90 The river overlook 2/17/2019 12:48 PM 91 The river 2/17/2019 11:04 AM 92 Looks nice.2/17/2019 10:42 AM 93 Not sure yet 2/17/2019 10:22 AM 94 Renovating an historic building, making a destination public place for eating, shopping, gathering, and UTILIZING the views of the river and access to the bike path. Ponce City Market in Atlanta came to mind when I first saw the video about this project. It's a great space with access to the their bike path. We need to take advantage of this river running through town and make more places for the community to gather. Thanks! 2/17/2019 10:17 AM 95 Preservation of the steam boilers and turbines 2/17/2019 9:40 AM 96 Eugene's lack of a riverfront restaurant zone is a tragedy. This proposal helps get us started.2/17/2019 9:12 AM 97 The use of a beautiful, historic building to really enhance & utilize the amazing spot it’s located.2/17/2019 8:55 AM 98 It’s doing anything with a currently terrible location in the middle of town 2/17/2019 8:52 AM 99 The modern design mixed with historical preservation of the space. This is something that would set Eugene apart from many other cities. However, I wouldn’t see myself visiting unless there was a cafe or restaurant or something that you could enjoy while taking in the views of the river. 2/17/2019 8:44 AM 100 The overlook. Use of a great area that is currently an eye sore 2/17/2019 8:36 AM 101 History preservation.2/17/2019 8:32 AM 102 Preserving the integrity of the building and maligning it open to the public.2/17/2019 7:22 AM 103 A public place near the river 2/17/2019 6:42 AM 104 I like the river overlook.2/16/2019 4:22 PM 105 I understand and support the weworkesque design you are trying to follow. But that will not draw people to the facility and neither will an art museum. This should be a young vibrant area of our community. Perhaps a riverfront wall of garage doors that open up to one of Eugene’s biggest asset- the river. I can envision a large open bar with seating encircling it. Showcase our many wonderful breweries and wineries for out of Towners and locals. Offer local farm to table food. We are a green community and have an abundance of fresh produce and grass fed beef. This does not have to be expensive or fancy. With the garage doors open place tables inside and out. Extend a deck out over the river for all to enjoy whether it is from food trucks placed strategically on the grounds or people brownbagging it. Allow people to bring their drinks out to the patio and river overhang. Build it and they will come. Make it stuffy and lackluster and it will be a place that people ride their bikes by, jog by or just visit once. 2/16/2019 3:53 PM 106 Historic pieces of old steam plant and location near river 2/16/2019 12:57 PM 107 Historic preservation elements.2/16/2019 11:46 AM 108 The rooftop access to views of the river and city. Aside from Skinner Butte, Spencer Butte and Hendrick’s Park’s natural viewpoints of our Emerald Valley, our community has access to few other high points to take in the beauty of the river and city surrounding. This is a valuable resource worth sharing. 2/16/2019 11:05 AM 109 Keeping the cool aspects of the plant & the industrial feel. Having a community meeting hub 2/15/2019 2:51 PM 110 the sustainable re-use of the building 2/15/2019 2:45 PM 111 The mix of old and new design elements & integration of food/beverage. community gathering space 2/15/2019 2:39 PM 112 I love that the original structure remains intact & that we're making use of an abandoned space, that it creates an entire new center for activity 2/15/2019 2:26 PM 113 Appreciate the contract of new and old.
