ADAMSON SQUARE Option II

Option II

This concept relocates interior parking to transform each quadrant into vibrant public plazas. In this concept, 40 feet of paved pedestrian area surrounds each storefront, creating an inviting area for outdoor dining, flexible seating, programming, and more. In the interior of each quadrant, the flexible lawns shown (Minimum 43 by 42 feet) incorporate large-canopy street trees. These spaces could host a variety of event programming. While maintaining a strategic amount of convenient parking in each quad, this concept radically re-envisions Adamson Square as a vastly more usable pedestrian-friendly plaza. This concept includes a total of 34 on-street parking spaces, a loss of 22 spaces.

Proposed

This concept relocates interior parking to transform each quadrant into vibrant public plazas. In this concept, 40 feet of paved pedestrian area surrounds each storefront, creating an inviting area for outdoor dining, flexible seating, programming, and more. In the interior of the quadrant, a 42 by 43 feet flexible lawn could accommodate large-canopy street trees and a variety of event programming. This concept includes a total of eight on-street parking spaces along Rome Street and Newnan Street, a loss of six spaces in this quad.

EXISTING: The northeast quadrant at Adamson Square features a roughly 22-and-a-half-foot one-way drive lane and back out area. This width could accommodate two travel lanes and is excessive to move a single lane of traffic. This quadrant includes 10 outer square parking spaces and four interior spaces.
