The streetscape construction around the Arlo development should wrap up by the end of this month, allowing for pedestrian and bicycling access again. The ground floor retail space will then be turned over to the tenants for interior build out.

The sidewalk elevations and streetscape improvements might look a bit odd for a few months. They are being constructed to match elevation changes planned as part of the intersection improvement at the railroad crossing, which is scheduled to start later this year. We are also working with the developer to select an artist to create a mural on the south side of the parking deck, facing College Avenue and the railroad tracks.

The Alexan apartment development on Commerce Drive began leasing last month. The developer is installing bicycle lanes as part of a larger street improvement plan along the Commerce Drive corridor.
