  • The Copenhagenization of Nicollet Avenue
    The Copenhagenization of Nicollet Avenue Derek Holmer COPENHAGENIZATION OF NICOLLET AVENUE DEREK HOLMER Acknowledgments I would like to extend my sincerest thanks to my faculty advisor, Gayla Lindt, who has the powers of Wonder Woman. Without her calm demeanor and guidance, this project would have derailed long ago. Thanks are also due to my reader, Carrie Christensen. Her expertise, attention to detail, and encouragement helped keep my eyes on the bigger picture. Finally, I would like to express my gratitude to Katherine Solomonson. Her role as Devil’s Advocate kept my project grounded from day one and allowed my argument to remain based on real issues facing American cities today. I am indebted to each of you. II III COPENHAGENIZATION OF NICOLLET AVENUE DEREK HOLMER Abstract This thesis investigates the potential for Nicollet Avenue in Minneapolis to become a bicycle- and pedestrian-only corridor for a one and a half mile stretch from downtown south to Lake Street. This investigation begins with the imagined, but very possible, scenario that the K-Mart building that blocks the Nicollet Avenue corridor north of Lake Street has been removed. The avenue is examined through the lens of Copenhagenization, as outlined in Jan Gehl’s book Cities for People. These principles are most manifest along Nørrebrogade in Copenhagen, which serves as the primary precedent for this investigation. Key concepts and design elements from this two and a half kilometer (one and a half mile) Danish corridor are identified, analyzed, and translated into a mid-western American context at a scale not yet attempted. The current Minneapolis Bicycle Master Plan (2005) calls for no bicycles along Nicollet Avenue.

    PORT AUTHORITY OF ALLEGHENY COUNTY LIGHT RAIL TRANSIT V.4.0 7/20/18 STATION DESIGN GUIDELINES ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Port Authority of Allegheny County (PAAC) provides public transportation throughout Pittsburgh and Allegheny County. The Authority’s 2,600 employees operate, maintain, and support bus, light rail, incline, and paratransit services for approximately 200,000 daily riders. Port Authority is currently focused on enacting several improvements to make service more efficient and easier to use. Numerous projects are either underway or in the planning stages, including implementation of smart card technology, real-time vehicle tracking, and on-street bus rapid transit. Port Authority is governed by an 11-member Board of Directors – unpaid volunteers who are appointed by the Allegheny County Executive, leaders from both parties in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives and Senate, and the Governor of Pennsylvania. The Board holds monthly public meetings. Port Authority’s budget is funded by fare and advertising revenue, along with money from county, state, and federal sources. The Authority’s finances and operations are audited on a regular basis, both internally and by external agencies. Port Authority began serving the community in March 1964. The Authority was created in 1959 when the Pennsylvania Legislature authorized the consolidation of 33 private transit carriers, many of which were failing financially. The consolidation included the Pittsburgh Railways Company, along with 32 independent bus and inclined plane companies. By combining fare structures and centralizing operations, Port Authority established the first unified transit system in Allegheny County. Participants Port Authority of Allegheny County would like to thank agency partners for supporting the Light Rail Transportation Station Guidelines, as well as those who participated by dedicating their time and expertise.
