1-8 New Brighton Comprehensive Plan | 2040 DRAFT <br />CREATE A SENSE OF PLACE & THE <br />“FEELING” OF COMMUNITY <br />New Brighton has a number of qualities that make it a great community in which <br />people want to live; great schools, active neighborhoods, convenient location, a safe <br />community, a community for all ages, just to name a few. However, New Brighton <br />remains a “hidden gem” in the Twin Cities region. The community would like to <br />see New Brighton shine; creating a sense of place that celebrates the feeling of <br />community in the city. New Brighton needs to invest in endeavors such as creative <br />placemaking, building gateways and marking entrances into the community, <br />highlighting historical sites, and hosting events throughout the year that celebrate the <br />community. <br />CREATE & MAINTAIN STREETS THAT ARE <br />SAFE, COMFORTABLE, & ATTRACTIVE TO <br />ALL USERS <br />Streets are the connective tissue of New Brighton, and as such should be attractively <br />designed to contribute to the positive image of the city. It is the city’s intent to <br />have streets that move vehicles slowly but efficiently through New Brighton, while <br />providing safe and comfortable adjacent routes for pedestrians and bicyclists. <br />CREATE A SENSE <br />OF PLACE & THE <br />“FEELING” OF <br />COMMUNITY <br />CREATE & <br />MAINTAIN <br />STREETS THAT <br />ARE SAFE, <br />COMFORTABLE, <br />& ATTRACTIVE <br />TO ALL USERS
