Property Description The development site is approximately 17.7 acres at the northeast corner of Main Street and Memory Lane. The proj ect site extends from Main Street on the west to Lawson Way on the east and from Memory Lane on the south to the city border on the north. The subject site is located within Specific Development No. 59 (SD-59) zoning district and has a General Plan Land Use designation of District Center (DC), which permits commercial and residential development. Surrounding land uses include the Main Place Mall and offices to the west; Santiago Park, offices and parking structure to the south; a senior residential development, and offices to the east; and retail, offices and parking structure to the north (Exhibits 1 and 2) . Project Description The City Place land use, planning and design provide a mixture of uses within a common setting. It stresses a people oriented environment where pedestrian and automobile traffic can co-exist on-site to create an experience of urban activity in a safe and high quality setting. The project has been designed with the commercial component oriented to the west end of the site and the residential component on the east. The site has been aligned to allow the development to have a greater presence along all of the frontage streets. The location of the buildings along Main Street, a commercial corridor, provides a link to the corridor and a visual connection to the mall. 758-19
