Working closely with Louisville’s Downtown Development Corporation, MSI Design developed a plan to improve the linkages between new and existing destinations within the downtown core and along the Ohio River waterfront. In addition, the plan simplifies pedestrian and vehicular wayfinding, better utilizes under-highway and under-bridge conditions to create unique, vibrant urban spaces, and develops the framework for a mixed-use district between the new Louisville Arena and Slugger Field. Using a combination of plan diagrams, renderings and benchmark images, a vision was established to enhance connectivity throughout Downtown Louisville. To accomplish connectivity goals, MSI developed several focus area plans. To help prioritize phasing and implementation, each focus area plan also makes recommendations for infrastructure, streetscape, and landscape improvements.
