rural community streetscape creates new kind of shopping experience<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

named after a rock ledge on the nearby big nehama river, falls city is strategically located halfway between kansas city and omaha in the southeast corner of nebraska. this once-flourishing railroad<\/a> community experienced a steady population decline beginning in the latter half of the 20th<\/sup> century as new interstates<\/a> diverted commerce away from the area. while the rock ledge has long since vanished with the ever-changing flow of the river, the city is proactively taking strides to reinvigorate community pride and reignite investment in their still-popular business district<\/a>.<\/p>\n

they began these efforts with the commission of a downtown revitalization plan<\/a> in 2010. from this study sprang numerous objectives for improving the downtown business district while still maintaining many of the town\u2019s old-world charms. one prominent feature is the north\/south roadway<\/a> known as stone street which runs through the business district. because this cobblestone brick street is extremely durable and provides character to the downtown, revitalization efforts in this area would focus on adding beautification elements and improving the walkability<\/a> of the district.<\/p>\n

snyder & associates was selected by the city to provide design and construction services for the stone street revitalization phase ii project. funded in part with community development block grant (cdbg) monies<\/a>, this project is a continuation of the city\u2019s downtown revitalization efforts that began with phase i, located on stone street between 17th<\/sup> and 18th<\/sup> streets. phase ii, extending along stone street between 16th<\/sup> and 17th<\/sup> streets mimics enhancements in the previously completed portion. it incorporates similar beautification elements, including landscaping bed areas<\/a>, decorative railings, and other amenities.<\/p>\n

the project creates both an aesthetically pleasing and functional environment along the stone street corridor, providing pedestrian gathering spaces, landscaped planting beds that add enhanced color and depth, and ada accessible walkways throughout. our team developed staging strategies that allowed for continued tenant and business access and functionality for front door deliveries throughout the project. snyder & associates acted as the project designer, assisted with project bidding, and provided construction administration services through project completion. other key elements included:<\/p>\n
