• Illustrative Animations


Please Note: The graphics below, and the animations to which they link, are illustrative representations of development under the proposed zoning, and do not represent the amount of development expected in the foreseeable future as a result of the action.

The animations illustrate how the proposed zoning regulations for this waterfront would achieve a sensitive transition to the scale of the neighborhood, with buildings of no more than six stories, and shift taller buildings toward the waterfront. The proposal would establish a continuous network of waterfront parks and public access areas, along which small commercial establishments such as cafes could be located.
