Map of Study Area with Potential Land Use Locations
• In the Employment Center Scenario, it will be important for the core
to be as close to the northern part of the study area as possible. It
also needs to have easy access to Dominion Boulevard, with more
than one interchange, if it becomes a limited access highway. This
scenario is more if Dominion Boulevard becomes an interstate
highway.
• We would recommend mixing the land uses within the employment
core to include a wide range of housing as well as commercial
uses. The densest housing would be located near the employment
core.
Employ-
ment
Center
• Additional town centers can be sprinkled throughout the study area,
but would not have a large amount of regional serving employment.
They would serve as focal points to the communities to make sure
they are walkable.
Higher Density Housing
with transitional uses
• The land lends itself to multiple neighborhoods/communities.
• It will be important to have additional services such as schools,
police, fire, etc. to accommodate a large new population center.
