Presenter: John Caner, CEO, Downtown Berkeley Association

Please join us in person for a discussion on downtown and campus adjacent public realm planning and projects.  Mr Caner will discuss the status of downtown’s 3-Legged Strategy – Retail/Public Realm/Residents, including:

• Retail /Activation endeavors/ activity(including retail, pop-ups, cold shell challenges, services, entertainment and ground floor zoning flexibility;

• New Placemaking Projects (including Addison Catenary Lighting, Harold Way, Civic Center Project, and various complete streets proposals and SOSIP funded improvements); and

• Residential Housing (including for-sales condos and new rental housing).

Please join us for this important discussion that provides “lessons learned” as the city considers activation and upzoning in other corridors.
