URBAN DOWNTOWN MAIN STREET

This designation is a subset of Urban Downtown Mixed Use above,
focused on the Main Street core area of Downtown. Nearly all buildings
have zero front setbacks and abut the public sidewalk, and multi-story
buildings frame the street on most blocks. The walkable street scene is
“activated” by varied retail storefronts, restaurants and pubs, cultural
venues (e.g., Town Hall Arts Center), historic architecture and
properties, coffee and confections, open-air sidewalk seating areas for
dining, and streetscape and design treatments in the public realm.
City-adopted design standards also influence development outcomes
and building renovations in the area.
Primary Land Use Types

Same use range as Urban Downtown Mixed Use above, but with a
principal commercial focus and residential uses more likely to occur on
upper floors of mixed-used buildings rather than as stand-alone uses.
Characteristics

As a subset of the Urban Downtown Mixed Use category, Urban
Downtown Main Street has the same characteristics.
