Final meeting of phase 2 of the downtown charrette planning process planned for Friday
        
(COLUMBIA, MO) –  A public meeting will be held Friday, June 25, from 4-6 p.m. at Dulany Hall, on the Columbia College campus, providing an opportunity for citizens to review results of community input received during the charrette planning process and comment on preferred choices.
Hosted by Columbia’s Downtown Leadership Council (DLC) and St. Louis-based H3 Studio Inc., the charrette process is designed to transform marginal areas of downtown while maintaining its existing strengths. Work will focus on two general areas: 1) the Broadway – Providence Road intersection, including currently vacant and under-used sites; and 2) the North Village arts district, already experiencing redevelopment and revival. 
H3 Studio set up a charrette studio June 10 in the recently renovated Berry Building, 1025 East Walnut. The community was invited to "drop in" June 21-25 to comment on the concept plans. These results will be reviewed and discussed at the meeting Friday.
