Colorado Boulevard Pilot Plan - Eagle Rock, CA

The Colorado Boulevard Pilot Plan project was funded through grants obtained by the Eagle Rock Community Preservation and Revitalization Committee and was a joint project with the Eagle Rock Neighborhood Council through the Los Angeles Department of Neighborhood Empowerment. This project includes the facilitation of a community based long term vision for the Colorado Boulevard corridor between Lolita Avenue and Glenwood Avenue within Eagle Rock. The planning effort included extensive outreach, visioning and economic and development feasibility analysis toward the creation of both short term and long term strategies for the transformation of the core of Eagle Rock into a vital mixed-use neighborhood where people live and work as well as shop, worship and have fun. The emphasis of the effort was on parking and in-town housing on the philosophy that critical mass in the form of visitors and inhabitants is what creates place.
