercise conflicts with this finding
Exercise #2: Your Chance to Design State Street • What is missing? Who should the road serve better? • Build your own streetscape!
