Overview
Timmons Group’s landscape architecture team collaborated with nonprofit partners and architects on a new improvement initiative for the commercial corridor of Six Points in Richmond’s Highland Park community. With assistance of a grant from National LISC, local nonprofits developed a formal plan for the corridor and business owners seeking available funds from the City of Richmond.
The Highland Park Commercial Area Improvement Plan was developed to inspire enhancements to the commercial area and serve as a tool for both retention and recruitment of businesses at Six Points. Community feedback was collected in multiple meetings throughout the process that resulted in a plan that proposes a cohesive identity for the district and makes specific design recommendations for streetscape and façade improvements.
