The City of Hemet borders the City of San Jacinto at Esplanade Avenue; a key east to west traffic corridor. Major transportation corridors in the vicinity include State Routes (SR) 74 and 79. In Hemet, SR-79 overlaps SR-74 following it eastward for a few miles before heading north again through San Jacinto (Figure 1). Between 2000 and 2016, Riverside County’s population increased by 52 percent whereas the total population of the City of San Jacinto increased by 23,877 to 47,656; a population growth rate of 100 percent. During the same period, the City of Hemet’s population increased by 21,258 to 80,070; a population growth rate of 36 percent (Southern California Association of Governments [SCAG], 2017a and 2017b). The Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC) has approved the realignment of SR- 79 from Domenigoni Parkway to Gilman Springs Road that would alleviate the existing meandering route through the downtown areas of Hemet and San Jacinto, resulting in a more direct north to south route through the San Jacinto Valley (2016). Although it is uncertain as to when or if the project would proceed as planned, if constructed, the proposed SR-79 realignment would traverse Esplanade Avenue near the intersection of Warren Road (RCTC, 2016) (Figure 2). The regional transportation system needs to be expanded to accommodate anticipated future growth to avoid unacceptable levels of traffic congestion and related adverse impacts (RCTC, 2016). The City of San Jacinto, in cooperation with the City of Hemet, is proposing to construct Phase I of Esplanade Avenue Widening Project (Phase 1 or Proposed Project) which would widen Esplanade Avenue from Warren Road to Sanderson Avenue, approximately 1.5 miles, from two lanes to four (Figure 2). To widen Esplanade Avenue, the City of San Jacinto would acquire right-of-away (ROW) frontage on the north side of Esplanade Avenue from residentially used properties and agricultural operations but would not be displacing anyone or taking any residential structures.

  • Boulevards and Parkways Seattle Open Space 2100 Boulevards + Parkways Diego Velasco
    Boulevards and Parkways Seattle Open Space 2100 Boulevards + Parkways Diego Velasco Ocean Parkway, Brooklyn in 1890 - Jacobs, Macdonald, Rofe, The Boulevard Book, 2002 Photo Jacobs, Macdonald, Rofe, The Boulevard Book, 2002 A multiway boulevard is a “ mixed-use public way that is by its very nature complex” Alan Jacobs, 2002 A boulevard or parkway is a wide urban street with tree-lined sidewalks and often multiple lanes of both fast and slow moving traffic. Boulevards are usually pleasant and grand promenades, flanked by rich, monumental architecture and supporting a variety of street uses. They are often “monumental links between important destina- tions.” 1 More importantly, boulevards can be open space systems that serve multiple functions at once: movement of traffic, provision of green space in the city, relief of congestion in overcrowded areas, accommodation of pedestrians and bicycles, and the nurturing of vital street life and activity in the city. Boulevards date back to the 16th century, when medieval towns abandoned their fortified walls and converted them to tree-lined walkways for public recreation. Cities like Amsterdam and Strasbourg were among the first to develop obsolete ramparts into pleasure promenades. In 1670, Louis XIV abandoned the walls of Paris and replaced these with promenades that served as the parade grounds of aristocrats and the well-to-do. These were also known as cours or allees, such as the Cour de la Reine, which extended alongside the palatial gardens of the Tuileries.1 In the mid-19th to early-20th century, boulevards came to be associated with large- scale planning efforts, such as those of Napoleon III and Baron Haussmann in Paris or City Beautiful movements in the United States.
