If an answer to a DRI application question references an attached document or addendum, please reference the page number in the answer to the question to allow reviewers to consult the material. DOWNTOWN REVITALIZATION INITIATIVE – DOWNTOWN TEMPLATE BASIC INFORMATION Regional Economic Development Council (REDC) Region: North Country Municipality Name: City of Watertown Downtown Name: Public Square County: Jefferson Downtown Description - Provide an overview of the downtown and summarize the rationale behind nominating this downtown for a Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI) award): The City of Watertown seeks designation as the North Country region’s DRI community so that it can develop an overall long-range plan for downtown redevelopment and then, building on that, gain access to funding to assist in the implementation of that plan. The revitalization plan will include the renovation and adaptive reuse of buildings and historic properties into high- density mixed-use developments, improving the walkability of downtown Watertown, providing corridors of commerce leading to anchor institutions and employers, and capitalizing on the City’s unique riverfront setting. Objectives to enhance the downtown area include preserving a City Center that serves as the primary venue for community and cultural events, providing employment opportunities for business owners and workers and providing goods and services for residents and visitors.

  • Regional and Local Histories of the Byway Area
    Regional and Local Histories of the Byway Area Introduction This section provides a basic historical overview of the Maple Traditions Scenic Byway region and the Byway communities located in Oneida, Lewis and Jefferson Counties. Towns and villages are addressed in the order they would be experienced by a traveler starting in the City of Rome and heading northwest along the Black River to the Village of Dexter. Regional History According to geologists, the entire Black River Valley was inundated by a series of freshwater lakes called Port Leyden, Glenfield, and Iroquois, following the retreat of the last ice age. With the last of these lakes draining about 12,000 years ago, the first aboriginal populations, known as Paleoindians, inhabited the valley approximately 11,000 years ago. Through the next 10 millennia, aboriginal peoples made their living from the Black River. The last of the indigenous populations in the region are known as the St. Lawrence Iroquoian culture. They lived in farming villages inland of the Black River growing maize, beans and squash, hunting, and as well, fishing. They abandoned the region by the early 16th century, for reasons that are still debated among scholars today. Throughout prehistory and even into the early historic period, the Black River Valley served as an important conduit for travel, communication and warfare between the St. Lawrence and Mohawk Valleys. Historic native populations of the region knew the trail well. The byway of today is centuries old, followed first by aboriginal people, then by the earliest European settlers of the region. It continues to function much as it has for 11,000 years, acting as a link between communities of the north and central New York.

By Marc Stephen Coleman Submitted to the Department of Architecture on July 31, 1991 in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Real Estate Development ABSTRACT This thesis analyzes the retail concepts behind the Shopping Arcade and asks whether arcades are viable for today's retail trade. It briefly examines the history of this building type from its invention late in the 18th century in Paris, through its development in the following century, and its virtual demise, at least in the U. S., in the early 20th century. The thesis also looks at the social and economic reasons for the rise of this retailing innovation. The current state of five early examples of this building type in New England is examined.
