1 View Looking East on Rivers Street at US 321 Proposed Mixed-Use Redevelopment at the Campus Entrance The proposed development replaces the existing single and two-story development with ground level retail and upper level housing for faculty, staff, or students. Some limited parking is accommodated to the rear and in tuck-under garages.

2 Redevelopment of the Corner of Depot Street and King Street Conceptual redevelopment of existing single story building as 3-story mixed-use buildings The proposed three story buildings include ground level retail space that wrap the frontage of both King Street and Depot Street and could contain either upper story residential or office uses. The significance of the clock on the corner are a nod to the importance of Depot Street as a gateway from the campus to the downtown.

3 Infill Development at Waters Street & Howard Street Conceptual Infill Building using a Contemporary Styling Because of the downhill slope from King Street to Howard Street, a 3 or 4 story building along King Street translates to a 5 or 6 story building along Howard Street. This image suggests the use of a contemporary style that reflects an interface between the campus buildings along the south side of Rivers Street and the simple historic facades along King Street.

4 Infill Development at Waters Street & Howard Street Architectural Alternatives The images on this page represent a wide variety of architectural treatments for the facades of 5-6 story residential or mixed-use structures.

5 Mixed-Use Redevelopment along the greenway on boone heights Proposed Mixed-Use Redevelopment on Boone Heights The proposed development replaces the existing single story commercial development with a 4 story mixeduse building with 16,000 square feet of retail on the ground level and up to 60 units above In addition, it moves the building 25 feet further from the floodway and suggests the opportunity for additional bioremidiation within that setback. A parking deck is integrated in the building structure to provide parking for the entire site.

6 Driving Range Redevelopment Concept Infill Housing with some limited mixed-use The proposed development provides for student housing, a large common lawn, and secluded private lots nestled in the woods on the current driving range at the intersection of NC 105 Extension and Beverly Heights Avenue/Horn Avenue.

7 INfill Development at Kmart on Blowing Rock Road INfill development that creates a more walkable environment Using 32 spaces from the front of the existing Kmart Shopping Center, this outparcel development shows how a 3 story mixed-use building can greatly enhance the pedestrian realm of a busy public street. The proposed development illustrates 10,000 square feet of ground level retail space and 15,000 square feet of 2 nd and 3 rd story office space.
