        o Fire Department Repair
           Building

           This building is used for the
           storage and repair of Fire
           Department vehicles. At this
           time there is little use of the
           waterfront, but the Fire
                                                                                           Lik

         o Harborview Boatel

           The challenge for this site is
           to design a promenade
           section which is compatible
           with both the land and the
           water uses on the site. The
           proposed boatel will be a
           storage building for boats.                                                        . . . . . . . . .
           Boats will be lifted out of the
           water and mechanically
           moved to the boatel
           building. Since this involves
           crossing the promenade with
           boats and boat lifts there is a              ww_
           pedestrian safety issue. The
           shoreline in this section juts
           out prominently into the
           water providing an                  Viezv to7vards Harborview Boatel site

             The Lancaster Street portion
             is Composed entirely of City-
             owned right-of-way. It is         Lancaster Street looking east towards Caroline Street
             accessible forpedestrian use
             thoup there is no sidewalk
             and the street is in need of
             repair. A concept design for
             this street and promenade
             has been prepared
             suggesting widening the
             street by aoqu!ring land to
             the north. This allows the
             alignment of this part of
             Lancaster Street to better

         three alternatives are listed
         below:

         o Through the building                                                                               to

           Direct route; interrupts the

           limits vehicular access to the

           promenade experience.                                       -
                                                                       2
         o Around the building(s)

           Keeps building free of
           promenade; limits vehicular        Thames Street meets water, looking north towards Allied Chemical
           access to the pier unless
           there is a car crossing of the
           promenade; fairly direct
           route.

                                                                                         aw
         o Around pier perimeter

           Provides public access to the
                                                                                               A@__ 2-11
           outermost point of the pier;
           most of the pier; creates a
           very long route.

         The temporary route could
         connect to the south end of
         Caroline Street and continue
         east along the sidewalk of
         Thames Street to Broadway.
         This would require sidewalk
         improvements and signage.         It
         is not the ideal solution be-
         cause it doesn't permit much
         waterfront access. Another
                                              L
         option is to provide dead-end        Terminal Warehouse from the pier
         public access corridors on the
         public streets, Thames, Bond
         and Philpot /Caroline and/or
         to acquire easements across
         the property owned by Con-
         stellation even before they are
         ready to develop. This option
         would allow a walk on the
         water side of their parking lot.

           Ann Street is a public right-of-
           way between the water and a
           privately-owned, commercial
           site. The bulkhead is deterio-
           rating but is not in imminent
           need of repair. A short-term
                                                               7

                                                                                     Ar
           by the widenin@ of the side-
           walk in front of the commer-
           cial property. A long-term
           design solution will be imple-
           mented when the bulkhead
                                                                                                           rM
           has to be replaced.

           Between the foot of Ann Street
           and the completed promenade
           at Harboes Edge, Belts Land-
           ing and Henderson's Wharf is
           a small portion of waterfront
           without a completed prom-
           enade. It is privately-owned         Ann Street looking south from Thames Street
           and requires an easement.
           The adjacent buildings contain
           light industrial uses but will
           most likely become commer-
           cial, similar to the types of
           uses recently completed at
           Ann and Thames Streets. The
              omenade surface is concrete

                                                                      A
           very adequate for a walkway
           until redevelopment is com-
             lete. There is a chain link
                                                                                       X-F
           Fence at either side of this area
           that needs to be removed in
           order to open this up.

           In addition to acquiring an
           easement, there is one minor
           F
             ihysical obstacle to a complete
           promenade connection here.
