Broad Street Architectural Infill<br />

Broad Street Architectural<br />

Character & Infill Potential<br />

As <strong>Milliken</strong> grows and continues to redevelop, there<br />

will be opportunities to construct new buildings on<br />

existing empty or underutilized downtown lots. In<br />

order to have the proposed infill projects reflect the<br />

character, scale and massing of existing downtown<br />

buildings, even large infill projects should have<br />

articulated facades and be limited to two stories<br />

(ground floor retail and residential/office above).<br />

The preferred materiality of new buildings is brick on<br />

the sides facing Broad Street, and a mixture of brick<br />

and a hardiplank-type of material on the side streets<br />

and alley elevations.<br />
