The east side of Willamette is generally in office and commercial use from 19th north. Between 19th and 24th is a row of single family residences, except far an office use at the corner of loth. Across 20th is also an office use, south of which are mu1 ti pi e-family dwe11 i ngs . Moving southward, Civic Stadium and the Parkway Willamette complex reach to 23rd. 23rd to 24th Place is residen- tial, except for the northeast corner of 23rd Place and Willamette which is in office use. South, across the street on 23rd, is another office use, The remainder of Willamette on both sides is primarily commerci a] extending beyond 29th Avenue. This study recommends that the lot an the southeast corner of ~1i11amette and 24th P1 ace be rezoned to General Office from C-~ in order to preserve the soft transition from the residential uses north of 24th Place to the commercial uses south of the subject parcel. Land use i n the block bounded by 19th, 20th, oak and Wi 11 amette i s 1 ow-density residential except for the office use mentioned above. The southeast corner of the next block northward is low-density residential, while the remainder of the block is in commerci a1 and office uses, The southeast corner is also the subject of a recommendation, namely, that the Metro Plan be refined by this study to support the continuation of the medium-density zoning which is applied to these parcels. Property on the east side of Dak Street is residential from the alley south of 18th to Civic Stadium. Like the zoning, the area north of 18th between Dak and ~1i 11 amette i s i n commercial and office use. Planned hand Dse The Metro Plan.Diagram sets out three general land use categories within the study area, Like Zoning, these categories generally reflect and support existing uses. The Metro Plan Diagram indicates a large commercial node in the 19th to 17th, Willamette to Dak area and residential uses along Willamette from 19th to 24th Place. The east side of Willamette is designated for medium-density residen- tial uses, and the west side for low-density. The area south of the study area, on bath sides of Wi 11 amette i s designated for commerci a1 use. This study recommends that the medium-density residential designation for the Schaal District-owned Civic Stadium and bus garage be supported. The reasonin 9 is two-fold. Pirst, the eventual use of the site for medium-density residen- tial use supports the compact urban growth form concept of utilizing the ex~ sty ng ~ nfrastructure such as sewers and roads . The second reason i s that residential use in this site is compatible with surrounding residential uses to the north, south and west. Lam a Sumrnar In general] the existing zoning and planned use as indicated on the Metro Plan Diagram are compatible, with one large exception. The Plan Diagram indicates law-density residential uses on the west side of Willamette, enerall from 24th P ~ 9 , Y lace to 19th Avenue. This same section along W~1lamette ~s zoned R-3 far Page 4
