City Adopts Placemaking Guidelines
In September 2022, the City adopted Downtown Revitalization Plan and Placemaking Guidelines. The City is currently working on codifying those design guidelines into the City’s Downtown Specific Plan. The City selected Interwest, Inc. as the consultant to prepare the Downtown Specific Plan Amendment, which is anticipated to be complete toward the end of 2024.
South Mall Construction Kicks Off
In August 2022, LAB Holding kicked off construction on approximately 30,000 square feet of new retail, restaurant, and outdoor dining spaces at the southeast corner of Sixth Street and Main Street. LAB Holding is calling this development Southside Social. The revitalized center will feature a brewery, craft beer bottle shop, and small theater featuring live performances, café, restaurant, and outdoor dining! Southside Social is anticipated to open by Summer 2024.
