  • Story Wall Completed As Part of Ped Mall Project
    Installation of 'A Mark was Made' story wall completed as part of Ped Mall project A story wall entitled "A Mark was Made" has been recently installed in the Black Hawk Mini Park area of the Downtown Pedestrian Mall. The wall illuminates the impact that 17 Iowa Citians have had on the City from the 1830s until today. The piece is located in the southwest corner of the Black Hawk Mini Park of the downtown Pedestrian Mall. it is adjacent to the Paul Hellen Building, which houses the Iowa Artisans Gallery, and the 110 S. Dubuque Street building, home to Buzz Salon. The wall was created to become an evolving acknowledgement celebrating the leadership, activism, and creativity of those who have influenced the Iowa City community and beyond. Constructed of limestone faced blocks, The Story Wall features plaques with the names and accomplishments of local leaders of the past and present. The wall is also adorned with metallic silhouettes of birds. The honorees were selected by soliciting the general public for their suggestions. Over 80 individuals were nominated through an online poll conducted in October and November of 2017. A committee of local historians, University of Iowa representatives, and downtown business owners then reviewed the list and selected a balance of honorees that represent Iowa City over the years in areas related to discovery, education, commerce, culture, and community. The complete list of those honored: 1830s: Cyrus Sanders- Discovery Early Johnson County surveyor described pioneer life in Iowa City. His farmhouse remains at 2040 Waterfront Drive. 1850s: Martha Reno- Education African American woman who fought racial inequality and school taxation when her daughter was not allowed to attend.

  • The Experiment of American Pedestrian Malls
    The Experiment of American Pedestrian Malls: Trends Analysis, Necessary Indicators for Success and Recommendations for Fresno’s Fulton Mall Cole E. Judge This research paper is a unique contribution for the Fresno Future Conference put on by Dr. Kharbawy at Fresno State University and has not been published elsewhere. S t r o n g C i t i e s , Strong Communities Downtown Fresno Partnership 559- 4 9 0 - 9966 1 0 / 1 1 / 2 0 1 3 Abstract This report is intended for the Downtown Fresno Partnership and its stakeholders to analyze the trends of American pedestrian malls over the last 50+ years to help inform the future of Downtown Fresno’s Fulton Mall corridor. The report distinguishes between pedestrian malls and transit/pedestrian malls, taking specific interest in the purely pedestrian malls that were installed in the 1950s and 1960s. Some of the key findings from our research analysis include: Pedestrian malls in the United States have an 89% rate of failure. Most have been removed or repurposed. Only 11% have been successful. Of the 11% successful pedestrian malls, 80% are in areas with populations under 100,000. Certain indicators need to be present for a pedestrian mall to be successful in the United States: near or attached to a major anchor such as a university, situated in close proximity to a beach, designed to be a short length in terms of blocks, in a town/city with a population under 100,000, and/or located in a major tourist location such as Las Vegas or New Orleans.
