Key aspects of the projects are:
- Wickham Plaza, a high-density transit-oriented design (TOD) hub at the existing commuter rail terminus
- Redesign of a former rail corridor infrastructure into a community bikeway and linear park; and,
- Mixed use redevelopment of former industrial lands improving livability in the city in a fine-grained, permeable land use pattern.
