Sustainable Neighborhoods: South River Area
Czech Village, Sinclair, New Bohemia and Oak Hill Jackson Neighborhoods
Knit together the New Bohemia, Sinclair, Czech Village and Oak Hill Jackson neighborhoods in a way that leverages community assets and investment for mutual benefit, supports diversity, and celebrates individual character.
Priorities from Public Feedback
- Diversify Czech Village with mixed use retail/commercial with residential on upper floors
- Connect to and complement adjacent areas with the Sinclair area development
- Maintain neighborhood character and identity in redeveloping impacted areas
- Provide incentives for homeowners to rebuild, rehab or relocate near existing neighborhood
Neighborhood Development Opportunities
- Reestablish neighborhood cultural institutions like National Czech and Slovak Museum and African American HistoricalMuseum
- Celebrate significant neighborhood landmarks, like Saint Wenceslaus Church and the clocktower
- Streetscape improvements along neighborhood connectors link New Bohemia and Czech Village to new Sinclair residential district.
- Create new neighborhood assets to catalyze development, like a community/ recreation center or civic open space/ plaza.
- Connect riverfront greenway to residential areas
