Five Points Neighborhood Plan
Five Points Neighborhood Plan
New Bern, NC
Mr. Gross forecasted retail and residential market demand and provided strategic redevelopment recommendations for a master plan for the economically depressed Five Points neighborhood. He focused on revitalization of the Broad Street Corridor and on development of an automotive services mall. He also provided recommendations for capacity building and funding for local community development groups operating within the neighborhood. This information was provided to the non-profit downtown organization (Swiss Bear, Inc.) as input to the master plan, prepared by Allison Platt & Associates. Mr. Gross is now completing an update of this work and will recommend specific strategies for implementation of development projects.
