Encourage Zero-Lot Line Buildings to Strengthen New Neighborhood Centers

Washington, IL
Encourage Zero-Lot Line Buildings to Strengthen New Neighborhood Centers
Description:

The Square is a cherished, historic, place. It can also teach us lessons about creating similar spots elsewhere in the community.
One of the Square’s prominent characteristics is the assembly of zero-lot line buildings (no setbacks). By coming closer to the street they create enclosure that gives a place a vibrant, urban, downtown feel. Encouraging this type of development to occur in other parts of the City can enable new centers to emerge and be enjoyed by community members that live close by.
