See the Draft Vision for the Saint Paul's Area Click here

City of Norfolk, together with the Norfolk Redevelopment and Housing Authority, residents, property owners, businesses, churches and other interested parties, is in the process of creating a plan for the Saint Paul’s Area.  Given the location of this area, there is an opportunity to both build on current momentum and successes and create an exciting new development, as well as address the needs and opportunities of current residents.  This effort is being facilitated by a team of consultants, led by Goody Clancy, together with Zimmerman/Volk, ZHA, Clark Nexsen and Abt Associates. 

 

Study Area  

The Saint Paul's Area is defined as follows: Saint Paul's Boulevard on the west, Brambleton Avenue on the north, Tidewater Drive on the east, and City Hall Avenue on the south.

Vision Phase (complete)
The Vision Phase kicked off in the Summer of 2007 and is still underway--creating a set of guiding principles that capture the community input and are translated into a graphic representation.  Additional input sessions were held during this phase including a two-day charrette, as well as meetings with stakeholders.  Additional meetings with Tidewater Gardens residents and the broader community are still needed to finalize the Guiding Principles and Vision.  Work products from this phase include:

Draft Plan Phase (underway)
The Draft Plan Phase began in the Summer of 2009 with the formation of the Advisory Committee.  This phase includes drafting a written document that outlines the steps necessary to realize the Vision.  The Draft Plan Phase will include public input sessions on the plan and a mandatory review by the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT 527 Review).

Final Plan
The final plan will have a formal review and adoption process.
