  • An Urban Mixed-Use Development in Downtown Missoula, Montana Executive Summary
    An Urban Mixed-Use Development in Downtown Missoula, Montana Executive Summary Riverfront Triangle Partners, LLC (RTP), is offering for sale approximately five-acres of property for a mixed-use urban infill project (the Triangle) in the heart of downtown Missoula. The project is located in the Riverfront Triangle Urban Renewal District bordered by the Clark Fork River, Orange Street, and Broadway Street. Providence St. Patrick Hospital is immediately north of the Triangle across Broadway Street. The project is also located in the Central Business District, and will serve as the Western gate- way to downtown Missoula. The Triangle will be supported with over 1,000 parking spaces with a large portion being paid for in collaboration with the City of Missoula using tax increment financing (TIF) and parking revenue bonds. The city intends to use TIF to construct a pedestrian bridge to connect the Tri- angle to McCormick Park on the south bank of the Clark Fork River. On May 8, 2017 the Missoula City Council voted unanimously to conditionally approve the Fox Triangle Land Use and Development Require- ments Agreement. As part of the agreement, the City Council approved vacating a portion of Front Street and Owen Street and RTP’s request to vacate an alley. Approval was also granted to rezone the Riverfront Triangle Special Zoning District to OP1 Open Space and CBD-4 Central Business District. Development must include Residential, Office, Retail, and Restaurant along with the hotel / conference center. The two tracts of property is being offered as a whole or can be purchased separately.

  • Downtown Riverfront Plan
    THE MISSOULA DOWNTOWN RIVERFRONT PLAN ,l~Ul,ll111g", Consultant for the Missolila Redevelopment Ag~ncy City of Missoula. Montana I started my walk at the Higgins Avenue Bridge where a beaver made a home two years ago. That particular beaver is gone but you can spot beaver in the Clark Fork River. Also muskrat. And if you walk along, the bank in early morning or late evening you can spot a "deer. Last Monday I didn't expect to see a deer or beaver or muskrat. I was walking in the middle of the day. I went to see the vegetation- the shrubs and trees and flowers. And the birds of course. Birdlife is part of a river. I think sometimes we forget that a river isn't just water running.•• A river the stature of Missoula's Clark Fork is far more than just water running. But what is it? Is it the sum total of a hundred things? That's what I went walking to see. Cottonwood trees - yes, we all know the Clark Fork has to have cottonwood trees. And willows and red-stemmed dogwood. Without those you wouldn't have the Clark Fork River. Aspen trees, alder bushes, sarvisberry -they belong. I ate three ripe sarvis berries and it was a very satisfying thing to do. Let's have more sarvisberry bushes. The birds can eat the fruit and then they'll leave our strawberries and raspberries alone. I walked through a tangle of clematis, tansy, wild rose. They must belong because evidently they are the home of small birds.
