This project arose out of a desire from the Town of North Manchester to improve the quality of its downtown environment. The emphasis is streetscape improvements.
The Design Team consists of a Steering Committee made up of North Manchester citizens and the landscape architecture firm of Rundell Ernstberger Associates, L.L.C. Acting together, a vision for the downtown improvements project was formed. Some of the general goals established by the Design Team include the following:
- Community Involvement
- Responsiveness to the Unique Character of North Manchester
- Laying a Framework for Connectivity
- Highlighting the Revitalized Building Facades
- Providing Pedestrian Amenities
- Creating a Balance between the Pedestrians and the Vehicle.
The engineering for the project is provided by Lawson and Fisher Associates P.E..
Construction is due to begin August 13, 2012.
