The 2016 Space 134 Vision Plan Update, which is scheduled to be brought up at the <a href="http://www.ci.glendale.ca.us/government/agenda_minutes/4A201602236.pdf" target="_blank">February 23, 2016 City Council Meeting</a>, is the result of a series of plans, analyses and public forums which have shaped a more refined look into what a cap park would look like over the 134 freeway in Glendale.</div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u><b>The Vision Plan</b></u><br />
The updated vision plan which would reestablish a connection between the residential neighborhoods north of the freeway and the downtown core through a cap park is described in the revised plan as being comprised of two parts, the Heart (Downtown Park) and the Soul (Neighborhood Park). The following resources were used to help form the latest version of the plan:<br />
<a name='more'></a><ul>
<li><a href="http://www.space134.net/p/community-input.html" target="_blank">public input</a> received during several community outreach events </li>
<li><a href="http://www.slideshare.net/MyGlendaleCDD/transit-recommendations-for-the-space-134-project" target="_blank">technical recommendations</a> for transit design, infrastructure and services</li>
<li><a href="http://www.slideshare.net/MyGlendaleCDD/preliminary-report-space-134-project-implementation-operation-economic-benefits" target="_blank">a preliminary analysis</a> of the possibilities for implementing and operating the proposed project, and its potential economic benefits</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This plan will continue to evolve as the project undergoes more specialized technical studies, as further public input is received and as important questions are addressed relating to engineering, air quality, traffic and noise impacts among other things.<br />
<br />
<b><u>Next Steps</u></b><br />
During the February 23 presentation, the City Council will be asked to authorize the next phase of the project which would consist of a technical feasibility study. The study would address key elements including: design alternatives, traffic, noise and air quality, parking, a cost benefit analysis and more.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The <a href="http://www.la-apa.org/">Los Angeles Chapter of the American Planning Association (APA)</a> recognized the Space 134 Vision Plan with the Urban Design Award of Merit during their annual Awards Gala at the Historic Los Angeles Theater on June 12th. The plan was judged on several criteria:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<u></u><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u><u><b>Originality & Innovation</b></u></u></div>
<u>
</u>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Finding land for parks in urban areas such as Downtown Glendale is difficult to find and expensive to purchase. Space 134 takes an innovative approach, creating a Plan to build a 25-acre park over the 134 freeway, which represents the most promising spatial resource for contiguous urban park space in the City. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Space 134 Vision Plan also presents a visionary yet realistic vision for the cap park, one that is far-reaching in its goals to cap the freeway and phased gradually to build momentum and support. It starts with a series of green streets, widened pedestrian rights-of-way on bridges, and pedestrian and bicycle amenities around an innovative “Green Loop” concept. This allows the community to understand the planning principles behind the cap park.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<b></b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><b><u>Compatibility</u></b></b></div>
<b>
</b>
<br />
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Space 134 integrates and supports Glendale's planning goals, including providing multi-modal connections, creating walkable environments, and increasing the availability and adjacency of public recreational spaces. The most direct implementation of City policy is within the <i>Downtown Specific Plan (DSP)</i>, which proposed a cap park over the 134 Freeway. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It implements policies in the <i>Greener Glendale Plan</i> by providing accessible open space in underserved areas, using sidewalks, greenways, and streets as green spaces. The Plan also calls for an increase in the sustainability of Glendale, which Space 134 accomplishes through providing permeable surfaces, rainwater capture, wind turbines and solar panels throughout the park. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Responding to the <i>Safe & Healthy Streets Plan</i>, the City’s bicycle and pedestrian policy document, Space 134 includes locations for a bike share/station and a bicycle and pedestrian trail network connecting through the cap park into adjacent neighborhoods and increasing pedestrian and bicyclist safety.</div>
<div>
<div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<u><b>Effectiveness and Results</b></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
Space 134 has set a high standard for quality and visionary
planning in Glendale and when implemented will improve the quality of life for the
City’s residents, employees, and visitors.
Effectiveness of Space 134 over time will be measured through indicators
that are health related, socially-based (creating better
neighborhood connections), and economic (increased property values, occupancy
rates, etc.). The project would provide open
space amenities in one of the most under-served neighborhoods in the City. The park would help improve air quality
through filtration of particulate matter from the freeway, filtration of
stormwater runoff, and lowering of temperatures. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<b><u>Engagement</u></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
Space 134 uses an innovative approach to developing both the Vision and Plan; emphasis was on developing the ideas carefully with a dedicated and small interdisciplinary team of urban design consultants, students, and City of Glendale City Staff. <span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;"> </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Space 134 has the potential to play a key
role in the development of Glendale’s urban core. With the cultural and
recreational amenities it provides, the park can catalyze new development while
sustaining a high quality of life for downtown Glendale.The Space 134 Vision looks at the potential for new open space immediately adjacent to the downtown Glendale core by capping the 134 Freeway between Central Avenue and Glendale Avenue and turning it into a 25-acre public space with active recreational uses, passive open space, event spaces and a regional transportation hub.</div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The <a href="http://ui.memberclicks.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=20">Westside Urban Forum</a> recognized Glendale’s proposed Space 134 project at their annual Westside Prize <a href="http://ui.memberclicks.net/design-awards">Awards</a> this afternoon (Friday, June 7, 2013). The Award recognizes projects that demonstrate excellence in addressing the issues of planning for and building a livable future. Accepting the award were, Michael Nilsson and Alan Loomis from the Community Development Department's Design Studio along with the team from Meléndrez, the architecture and planning design firm that worked with the City on the initial project vision.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The Glendale "<a href="http://www.space134.net/">Space 134</a>" project is a concept study for a "freeway cap park" over the 134 Freeway from Central Avenue to Glendale Avenue. The freeway cap park would connect the community to the City's civic, cultural, and business core through public open space and pedestrian and bike friendly trails. As Downtown Glendale moves forward with the 18-hour workday, by promoting the opening of restaurants, bars and nightlife opportunities in the City’s new Arts & Entertainment District, Space 134 will become a key component in furthering that vision.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The initial Space 134 study was funded by a $125,000 grant from the <a href="http://www.scag.ca.gov/">Southern California Association of Governments</a>. The City will apply for additional grants to organize design workshops to further develop the concept plans with interested community members. </span></span><br />
