power district masterplan & competition

Project Description: This is a large masterplan/urban design of a large 100+ acre site on an industrial brownfield site, which Rocky Mountain Power. There was an initial masterplan that was done in 2021 in a competition that our team won. That team composed primarily of me, a planner, and a landscape architect. This masterplan’s main parti/concept generally remained for the final masterplan, but with a few significant changes. Those changes included a relocation of Rocky Mountain Power’s headquarters, and a new urban civic campus. There was a focus on public spaces, environmental sustainability, urban vibrancy, and inclusivity for all.

Because this is still under a Non-Disclosure Agreement, no renderings or plans are provided at this time, except for these renderings of the immediate area around the planned headquarters campus and from the initial masterplan competition.
