College Station Medical Urban Core

Integrate a detailed Urban Plan for a 203 acre tract of land into a 1700 acre District Master Plan . While the District Plan proposed an acceptable overall concept for development, the land uses and a street pattern lacked market viability.

The Urban Core Plan “inverted” the major land use pattern to take advantage of pending City capital budget items. The result is a plan that mitigates off-site infrastructure costs, integrates a civi building as an anchor land use and enables the creation of a marketing “window” to the adjoining freeway. A range of development intensities were explored to “bracket” the development potential and set the framework for zoning negotiations with the City.
