Development

The Place to Be and Build

Zoning updates in 2009 and 2012 kicked off a renaissance, transforming City Ave from auto-oriented thoroughfare to a pedestrian-friendly destination – and developers are taking notice. Street-level stores, open public spaces, and streetscape and traffic improvements are just the beginning. Join us on the Avenue, where development opportunities beckon. CASSD can help.
