Downtown Riverfront Specific Area Plan 7. REDEVELOPMENT SCENARIOS The redevelopment of Eugene's Downtown Riverfront presents a unique and compelling opportunity at the center of the city. During the master planning process, five use scenarios were developed early in the design process to support the development of a feasible and flexible redevelopment framework on the EWEB property. These scenarios are included in the "Preliminary Development Program Memorandum" prepared by Leland Consulting for Rowell Brokaw Architects. The full memorandum is included in the master plan's appendix. Four refined redevelopment scenarios for the Downtown Riverfront apply the market research and use scenario analysis completed by Leland Consulting to the property's approved redevelopment framework. During the design phase, a redevelopment capacity of 200 -450 residential units was estimated for the redevelopment, with sub -area densities ranging from 24 units /acre to 150 units /acre depending upon location, redevelopment envelope, and building type. Base Scenario Accomplishes a new redevelopment of 250 units across 10 acres (25 units /acre). Includes existing EWEB office uses and the development of Restaurant Row. New construction includes 3- and 4 -story stacked flats with structured and /or screened parking. Townhouses proposed west of the viaduct. Residential use requirement above ground floor along Riverfront Street. Redevelopment Summary: 250 dwelling units, 36,000sf of retail/ commercial, and 118,000sf of existing office. Mixed -Use Neighborhood Focuses on addition of higher- density residential capacity to the Downtown core. Includes 4- to 6 -story stacked flats over some retail with structured and /or screened parking. Restaurant Row is developed and the existing Operations Warehouse is re -used for local retail /commercial. Townhouses, rowhouses and stacked flats over commercial are proposed west of the viaduct. Residential use requirement above ground floor along Riverfront Street. Redevelopment Summary: 404 dwelling units, 68,000sf of retail /commercial, 45,000sf of office, and 118,000sf of existing office. New Industry District Focus on small - scale, craft industries and residential in Downtown core. Includes 3- and 4 -story structures and long -term utilization of interim parking locations. Live -work rowhouses and townhouses located west of the viaduct. Despite a focus on small industry, the housing requirement above the ground floor along Riverfront Street still puts "eyes on the park" along Restaurant Row and riverfront open space. Redevelopment Summary: 85 dwelling units, 116,000sf of retail/ commercial, 175,000sf of office, and 118,000sf of existing office. Civic Center Directs redevelopment effort toward office uses. Includes 3- and 4 -story buildings and presumes a parking structure on Block 7 as well as the need to retain greater areas of interim parking. Townhouses located west of the viaduct. Restaurant Row is developed with riverfront park space. Includes the housing requirement above the ground floor along Riverfront Street still puts "eyes on the park" along Restaurant Row and riverfront open space. Redevelopment Summary: 73 dwelling units, 76,000sf of retail /commercial, 275,000sf of office, and 118,000sf of existing office. 58 ■ Rowell Brokaw Architects
