INVITE AGES 0 - 16 AND 60+
Today, the Metro Red & Orange line station is dominated by people visting with single purposes - shopping and commuting. Inviting more families and seniors to the station areas is key to creating a diverse and mixeduse district. At the same time, upgrading the quality of the public realm and introducing more attractions can invite visitors to spend time on a greater variety of activities.

AFTER After Burbank has an ADT of 29,612 vehicles per day. Unlike Cumpston, it is an important arterial. This intervention focuses on basic pedestrian safety improvements without altering traffic patterns
A continental sidewalk, pedestrian rapid flashing beacon, landscaped bulbout, and a painted bike lane give pedestrians a place on the street
On our recent site visit our team witnessed two women with a young child attempting to cross the street

A TALE OF of TWO CUMPSTON A Tale TwoSTREETS: Streets: Cumpston
Colors and funky edges liven up a drab security fence
N FAIR AV
Cumpston is a rarely used street on the northern border of the station, presenting an opportunity to be creatively reimagined. A monlthy craft fair can reinforce the Arts Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s identity and activate the empty public space
