325 WiFi capabilities. Charging stations, computer plugins. The Peacehealth Bicycle rentals. Secure lockers to store personal items so spontaneous bike rides can happen. 1/31/2019 1:24 AM 326 Office space is the one use that should absolutely be excluded from this entire development area but especially this property! We are trying to create a vibrant place not one that shuts down at 5:00 and doesn't get used on weekends. 1/30/2019 11:54 PM 327 I would like to see jobs created to help our community grow. We lack career opportunities to keep young people in Eugene. It should not become Portland, but Eugene must become more sophisticated. 1/30/2019 9:49 PM 328 Public access, open space, river access.1/30/2019 9:43 PM 329 N/a 1/30/2019 9:17 PM 330 Make it happen. This is important and visible.1/30/2019 8:31 PM 331 Thanks for doing it. Is there a fountain? How about a walk-in ready art studio for a drop in fee? Some of us can't afford craft rooms. And, perhaps a climbing wall indoors? 1/30/2019 8:30 PM 332 I spend a lot of time defending "downtown" ... many of my friends don't go to the library or to what I consider the best of downtown because they are intimidated by the folks that hangout so much.... what to do ... what to do ??? I think the library (the city) is doing so many good things.. and St Vinny's with the storage pods behind the library... seems so kind... I hope it is helping people. I want everyone to enjoy this new development. 1/30/2019 7:54 PM 333 The bike path needs to be incorporated into the building proposal. Also, the USGS has an important river gauge located at the present concrete pier adjacent to the steam plant that would have to be relocated nearby. 1/30/2019 7:34 PM 334 I think it is another great step in the right direction. As a lifetime resident of Eugene I have seen the unprecedented economic growth over the last several decades. It has been tremendous, but created a need for more social and professional spaces as well as similar expansion in other areas such as art and historical value. I love the plan overall. It will greatly compliment the neighboring plans. 1/30/2019 5:49 PM 335 Maintain both views of river and also easy access by bike and foot. Art installations should take advantage of space not available elsewhere, eg big pieces and/or ‘aerial’ pieces 1/30/2019 5:35 PM 336 time line 1/30/2019 5:30 PM 337 Ensure the homeless population does not have access to the site!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1/30/2019 5:21 PM 338 It will be a disaster if homeless people are allowed to camp around it. I noticed, in your photos/drawings, there are no people on the sidewalks with giant backpacks and dogs. 1/30/2019 4:22 PM 339 We need public space that incorporates the river - whether it’s hang out or a formal restaurant. Needs to fit with and honor the natural environment and historic character of the building. 1/30/2019 4:19 PM 340 How to make it a showplace for Eugene instead of a magnet for buskers, beggars, and dealers.1/30/2019 4:16 PM 341 Do it.1/30/2019 3:38 PM 342 Broad appeal is important nice to have business buy in so it is maintained without having city have to foot the whole bill 1/30/2019 3:31 PM 343 Yea! Turn a current eyesore into something beautiful!1/30/2019 3:26 PM 344 -1/30/2019 3:20 PM 345 parking Parking will be a challenge 1/30/2019 2:54 PM 346 parking That having recreational opportunities and social opportunities like restaurants and shops along with open park spaces is what makes people come regularly to a place. I think Hood River did a really good job with their riverfront. They have an amazing park with bike paths and spaces for kids along with restaurants, offices and shops. 1/30/2019 2:05 PM 347 The huge concrete structure supporting the outdoor viewing area is very ugly. I don’t support that look at all. I would want something that blends in more to the natural environment. 1/30/2019 2:02 PM 348 More connection to river. This town needs public boat houses and launch sites. Fly fishers are captivating to watch. 1/30/2019 1:58 PM 349 Want landscape architecture design to envelope the structure 1/30/2019 1:37 PM 79 / 128 Comments Sought on Proposed Steam Plant Concept April 24, 2019, Work Session - Item 1
