A MARQUEE DESTINATION: LIGHTING IMPROVEMENTS AT THE AMP

EXISTING: Seen from the top of the city-county parking deck, the swooping canopy of the Amp creates a familiar downtown landmark and serves as the focal point of this downtown park.

Proposed

Implementing colorful lighting at the Amp could not only make this downtown landmark an even more memorable year-round destination but also highlight this marquee attraction to visitors, with color-changing up lighting that coordinates seamlessly with seasonal events.

AMP ALLEY REVIVED: FROM SLEEPY SIDE ROAD TO VIBRANT PLAZA

EXISTING: This image shows existing conditions at Amp Alley looking toward the city-county parking deck. The steep bank on the left separates this pedestrian mall from the park. The building on the right is actually a historic stable obscured with inappropriate vinyl siding.

PROPOSED, STEP I

Local leaders could draw more activity to Amp Alley by attracting a new tenant to the former stable pictured on the right. This large, open building could be well suited for tenants like a distillery or food hall.

Proposed

This concept transforms the steep bank into an inviting stepped plaza. The restored stable pictured here could provide the ideal location for a distillery or similar business. This concept shows Amp Alley further activated with movable tables and chairs. Exciting features pictured in the Amp park area include a splash pad, howling wolf play structure, slide and elevated stairway connecting to the parking deck.

PROPOSED, EVENING

Delicate string lights, twinkling lights in street trees, and handsome lampposts give Amp Alley an inviting ambiance well into the evening.
