715 I am so excited about the idea of having a restaurant/brew pub on the river. Eugene needs this! It would be so nice to take advantage of our beautiful river front areas to have a nice place to gather with friends. I'm honestly very disappointed lately when I try to enjoy the river path for running,walking or bike riding. I don't feel safe and it's so frustrating that people are allowed to camp and leave their garbage laying around the river. I hope Eugene continues to add more nice places to gather with friends in the beautiful scenery we are so blessed with. 1/24/2019 2:33 PM 716 Definitely the overlook of the river. Incorporating the river into design is essential.1/24/2019 2:30 PM 717 The incorporation of historical elements and the use of CLT.1/24/2019 2:29 PM 718 view of the river 1/24/2019 2:20 PM 719 Renderings are great - the space itself seems underutilized and vacant of personality and history. Reminiscent of The Torpedo Factory in Alexandria, Virginia. If going the arts route perhaps include studio space, equipment, etc. Minneapolis/St. Paul has a number of renovated, subsidized spaces (redeveloped industrial complexes) that cater to affordable living and work spaces for artists. 1/24/2019 2:20 PM 720 The existing outer structure.1/24/2019 2:18 PM 721 Preservation of historical site. Mixed-use so commercial and retail space. Attractive to tourists.1/24/2019 2:16 PM 722 Eugene has so few restaurants/cafes/pubs with river views - this is a big opportunity for the Steam Plant. 1/24/2019 2:16 PM 723 River overlook 1/24/2019 2:14 PM 724 The river view 1/24/2019 2:08 PM 725 The preservation aspects and the proposed river lookout 1/24/2019 2:06 PM 726 Is that the plant is being utilized 1/24/2019 2:05 PM 727 Connection to o the river 1/24/2019 2:04 PM 728 Preserving the historic building while combining it with contemporary design.

Id love to have events there too! 1/24/2019 12:24 PM 734 River overlook 1/24/2019 11:12 AM 735 Location 1/24/2019 10:15 AM 736 Just making it look nicer, the area and building are a big eyesore at the moment 1/24/2019 9:53 AM 737 Adaptive reuse of an existing building minimizes new resource use and energy. It also minimizes the production of more greenhouse gasses by maintaining the already embedded carbon content of the existing concrete, etc. 1/24/2019 9:43 AM 738 Integration of the river (views, access, etc.)1/24/2019 9:36 AM 739 the fact that it will remain in tact and be accessible by everyone. It is of historical importance as to many buildings like this are lost 1/24/2019 8:54 AM 740 Having a beautiful river running through our city should be a main attraction. Instead it’s a questionably safe area where people engage in illegal activities and often prey upon joggers and bikers on the path. Our city should clean up the river front area for environmental reasons, and to create a safe and cool place where families and students can go hang out and enjoy the physical beauty of our natural surroundings. While maybe drinking a cup of coffee, look at art, or have a sandwich and a beer. 1/24/2019 8:05 AM 741 Keeping the historical aspects and not negetively impacting the bike trail.1/24/2019 7:28 AM 38 / 128 Comments Sought on Proposed Steam Plant Concept April 24, 2019, Work Session - Item 1
