The Midtown Redevelopment PUD intends to provide a framework for development standards reflective of the realities and constraints of redevelopment and to establish design standards for infill construction that are appropriate for the neighborhood. The Midtown Redevelopment PUD is located within the 8th Street corridor, an area predominantly developed in the 1970's. The corridor is prime for redevelopment due to the existing compact development pattern, proximity to transit opportunities and interstate access and the favorable central location within the metro area. It is the goal of the developer to create a pedestrian friendly, mixed-use development that expands the commercial opportunities for the corridor and enhances the area by including residential uses that provide a population to support the area businesses and additional choices in housing style, size and affordability for the neighborhood.
