Downtown Fresno Specific Plan

Fresno, California

Client: City of Fresno

The downtown of Fresno, California’s fifth largest city, is poised for a comeback after being undermined by decades of sprawl and car-centric planning. Moule & Polyzoides created a specific plan for the 7,200-acre core area, including the Fulton Corridor, the historic Fulton Mall and the surrounding neighborhoods. The Plan focuses on revitalization, infrastructure, sustainability, aesthetics, and economic development, and integrates one of the State’s proposed high-speed rail stations. Incorporating extensive public outreach and input, a comprehensive vision for future development is supported through the Specific Plan, community plan, and a supporting environmental document.
