Downtown Tucker Area Livable Centers Initiative Study
Tucker, Georgia
The Tucker Area Livable Centers Initiative (LCI) study focuses on the revitalization of the
Tucker downtown area. The study addresses the opportunity to incorporate high-density development in the downtown Tucker area- providing a mix of commercial, office, recreation, and housing options- as well as improving mobility on the major corridors. The study addresses land use, transportation, economic development, and urban design. Utilizing a 6-month community outreach process, a steering committee of key stakeholders, and an interactive Internet site, the study provides actions and strategies for a more pedestrian friendly, interconnected and mixed-use town center, encouraging an environment of live-work-play that facilitates walking and other alternative modes of transportation. Central design solutions include more greenspace in the downtown, a variety of housing options and diverse gathering spaces for community-wide events.
